Show HN: Flight Ledger – Track your flights, what they cost, and United statushttps://app.flightledger.netHello HN,Flight Ledger is a private ledger of your flights, focused on (but not limited to) the United Airlines ecosystem. I am a physicist who has been based near two United hubs, first SFO and now IAH, and I fly United a lot, mostly for work.I built this app to track my flights, flight expenses, and Premier status qualification without having to log into various accounts. All the imports (such as MileagePlus activity csv, .eml receipts, or Flighty/myFlightRadar24 exports) and data filling are manual.A primary feature is that the app requires no sign-up and has no backend. Everything is stored locally, using SQLite and WebAssembly. This means that frequent back-ups are advisable to avoid losing data. For more robust backups and multi-device sync, the app also supports sync via Google Drive. I use this option for myself, but would be curious about other possible solutions.Perhaps the main features that differentiate it from other apps are that the app tracks costs and metrics like CPM Aug 22, 2026 1:08 AM

Show HN: OzBrain, a shared brain for knowledge between agents and your teamhttps://ozbrain.comI think agent-first chat interfaces will be a primary software modality and busy dashboard/UI will go away. I’m not sure who exactly wins it, but I want my knowledge to grow/go with me.A lot of the “knowledge” ie research, analysis, reasoning will be done by agents as the primary user. Our current notes tools & tasks management systems were built for humans… I don’t care what the 17th thing on my bug backlog is. I want to conduct agents that can execute for me and do great work.What I built OzBrain to do: + Create a central place for agent reasoned knowledge to live + Be agnostic about what apps/agents connect to it + Capture everything and track it so I can audit it + Enable teams, collaborators or partners to share brains + Handle conflicts so many agents in the same article doesn’t blow up + Refactor knowledge into more token friendly chunks and map the index well + Close the knowledge loop so new thinking supersedes old thinking across the corpus. Don’t erase, depreciate and link +Aug 21, 2026 11:09 PM

Windmill.dev is not "fully open-sourced (AGPLv3)"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49392365I think Windmill.dev (https://github.com/windmill-labs/windmill) is really cool, and fully support their desire to be paid for their work.However, their README says:> “Windmill is fully open-sourced (AGPLv3)…”But their LICENSE says:> ... The files under backend/ are AGPLv3 Licensed, except any snippets of code under the compile flag ‘enterprise’. Those snippets and files are under a proprietary and commercial license. Private and public forks MUST not include the proprietary/commercial code mentioned above.I dove deeper into the code, there are around 300 files in the codebase that contain references to enterprise or private features, so it's not a clearly separated directory that can just be removed.They have 1.1k forks of their repository that I can see on Github, and I doubt all of them took the time to strip the proprietary code to comply with the license.So at this point, it feels like a licensing trap for anyone that clicks the fork button on Github or is attracted by the AGPL liAug 21, 2026 6:50 PM

Show HN: Traccia - Observability, Runtime Control & Audit for agentshttps://traccia.ai/AI applications are becoming agents, which has started to take autonomous decisions. There are plenty of tools and platform available to trace, and observe what an agent or llms calls does. They are good in what they do, but tracing and observability isnt enough for AI agents era. We need a solution that can help you observe, evaluate, create run time policies to govern and finally audit the actions of the agent. We built Traccia to solve this problem. The good part, all of these can be achieved by just writing few lines of code. Traccia has an open-sourced sdk that can work with your existing observability tool like grafana, tempo, jaeger, etc. In case you need more than just observability, Traccia provides the platform to evaluate, control and audit the agents. The platform is easy to use. The product's documentation is quite extensive. It is also cloud vendor and framework agnostic. Traccia is being built by an Indian start up ,based out of Bengaluru. We are running a 3 months free Aug 21, 2026 6:20 PM
