Show HN: LLM driven OS to execute network security exploration agents https://bit.ly/3O1S9jV

Show HN: LLM driven OS to execute network security exploration agents I made this thing where LLM works like a tiny OS kernel - it plans tasks and runs different agents. Right now it's doing security stuff (poking at networks, checking SSL, testing APIs) with WebGoat as a playground. The ultimate goal is to ask it "find vulnerabilities in XYZ" and see it orchestrate its own tools, backtrack, try different approaches, etc. The cool part is the LLM doesn't just blast out a bunch of tokens - it plans, reasons and executes tasks step by step during inference. Currently playing with security agents but you could plug in anything really. Would love getting you to play with it and maybe add an agent or two. https://bit.ly/3NZXkAK November 10, 2024 at 03:02AM

Show HN: SICP-VSCode https://bit.ly/4fIfTWd

Show HN: SICP-VSCode I am sharing an opinionated configuration for VS Code that should suffice to work through Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (SICP). I have owned SICP for a decade or more and am giving it another go. I (re)started it last weekend using the DrRacket editor, which is fine, but I spend most of my time in vs code. It was a jarring to use another editor. So, in an evening of delightful bikeshedding, I now have a setup that should let me work through SICP in vs code. I thought I'd share this in case someone else is interested or has any feedback. This is a barebones configuration with a lightly tested installation script that works on my machine! I wanted to avoid installing a bunch of vs code extensions and was able to get this working with only a single extension to add scheme support to vs code. Any feedback is welcome and I hope someone gets some use out of this! https://bit.ly/4fGtT2u November 9, 2024 at 05:27AM

Show HN: I build a FullStack boilerplate to ship my projects faster https://bit.ly/48GA8Bk

Show HN: I build a FullStack boilerplate to ship my projects faster Every time I start a new project, it’s the same drill: setting up authentication, routing, databases, UI, etc. Sound familiar? I wasted 10+ hours on the same repetative setup. So I built Getstart, a SaaS-ready framework with everything you need to go from zero to launch—fast. It’s all here: NextAuth for easy auth Prisma + MongoDB for scalable databases Next.js API routes pre-built Nodemailer for emails Razorpay for both domestic and international payments Tailwind and Shadcn for sleek and customizable UI Let me know what you guys think and what can be improved https://bit.ly/48JZNsJ November 9, 2024 at 12:10AM

Show HN: RL Agent that can auto-optimize your LLM prompts https://bit.ly/3UFLWOr

Show HN: RL Agent that can auto-optimize your LLM prompts Hey everyone! Along with my team, I've developed a reinforcement learning system that automatically optimizes LLM prompts, complete with a visualization feature to track both prompt structure and learning progress over time. Take a look here: https://bit.ly/3YX9Ozo... Check out our website too: https://bit.ly/48Mo9lB In terms of how this visualization works: The RL Prompt Optimizer employs a reinforcement learning framework to iteratively improve prompts used for language model evaluations. At each episode, the agent selects an action to modify the current prompt based on the state representation, which encodes features of the prompt. The agent receives rewards based on a multi-metric evaluation of the model's responses, encouraging the development of prompts that elicit high-quality answers. And see our github repo! https://bit.ly/3XhrP9O https://bit.ly/3V7IeNV November 8, 2024 at 09:17PM

Show HN: ZetaJS – client-side LibreOffice widget and automation in the browser https://bit.ly/4fGcPKi

Show HN: ZetaJS – client-side LibreOffice widget and automation in the browser ZetaJS wraps ZetaOffice, a WASM version of LibreOffice - and makes accessing the entire gamut of the LibreOffice programmability interfaces from JavaScript convenient, idiomatic & extremely fast. If you always wanted an entire client-side office suite in the browser, that you could fully automate with JS & seamlessly embed in your web apps - and on top of that, be able to self-host it & keep all data on the client, since there's literally no server involved (except for some static wasm & JS blobs) - then this might be for you. https://bit.ly/4fGskBV November 8, 2024 at 03:43PM

Show HN: Firecrawl-Simple – Stable fork of Firecrawl optimized for self-hosting https://bit.ly/40z3lfu

