Show HN: I precompiled the path network of 3 continents to invent hiking routeshttps://windygap.appWindy Gap generates hiking and running routes based on what you ask for. There are potential routes all around us and it finds them.I built it because I train for endurance events and have a camper van. I kept wanting to do certain kinds of hikes and runs and having no popular routes nearby, even in areas with dense path networks. I also wanted to squeeze more novelty out of my local area.Instead of choosing an existing route or plotting one waypoint by waypoint you can ask for something like a hilly half day walk from where you are. You can mark places to check out and avoid and it folds them into the routes it gives you.At request time, it uses a precompiled path graph (Europe, the Americas, and India). It analyzes what's actually on route: distance, elevation, summits, surface type, points of interest etc. Then scores candidates against the brief and returns the best. The initial naive implementation (typescript based, directly fetching from Overpass) was hopelessly slow (P95 ~48s, Aug 14, 2026 12:27 PM

Show HN: Artifex - Graph Based GPU Harness for AI Agentshttps://gatewai.studio/artifexArtifex is a machine-first, headless CLI runtime built for autonomous coding agents to author, validate, and render media node graphs locally. The agent talks to Artifex through a structured CLI interface. Workflows are DAGs, and each node is a plugin that can implement its own execution logic..Each node has capability to inject logic into graph processing, WebGPU rendering, audio processing and their own SKILL.md file. Nodes can also inject their react components (not available with CLI) - which will be available with the desktop app.Execution is topological and supports checkpoint caching via state flags (--state and --from-state), allowing agents to adjust layout coordinates or downstream filters without recomputing expensive and long upstream generation calls (such as Video Generation using Fal AI or an Agent Node using OpenRouter).Multi-track visual composition timeline with animations, blending, media cut, crop, color LUTs, filter graphs, audio effects and other media editing nodAug 14, 2026 12:15 PM

Show HN: Open Vibe Coded Elite – Harmlesshttps://github.com/atomic14/harmlessI'm trying out a bit of an experiment - I've had Claude (and other models) building this for me: https://harmless.atomic14.com/It's an "Open Vibe Code" project - I won't be accepting any PRs, instead, open an issue https://github.com/atomic14/harmless/issues and I'll point claude at all the issues periodically and see what it does.The current game is very playable right now and has quite a few features. Push '?' to get the keyboard layout. Classic Elite was very keyboard heavy - it you played it when you were younger it will feel very familiar. If you've never played it... you'll pick it up soon enough!Aug 14, 2026 11:08 AM
