Full Stack Starter Repo Optimized

Hi everyone! I've been loving building with AI, and over the past few years I've been leaning more and more into Typescript (and bun). My team at inference.net is constantly trying to get more leverage out of AI and find ways to setup our codebase to be able to increase the level of correctness that our AI is able to write code at. This starter repo is a very opinionated way to lay out a repo to lean into AI heavily. It leverages Cloudflare Workers as a deployment target for the API (my goal is to never have to deploy an API on a AWS/Azure/GCP server ever again unless I get to a…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi everyone! I've been loving building with AI, and over the past few years I've been leaning more and more into Typescript (and bun). My team at inference.net is constantly trying to get more leverage out of AI and find ways to setup our codebase to be able to increase the level of correctness that our AI is able to write code at. This starter repo is a very opinionated way to lay out a repo to lean into AI heavily. It leverages Cloudflare Workers as a deployment target for the API (my goal is to never have to deploy an API on a AWS/Azure/GCP server ever again unless I get to a scale that absolutely requires it). I'm also a big fan of tRPC for its type-coupling between the backend and frontend (you can also use Next App Router to get the same benefits). Some key properties of the project: - Its a monorepo, so everything the AI needs to see is in one place - Very heavily leans into Taskfile (similar to Makefiles) to give the AI commands it can run to do complex tasks that give it feedback on its code (like linting/formatting/running the project/generating migrations) - Uses strict typing to give the AI a strong feedback loop on the code it writes - Uses the repository pattern to be able to easily swap out implementations for persistence - Uses bun for its ease of use - Leverages DI to allow configuration to be injected so it can easily be overridden when deploying to Cloudfalre Workers - Has a very opinionated way to leverage markdown documents to give the AI strong context on how and when to do things - Can be run end-to-end locally with zero external dependencies *I'm looking for feedback.* Please don't hold back, tell me where you think it can be simpler (one area is maybe swapping out GoTrue for better-auth). And if there are patterns that you use to get more leverage and correctness out of AI, I'd love to learn about them! Thank you for checking it out :) - abe

    Nous – Open-Source Agent Framework with Autonomous, SWE Agents, WebUI2024 · github.com · ▲155

    Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

There's a lot of minor improvements to be made, and some are already listed in the Github issues. Let me know what you think and feel free to try it out.

    Composable middleware for LLM inference Optimization PassesMar 2026 · github.com · ▲7

    Hey HN, I've been building AutoAgents, an AI agent framework in Rust. Today I'm sharing a feature I haven't seen done well elsewhere: composable middleware layers for LLM inference pipelines. The problem Every agent framework lets you swap LLM providers. Almost none of them give you a structured way to enforce safety, caching, or data sanitization in the inference path itself. You end up with guardrails as application-level if-statements, caching bolted on as a separate service, and PII handling as a "we'll add it later" TODO that never ships. This gets worse with local models. Cloud APIs…

    Making an open source project regrouping the most interesting AI APIs2023 · github.com · ▲8

    Hi, I'm working on a project that regroups all best AI (AIaaS) from different providers (GCP, AWS, Azure, DeepL, etc.) in one API (https://github.com/edenai/edenai-apis). I've got asked the question : why aren't you regrouping Open Source models (instead of proprietary APIs) into one repo? Well because it doesn't make sens to deploy and maintain large pytorch (or other framework) AI models (especially for document parsing, image and video moderation or speech recognition) in every solution that wants AI capabilities. So using APIs makes way more sens. Deployed OpenSource…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…
