Show HN: BigBlueBam, MIT-licensed Work OS where agents are first-class coworkershttps://github.com/eoffermann/BigBlueBamHi HN, Eddie here. My project BigBlueBam is a self-hosted, MIT-licensed Work OS with a unified backend with native MCP, "AI as Users" rather than bolted-on chat widgets. The deploy script will stand up the full stack (local Docker container or push it to Railway) in about the time it takes to make coffee.What's live in the build: * Bam (project management/Kanban) * Banter (chat with LiveKit voice/video) * Beacon (knowledge base with a graph view) * Brief (collaborative docs) * Board (infinite canvas whiteboard) * Bolt (workflow automation) * Bearing (goals and OKRs) * Bond (CRM) * Blast (email campaigns) * Bench (analytics and dashboards) * Book (scheduling) * Blank (forms) * Bill (invoicing) * HelpdeskThe architectural bet I cared about most: MCP is the execution substrate for the whole suite, not a "feature". 340 MCP tools (and counting) registered across the apps. Agents and Bolt automations call those tools through the same registry, same auth, same data, and the MCP tools replicatApr 22, 2026 1:35 PM

Show HN: Reinhardt – Django-style Rust framework; WASM+SSR from one DSLhttps://github.com/kent8192/reinhardt-webReinhardt is a Rust web framework where one component DSL compiles to both WASM (client) and server-rendered HTML — a single file describes both sides of a page, with no separate frontend codebase, no JS build toolchain, and no duplicated types across the client/server boundary.It also bundles what Django/DRF users expect: an ORM with auto-generated migrations from #[model] macros, DI, auth, admin, REST, background tasks, and i18n. Feature flags let you pull in just what you need (minimal / standard / full), or import individual crates directly.I built it after moving from Django/DRF to Rust and repeatedly re-assembling the same Axum + ORM + migrations + auth stack for every project.Quickstart: https://reinhardt-web.dev/quickstart/v0.1.0-rc.18 release: Crates.io (published as reinhardt-web; the shorter name was taken): https://crates.io/crates/reinhardt-webBSD 3-Clause.Apr 22, 2026 1:00 PM

Instead of writing my manuscript, I built a toolhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47849297Hi my name is Jeff, and I am a chronic procrastinator when it comes to my writing…Tell me that doesn’t sound familiar, I’ve literally written two blogs about this instead of actually writing my manuscript, cause literally anything (even scrubbing the toilet) is more compelling than the grind of getting through chapter 6.I actually started writing a tool in early January 2025. At the time, I was trying to find a way to gamify my writing. I wasn’t really looking to launch a serious writing tool at the time, just find a way to hack my brain into doing the work (and find another excuse to not write).The result of that was a simple text box with a word counter (0/500 words) that used a little bit of JavaScript to count the words you dumped in the box, deduct any shorter than 3 letters and then let you know if you hit your writing goal for the day (and you even got some fireworks!)The tool worked, I found myself anticipating pasting my daily writing progress into the box for that dopamine reApr 21, 2026 2:25 PM

Ask HN: Would you use revocable digital signatures to verify AI/Other content?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47848539I’ve been exploring a potential product direction and wanted to sanity check it with people who actually build and ship things.Background: I’ve been working on a system using our core tech that can generate and verify digital signatures, but with a slightly different property than traditional approaches. The signatures are natively revocable. If the underlying model/system shouldn’t be trusted anymore, the signatures can be revoked either through a hard (delete the signing model) or soft (revoke the lease for the signing model) mechanism. I believe this feature is very beneficial on its own, but there are several other interesting properties (no key management, distributed verification, embedded metadata, etc.)Originally this came out of some deeper R&D work we’re doing, but I’ve been thinking this might actually be the most practical “wedge” into the market while we continue that research (and fund the research).One area that’s been interesting is applying this to AI systems.

Show HN: Agensi – Curated marketplace for AI agent skills (SKILL.md)https://www.agensi.ioHi HN. I'm Samuel, founder of Agensi (agensi.io). I'm a non-technical founder in the Netherlands. Built the platform mostly with Claude Code and Lovable over the last few months.What it is: a curated marketplace for SKILL.md skills. SKILL.md is the folder-plus-instructions format Anthropic shipped for teaching AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, and others) new capabilities. Creators publish skills, users install them into their agent. Every listing goes through an automated security scan before going live.Two things I've tried to do that felt missing from the ecosystem:1. Curation with security. Running someone else's code on your machine without review is a real risk, especially given the ToxicSkills and ClawHavoc research that came out earlier this year (36% of sampled skills had prompt injection vectors). Every skill on Agensi runs through an automated scan checking permission boundaries, outbound network requests, dependency red flags, and common malware Apr 21, 2026 9:50 AM

Show HN: Weekly Log, Old-school journaling social mediahttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47843663Weekly Log is a minimalistic social media website designed for you to do journaling and creative writing.A lot of modern social media apps are set up in a way that addicts and detriments the users, meanwhile profiting off of their data. I really wanted to make a site that doesn't operate in that way.Some of its distinctions: - You can create one post per week. This encourages care and consideration. - Nobody knows who you follow or what posts you react to, besides you and the other user. These stats are personal, so people view your logs free of outside influence. - Posts are rich text-only, no images or videos, in an effort to reduce mental clutter. - Your feed only features users you follow, to give you increased control of what you see, unless you click the "global" checkbox to see all posts.quick demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CTnORsGnL8 overview page: https://www.weekly-log.com/about/overview---I have soft-launched this website, and a handful of my friends have signed up aApr 21, 2026 2:02 AM

Getting back into photography, ditching the phone camera in 2026?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47842292I've been looking through twenty-five-odd years of my own photos. The collection includes scanned 35mm and medium format images; digital pictures from a few Canon Powershot generations and a 20D SLR; and about five iPhones.I've noticed that the non-cell-phone pictures tended to be better, and that in general I seemed to have quite a bit more fun with photos taken with, well, "real" cameras. Probably the best ones were taken with the 20D, which for its time was a really nice camera, for which I was able to bring over some lenses from my film days.I wouldn't rule out more film photography but I think of that as a somewhat separate track. I'd like to get a digital camera that captures a bit more of what I enjoyed about film photography - that high image density, looking through a physical viewfinder, not necessarily curating images in real time... looking, shooting, and moving on.I've been following Fujifilm cameras for awhile in this market, having read about them here a few years ago.
