NetCopilot

Hi HN, I’m a network engineer and I built NetCopilot to solve a problem I kept facing in real workflows. When troubleshooting, I constantly switch between terminal sessions, docs, and AI tools just to understand what’s happening. So I built a terminal (SSH, Telnet, Serial) with AI built directly into it. It reads command outputs and helps explain issues like BGP problems, routing issues, etc — without executing anything automatically. The goal isn’t automation, but assistance while staying in control. Still early and I’d really appreciate feedback from people working in networking, DevOps,…

NetCopilot launched on May 12, 2026 with 3 votes, #3,449 of 20,538 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches.

What it does

A modern SSH, Telnet & Serial client for network engineers — with ARIA, a built-in AI agent that connects to Cisco, Juniper, Palo Alto & more, diagnoses issues autonomously, and delivers root-cause fixes. Free for Windows & Linux.

In the maker’s words, at launch

  • Smart model routing directly in Claude, Codex and CursorJun 2026 · github.com · ▲216

    We built a model router that plugs into coding agents (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, etc.) and intelligently sends requests to the best model to serve them. Here's a quick demo of running it locally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isKhAyivtfM. At Weave, we write most of our code with AI, and it's been getting more expensive. This came to a head when Opus 4.7 was released and, thanks to its tokenizer changes, our costs shot up. We knew we didn't need Opus for everything but we didn't want to lose out on the intelligence for the cases where you really need it. So we decided…

    Hey HN, This is my take on the agent harness. Everything on an isometric map. Agents are grouped into "buildings" that run in a sequence or a loop; e.g., the CodeForge has an agent that writes a PRD, another one that implements, and a third that reviews. Everything is customizable, you build your own buildings/teams however you want. It's a Tauri app, really light (about 8x less energy than the closest competitor I benchmarked, so it actually runs from a coffee shop on battery). It's macOS only for now, but ping me if you are willing to test the Windows or Linux version. I've been…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • 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…
