Show HN: Browser Agent – cost efficient browser automationI've built a browser agent harness that outperforms Browser Code on their own benchmark (BU Bench v1), on success rate, speed and cost.Browser Agent: 88% success rate, $5.37, 32,694 seconds Browser Code: 78% success rate, $8.34, 47,970 secondsFor browser agents to become ubiquitous, they need to be faster, cheaper, and more reliable. The harness was built with token efficiency in mind (and uses 91% fewer tokens than Browser Code) to reduce the compute and VRAM budget necessary to fine tune a small, specialised model.Because browser agent inference is intermittent, a small specialised model could serve each step with minimal GPU time. This makes per-task pricing viable, offering users cheaper, more predictable costs and giving the operator a counter-positioning advantage over frontier labs pricing their models by token usage.More about the comparison between Browser Agent and Browser Code here: https://www.pierrebarreau.com/blog/improving-the-state-of-th...If anyone is interested in fin

Show HN: OpenMetaHarness – long-horizon execution over multiple context sessionsHi HackerNews,I've been working with multimodal agentic systems ever since the ImageNet and DQN days.When I started vibecoding last year, I came up with new ways to set up projects to avoid known issues in long-horizon task execution. I thought it would be great if I had one simple file that a coding agent could read when I start a new project to address these known issues while improving efficiency and autonomy long-term.OpenMetaHarness is a cognitive architecture that enables coding agents to develop and execute on a long-horizon project vision from 0 to 1 with minimal human intervention and maximum token efficiency across multiple sessions and context windows.You will be able to direct a persistent engineering operation whose memory, judgment, and discipline compound with the project. As the project accumulates verified decisions, operating lessons, and category-specific trust, any compatible coding agent can resume with more context, repeat fewer mistakes, and work autonomously for

Show HN: Energy, carbon and water estimates for AI content, shown as rangesHi HN,I built this calculator because I noticed it's easy to know how much a LLM costs per token, but it's extremely difficult to know it's carbon footprint or power consumption. I created this as a reference based on some published papers and public information, and it helps to have a guide of the impact of photo and video generation using AI.I also added another factor about Token utilization, it's something that becomes important as the newer models start to use "thinking" modes to reach a conclusion. There is information up to earlier this year, so it's not possible to see the efficiency of newer models like OpenAI Sol or Kimi K3.All the calculator does is to provide estimations and translate them in ordinary figures so people can understand it. There is no login required or any other type of paywall.About the models, it's easier to make estimates for Open Source models (of course) so there's more confidence on that data. For the closed ones, there are estimations based on public a

Show HN: Integrate any CLI agent into any terminalWhether at work as a software engineer or in my private life, I kept running into the same problem: While working in my terminal, I’d wish I could use AI to make sense of recent output or compose a command. Copying and pasting context between a chat and the terminal was tedious and preemptively running a full CLI coding agent threw away all the efficiency of working in a shell. Both workflows were far from ideal.What I really wanted was for the coding agents I already used to pop into my terminal when needed, staying invisible the rest of the time.I couldn't find any existing tools that fit. iTerm2’s AI features don't let me use my existing AI subscriptions, Warp requires changing your entire terminal emulator and workflow (and a new subscription). I wanted a transparent wrapper that could work with my existing tools, staying completely invisible until summoned with a shortcut.ArchitectureI started from the codebase of the excellent mprocs by pvolok to handle terminal emulation and ren

The Cost of SeamlessnessThe Hidden Cost of Frictionless Technology Taotuner — 2026I recently asked an AI assistant for restaurant recommendations. It listed five places, complete with ratings, distance, and popular dishes. I picked one, went, had a fine meal. Later, when a friend asked what I'd eaten, I couldn't remember the name of the restaurant.The experience wasn't bad. It was frictionless. And it left almost no trace.We've built tools that eliminate the gap between want and satisfaction, question and answer, curiosity and resolution. We call it seamlessness. We've assumed it's progress. But the gap wasn't inefficiency — it was where memory, judgment, and understanding used to form.What if removing it is making us less capable?The Pattern This isn't just about restaurant recommendations. The same dynamic shows up across AI, therapy, cities, and education.Take AI assistants. The industry evaluates them on speed, accuracy, and satisfaction. Those metrics capture whether the tool works. They don't capture wh

Show HN: The TERSE state language and protocol# Hello World(valid terse; for Show HN)I'm terse(greetings)## Container"A container may have one text block, single or multi-line"Object(Semi-colon separated attributes; variables_like: 123; "Traditional unicode strings allowed here too.")Another object with a name(multiple objects under a container)## Further description of TERSE"""TERSE is a unified way to store state, with a defined way to query and mutate it that has been relentlessly refined for overall simplicity and token efficiency not just at rest, but in operation.We realized state access was a low-level, common pattern that keeps getting reinvented. It goes deeper than just AI memory. Consider that Anthropic memory and others are a bunch of markdown files and in some respects, they got it right... simpler is better.So REALLY the problem is settling on a format that is flexible to cover 95% of a domain. We can do so MUCH better than Markdown; TERSE is opinionated on that but it has very good reasons.By being a line-ordered an

