Show HN: Graph2agent; Mermaid diagrams, explained for agentshttps://graph2agent.github.io/During the implementation of a huge high performance service. In order to keep context small (mainly for humans) I kept the specs into mermaid diagrams. When communicating with humans; diagrams were easy to follow and to remember. But when I asked the agent to implement what's in the diagram, most of the times it failed.So I came into conclusion that agents are good into writing mermaid diagrams but they are not good into reading them.I built graph2agent in order to deterministically (without inference :) ) convert mermaid diagrams into digestible rich text for agents. examples: https://github.com/graph2agent/examples/blob/main/examples/m...This gave us 50% error reduction for any class of diagrams and 80% error reduction for sequence diagrams specifically. Also Input tokens increased on avg by 8% (which is expected) but Reasoning tokens dropped by almost 50%.You can use it either with MCP so agents can call it with any mermaid diagram, and also can put it in pre-commit jobs and run itAug 10, 2026 9:29 PM

Show HN: Oqoqo – build evals and custom benchmarks for real-world taskshttps://oqoqo.aiMost benchmarks today exist in curated environments and do not translate well to the real world.We built Oqoqo to bridge this gap. Oqoqo makes it super simple to build realistic evals and custom benchmarks for tasks users actually care about.Oqoqo can:- Reliably measure how agent friendly your product surfaces are against Codex, Claude Code, OpenClaw, Hermes, Pi, Opencode, Cursor, GitHub Copilot - Regression test MCP, CLI, skills, SDK, and any agent facing interface (we are continuously using Oqoqo to dogfood and improve our own MCP/CLI) - Create and share custom benchmarks for how agents discover and use your product - Compare models and harnesses for domain specific tasks - See whether new versions improve agent experienceWould love to hear feedback and thoughts on what kind of evals you are running today, if you are benchmarking agent facing interfaces, and whether you have published a custom benchmark.Aug 10, 2026 9:27 PM

Show HN: My solar died for 6 months, so I built a watchdoghttps://sunranker.comHi HN, Shawn here. My rooftop system lost about half a year of production and nobody told me. Not the installer, not the monitoring app, not the utility. I found out from an electric bill that made no sense, then spent weeks digging through the monitoring portal by hand.SunRanker is what I wished existed that day. Connect a system once (Enphase OAuth, or a SolarEdge site ID plus API key) and it reads production daily, shows it in plain language, and emails you when something actually changes. Three alerts only. The connection broke, the monitoring went quiet, or output has been well below your own typical for days. Plus a short monthly review. No daily drip.It's free, and my own system is on the homepage with its bad months showing. The gray months are my monitoring going quiet.Would love feedback on the alert thresholds (drop detection is five days under half of a 28 day baseline) and which brand to support next. Tesla makes this hard for third parties.Stack, for the curious. Laravel,Aug 10, 2026 7:54 PM

Show HN: Gitseq: A Repo Becomes a Workroomhttps://github.com/generalbusiness-ai/gitseqLast week I was trying to figure out how to run a new project at work, where there are lots of technical artifacts, lots of stakeholders upstream and downstream, plenty of documentation for different audiences... all the usual stuff, and actually very little "code" and lots of "best practice" that the project will manage. I won't even be the subject-matter expert for most of it. Yikes.Then I figured out a small thing that could make the whole job easier: git plus a sequencer plus some ontology. Proving the idea took a few hours, until it was bootstrapped enough to use as its own development harness with a handful of agents doing most of the implementation.Work in progress - plenty still to do - but I think it's useful for agentic development. Hopefully it will eventually turn out to be the "PMO in a box" that I really need for that project.A few artifacts:- Blog post: https://generalbusiness.ai/blog/2026-08-09-gitseq/ - "Coordination and Traceability: Not Two Problems"- GitHub repo: htAug 10, 2026 7:06 PM

