Traycer – AI-Powered Code Analysis in Real Time for VSCode
Hey HN, we're thrilled to announce the alpha launch of Traycer, our new AI-driven code reviewer that works in the background as you code. During this initial phase, Traycer is completely free until the end of June and will remain free indefinitely for all open-source projects. You can install Traycer from the VSCode marketplace (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Traycer....). Why Traycer?

In plain words
Traycer is an AI-powered code reviewer that runs as a VSCode extension, analyzing code in real time as developers write. It provides context-aware feedback directly in the IDE, helping catch quality and security issues that AI code generators might miss. The tool is free through June 2024 and remains permanently free for open-source projects.

Hey HN, we're thrilled to announce the alpha launch of Traycer, our new AI-driven code reviewer that works in the background as you code. During this initial phase, Traycer is completely free until the end of June and will remain free indefinitely for all open-source projects. You can install Traycer from the VSCode marketplace (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Traycer....). Why Traycer? As developers, we know the challenge of ensuring code quality while balancing productivity. AI-powered code generators have simplified coding but often miss the nuances that ensure code quality and security. Traycer aims to fill this gap by providing real-time, context-aware feedback right in your IDE, functioning like a vigilant senior developer overseeing your codebase. What Can Traycer Do? * Always On Analysis: Traycer monitors your code as you write, understanding the intent and implications of each line, and provides immediate feedback to keep your code clean and efficient. * Comprehensive Coverage: It not only looks at the changes but also at how they affect the surrounding code and related functions, catching potential bugs before they become a problem. * Actionable Suggestions: Get clear, actionable suggestions that you can preview and incorporate into your code with just a single click. Supported Languages Currently, Traycer supports Python and TypeScript, with plans to expand to more languages based on community feedback. We believe Traycer will be a valuable tool for developers looking to enhance their workflow and code quality. Try it out, share your thoughts, and let’s code better together! Looking forward to your feedback and thanks for checking out Traycer! Cheers, Founding Team at Traycer

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
