Show HN: Readhn – AI-Native Hacker News MCP Server (Discover, Trust, Understand) I felt frustrated finding high-signal discussions on HN, and I started this project to better understand how this community actually works. That led me to build readhn, an MCP server that helps with three things: - Discover: find relevant stories/comments by keyword, score, and time window - Trust: identify credible voices using EigenTrust-style propagation from seed experts - Understand: show why each result is ranked, with explicit signals instead of a black-box score It includes 6 tools: discover_stories, search, find_experts, expert_brief, story_brief, and thread_analysis. I also added readhn setup so AI agents can auto-configure it (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and others) after pip install. I’d love feedback on: 1) whether these ranking signals match how you evaluate HN quality, 2) trust-model tradeoffs, 3) what would make this useful in your daily workflow. If this is useful to you, starring the repo helps others discover it: https://bit.ly/40pmNKh https://bit.ly/40pmNKh March 11, 2026 at 01:49AM
