Looking for people to follow designing systems to ship code with AI agentshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49444955Today I watched a workshop, probably recorded by one of the people attended the Zoom call and shared over X, and I loved it. The speaker was from Cursor and talked about her own genuine experience in developing the the systems at work that ship hundred of PRs every month w/o her touching the code at all -- aside from her working on the environment, harness, constraints, rules where these agents operate. What I liked also how she actually showed it, explained it, and her communication sounded pure hands-on experience.And more importantly, throughout the video she looked really tired and but energetic at the same time if you know what I mean. Tired because of solving real problems, and energetic because of solving real problems unlike those YouTubers or many X folks with overly energetic acts coming from speaking about AI rather than what they really do with AI at work.So for people like me who are away from the source of all this, which is Silicon Valley, I am really trying to access thAug 26, 2026 6:50 AM

Show HN: Launched free browser agent (the catch: ads)https://rtrvr.aiNo one’s got money for another AI subscription. So we made our browser agent totally FREE.What's the catch? Just ads while Retriever AI fetches you leads, does your exams, applied to jobs, and sends connection requests.Think like a Claude Code or Clay level tool in your browser, but free for everyone!After 35K+ users and 7M+ workflows, we spent the last few months attacking the cost of every agent step: - switching to DeepSeek Flash - Code Mode to one shot complex workflows - optimizing for 80%+ token cache hitsSo that now just an ad impression covers the entire cost of the agent (LLM inference included), so we can now offer the entire agent for free!More important than an agent that can scale with users, is an agent that gets better with every workflow. Retriever now continuously: → learns global skills for every website, so no mistake repeats twice → writes learnings from user tasks as personalized skillsCurious to hear how others are tackling consumer agents and excited for the new Aug 26, 2026 6:02 AM

Show HN: LLM-powered webapp to build LLM-powered webappshttps://codeplusequalsai.com/dashboardHey all,The goal is to earn on token margins for LLM calls when you build an AI-powered webapp. I proxy OpenAI and Anthropic calls so that when you deploy a site to a subdomain, your users token usage will be tracked. I charge 2x the token cost to the end user, where the webapp creator gets 80% of the profit and I get 20%. The idea is to ramp your revenue from simple AI apps directly with your popularity and real usageI've built this over the last 3 years. The system behind it is kind of crazy: I use Abstract Syntax Trees and have the LLM write AST transformation code to implement code changes to files. I haven't benchmarked it in a while, but last time I did, it cost more in tokens but produced more targeted code changes (as compared to other agent harnesses). I wrote a blog post about this idea when I first built it: https://codeplusequalsai.com/static/blog/prompting_llms_to_m...Your development project is run inside a docker container, and you can publish it to make it public and geAug 26, 2026 5:09 AM

Show HN: HandWrought – an AI editor inside your document, not a tab awayhttps://handwrought.online/I write a lot, and I got tired of the ChatGPT-in-a-second-tab shuffle: paste a paragraph in, describe the change, copy the answer back, lose track of what actually changed. So I built an editor where the AI suggestions show up in place — you review and accept/reject them like a diff, instead of reconciling a wall of chat text by hand.It's a chat panel next to a real editor. Ask for a rewrite, a tighter opening, a different tone — the suggestion lands as an inline, reversible edit, not a new chat bubble to copy out.Guest mode gets you 5 generations with no signup, so you can try it cold. Built solo in 5 weeks, deployed, and never shown to anyone outside me until right now — so it's rough in a few honest ways: credits (one-time purchase, no subscription) are built but still waitlist-only until launch day.Would love feedback, especially on where the "review before it's yours" flow feels slow or gets in the way rather than helping.Aug 26, 2026 3:58 AM

Show HN: CaptureAgent – find, price, draft, grade, run and fund federal workhttps://captureagent.us/I’m a 2x defense founder and aerospace engineer.I initially built CaptureAgent for my own company, but now I want to share it with other founders. While running my defense startup, I lost days deciding which federal opportunities to pursue and weeks assembling teams, researching competitors, pricing work, checking compliance, negotiating with subcontractors, and writing proposals. I see startups and the small-business industrial base as one of America’s secret weapons, but small business win rate for federal funding is between 17-22% annually and competing for funding can push founders away from the companies they set out to build. To keep my company afloat, I sometimes pursued tangential tech areas instead of staying focused on our original vision. Pursuing poor-fit opportunities, or being disqualified over technicalities, consumed runway and pulled me away from engineering.The software, consultants, and proposal shops I engaged or worked with were expensive and still left much of theAug 25, 2026 11:50 PM
