RawLens
Advanced Formatting for Messy JSON from Anywhere in Chrome
What it does
RawLens is the new focused release of Log Viewer: advanced formatting for messy JSON from anywhere in Chrome. It reads selected text, hovered page elements, clipboard content, page source, page HTML, and raw pages, then pretty-prints nested JSON string fields like {"foo":"{\"bar\":1}"} as structured data. ANSI/log/source formatting remains as bonus coverage.

Hey HN! I wanted to share a chrome extension I built for myself called From Chaos. It's an extension that takes the content of the page and organizes it into structured data. For instance, taking all the restaurants on a "top 10" article and just returning their names. It requires an OpenAI API key that you can set in your settings, and lets you get data back as JSON, YAML, CSV, or plain text. I built it to help in my data-gathering efforts, but wanted to share in case it's useful to someone else as well! It doesn't always return perfect data, but it does save me quite a bit of time.

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…
