What it does

Paybond CLI is new: one command line for safe AI agent spending, in TypeScript and Python. Run paybond login to get into sandbox in minutes. From there: scaffold paid-tool guardrails with paybond init, wire Claude, Codex, or any MCP host with paybond mcp install, and validate credentials and agent setup with paybond doctor. Every command supports JSON output for scripts and coding agents. Same rules everywhere: budgets, approval before spend, outcome checks, and audit-ready records.

Kit CLI for TypeScript and Python: copy one offline command, then sandbox login, init, MCP install, agent middleware, status/control, doctor, and JSON automation.

One command tree for login, middleware run binding, guardrail scaffolding, MCP setup, post-login status and control, diagnostics, and JSON automation. TypeScript and Python share the same flags, envelopes, and release contract. npx -p @paybond/kit paybond dev loop --offline Offline Kit loop: authorize spend → execute tool → verify evidence. No account. Ready for a hosted sandbox? Start free Sandbox · Agent middleware · Compare plans Staged path from offline rehearsal to a sandbox smoke. Copy each step; skip ahead only when you already have credentials. Rehearse authorize spend → execute tool → verify evidence with no API key. Authenticate with tenant-scoped sandbox credentials.

    Hi HN! Smooth CLI (https://www.smooth.sh) is a browser that agents like Claude Code can use to navigate the web reliably, quickly, and affordably. It lets agents specify tasks using natural language, hiding UI complexity, and allowing them to focus on higher-level intents to carry out complex web tasks. It can also use your IP address while running browsers in the cloud, which helps a lot with roadblocks like captchas (https://docs.smooth.sh/features/use-my-ip).

    Hi HN, i am Dimitris, I have been using Claude Code and Codex agents, for some time now from the beggining i had been using them from inside my terminal mainly for coding.

So for the past months I built OtoDock. Its a…

  • 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!