Show HN: Firecrawl-Simple – Stable fork of Firecrawl optimized for self-hosting Firecrawl Simple is a stripped down and stable version of firecrawl optimized for self-hosting and ease of contribution. The upstream firecrawl repo contains the following blurb: >This repository is in development, and we're still integrating custom modules into the mono repo. It's not fully ready for self-hosted deployment yet, but you can run it locally. Firecrawl's API surface and general functionality were ideal for our Trieve sitesearch product, but we needed a version ready for self-hosting that was easy to contribute to and scale on Kubernetes. Therefore, we decided to fork and begin maintaining a stripped down, stable version. Fire-engine, Firecrawl's solution for anti-bot pages, being closed source is the biggest deal breaker requiring us to maintain this fork. Further, our purposes not requiring the SaaS and AI dependencies also pushes our use-case far enough away from Firecrawl's current mission that it doesn't seem like merging into the upstream is viable at this time. https://bit.ly/3NVAdr9 November 6, 2024 at 12:18AM

Show HN: Open-Source HTTP Interceptor – Capture, Modify, Run Requests in Browser https://bit.ly/3O16XPD

Show HN: Open-Source HTTP Interceptor – Capture, Modify, Run Requests in Browser Hey HN, I recently built an open-source HTTP interceptor called Relay, which works as a Chrome extension for capturing, modifying, and replaying HTTP requests directly in your browser — no account needed. How it works: Relay lets you capture requests as they happen, modify parameters, headers, or body content, and replay them on the fly. You can customize or debug network requests quickly without needing an external tool or complex setup. Key features: - Simple setup: Install the extension and start a session to capture requests. You can filter by URLs and methods. -Request modification: Make quick edits to any part of the requests for debugging or testing. - Copy as cURL: Easily copy requests as cURL commands to use elsewhere if needed. - Replay functionality: Re-run requests with modified data or headers and see the results in your browser. - Local, no account needed: All interactions are handled locally in your browser, so you maintain privacy and control over your data. I built Relay to make tasks like testing API integrations, troubleshooting network calls, and experimenting with client-side requests easier. Originally, I made it for myself because I wanted a faster way to look at and edit network requests without constantly switching between my browser and other tools. After seeing how useful it was, I decided to make it open-source for anyone who would find it useful. Here's the GitHub repo: https://bit.ly/3NW7PFw Would love to hear your feedback and suggestions! https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/relay-–-intercept-modify/kilmhgoembjiamcmcbecekdonljjiolg November 5, 2024 at 11:48AM

Show HN: CMD+C – Instant Grammar Correction Across All Apps for macOS https://bit.ly/3Cava3H

Show HN: CMD+C – Instant Grammar Correction Across All Apps for macOS Hey HN! Here is my simple native macOS app for correcting grammar — CMD+C. I'm a non-native English speaker working in English-speaking teams, and I care about how my Slack messages and other communications come across. Frustrated with switching between grammar tools, apps that don't support some input boxes, and endless copy-pasting, I built CMD+C — a simple macOS app that corrects grammar on the fly in any app, with just a triple-click. Features: 1) Triple-click "⌘+C" to correct any selected text instantly, no matter where you're typing. 2) Use your own API key (OpenAI, Anthropic) or access premium corrections with our plan. 3) View correction history with explanations from GPT why it was corrected and export JSON/CSV if needed. How it works: 1) Intercept triple "⌘+C" shortcut in macOS 2) Process text with LLM (OpenAI, Anthropic) with custom prompt 3) Replace selected text with the corrected version and save it to better understand why and how it was corrected CMD+C was built in 7 days, is free to use, and I plan to share the source code later this month. I've never built anything before, so I'd love your feedback - let me know what you think! Hope someone finds it useful! https://bit.ly/3YBykF5 November 4, 2024 at 12:03AM

Show HN: I launched a super cheap and simple to use OCR tool for macOS 1. Click capture text 2. Select an area on screen with text 3. Paste the text anywhere Are there other solutions out there? Yes, the best one that I've found is Text Sniper, it $8 so I decided to learn SwiftUI and release Text Capture for $0.99. This one uses MacOS builtin Vision API under the hood so it should also improve with new macOS releases. Would love to hear your feedback! https://bit.ly/3Cb53cF November 3, 2024 at 11:40PM
