Show HN: Fast, reliable MCP for LinkedIn, Uber, Venmo (r/w)https://candle.fiMy friend and I have built a tool that can replicate mobile app API traffic precisely. We then wrap the app’s functionality in a standardized API and route traffic through a local proxy running on your computer or phone, so your traffic can’t be fingerprinted.We’re building an open platform around these connections, starting with a macOS app y’all can try for free. It lets you securely log in to your accounts and then exposes an MCP with one-click install for Claude. We’re most excited about enabling “write” actions, for example asking Claude to:- automate your biz ops on LinkedIn - schedule a ride to the airport with Uber - settle up with your friends on Venmo

NASA’s Perseverance Captures Panorama at ‘Arbot’https://science.nasa.gov/photojournal/nasas-perseverance-captures-panorama-at-arbot/Description NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover used its Mastcam-Z camera to capture this panorama of an area nicknamed “Arbot” on April 5, 2026, the 1,882nd Martian day, or sol, of the mission, during the rover’s deepest push west beyond Jezero Crater. Made of 46 images, the panorama offers one of the richest geological vistas of the […]

Show HN: Gigacatalyst – Extend your SaaS with an embedded AI builderhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48110593Hi HN, I’m Namanyay from Gigacatalyst (link: https://gigacatalyst.com/). Gigacatalyst allows sales, CS, and users to build one-off features, so your SaaS can support long-tail customer workflows and engineers aren’t pulled away from the roadmap.When you sell software to large businesses, you realize that each customer needs their own workflow and features. Traditionally, this either means long engineering roadmaps or the customers end up using workarounds.But what if everyone could build their critical missing features just by talking to an AI? That’s what we do at Gigacatalyst. We provide an AI customization layer for your customers, CS team, and sales team to build these missing critical workflows without needing any engineers at all. Think Lovable, but built on top of YOUR platform.We connect to your product's APIs, learn your data model and design system, and let non-technical users build governed apps via natural language - inside your product, under your brand.Here’s what it look

Show HN: MosaicQR – QR codes that double as pixel art of any simple imagehttps://mosaicqr.comI wanted to make a QR code for a separate business (a software company for MEP engineers) where the QR code itself looked like the logo. I found several tools online, but none that produced the result I was looking for.I made a tool that powers MosaicQR.com to achieve the balance of aesthetics and functional scanning that I wanted. This website generates QR codes where the module layout looks like the inputted image. The free version auto-fetches the favicon from any URL you enter.Curious what people think.

Can you help reconcile my first/second-hand LLM Experience with HN's Experience?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48102861I've made an account as a long-time lurker because I am hoping y'all could help reconcile my experience in my company/team with what seems to be the wise HN consensus around LLMs.My Background (Software Engineer II):I've been writing software professionally for >10 years and grew up coding games/websites for fun; did my undergraduate in C.S./C.E., and did some time in ML research and such. Right now I'm on the back-end/DevOps team - my teammates are all Senior Staff/Principal Engineer (one is almost double my age lol!) and we have a pretty standard tech stack (NodeJS, AWS, C++, etc) with 95% brownfield development at a large but not FAANG-like company. I've had my current job for >6 years and out of ~20 in our department I'm the third newest!I'd say I'm a pretty stereotypical engineer AKA "a total nerd" with private side projects mostly around implementing computational geometry or procedural simulation papers in Rust, sometimes working on a lil website tool we use daily.

Show HN: Inspection Credit – read your inspection, draft the negotiationhttps://www.inspectioncredit.comHi HN. I built Inspection Credit because the inspection-response window in a home purchase is one of the worst-designed parts of the entire transaction.You get a 60 to 90 page inspection report at 11pm. You have 5 days to respond. Half the report is photos of outlets. A third is non-issues. The 3 or 4 things that actually matter are buried on page 47 next to a missing smoke detector. Your inspector legally cannot advise on negotiation. Your agent makes commission when you close, not when you walk. So you decide, alone, in a panic.The product takes the PDF and returns a packet with the negotiable findings, a credit-request letter, an escalation script for seller pushback, walk-away guidance that references your state's standard inspection-response form, and a UPL-defensive disclaimer. $79, refundable if the report turns up nothing worth negotiating.A few engineering notes:(1) The aggregator sites (HomeAdvisor, Fixr, Angi, HomeGuide) disagree by 30 to 50 percent on the same repair scope.

Coding might go the way of woodworkinghttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48096572At one point well before the age of industrialization all furniture was hand crafted so to speak by trained artisans. As time went on they started working together in workshops, had more formal training processes through guilds and perhaps most important saw improved work flows through specialization, improved tooling and the use of ever more sophisticated jigs and templates.Industrialization took things to another lever. Mastery meant skill in using ever more complicated and industrialized machinery. Profit seeking behavior set the focus on automation, repeatability and perhaps most important reducing the skill necessary to do the job.Today nearly all furniture is made in factories using not wood but rather sawdust and wood particles glued and pressed together. The process is deskilled, if anything the skilled work is in designing, manufacturing and tuning the machines that make the furniture, not in making furniture itself.We still teach woodworking in schools, oddly enough though we

Show HN: Objo Studiohttps://objo.devObjo Studio is a new development environment for building desktop and command line apps. It has a visual designer, a debugger, a compiler, and a modern BASIC-like language called ObjoBasic. The aim is simple: make it enjoyable to build real applications for macOS, Windows and Linux and learn how to program.I've been working on Objo Studio in one shape or another since about 2019. I've always loved tools that let you move quickly from idea to working prototype and that abstract a lot of complexity and get out of your way. This has been tried before (VisualBasic, Xojo, etc) but have either been abandoned, become expensive or lost focus on hobbyists.The whole stack is written in C#. There's a custom stack-based VM that is roughly on-par with Python for speed but this is not a high performance tool. It's an all-in-one IDE for visually developing cross-platform desktop apps. It tries to make it simple for users, abstracting runtimes and libraries to help newcomers learn but also let them th

