Show HN: Codewindow – Picture in picture for terminal agentshttps://codewindow.app/Hey HN - when I first started using Arc browser from the Browser Company, I loved the picture in picture feature they got for videos running in the background. When you switch desktops or windows, the video would just pop up and keep playing in a different desktop and you were able to move the widget around or size it.I found myself having a similar need for coding agents. This is because coding agents like Codex are running longer and longer. If I do not watch it continously, I miss the bad practices it implements or the bugs it introduces.However it is kind of boring to do that too. So I default to dealing with other tasks or just scrolling X.com sometimes.So I built a widget where it reads the terminal for coding agents (Codex, Claude Code and Pi) and when you leave the terminal, it shows you a widget for each agent running with its live actions. From different windows, you can check what it is doing.Demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9elzhDGGJRgWebsite: https://codewindow.aAug 18, 2026 2:06 PM

Show HN: My agents kept hallucinating APIs, so I built them a headless IDEhttps://context-engine.appI built Context Engine last year mostly out of frustration. Agents impressed me and made me angry at the same time: they kept calling APIs that don't exist, re-implementing APIs already defined in the codebase, and getting stuck in write-compile-rewrite loops. Sometimes they seemed very intelligent and sometimes extremely stupid. But they aren't stupid: take any brilliant engineer, give them a whiteboard, and ask them to implement a new feature in a large codebase they have never seen. And for agents, every session is a project they have never seen.The problem is that agents lack proper tooling. They work with plain text, like human engineers in 1995, in the pre-IDE era, and they face the same problems engineers faced 30 years ago. Where a human engineer just hovers over a symbol or presses F12, an agent spends thousands of tokens to get the same result. So I built the IDE part they were missing, without the editor part they don't need — an IDE headless in the same sense as a headless Aug 18, 2026 2:01 PM

Is there room for an AI-powered webmail service built on a single-letter domain?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49345378Hi HN, I’m a solo, non-technical founder working on W, an AI-powered webmail service built on a premium single-letter domain (https://w.xyz).I secured the domain and used AI agents to build out a functional proof-of-concept for the client. To handle infrastructure, I routed the application logic through Mailgun. Internally, the prototype is fully operational — emails successfully send and receive from @w.xyz handles. W combines a highly optimized interface with built-in AI capabilities like Spam Scanning, Smart Reply and Text Summaries.I currently have a 30+ organic waitlist as I finish the final touches and prepare to move away from the prototype stack.My questions for the community:Concept Validation: Given how crowded the email space is, do you see a viable market for an AI-native premium webmail service, or do you believe the switching cost from Gmail/Outlook too high for users?Scaling Roadmap: As a non-technical founder moving away from an AI-generated prototype stack, what are thAug 18, 2026 1:30 PM
