Automatic documentation screenshots (with bounding-boxes) via codexhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45627141I'd like to share this great documentation trick with codex. Our product's documentation website has lots of screenshots of the UI, often with highlighted sections. I got codex to automate creating them whenever we added a new feature or they need updating.Pre-requisites- codex (maybe claude code, but I haven't tried it) - MCPs: chrome-devtools- [browserframe.sh](https://gist.github.com/CamDavidsonPilon/f381cfbaf983949fdf4b62c6790a8c3b) installed locally- ImageMagick 7 installed locally- codex has read/write access to your documentation site (and ideally web frontend to better discover interactions, but maybe not necessary).I use a custom prompt in ~/.codex/prompts to generate the following:```### Adding screenshots (Always do if there is a web UI component to the request)1. Open http://localhost:3000 using chrome-devtools__navigate_page to open our local development website.2. Find the page we need.3.

Show HN: PAO Trainer – A small app I built to practice PAO memory systems [video]https://www.youtube.com/shorts/S_nBfn87uRoI’ve been experimenting with the Person–Action–Object (PAO) system — a memory technique that helps you memorize large sets of numbers by turning them into vivid mental images and short stories.To make my own training smoother, I built a small app that helps me:Assign a person, action, and object to each numberGenerate random PAO combinations to visualize as storiesPractice recall with flashcards, quizzes, and timed drillsIt’s helped me get faster and more consistent when memorizing number sequences — and made training a lot more fun.Here’s a short demo of how I’m using it: https://youtube.com/shorts/S_nBfn87uRoI’d love feedback or ideas from anyone interested in memory systems, learning tools, or visualization training — especially on how to make the practice even more effective or gamified.Oct 16, 2025 2:47 PM

Show HN: Trott – search,sort,extract social media videos(ig,yt,tiktok)https://trott.hattimatimlabs.inI built Trott out of frustration with my own “Saved” folders on Instagram and YouTube. I’d save reels and shorts—workout tips, recipes, travel spots—thinking I’d find them again later. But, like most people, I ended up with a black hole of unsorted videos: no search, no filters, and if I ever did find the right video again, I’d have to dig through the whole thing just to get that one detail I needed.When I tried looking for solutions, I found only genre-specific apps or tools that demanded manual uploads or new workflows. None felt like they understood how real users behave or save content. So I decided to build Trott.What makes Trott different?You can share any Instagram Reel or YouTube Short (TikTok support launches next week) to Trott, straight from your phone’s native share menu—no manual uploads.Trott uses AI to extract relevant info automatically (ingredients, places, products, etc.) and sorts everything for you.It’s fully searchable with natural language.

Show HN: Kexa.io – Open-Source IT Security, Compliance and AI-Poweredhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45590894Hi HN,We're building Kexa.io (https://github.com/kexa-io/Kexa), an open-source tool developed in France (incubated at Euratech Cyber Campus) to help teams automate the often tedious process of verifying IT security and compliance. Keeping track of configurations across diverse assets (servers, K8s, cloud resources) and ensuring they meet security baselines (like CIS benchmarks, etc.) manually is challenging and error-prone.Our goal with the open-source core is to provide a straightforward way to define checks, scan your assets, and get clear reports on your security posture. You can define your own rules or use common standards.We'd love for the HN community to check out the open-source project on GitHub. Feedback on the concept or the current tool is highly welcome, and a star if you find it interesting helps others discover the project!If you're interested check out website we also have an offer with dashboard, no-code rule builder,..Oct 15, 2025 11:39 AM

Show HN: Coinstate View crypto prices across multiple exchangeshttps://coinstate.coHey HN,Last month, I wanted to buy some Bitcoin and noticed something strange: the price was different on every exchange. Unlike the stock market, crypto doesn’t have one official price.I tried using CoinMarketCap and other sites to compare prices, but they didn’t really help. So, I built Coinstate a simple, free tool that lets you see and compare live crypto prices from many exchanges in one place.It currently pulls data from Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, KuCoin, HTX, Bybit, and Gate.io, with Crypto.com and Gemini coming soon. You can filter by trading pair, sort by price, and see near real-time updates, no signups, ads, or paywalls.It’s a small side project, but it’s helped me find better prices when buying or selling. I’d love your feedback or ideas for improvement.You can also sort by highest last, bid, or ask price. Here’s an example for Bitcoin: https://coinstate.co/compare/btc?sort=lastPriceOct 14, 2025 4:21 PM

Show HN: Free API to extract PDF datahttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45581760Hi HN,Like everyone, I'm working on an product that uses LLMs to extract data from photos and documents. Part of the processing pipeline is extracting data from PDFs as raw text or a raster image.As part of our leadgen strategy, we've opened our REST API that lets you process pages of a PDF. The API is completely free to use anonymously, but is rate limited to 1 page per 30 seconds. Creating a free account removes this restriction.The two endpoints are:- https://extract.dev/api/pages/extract/raster - Rasterize a page of a PDF- https://extract.dev/api/pages/extract/text - Extract text from a page of a PDFBoth have the same request format: { "file": "https://assets.extract-cdn.com/data/hd-receipt.pdf", "page": 1 } I've outlined more of the documentation here: https://extract.dev/docsUnder the hood, the API is using Poppler to extract text and rasterize pages. Note that the text extraction functionality extracts actual text encoded in the PDF, and does not employ an OCR model. Give it a sOct 14, 2025 4:10 PM

Show HN: Single API for keyword and semantic and recency (no more duct-tape)https://coderswap.ai/Hey HN! Like many of you, I've built the same search infrastructure multiple times: Elasticsearch for keywords, Pinecone for vectors, Redis for recent items, and a mess of Python trying to merge results. The pattern we all know: python# Sound familiar? keyword_results = elasticsearch.search(query) vector_results = pinecone.query(embedding) recent_results = redis.get_recent() # ...200 lines of merge logic, score normalization, dedup After building this three times at different companies, we decided to combine everything into one API. Not revolutionary, just practical - handle keyword matching, semantic search, and recency scoring without the orchestration layer. Example with "ORA-12545 error from last week": The system recognizes "ORA-12545" needs exact matching (keyword), understands "error" conceptually (semantic), boosts recent results (temporal), and returns a single unified response.
