Show HN: Keen Code – an agentic-engineered coding agenthttps://github.com/mochow13/keen-codeHello community!I am here to share a coding agent I have built solo from scratch using agentic engineering. Written in Go, it's a proper coding agent, has features you expect from a useful agent for your daily work, with a minimal and simple UI.I have named it Keen Code. The repo is here: https://github.com/mochow13/keen-codeEven though it started as an experiment, it is now a full-fledged coding agent for real software engineering work. It supports multiple providers, skills, MCPs, multi-agent orchestration through subagents, automatic compaction, etc.I have been using it for real production-grade work myself, and also for developing itself.Notably, I have worked on two separate ideas in this coding agent:1. Turn MemoryIn a multi-turn conversation, tool outputs are removed, only tool call traces are retained. Within a single agent loop, agent sees full tool results but in the next turn, it doesn't see the tool results anymore.The greatest benefit of this approach is that a lot of tool

Show HN: OptiQra – Open-source AI website optimization and intelligence platformhttps://github.com/armin5872/OptiQraHi HN,I've been building OptiQra for quite a while, and I finally finished the desktop version.OptiQra is an open-source website intelligence and optimization platform. It can crawl and analyze websites or local projects, identify SEO/AEO/GEO, accessibility, performance and technical issues, explain them with AI, and automatically fix them.The desktop version is where the project gets particularly interesting. It can run locally, work with local projects, operate offline for analysis that doesn't require cloud services, and run scheduled scans in the background.The workflow is roughly:URL/project → crawl → analyze → understand the issues → inspect them on the actual site → fix them → verify the result.It also has a fairly visual crawler, including live 2D and 3D crawl trees, and the AI interface is customizable rather than being limited to a single assistant personality.I built the UI and CSS myself rather than using Tailwind/shadcn, and the project has grown considerably beyond a simp

Show HN: Run your GitHub Actions locally or self-hosted in isolated microvmshttps://preloop.devHey HN. I've been frustrated with Github Actions' reliability, and inability to run workflows locally. Preloop is a Rust reimplementation of the GitHub Actions, both the runner(tracking the latest version) and the control plane that runs in hardware-isolated microvms on MacOS/Linux/Windows(we use smolvm project that uses the libkrun vmm).The microvms starts in

Show HN: Tape Music Hub, local music library manager with a P2P phone companionhttps://tape-music-hub.gordo.design/Hi HN,This is a personal project I have been building for the last three years. I had the technical and product background, but never quite enough uninterrupted time to take it all the way. AI coding tools finally gave me enough leverage to finish the version I had been carrying around in my head.I have spent years accumulating a proper local music library. I DJ from time to time, and I always have music locally that is not distributed on any “public” platform such as Spotify or Apple Music, so I only hear that music on my computer.The core idea was to use the same archive from my phone without moving it into a cloud catalog or rebuilding it in another app, while keeping it in the same place and making it easy to connect to other DJ apps. This means you can build your playlists on the go and add many more interesting features, and, easy to use and setup.Is desktop/NAS app stays as the source of truth. You add the folders you already use for your music library, and the phone becomes a c

Show HN: Llmem – Local persistent memory for AI coding, no embeddingshttps://github.com/netrixone/llmemHi folks. This part of AI coding always felt really dumb: after working on many projects it repeats the same mistakes, uses awkward patterns or looks up stuff over and over. It just does not remember. Skills exists, but I don't like maintaining lots of markdown files. There were other solutions for this and I'm sure there are even more now, but I simply did not fancy those for one reason or another.So I wrote my own good-enough persistent memory which easily integrates with all AI coding tools I use. Lightweight, local, 1 Go binary + 1 SQLite file. Speaks MCP + good old REST API I can curl.After some testing I settled on BM25 lexical search with optional WordNet synonym expansions - no embeddings, no vector DB, no external API calls. A downside is English memories only, but that's OK for me.Memory_context pulls priority-tagged memories at session start, auto-consolidation merges near-duplicates to prevent bloat. Later I added optional memory types, project scopes and hashtags.I've been

Launch HN: ProvenMetal (YC S26) delivers circuit boards in days instead of weekshttps://provenmetal.comHey HN, we’re Will & Johnny from ProvenMetal (https://provenmetal.com). You send us design files or specs and we give you assembled boards domestically in days.The US produced 30% of PCBs globally in 2000, now they produce 4%. Chinese manufacturers have completely dominated this space at 55% of global production.Now, the need for a domestic PCB supply chain is higher than ever before, yet the infrastructure has been dissolving over the last 2 decades. What is left is mostly small family run manufacturers (CMs) that have been operating in largely the same, labor intensive way since the early 2000’s.When you place an order through a CM it typically takes several days to receive a quote and complete design for manufacture review, and then you have to source all of the components (the hardest part) and bare boards yourself, then wait anywhere from a few days to several weeks for the assembly and testing of those boards.We started off assembling circuit boards out of a garage with prosumer

Show HN: Skyline Co-op is like SimTower, but built around democratic socialismhttps://intergalacticrobots.app/skyline-coop/I've been rebuilding old games with Claude. While creating a modern take on SimTower and having election news on TV in the background, I had the idea to build the economy of the game around democratic socialism instead of capitalism.Instead of a real estate tycoon, you are an elected steward of the building, held responsible by the Assembly. Homes are allocated off a waitlist, dues are set on a sliding scale, and you face outside pressures from neighboring capitalist landlords.The crown jewel is attracting a large grant to establish an observatory at the top of your tower, attracting scientists. To get there, you must make sure the people are fed, housed, healthy, and entertained. If the Assembly doesn't have confidence in your abilities, you get voted out.It kinda works, and the potential failures in the game are pretty unique. I'd be interested to hear HN's take. An entire SimCity clone based on a different economy like this could be fun.

Ask HN: How do you correct spatial reasoning of LLMs?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49181570I'm working on a complex multi-part 3D-printed product, and I needed some engineering input from LLMs. I use highest Gemini Pro reasoning levels, Fable, and K3 Max with everything tuned to highest.The problem I'm facing is mounting a sensor on a barbell sleeve. The sensor is a semi-hollow 100mm cylinder, 60mm diameter, with a 50mm diameter 50mm deep tube cutout for the sleeve. (It's a bit more complex than that.)I'm trying to brainstorm different clamping mechanisms, and evaluate durability and manufacturability of several designs.No matter what I try, the output of all LLMs is absolutely wild, especially if you ask to make a technical drawing. Anthropic reliably been the worst, and Gemini, surprisingly, the best.But none understand what goes where in any detail, besides spewing paragraph and paragraph of wild ideas including rotational cam clamps over a recessed ring TPU collet (apparently, a "brilliant pivot") and stuff like this.Is this the "unconquered frontier"? Do I need to blow

Show HN: An open-weight background removal model for difficult imageshttps://withoutbg.com/open-modelFor many everyday images, background removal works well. The remaining challenge is images with fine hair, fur, glass, transparent objects, motion blur, low-contrast subjects, or cluttered backgrounds. Improving results on those difficult cases has been the focus of this project.This is the third iteration of the model, built through many rounds of training and evaluation. I've focused on improving performance on the kinds of images that are still difficult for many background removal tools.I recently released the third iteration of my open-weight background removal model (Apache-2.0 for my contributions; see repository for third-party licensing). My goal is to make high-quality background removal easy to run locally or on your own infrastructure.Example resultsOpen model: https://withoutbg.com/open-model/resultsComparison with remove.bg: https://withoutbg.com/compare/withoutbg-open-model-vs-remove...The comparison intentionally focuses on challenging images, since many tools produce s
