Show HN: Overlay – Design with your React components and CSS tokens in your IDEhttps://www.overlay.studio/Hey HN, I'm Francesco. I've spent the last year building Overlay, a UI editor that runs inside your IDE and renders your actual React components (not a redraw of them), using your real CSS tokens.I'm a design engineer and, especially with AI, I found myself spending more and more time in the codebase rather than in Figma. Trying out ideas in code with AI is a lot of fun, but there are specific moments where I need to sketch things out on a classical visual canvas. The problem is, when you work mostly with code and your codebase moves faster than your Figma library, stopping to import your latest components into Figma is an energy-killer.So I built Overlay to get quick access to my React components on a canvas. It's a VS Code extension, so opening the canvas takes seconds. Your components are already there, and you're designing with the real thing: the editor is a normal DOM document, not a WebGL canvas. From there, working with AI (via MCP) is also a breeze. The agent already has acces

Show HN: Try Benzi – A coding harness/agent beating Claude Code itself on Sonnethttps://benzi.fly.dev/aboutHi y'all. Been working on something that should've been made a long time ago imo. It compiles codebases into O(1) hashmaps that the agent queries to discover the structure of your code/answer questions/write code.It also does complete static analysis checks on any writes the agent makes.Don't take my word for it though. Here are the benchmarks: https://benzi.fly.dev/benchmark. on 2/20 tests, Claude Code (mostly Sonnet on one task) regressed or timed out. Benzi didn't because of course, it has a map it can query and not get lost in the sauce. On the other 18 it is cheaper, faster, or often both.Would love to get some early adoption and criticism!(Only available on Windows for now. soz. and also keep an eye on the benchmarking page; I think I can push it far more -- no promises, still work in progress. Haven't thoroughly tested greenfielding experience either.)(another note: VS Code extension/website is running DeepSeek V4 flash. not Sonnet. Everything mostly built with CC Sonnet tho )

Countries, $100k Savings: Where should I live?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49223036Dear All,This may sound weird, and sorry for asking it. I have immense indecision due to childhood trauma and cannot decide on something. I'm 36, M, single, living with my parents in Turkey. I work 100% remotely with a shitty-paying, not-so-demanding job. I'm Turkish and also have Portuguese and Albanian residency. I have dependency issues with my parents which I need to eventually break, but a part of me doesn't want to. I'm emotionally immature due to severe childhood trauma, but I try to function at my best in life.So the dilemma is: where to live? All options work for me actually, so for me the decision ain't loud and clear. My choices are buying (or renting) an apartment for myself either in my home city or any other city (I already have an apartment in my home city that is rented out, paying me around 500 EUR). Or, moving to Portugal to keep my residency active and working the 1300 EUR-paying job from there, where I can either rent or buy property (if I sell my apartment in Turke

Show HN: ESP32 Bowling System technical write-uphttps://nicholas-a-hall.github.io/openlanelink/Hi everyone! I'm the ESP32 Bowling guy from a few weeks ago, back with a technical write-up and a repo link.Since my last post, I've received -tons- of support and encouragement for the project. I'm absolutely blown away. I didn't think there would be much interest!This last week, I spent a ton of time working on the prototype. It can trigger my pinsetter machines and read ball state, there's a basic state machine for the game and a React UI for the bowlers. I've also built the prototype uart bridge which connects an ESP32 gateway node to a raspberry pi lane compute module, which acts as a bridge between the ESPNOW mesh and lane-external services.The last major blocker is object detection on an ESP32-CAM module. I could go with a webcam wired to the Pi, but that feels like cheating. I really want the Pi running the state machine, websocket and REST API endpoints only. One of my key constraints for this project is that each node serves one purpose only, and it performs that purpose well

Show HN: Llmem – Local persistent memory for AI coding, no embeddingshttps://github.com/netrixone/llmemHi folks. This part of AI coding always felt really dumb: after working on many projects it repeats the same mistakes, uses awkward patterns or looks up stuff over and over. It just does not remember. Skills exists, but I don't like maintaining lots of markdown files. There were other solutions for this and I'm sure there are even more now, but I simply did not fancy those for one reason or another.So I wrote my own good-enough persistent memory which easily integrates with all AI coding tools I use. Lightweight, local, 1 Go binary + 1 SQLite file. Speaks MCP + good old REST API I can curl.After some testing I settled on BM25 lexical search with optional WordNet synonym expansions - no embeddings, no vector DB, no external API calls. A downside is English memories only, but that's OK for me.Memory_context pulls priority-tagged memories at session start, auto-consolidation merges near-duplicates to prevent bloat. Later I added optional memory types, project scopes and hashtags.I've been

Ask HN: How do you correct spatial reasoning of LLMs?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49181570I'm working on a complex multi-part 3D-printed product, and I needed some engineering input from LLMs. I use highest Gemini Pro reasoning levels, Fable, and K3 Max with everything tuned to highest.The problem I'm facing is mounting a sensor on a barbell sleeve. The sensor is a semi-hollow 100mm cylinder, 60mm diameter, with a 50mm diameter 50mm deep tube cutout for the sleeve. (It's a bit more complex than that.)I'm trying to brainstorm different clamping mechanisms, and evaluate durability and manufacturability of several designs.No matter what I try, the output of all LLMs is absolutely wild, especially if you ask to make a technical drawing. Anthropic reliably been the worst, and Gemini, surprisingly, the best.But none understand what goes where in any detail, besides spewing paragraph and paragraph of wild ideas including rotational cam clamps over a recessed ring TPU collet (apparently, a "brilliant pivot") and stuff like this.Is this the "unconquered frontier"?

