The Daily Auction

What it does

The website that auctions itself off every day on Solana. Winner controls a Codex agent to edit the website. The auction mechanism is an English auction with a reserve price of 0.1 SOL. The Codex agent operates in a sandbox where it can only output HTML/CSS/JS. The project is open-source, and you can verify the correctness of the on-chain auction contract.

  Hi HN, I built this side project earlier this week. It executes an English auction on Solana with a reserve price of 0.1 SOL. Auction winner gets control of a Codex editor. Auction losers get refunded (minus a <$0.01 processing fee). The Codex agent operates in a sandbox and can only output HTML&#x2F;JS&#x2F;CSS. The project is open-source: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;neelsomani&#x2F;the-daily-auction

  isometric.nyc – giant isometric pixel art map of NYC▲1,325

  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:&#x2F;&#x2F;cannoneyed.com&#x2F;projects&#x2F;isometric-nyc
