IdleDev

What it does

Get paid while your AI agent thinks. IdleDev runs one opt-in, clearly labeled sponsor sidebar beside your AI coding agent while you work. 65% of ad revenue goes to you. No popups, no browser, no interruption, and we never read your code, files, or prompts. Works with Claude, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, and more. Install in 30 seconds, earn from impressions and clicks.

IdleDev pays developers for the idle seconds their AI coding agents spend thinking. A live ad marketplace for AI agent sidebar sponsorships.

Advertisers reach developers inside the editor they already use. Developers earn every time their AI agent pauses. One live marketplace, no middlemen, 65% to devs. Advertisers see demand-side proof. Developers see how much idle time is worth today. Same open market for both. No code leaves your machine. No prompts. No file paths. Just a token and a tick. Claude Code hits a tool call, network wait, or thinking step. Sends only your device token plus an anonymous targeting hint. Top ads are ranked by IdleDev's ad-market and one winner is picked. Sidebar shows one sponsored line. Cycle restarts the next tick. Brand, headline, link. Live preview matches the real sidebar render. From $1 to…from idledev.xyz

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes▲1,181

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
