Coding Model Ox Alpha Retains Every Prompt: You Cannot Name Company Holding ThemOx Alpha, an anonymous AI coding model with 1M-token context, launched free on OpenRouter August 20 -- retaining every developer prompt under terms conflicting between the per-model notice and the ...
A mysterious free AI model is impressing developers. And nobody knows who made it.Ox Alpha, a mysterious AI model, debuted on OpenRouter on Thursday. Its origins are unknown, though some suspect a Chinese lab.

Idea to reduce AI token use at large orgsThere must be many near-identical repeats of high-token tasks.Perhaps for high-token tasks, first an automated search of prior work within the firm, parsing what's already done or not done, and only prompting AI for the new components, then assembling the components before serving to the user.If lengthy components were already done. the overall output might be faster.Is this an add-on to OpenRouter, or standaloone?

Enshitification Comes for CursorSometimes I feel like the last person on HN that's still using Cursor for development work. But if anyone is curious - its getting a lot shittier, quickly.The entire application seems to exist to steer you towards using Grok and whatever new product Cursor's team has pumped out this week. You're constantly prompted to switch to using a Cloud agent, including the UI seemingly changing as you're working which caused me to accidentally select a cloud agent instead of my local system a few times. There are daily pop-ups in the app to check out this and that new thing, these are at least pretty easy to close and ignore. This morning Cursor decided to select a new Grok model by default without prompting, which I didn't notice until it had spent 10 minutes burning tokens on a simple bug investigation that Opus resolved in 30 seconds.I finally bit the bullet and setup Pi with Open Router the other day. I still prefer the UI of Cursor but this is like death by a thousand cuts.
Show HN: Building a full agentic harness around a 4B model is hardAround 3 months ago, we were thinking why none of the iPhone apps running an LLM are built as a full harness (as in inference + agentic loop + context management + tools + MCP servers and etc.). It became more interesting when we noticed even the new Siri is not fully on device (and not available in EU for that matter).Having built a few agentic products around a custom harness in the past, we thought this shouldn't be that hard. well, we underestimated how "dumb" a 4B model can be, especially when it comes to tool calling. :DWe tried 8 different models and we settled on Qwen 3.5 4B and we used every trick we knew to make this model behave. well, it works!It's not gonna win in any intelligence or speed benchmark, but it can do actual useful work and it really is an on device, private, full agentic harness. That said, you can still connect your OpenRouter or OpenAI API keys if that's what you prefer.Please go check it out :) You need an iPhone 15 pro or above.
I made a secure way for agents to request secrets from you using HyperDHTHi all,I kinda got sick of having to give secrets to my agents and all the potential leakage in the pipeline (with the harness, the model router, the model provider, the training set, the chat application etc etc) so I decided to make peardrop.fyi - this tool allows your agent to declaratively generate secret request pages/links which you can fill in via web or CLI. The agent can determine a script that runs once the values are received or can put them in a target folder. This is useful if you want to put something in your machine vault/keychain without either giving access to the credentials or the browser to the agent.here is the repo: https://github.com/smashah/peardrop(cli, core and self-hostable relay are all open source)
