Think Better
Hey HN, author here. I noticed a pattern: every time I asked my AI assistant a complex question like "should we migrate to microservices or optimize the monolith?", I'd get the same generic pros-and-cons list. The model has the reasoning capability — it just lacks structured mental models. So I built Think Better: a set of open-source "AI Skills" (following the Anthropic skill format) that inject professional decision science frameworks directly into your local AI setup. How it works under the hood: - The skills contain 16 CSV files with 155 structured knowledge records (decision frameworks,…

What it does
Stop letting AI guess. Think Better is an open-source CLI framework that injects McKinsey-level critical thinking skills (Weighted Matrix, Issue Trees, Bias Detection) directly into Claude and Copilot. Make complex decisions in seconds.

Opper AIJul 2026 · opper.ai · ▲229Hey HN! After the Car Wash Test post got quite a big discussion going (400+ comments, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47128138), I spent the past few weeks building a tool so anyone can run these kinds of questions and get structured results. No signup and free to use. You type a question, define answer options, pick up to 50 models at a time from a pool of 200+, and they all answer independently under identical conditions. No system prompt, structured output, same setup for every model. You can also run a debate round where models see each other's reasoning and get a…
doXmindMar 2026 · doxmind.com · ▲108Hi HN, I’m Steve, co-founder of doXmind. We built doXmind for people who want docs and AI, but not all of Notion. Notion is powerful, but if your main use case is writing, collaboration, and AI help inside documents, it can feel like more than you actually need. You end up inside a much bigger workspace of databases, templates, and project management features, when sometimes all you really want is a clean doc editor with strong AI built in. So we took a different approach. In doXmind, AI works directly in the document instead of living in a sidebar chat. It reads the structure of what you’re…
HelpingAI2025 · helpingai.co · ▲22Hey HN, We’re the team behind HelpingAI, and we’ve been experimenting with ways to make LLM reasoning faster and more efficient, especially for complex tasks like math problems, coding questions, and logic puzzles. During a fine-tuning session of our older reasoning model, a bug accidentally introduced a think tag mid-response. Rather than break the model, it created a chain-of-thought style intermediate step — and the model got better. That bug inspired us to explore what we now call Intermediate Reasoning. We scaled this up by fine-tuning Qwen3-14B on 3 trillion tokens of…
Think, CL tool that makes AI your command line copilot (written in Go)2023 · github.com · ▲14Hi HN, I'm thrilled to share with you think, a command-line tool that I developed while diving back into the programming scene. For the past few years, my focus had shifted from hands-on programming to managerial roles, my last one being at Affirm (I started Affirm's Polish office). However, I recently left my job to revisit my passion for coding and see if I could still write code that works. Not to mention that with what is currently going on in AI if you are a developer this probably the best possible time for a sabbatical in human history :) My first attempt was with LangChain, but I…
