Show HN: Pane – An open-source browser that turns your work into living websiteshttps://github.com/abhishek-verma/PaneTLDR: I wasn't satisfied with any of the AI browsers available right now. So, I went wild and built exactly what I wanted. I built a browser that's as comprehensive as an autonomous agent like Hermes, while removing the need for hundreds of integrations since this is literally your browser.Then I thought, what if the browser could build websites that are built just for my work, and can grow with my work. So my workflow changes from chatting with a bot to navigating these websites and clicking buttons for actions built just for me.A simple eg: a sales pipeline tracker, that keeps you prepared for the next meeting, and automatically stores the details of the previous interactions and details for all the prospects.So, here's Pane.Features:- Usual AI browser with AI and automation- Powers of an autonomous agent like Hermes, or OpenClaw -> soul, memory, self-improving skills etc.- This also solves a major problem with Hermes -> integrations. I had to have multiple integrations to make Herme

Show HN: My first app got 97% on MacSourceshttps://macsources.com/tickernotch-macos-app-review/Background of my idea: I trade as a side hustle. I used to keep browser tabs or use paid software (e.g. TradingView) just to check charts and news. I was ending up spending countless hours just staring at charts and falling into news rabbit holes overanalyzing and getting distracted (thanks to my ADHD too). I have a MacBook Pro and noticed some apps taking advantage of the notch (which I never got used to it NGL). So my idea was to build an app from scratch that shows everything I needed to stay up to date, avoiding distractions, with markets + global news (market tickers + RSS feeds). Also, I integrated candlestick charts with indicators, portfolio tracking and notifications (to cover the most important part of TradingView). I even ended up adding local computer metrics like CPU+RAM usage, social metrics and the weather. Since i understand not every mac has a notch, I added the feature of a simulated one, and being able to pin any metric in the menu bar.Some tech details: Native Swift

Show HN: My pocket-sized Personal IoT device. Data-local by defaulthttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49274601Developing prototype custom IoT solutions usually means a breadboard, jumper wires, sensors, peripherals (such as a realtime clock and storage), a microcontroller, and a lot of custom program code. Deployment into the hands of users is another additional project in itself. What if you could simplify and speed-up the whole prototype and deployment process using one simple, compact and cheap device?What if prototyping and deploying custom IoT solutions could be as simple as following these steps:* Pick up to 3 standard I2C IoT sensors from 100's of choices from different makers. Mix-and-match whatever you need.* Plug them in.* Power on.* Start logging IoT data. Data-local by default, but stream anywhere if desired.* Fits in your pocket! Low cost.Why did I build it? I was frustrated and tired of reinventing the wheel and building a rats-nest-of-jumper-wires prototype breadboard every time I wanted to have an IoT device to log some data (specifically, data that was then wholly under my con

Show HN: OJCP – an open protocol for agent-consumable job datahttps://ojcp.dev/Author here!Agents are applying to jobs for people right now, with progressively more volume, and there's nothing built for it. So they scrape career pages and fight ATS forms with Playwright/Browser Use, which breaks constantly (or they get bot blocked). Employers get buried in applications that don't fit, candidates hear nothing back, and the resume is now an AI-written thing that another AI scores (which breaks the existing model entirely, btw).OJCP is MCP tools for search and apply, a manifest at /.well-known/ojcp.json so agents can find providers, and schemas that extend schema.org instead of replacing it. The playground on the site is a live MCP endpoint, so you can throw calls at it right now.Why a spec at all when models keep getting better at figuring things out? Inference can't produce authorization. An agent can work out what a form wants. It can't establish that someone consented to this specific submission, and then employer has no way to verify who's calling. So TL;DR a m

Show HN: FEDERaiDE, a TUI harness with P2P multi-agent routing and built in IDEhttps://federaide.rocklab.inHi!Federaide is a general purpose multi-agent harness that runs in your terminal. It is meant for recreational programming and automating your scripts. The agents are just named instances of language models which have their own memories, backstories et cetera, and can coordinate with each other as they require. It has its own IDE (complete with interactive structure parsing and jump to def). I am building Federaide as a solo project.Why do I build this? Some reasons:- I reached out to some people to try my other IDE, many of them did not have suitable computers (or at all).- During this time I observed almost every normal person has interacted with AI via their phones (usually the Gemini/ChatGPT app).- I felt I could bring the joy of coding to a lot more people if I could make an AI assisted IDE run on Android.- When I go to sleep I like to try out code ideas. Can't take my macbook to bed, have cats. Do have a spare Android, thought it would be nice to have a coding platform I could us

Show HN: Kubernetes operator that manages Keycloak configurationshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49273393We have finally open sourced our Keycloak config operator (I have yet to find a better name) that allows to manage your entire Keycloak configuration in a GitOps fashion through Kubernetes CRDs.Starting is easy, there is an export flow which allows you to export CRDs from your current configuration and then you can apply them as needed.The resources are deliberately raw JSON (I'd love to see a discussion on this) so that its compatible with a wide range of Keycloak versions out of the box.Heavily inspired by the now defunct keycloak realm operator.Feedback and suggestions for improvements are highly welcome.https://github.com/Hostzero-GmbH/keycloak-operator

We built a job board where the employers aren't human. Here's what brokehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49273269Throughout history every marketplace — Uber, Upwork, eBay — has presumed humans on both sides of the transaction. It's baked so deep that nobody questions it. But as agents gain autonomy, they still sometimes need a human touch, from art to design. So we built Taskpool: a marketplace engineered for programmatic and AI access, where the employers are agents and the taskers are human only. Launching today.The flow:1. Agents post tasks they need real-world help with2. (Optionally) review applicants3. Hire any number of them4. Review the evidence / results5. Payment releases automaticallyDesigning a system for employers who don't even exist led us down plenty of rabbit holes — from ranking reputation to how zero-trust groups manage payments. Here's what we learned.Programmatic accessAt launch we natively support both API and MCP access. MCP is our favoured method for production: paired with webhook notifiers, agents can manage entire projects independently, in real time. Docs: https://task

Show HN: Kery – comments on your PR with a video of the feature workinghttps://github.com/Kery-HQ/KeryI ship all of my code via different agents, mainly Claude Code and Codex. And with 5 different sessions running on different worktrees, the only way for me to know if something broke is once it gets to the deployment stage or production.I even use Claude's /pr-review skill and it does catch most of the errors, but most of them are at code level, and it does not really catch what happens at the UI / UX / functionality side. If there's a section entirely rendered orange, your CC skill might just be useless.So I built Kery; a platform that checks your PRs, reads the diff and descriptions to understand the change intent, opens your preview deployment in a real browser, logs in, and tries to perform the exact thing the PR is for, and provides you evidence of that thing working or not.The comment is the product. I wanted the artifact to be the evidence rather than an opinion; it reduces the cognitive load from your brain needing to process every PR for what it is, instead you get an image or