Show HN: FixBugs – Reproduce production bugs and verify fixesI built FixBugs, an agent that ingests the rich context surrounding production bugs to reproduce them in a sandbox and generate verified fixes. It's available in the form of a self-hosted VSCode extension and as a Github app:VSCode Extension: https://fixbugs.ai/go/vscode-extension - full code and data privacy. - zero data retention models opted out of training. GitHub App: https://fixbugs.ai/go/github-app - we do access your code temporarily. - pick a repo to install FixBugs on. What motivated me to build FixBugs were my years being on-call at Google and VMware. How many hours did I spend gathering logs, traces, reviewing metrics, and reading code only to find that,* Some context was missing.* The bug wasn't reproducible.* The alert was caused by a transient infrastructure issue.Too many. Inefficiency in investigating staging/production bugs has a real cost, and it's paid both by developers and customers.Current capabilities: - Reproduce the bug. - Identify the root cause. - Generate a

Ask HN: Have the founders of Palentir and Anduril ever read Tolkien?The Lord of the Rings famously includes very strong thematic critiques of industrialization and technological encroachment into everyday life.[0] Tolkien portrays the titular relics, as well as many of the other magical artifacts in Middle Earth like the palentiri, as tools of evil, destruction, and environmental devastation. Tolkien cited his upbringing in the rapidly industrializing English Midlands and his experiences in World War I as major influences, and used the typical Arthurian framing of good versus evil to contrast natural, agrarian life with the soulless, mechanical efficiency of industrialization.So my question is--have the founders of Palentir[1] and Anduril[2] ever actually read JRR Tolkien, and if so, did they comprehend its text? Assuming they do understand the symbolism behind their company names, are they just trolling us; Or are they simply engaging in a gimmicky, cynical effort to commoditize our nostalgia as a branding exercise for manufacturers of the literal too

Show HN: Ray Hosting – Topology-aware game server orchestrator made from scratchHey HN, I have built a game server orchestrator from scratch, As a solo-dev it took me 3+ years and almost 10 hours daily to finally complete it since i started in the beginning of 2023. Im 26 years old now!.The complexity and stuff i had to research to complete this project i couldnt have imagined them even in my dreams, but hey, here it is, my greatest professional achievement until now.Down below I will try to break down just some of the core and most important features of my game server orchestrator.1. CORE PINNING & CCD CACHE ALIGNMENTI had to research and understand CPU cache layouts. I found out that if my game containers, which utilize docker run, span across different core complex dies (CCDs) or share SMT sibling threads with a busy neighbor, L3 cache thrashing ruins single-core tick efficiency.Then what I did is that I pinned all non game-server processes strictly on core 0 and its SMT sibling core 12 using GRUB:I disabled the 1000Hz timer interrupts to prevent context switch

Show HN: Agents, run any coding agent on your subscription not API costsHi HN. I'm the founder of Phoenix Labs (ex TikTok, Applied AI) and we're open sourcing our internal tooling today which is like a toolchain / meta-harness for CLI agents useful for really scaling eng and creative work.We are a very small team who's building a very ambitious product so we had to find ways to squeeze every ounce of efficiency that we could get our hands on. Harness strengths of different models (Claude, GPTs) and CLI-harnesses (Claude Code, Codex), safe/robust browser integration to speed up UX/QA testing, teams cli to speed up security reviews and parallelize bug hunting and fixes, and secrets cli with touch id integration so DX is extremely fast.We also noticed that small things like installing marketplaces, or sharing resources per projects (skills, plugins, secrets, subagents, workflows, rules, permission groups, hooks) took a lot of time so we put everything under ~/.agents and supported multi-layer dot-agents repos, auto layering and syncing system, user and projec

Ask HN: How is your org managing PR review load as AI multiplies code output?We are facing flooding and surge in PRs across the teams. AI reviewer tools are good, but not exactly helping in efficiency. Almost all developers are experiencing velocity gains in programming but it's not resulting into eventual productivity or velocity in roadmap. How are you or your org dealing with all this?

Have you switched to AI for heart monitoring during physical activity yet?Here's how AI can monitor your heart during physical activity AI (ACCO AI watch): your myocardium is lacking oxygen (HOV — myocardial oxygen consumption, CMBV — coronary blood flow volume); the heart beats but pumps blood inefficiently (EWK — left ventricular efficiency, CPO — cardiac power output); one of the ventricles is overloaded (LVSW — left ventricular stroke work, RVSW — right ventricular stroke work); the risk of thrombosis is increasing due to thick blood (FIB — fibrinogen activity surrogate); you are on the verge of dehydration, and the heart fills with blood worse than it should (CVP — central venous pressure, GEDV — global end-diastolic volume). Six risks. Standard fitness trackers see none of them.Measurements are taken every 5 minutes. Based on that data, the watch generates real-time alerts with three parts: Implication (what's happening to your heart right now), Evaluation (green/yellow/red zone), and Suggestion (slow down, drink water, stop, or change exercise type).
