GETadb.com – every GET request creates a DB

Hey HN! We made GETadb.com, so it's easier to get agents to build you full stack apps. You don't need to give them any credentials. Just by loading a GET request, they get access to a database, a sync engine, and abstractions for auth, presence, and streams. To see what the agent sees, you can load https://getadb.com/new There's two fun things about how it's implemented: 1. If you curl the home page, it the agent content rather than human content. We do this by detecting the 'Sec-Fetch-Mode' header. It's not perfect, but gets the job done for Claude Code et al. 2. For an agent…

In plain words

GETadb.com provides AI agents with instant access to a backend infrastructure for building full-stack applications. By making a single GET request, agents receive a database, sync engine, and built-in abstractions for authentication, presence, and streams—without requiring credentials. The service detects agent requests through HTTP headers and delivers agent-specific content, enabling tools like Claude Code to develop complete applications with minimal setup.

From the sources

Your agents shouldn't have to ask for your login info to build apps. Get fresh credentials by curling getadb.

Got an idea for an app? Type your idea out. Copy the prompt, and your AI has all it needs to build you a full-stack app. Pass this on to your Claude, Codex, Opencode, Pi, or your favorite agent. When your AI fetches getadb.com/guide , it gets the credentials for a full Instant backend. This includes a relational database, a sync engine, and abstractions for auth, presence, and streams. Your agent can build your app and won't be blocked with sign-up screens or dashboards. Once you're happy with your app, you can simply claim it with npx instant-cli claim . Are you an agent? Your human wants you to build an app with Instant. curl 'https://www.getadb.com/guide' for credentials andfrom getadb.com

    Hey HN, I noticed there are 1,000+ MCP skills on GitHub with zero way for creators to charge for them. So I built Agent37. Selling Claude skills today means asking customers to download your skill, set up Claude Code on their laptops, configure MCP servers, and pray it works. No trial, no updates, often you're just handing over the source. Agent37 lets creators upload a skill, share a link, and anyone can try it instantly (no Claude account needed). Built-in Stripe, creators keep 80%. Looking for feedback on the approach. Would you use something like this?

    Every second thing I build needs to access the web, and I was frustrated with not finding something that just works all the time. With my team, we built this because I wanted to enable access to extremely difficult websites and apps for every AI agent. We have solved this cat-and-mouse problem with self-healing built in. It's one API to get data from hostile sites, and it can do easy sites too. You POST a URL and get back Markdown, JSON, HTML, a screenshot, or all of them. That same call handles anti-bot, proxy rotation, JS rendering, persistent authenticated sessions, and schema-based…

    Agent.email – sign up via curl, claim with a human OTPMay 2026 · ▲99

    Hi HN! We're Haakam, Michael, and Adi from AgentMail- a ycs25 company. We give AI agents their own email inboxes. Recently, we ran an experiment called Agent.Email. It's a signup flow designed specifically for AI agents instead of humans. The inspiration came from a few comments we received when we did our seed launch a few months back. They all came from the very apt observation that agents not being able to sign up to a product made for agents without human credentials was ironic and unideal. This is basically the thesis we built AgentMail on: The internet was made for humans exclusively,…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