Show HN: Guide AI coding agents on how to use libraries securelyhttps://github.com/Reware-Labs/securitycardsHi HN,TL;DR: AI Code Security Cards give coding agents library- and version-specific guidance to generate safer code.AI coding agents can generate working code, but they often lack library- and version-specific security knowledge. We've developed AI Code Security Cards, an open-source security knowledge layer, to provide that missing context.The project is related to my PhD, in which I focused on the security of LLM-generated code. During my research, I studied how code generation models behave, how they introduce security issues, and how we can guide them toward generating safer code.My research [1] and several other studies [2–4] show that at least 40% of code generated by state-of-the-art models contains one or more security issues. Similar problems also affect AI coding agents.One reason is that these models often lack sufficient library-specific security knowledge in their context. They may not know which configurations are unsafe, which validation steps are required, or what secu

Show HN: Neal – Codex writes the code, Claude reviews ithttps://github.com/navels/nealneal is a CLI I wrote while trying to use an LLM coding agent (in this case, Codex GPT-5.4) to work autonomously on a migration of our large frontend codebase. A few things came up during that project that guided the development of neal:1. Telling an agent to "keep working unless blocked" doesn't actually work over long stretches of time.2. Large projects should be broken up into smaller chunks of work.3. The coding agent should start each chunk of work with a fresh context to prevent context rot.4. The coding agent benefits from having a different agent doing adversarial reviews along the way.What I ended up with is an orchestrator that- lets you configure planner, coder, and reviewer roles. I started with Codex and Claude using their SDKs but later added OpenRouter as well as a compatibility mode for verifying that a model can handle the orchestration. Currently there are 44 compatible OpenRouter models.- runs a plan that you provide through a planner / reviewer loop which splits the

Show HN: Popkorn – A CSS based alternative for Lottie animationshttps://github.com/ayarse/popkornHi all,I’ve been working on this project for a while now and wanted to share it here for feedback and contributions. You can test drive it in the playground at:https://usepopkorn.devI’ve been calling it Popkorn. The idea is to author vector animations, similar to Rive and Lottie, but in a CSS-like language, with interactivity and other modern necessities baked into the format. I’ve stayed true to CSS for the most part, sprinkling on a little custom syntax for things like interactivity.Staying close to CSS gives it good DX, and it turns out to make it very LLM-friendly too. Nearly my entire examples gallery is AI generated. Even cheap models like GLM or DSv4 Flash can one shot whole animations from scratch, no fine-tuning required. There’s a Copilot feature the Playground that will let you bring your own key, or use the MCP to test drive AI features. Do share what you make please!There’s a web player that renders on Canvas or SVG, and a React Native player using Skia. It supports nested

Show HN: Christopher Nolan's Hymn to Athenahttps://jackcushman.org/writing/hymn-to-athena/Hi, HN! Did you know that Chris Nolan's casting of Tom Holland and Zendaya eerily echoes a 3000-year-old dance battle between Athena and Telemachus? I've been working on an art project that says so.If you like, it can be fun to go in blind with a strong research agent to sort out what this really is. Or there is a multi-layered CAPTCHA at the bottom that spells it out increasingly clearly.As a small spoiler: my day job is building reliable public data tools for a library. This piece draws on that background to try to make AI-native art -- fiction by and for humans who use AI agents as a source of truth. At best I hope it works as the kind of joke one Iain M. Banks Culture AI would tell another about humans.

Show HN: Vein, a minimalist open-source resource management gamehttps://d2ykijtrvb890q.cloudfront.net/Recently I've been working on Vein, a small open-source resource management game built with Godot.I've always loved resource management board games, and I wanted to see how minimal I could make one. The core idea is simple: keep the heart beating by supplying it with the resources it demands. I tried to strip the mechanics down as much as possible while still leaving room for interesting decisions, and I added a short tutorial to help players get started.The problem is that I still don't feel like I've found the right gameplay loop. It works, but it isn't yet the game I imagined. I'd really appreciate any feedback—whether it's about the mechanics, pacing, tutorial, UI, or anything else that stands out. I'm especially interested in ideas for making the core loop deeper without making the game more complicated.Most of the development was done with Claude Sonnet as a coding partner, while I focused on the design, gameplay, and iteration. The game engine is Godot.You can play it here: http
