Deveggs – a self evolving developer eggsperience
i've tried many agent stacks like garry's gstack, poteto's pstack, claude superpowers, etc. while i generally love the experience, i know that i'm not using the majority of their capabilities.these stacks are fundamentally distilled from their parents daily habits, but that means it isn't personalized to me. plus, part of what makes the developer's experience so fun is the unique lessons hard earned through trial and error - tailored to the way i think and work. i
Show HN: Railcode – Secure cloud for internal software
Hey HN, Yakko here from Railcode.Railcode is like an internal Vercel for your company.We built it after speaking to dozens of engineering leaders at various companies where employees were given access to Claude Code or Codex and started to build little tools (apps, agents) locally, but then struggled to share it with coworkers securely.Typical scenarios are:1. Employees can't share what they've built because of internal policies2. Agents find the path of least resistance and deploy thi
Show HN: Rhyven – A marketplace for agents
My name is Caleb and I am the creator of rhyven marketplace.Why did I make it:I create and use a lot of mcps for my daily job. I noticed that most mcps did not have much uniformity and a lot of them were to connect to platforms with large UIs for humans even though agents are the only one using them now.So I thought why not make apps for agents to improve the end human user's experience, in both using and trying new apps.From this rhyven became two things.1. A marketplace for primarily head

Show HN: I visualized 35 years of Linux history with code [video]
35 years ago (Oct 5, 1991), Linux 0.02 was released.I made an animated history of Linux using Claude Code + opus 5.5.I've been experimenting with a “video as code” workflow - source, prompts, assets, and rendering scripts live in Git, and the final video is a generated artifact.you can try it out here:Repo: https://github.com/sujee/visual-stories/tree/main/projects/l... | https://github.com/sujee/visual-storiesVideo: https:
Show HN: Bees – Run agentic teams on your own computer (open source)
Author here. Bees is an agentic harness that runs on your own machine — macOS, Windows and Linux, MIT/Apache 2.0.The problem we kept hitting in client work: every agent platform wanted to be the place your documents live. We wanted the opposite — the orchestrator reads your files in place, on your disk, and we never see them.How it works: you describe work in plain English, Bees proposes the agents, stages, tools and schedule, and nothing runs until you apply it. Agents execute locally in t
Ask HN: What do you run on a $5 VPS that's worth keeping online 24/7?
DHH's "AI shed" idea got me thinking about getting a small $5–10/month VPS.I'm a Linux guy and have on many points of my life have a personal server. So I like the idea of having something always on, but I’m not sure the maintenance is worth it when most things can just run on my laptop.That said, I tend to do things myself and only later realize I could have automated or delegated them, so I may have a blind spot here.If you have a cheap VPS or mini PC, what actually en

onesie is a Unix-style CLI for using System One models in shell pipelines, scripts, and agentic workflows: https://github.com/frodi-karlsson/onesie echo 'EVERYTHING IS DOWN, CALL ME NOW' | onesie 'does this convey urgency' -r # 0.99 It provides caching, batching, deduplication, unix composability, streaming, and even a way to calibrate thresholds and questions against labelled data: onesie calibrate -f shell-safety -i jsonl --map .command --id .id \
Show HN: SFML – A markup language for software factories, Terraform for agents
SFML is a language specification for defining software factories. You can think of it as Terraform for your software development lifecycle. I started from a language spec to help think through both how a factory is defined and how a conforming runner processes it.The push to do this comes from leading teams where everyone has a unique coding setup, which results in different agentic coding processes. People also want to work together on improving that process. Right now they do it through shared
