Claude Code is an agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal, understands your codebase, and helps you code faster by executing routine tasks, explaining complex code, and handling git workflows - all through natural language commands.
The most powerful and modular diffusion model GUI, api and backend with a graph/nodes interface. The fastest local inference engine in the world.
Orca is the place for working with a fleet of agents (e.g. Grok Bot, Claude Code). Run any coding agent with your own subscription. Available on desktop, mobile and remote runtime.
🌊 The original agent harness. Deploy intelligent multi-player swarms, coordinate autonomous workflows, and build conversational AI systems. Features adaptive memory, self-learning intelligence, federation, vector RAG integration, and native Claude Code / Codex / Hermes and many more Integrated
Compress tool outputs, logs, files, and RAG chunks before they reach the LLM. 20% fewer tokens for coding agents, 60-95% fewer tokens for JSON, same answers. Library, proxy, MCP server.

Inbox Zero Mail is an open-source email client for Gmail and Outlook. Fast, keyboard-first, and free to use, on web, Mac, Windows and iPhone, with all your accounts in one inbox. Add AI for $20/mo: every email is sorted, and replies are drafted in your voice before you open them. Comment privately with your team, get Slack alerts, and give the AI context from your tools.
MyLens is AI for live 1-1 presentations at scale. You add your raw sources, say what matters, and invite your audience. MyLens AI gives every person a live, private presentation, answers their questions using your sources, and create new slides and layers in real time during the presentation. Then the AI tells you how each session went, so you can see who’s doing well, who’s stuck, and what to do next.
An open-source hook and local proxy for Claude Code, Codex, Copilot CLI and VS Code. In Claude Code it masks secrets and personal data in tool results before the model reads them, and shim watch shows what a session sent and cost. No account, no telemetry.
Tower 18 for Mac is here! This update is all about improving the Tower experience in the terminal: the Tower Command Line Tool can now take you straight to any view in Tower (History, Blame, the Working Copy, Branches Review, and more) with a single command.
MeetPaw is a lightweight macOS menu-bar app that puts your meetings one click away. Spin up an instant Google Meet, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams link the moment you need it. The link is created, copied to your clipboard, and ready to share before you've switched windows. No tabs, no digging, no friction.
Take play to more places with the XBOX Nano Controller. Fit more play in your everyday in a smaller form factor. Connect via Bluetooth & play across devices.

I wanted my humble Claude on mobile to access my WhatsApp messages but the only options I could find either required WhatsApp Business or an actual server to run Baileys on. I wanted to run it for free on ClaudeFlare and with my personal WhatsApp account, so I built this. Important feature - it connects to your Google account as well as WhatsApp to grab the names of all your WhatsApp contacts, otherwise you get only phone numbers for many of them and search doesn't work properly. This is a singl... (144 points, 76 comments).
Hello everyone, I wanted to share this small project that I have. It's born out of a necessity that I had, because Proton doesn't ship a Linux version of the drive yet (it's apparently coming out later this year but who knows?) and all the current solutions are hacky and wonky at best. But for the time being I really needed to mount my Proton drive on my Linux machine the way I mounted it on my Mac, so I (and my faithful AI slave) did this small utility that allows you to mount your Proton Drive...

Hello HN! Wonderhop is a small browser game with no account needed to play, everyday there are 4 rounds of 7 quesitons like "Name a food that a lot of people hate" The goal depends on the mode: Either gives the answer most people would give, the one no one would give, the oldest answer or the most recent one and there's a leaderboard for the day. The most interesting part of the project was understanding answers that are typed freely and in 10 languages, there was some typos, plurals, nickname,... (122 points, 97 comments).
Back when I lived in Central Florida, it took me years to learn what native plants could benefit wildlife and the local ecosystem as I slowly replaced parts of my yard to make it more resilient to drought. After moving to Seattle a few years ago, I had to start all of that from scratch. LLMs made the process a bit easier but I still had to routinely ask the same kinds of questions over and over, despite being far more familiar with native plants these days and leaning more on native plant societ...

About 11 months ago i revived the amazing but unfortunately unmaintained spotify-tui. Since then I have been working on it almost non stop, finding a lot of problems on the way. One of the main issues I ran into were the Spotify web API rate limits. Third party clients like spotatui are dependent on a developer app made in the Spotify developer dashboard, which get rate limited a lot and Spotify has slowly been deprecating endpoints from it. The workaround for this used to be using a shared clie... (92 points, 19 comments).
My friend and I are huge Neovim nerds. We like to rice our terminals and our editors. We just wanted a harness that we can do the same with, rice it till our hearts' desire. So, we started looking out for harnesses. Pi was great, Pi was good. But in the end, it was JavaScript. I don't have anything against JavaScript, but Lua is more fitting, and I can just as easily base it in Rust to make it even faster. So, we started cooking, and we ended up with a design that's minimal at its core and is bu... (74 points, 15 comments).

6-step Qwen-Image-2.1, T2I + editing, vs-base comparison Viggle Turbo v0.3 — 6-step Qwen-Image-2.1 A distilled Qwen-Image-2.1 that generates and edits images in 6 steps with no classifier-free guidance, about 5× faster than the 40-step base model. On most prompts it is hard to tell apart from the base model; small, dense text and complicated edits (multi-reference composition, face swaps, identity-preserving edits) can still fall short of it. v0.3 (2026-09-29): at 6 steps, less grain than v0.2.1 and a little softer on fine texture. We think 6 steps is close to its capacity: every further gain we found cost something elsewhere. The new 9-step setting runs 7 turbo steps and lets the base model...
Head swap with the BFS LoRA on Qwen-Image-2.1 (+turbo) Head/face swap demo for the BFS bfsheadv1qwen2.1 LoRA on Qwen-Image-2.1, with an optional Viggle turbo 6-step mode. Example inputs are cropped from the example images in the BFS model repository (MIT license). Qwen-Image-2.1 and the Viggle turbo LoRA are under the Qwen Research License (non-commercial). Do not use or share results involving people who have not given consent. BFS Best Face Swap is a Hugging Face Space tagged with gradio, mcp-server, region:us. It has 349 likes on Hugging Face.
8-step text-to-image and editing with Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo Text-to-image generation and multi-image editing with Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo, the official 8-step distilled checkpoint of Qwen-Image-2.1, running on ZeroGPU through QwenImage21Pipeline in diffusers. Text to image: leave the input gallery empty and describe what you want. Image editing: upload up to 10 images and refer to them as … . Transparency: the model natively decodes RGBA. Ask for it in the prompt. Sampling follows the model card: the checkpoint's saved 8-step sigma schedule, CFG 1 and prefix KV caching. The transformer blocks and VAE decoder run as ahead-of-time compiled kernels (AOTInductor) from hugging-apps/qwen-image-2-...
One photo into a frozen-instant 360° camera orbit pablodawson/MiniMax-H3-360-Orbit-LoRA is a rank-16 ai-toolkit adapter for MiniMax-H3's first–last-frame (fl2va) partition that turns one photo into a frozen-time 360° camera orbit: the camera travels all the way around the subject, nothing in the scene moves, and the clip closes on the exact frame it started from — so orbits chain or stitch into longer shots with no visible seam. Upload a photo and press Orbit 360°. The photo is fed to MiniMax-H3 as both the first and the last keyframe — the wiring the LoRA was trained with, and what pins both ends. Every knob the card recommends is preset: 768×768, 73 frames (≈ 3 s at 24 fps), 28 steps, no C...
