Show HN: Username.md – a signed, agent-readable identity page you ownhttps://username.md/Hi HN. I'm Chris Bergeron, an SRE by profession but a general technologist in my spare time. Projects I've built have been featured in books, frontpaged on news aggregators and chronicled on my blog.Today, I'm announcing https://username.md !username.md is a single identity URL: username.md/ - that content-negotiates on the `Accept` header. It serves an HTML profile page; an agent or curl gets Markdown, JSON, JSON-LD, or a JWT. The same URL serves different representations based on request header. So the page a human reads and the data a machine parses never drift apart.The interesting part is that every response can be signed and verified. Each handle gets an ED25519 keypair (private key AES-GCM-wrapped at rest), publishes a did:web document, and serves RFC 9421 signed responses. Claims about you — GitHub, a domain you control, an ATProto handle — are W3C Verifiable Credentials, verified before they're shown (e.g. domain ownership via a DNS-TXT challenge). So "this is really them" can

Show HN: Pickle – token efficient AI agent browser with policy-gated actionshttps://picklebrowser.com/I use agents for a lot of my own work, but whenever they access my browser they end up wasting a lot of tokens reading HTML, so I tried building a browser that simplifies webpage content for them.Pickle is an agent browser and it has all the features a regular browser has (tabs, search history, bookmarks, etc.), but pages load as compact structured data instead of raw HTML to reduce token usage.Overview for those curious:It's policy-gated (blocked domains, actions that need approval like purchases) and every action is logged, so you're always able to see what your agent is doing and can take over at any time.It's also compatible with weaker/local models as it auto-routes by model strength. i.e. small local models are limited to picking actions one step at a time so they don't hallucinate actions or make up element IDs. Stronger models can plan multiple steps ahead.On the token compression side, I've been seeing around 32x less token usage.Other useful features: - shared notebook that y

Launch HN: Keet (YC S24) – An app to create video courses on anythinghttps://www.trykeet.com/Hi HN! We’re Zack and Tommy the Co-Founders of Keet (https://trykeet.com). We are building a mobile app that generates courses on any topic, with short videos for explanation and games for reinforcement. Courses mirror a real curriculum to help you learn over an extended period of time.Tommy and I met in linear algebra class in college and spent the next 4 years taking classes together. Our friendship was formed around learning new things. In school, someone else designs the curriculum, delivers the content, and writes the assessments. All you have to do is show up. Learning without this structure was frustrating, and there was a lot of friction to get started.Zack has a coffee obsession and struggled to assemble youtube videos, conversations with ChatGPT, and the books he was reading into a coherent understanding of all of the different variables that go into brewing a cup of coffee. His attempts gave him the freedom to follow his curiosity, but the instructional design was difficult.

Show HN: Overlay – Design with your React components and CSS tokens in your IDEhttps://www.overlay.studio/Hey HN, I'm Francesco. I've spent the last year building Overlay, a UI editor that runs inside your IDE and renders your actual React components (not a redraw of them), using your real CSS tokens.I'm a design engineer and, especially with AI, I found myself spending more and more time in the codebase rather than in Figma. Trying out ideas in code with AI is a lot of fun, but there are specific moments where I need to sketch things out on a classical visual canvas. The problem is, when you work mostly with code and your codebase moves faster than your Figma library, stopping to import your latest components into Figma is an energy-killer.So I built Overlay to get quick access to my React components on a canvas. It's a VS Code extension, so opening the canvas takes seconds. Your components are already there, and you're designing with the real thing: the editor is a normal DOM document, not a WebGL canvas. From there, working with AI (via MCP) is also a breeze. The agent already has acces

Show HN: Fun Web page 3D visualization of laundry room statushttps://www.aisloperator.com/brickoven-estates-laundry-room/By default, this shows simulated data. It can show real data, but we don't want to hug-of-death the laundry company IoT.Click on a machine, to see how the apartment building attendant responds to people leaving their laundry for hours in high-contention machines.This was a collaboration with Claude Code. Sometimes Claude wasted time frustratingly, sometimes Claude saved lots of time. The end product is good enough, the Easter eggs were fun, and it was completed in less time than I could've done it myself.

How ESA mimics and models the 2026 total solar eclipsehttps://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Engineering_Technology/How_ESA_mimics_and_models_the_2026_total_solar_eclipseOn 12 August 2026, parts of Europe will experience a total solar eclipse. With the Sun's bright disc covered, its surrounding atmosphere – the solar corona – will become visible to the naked eye. Unfortunately, total solar eclipses are rare and last at most a few minutes, giving scientists little time to study the Sun’s enigmatic halo.

Ask HN: Is this normal HN ranking?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49239107I came back looking for a TechCrunch story about SV undermining democracy [0], and was surprised to find it had already dropped off the front page.Found it on page 2, but it's ranking was lower (44) than articles that it should seemingly outrank—based on comments (211), points (247) and time posted (12 hours ago). See screenshot [1].For instance, at 38 is an older article with only 3 comments and 29 points.At 41 was a significantly older article with only 38 comments and 125 points.So, this article is ranking lower than even a much older article with roughly half the votes and ~5.5x fewer comments.Is there some other "bonus" or penalty for articles (beyond those that are overtly problematic per HN guidelines)?[0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49232221[1] https://imgur.com/a/t4Cn2Fi

Show HN: Try Benzi – A coding harness/agent beating Claude Code itself on Sonnethttps://benzi.fly.dev/aboutHi y'all. Been working on something that should've been made a long time ago imo. It compiles codebases into O(1) hashmaps that the agent queries to discover the structure of your code/answer questions/write code.It also does complete static analysis checks on any writes the agent makes.Don't take my word for it though. Here are the benchmarks: https://benzi.fly.dev/benchmark. on 2/20 tests, Claude Code (mostly Sonnet on one task) regressed or timed out. Benzi didn't because of course, it has a map it can query and not get lost in the sauce. On the other 18 it is cheaper, faster, or often both.Would love to get some early adoption and criticism!(Only available on Windows for now. soz. and also keep an eye on the benchmarking page; I think I can push it far more -- no promises, still work in progress. Haven't thoroughly tested greenfielding experience either.)(another note: VS Code extension/website is running DeepSeek V4 flash. not Sonnet. Everything mostly built with CC Sonnet tho )

Show HN: 49IDE – 2D Grid IDE for managing many agents, Git trees, issueshttps://github.com/alpbahadur/49AgentsBeads tables (Steve Yegge's) for issue tracking. Can view git trees, terminals, issue tables, notes, and files all on one screen. Can connect multiple machines via private network (like tailscale)I had this issue where i really did not like the when i had many terminals open at the same time - when you try to code with 6+ agents at the same time, across, say, 3 projects, you get huge context fragmentation. I am a visual person, and its way easier for me to remember where things are if I placed them there - I build this 2D canvas for myself initially and then decided to open-source - the main goal there is to let me (or the user) to place the terminals, github trees (to track agent's progress across branches on different repos), beads issues tables across many machines all on the same screen. Most important note, once again, is since its a 2D canvas, it feels more like a citybuilder where i I decide where to put stuff and thus remember exactly where what is running. It boosts my efficie