Show HN: Django-Style Queries for SQLAlchemyhttps://github.com/ViAchKoN/sqlalchemy-query-managerHey!Wanted to share the project I've worked on for more than a year. The core was done last summer but since then I couldn't find time to implement all the functionality I had in mind. But a few months ago, I made myself sit down and plan the introduction of the remaining things.And with the release of 0.7.0 I can say that 85 percent is done and I'm ready to share it.I wrote a Python package which serves as a layer on top of SQLAlchemy and allows you to write Django-style queries. The idea came from work where we had an additional helper file which had methods for select, filters and other simple queries. When we didn't use those helper methods we wrote queries using the SQLAlchemy syntax which took a lot of time and code space. Especially the fact that you need to specify a model in filtering.In the end I decided to move all those helper methods to a package thereby we can just import them from one place. Django style format was selected because, personally, I found it easy to read anAug 10, 2026 6:03 PM

Show HN: OpenParser – swappable OCR models in one APIhttps://www.openparser.devWe build document AI workflows, and OCR is finicky. At scale, it becomes hard to debug errors and compare confidence scores across providers.New OCR models appear all the time, so we wanted one interface that lets us swap models in and out without rewriting around each provider. So far, we’ve integrated nine models from PaddleOCR, Mistral, Azure, Google and AWS Textract. We run them at cost, with no markup.We also created and open-sourced a shared schema, openparser@1, plus adapters that normalize each provider’s response. You can switch OCR models without changing the rest of your application:https://github.com/eigenpal/openparserI’d appreciate feedback on the schema and which models or providers we should add next.Aug 10, 2026 5:08 PM

Launch HN: Stoa Markets (YC S26) – A Marketplace for GPUs and AI Servershttps://www.stoaexchange.comHi HN, we’re Eren, Berat and Kaan. We’re building Stoa (https://www.stoaexchange.com), a marketplace for new and used GPUs and AI servers.GPUs are the collateral in the data center buildout. Today, financing terms mostly depend on the offtaker, meaning the company that has committed to use the compute.If that company is a hyperscaler, the financing can look investment grade. If it’s a smaller cloud or startup, terms get expensive fast, even with the same hardware as collateral.The lender’s problem is pretty reasonable. If the borrower defaults and we need to sell these servers, what can we actually get for them? There isn’t a good answer today.We started brokering GPU deals to understand why. It was much more manual than we expected. The hardware is still traded through phone calls, forwarded spreadsheets and long email threads.One week, a seller quoted us $200k for a server node and another quoted $240k for what looked like the same thing. Neither was necessarily wrong. They had diffeAug 10, 2026 4:35 PM

Show HN: Bio Tools – install drug design tools easilyhttps://github.com/David-OConnor/bio_toolsI made a CLI program, Rust and Python lib that makes it easy to install and run bio / drug design tools. (structure prediction, sequence prediction, property prediction etc).You install it with `pip install bio_tools_app`, then run commands like `bio_tools install alphafold3` or `bio_tools run proteinmpnn --version` etc.This smooths over the complexities of installing these tools, which often depend on [mutually exclusive] python environments in a mix of PyPi-capable and Conda. I use it as a shared library between a python web app and a rust standalone GUI program. (Molchanica)Aug 10, 2026 3:55 PM

Show HN: TickClip – An AI shopping agent that can recommend not buyinghttps://www.tickclip.ai/My name is Tarik Aarbaoui, I am an affiliate and influencer marketing specialist. For the last 14 years I’ve worked to grow revenue while trying to meet shoppers’ expectations.But during my time there, I observed a core conflict: shoppers often look to influencers and affiliate content to help them decide what to buy, but the people making those recommendations are usually only compensated when a purchase happens. Usually this means that the incentive is to encourage the sale, even when waiting or not buying might be better for the shopper.That insight is what inspired me to build TickClip. It uses a simple three-outcome decision model for online shopping: Tick to buy, Clip to wait or reconsider, Skip to avoid.The point is to build a fiduciary decision layer that views purchases from the buyer’s viewpoint, not optimizing for conversion.I'd love feedback on the decision model, how clear the verdicts are, and what evidence you'd need to see to trust a system like this.Aug 10, 2026 2:42 PM
