What it does

Your coding agent hits a permission prompt. Your phone buzzes. You tap allow or deny and it keeps working. Connect with 1 command. Connect multiple devices.

Your coding agent hits a permission prompt. Your phone buzzes. You tap allow or deny and it keeps working.

Your agent's permission prompt goes to your phone. You tap allow or deny, and it keeps working. From install to a prompt on your lock screen in about a minute. npx tapproval setup registers a device, installs the hook and prints a QR to scan. Once per machine — then restart your agent. Instead of blocking on a terminal nobody is watching, the permission prompt is encrypted and pushed to your phone. Allow or deny, straight from the lock screen. The decision goes back to the hook still holding your agent open, and it carries on. The hook is just a subprocess: it reads the tool call on stdin and writes your decision back on stdout. One hop out, one hop back — and the payload is sealed before…from tapproval.vercel.app

    I kept missing when my Codex agents finished, so I built relayd — a mobile dashboard that sends push notifications and lets me continue agents from my phone. Free tier available. Would love feedback.

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