Copilot "auto-pilot" system instructions making models worsthttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48096339I use copilot for work, and I have this fight with models all the time because the model has an urgency to get things done,Sometimes I need to explain an issue, elaborate on the constraints, ask the model to research what's going on but I have to fight the model NON STOP to not start writing code... the solution is not to make the code pass where it's broken "fixing" all the unit test to now pass where they fail after the "fix"...To provide the context so a good solution is done and taking into consideration EVERYTHING THAT needs to be done I need to "have a talk" with the model so I can present all the things to consider...Today reading the output I got the two pieces below... first... this totally breaks the model for anything serious.. Why are you pushing the model to do something when I want it to do something else? I'M PAYING FOR IT,But now in the middle of this RANT I notice the model mention that the "Auto pilot" mode is actually pressuring it to assume things and move on to com

Show HN: Learn2Burp – Surgery-free solution for R-CPDhttps://learn2burp.comR-CPD (Retrograde Cricopharyngeus Dysfunction) is a condition where a muscle in the throat never learned to relax properly, making it impossible to burp. It affects more people than you'd think and causes significant discomfort, extreme bloating, and social anxiety. The most common medical treatment is a botox injection, but it's expensive and not accessible to everyone.I'm a Software Engineer from Germany and suffered from R-CPD my entire life before curing myself last year. I wanted to make the self-teaching process easier for everyone who comes after me, so I built Learn2Burp. It walks you through exercises with video guidance, builds a workout plan around your specific situation, and includes a burp tracker. There's also a wiki covering the questions I wish I'd had answers to when I started.If you or someone you know has R-CPD, there's also a dedicated r/noburp community worth checking out.

Show HN: adamsreview – better multi-agent PR reviews for Claude Codehttps://github.com/adamjgmiller/adamsreviewI built adamsreview, a Claude Code plugin that runs deeper, multi-stage PR reviews using parallel sub-agents, validation passes, persistent JSON state, and optional ensemble review via Codex CLI and PR bot comments.On my own PRs, it has been catching dramatically more real bugs than Claude’s built-in /review, /ultrareview, CodeRabbit, Greptile, and Codex’s built-in review, while producing fewer false positives.adamsreview is six Claude Code slash commands packaged as a plugin: review, codex-review, add, promote, walkthrough, and fix. I modeled it after the built-in /review command and extended it meaningfully.You can clear context between review stages because state is stored in JSON artifacts on disk, with built-in scripts for keeping it updated.The walkthrough command uses Claude’s AskUserQuestion feature to walk you through uncertain findings or items needing human review one by one. Then, the fix command dispatches per-fix-group agents and re-reviews the work with Opus, reverting a

Ask HN: What's the most compelling paranormal evidence you found online?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48083228Interested to see what this community might come up with, or whether it gets instantly trashed on for being too whimsical of a question. I don't mean aliens or UFOs necessarily, but more ghosts, hauntings, skinwalkers, Missing 411, Bigfoot, and other sorts of entities that are of Earth but not earthly by our understanding. Do you think there exists phenomena that can't be explained by our current knowledge of creatures, humans, and science?Years ago I stumbled upon this channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ghostsofcarmelmaine451 which is a bit notorious already on Reddit and other paranormal threads but has always been on the obscure side. Even with a TV show feature they had, though I haven't seen any clips of it or know where you can watch it: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt32872957/.There's a lot of noise but there was one video in particular that was unlisted and is currently removed entitled "DAYMARES", which contains some of the most interesting footage or paranormal entities I've eve

Show HN: Super ISO Updaterhttps://github.com/JoshuaVandaele/SuperISOUpdaterI built Super ISO Updater (SISOU), a tool that keeps bootable ISOs on a Ventoy drive automatically updated.This project started a few years back because I got tired of manually checking for new releases of the various troubleshooting tools and installers I kept on my Ventoy drive.SISOU automates checking for updates, downloading them, verifying the downloads, and storing everything in a neatly-sorted directory structure.It’s open source (GPL-2.0-or-later), written in Python, and works on both Linux and Windows.One note: on Python 3.14, libtorrent currently needs to be installed through your system package manager (or built manually), since upstream hasn’t published on pypi yet. On Arch Linux, the package is libtorrent-rasterbar.I would love to hear what you think. You can try it out by installing `sisou` using pip/pipx/uv. Issues and PRs are welcome!

Show HN: Shoehorn – Backstage without the maintenance overheadhttps://shoehorn.devI'm Anders, co-founder of Shoehorn (https://shoehorn.dev/).For about a year I was genuinely excited about Backstage. Saw the Spotify demo, thought "I want that too". Turned out it wasn't as easy. But to be fair, Backstage is a great piece of software. Powerful, flexible, and if you have a dedicated developer team to run it, you can build something amazing on top of it.The catch is exactly that: you need a dedicated team. Most companies don't have one. Or they do, and that team would rather be solving product problems than maintaining the platform that helps everyone else solve theirs. We wanted something that gave teams 90% of the value with 10% of the operational overhead.We built Shoehorn out of frustration.Goals from the start:1. A great UI, API first, Terraform and CLI: That's what most users actually want.2. Surface problems clearly: No silent failures, no "why didn't my service show up." If something's wrong, you see it.3. Automate the boring stuff: The data is already in GitHub,
