Lyra

Keyboard-first app switching for Mac

What it does

Lyra is for Mac users who know exactly where they want to go next. Instead of chasing Command-Tab’s shifting order or opening a full launcher, put daily apps on fixed shortcuts: Dock apps, custom app rows, Quick Switch, window cycling, Smart Cycle, Double-Tap Recall, App Peeking, Long Press to Quit, and per-app input methods. Built for tiny context switches that happen all day. Private by design: no account, no cloud sync, no analytics.

    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…
