What it does

As AI workflows scale, prompt management turns into chaos. The PBOM specification is an open-source standard to track, version, and secure your AI prompts, models, and parameters—bringing supply chain security to agentic code.

Open specification and lightweight SDK for PBOM (Prompt Bill of Materials), tamper-evident audit trails for LLM interactions - EqoAI/pbom-spec

PBOM is the open standard for tamper-evident LLM audit trails. This package is the reference implementation. PBOM (Prompt Bill of Materials) is an open JSON-LD format for recording LLM interactions as tamper-evident records. Each record captures identity, prompt fingerprints, model metadata, response fingerprints, telemetry, and hash links to prior records. Security model. PBOM provides tamper-evidence relative to an external anchor . Chain linking makes in-place modification and mid-chain deletion detectable on their own; detecting deliberate rewriting or truncation of the chain requires holding one record hash outside the .pbom/ directory. Records are unsigned in v1.0.0 — the chain proves…from github.com

    Hello HN, We built Promptrepo to make finetuning accessible to product teams — not just ML engineers. Last week, OpenAI’s CPO shared how they use fine-tuning for everything from customer support to deep research, and called it the future for serious AI teams. Yet most teams I know still rely on prompting, because fine-tuning is too technical, while the people who have the training data (product managers and domain experts) are often non-technical. With Promptrepo, they can now: - Add training examples in Google Sheets - Click a button to train - Deploy and test instantly - Use OpenAI,…

    PMB is a local-first memory system for AI coding agents, running on MCP and storing data with SQLite and LanceDB. It preserves project context, decisions, and preferences across sessions and tools. I created it because coding agents frequently lose valuable context between sessions, especially on long projects. So, I'd love feedback from those who use coding agents regularly. What do you think should be auto-remembered versus what should always need explicit confirmation?

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  • A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

    Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
