SpecificProxy – Proxy Using a Specific IP
Threw together this very specific proxy that allows the downstream to define which IP will be used for the proxied request, and has built-in rate limiting mechanism to coordinate upstream rate limiting across clients. This is particularly useful when you have a proxy node with many IPs, and you either want to use a specific one, or rotate through them. It also helps prevent upstream rate limiting due to disjoint clients being unable to coordinate on rate limits. Opus was largely able to one-shot each feature from my specs, which was pretty cool (shows how effective a spec is).

In plain words
SpecificProxy is a proxy tool that lets downstream clients specify which IP address to use for proxied requests and includes built-in rate limiting to coordinate limits across multiple clients. It's designed for proxy nodes with multiple IPs, enabling users to select specific IPs or rotate through them automatically. The rate limiting feature prevents upstream rate limiting issues when different clients can't coordinate independently. It targets developers managing proxy infrastructure with distributed access needs.

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
