Show HN: Junior – an open-source AI junior engineer that runs on your Mac

Hi HN, I'm Samar, a software engineer. I built Junior because I was spending more time fixing CI issues, babysitting PRs and resolving merge conflicts. I thought maybe i should automate all of it, and that's why I started building Junior. Junior is an agent that runs locally on macOS and picks up that kind of work. It connects with my Linear, Slack, Github etc and autopicks work for himself. It works on it and shares a report for me to review. It's open source under. I'd love feedback, especiall...

Ask HN: What is the main bottleneck facing Agentic AI today?

Hey guys, today I read a statistic that showed that Agentic traffic surpassed human traffic on the internet and that statistic was very shocking to me. At the same time I saw another statistic that showed only 10% of agents built, actually get into production. These two statistics seemed ironic to me. So I wondered to myself what is the major bottleneck that is causing a lot of the agents that are being built not get into production and what is the infrastructure missing to make Agentic traffic...

Show HN: Open Accountant – AI-customizable budgeting app for freelancers

This is my own very opinionated take on personal accounting / budgeting for freelancers and small business owners operating in multiple currencies. A lot of this is influenced by my circumstances: - consultant / freelancer / business owner with multiple revenue streams - revenue fluctuates a lot and changes month to month - we're nomad, so currencies and shops change a lot, but categories stay stable - mobile and agentic first (PWA and MCP) with good desktop support on top - import from Wise, Pl...

Show HN: Optio – A self-hosted orchestration platform for AI agents

Hey HN! I shared Optio here back in March. Originally it was focused on getting swarms of coding agents (claude code/codex) to drive PRs towards a merge by automatically resuming them on CI failures or PR comments. Since then, I've reworked the project to be a general platform for running any kind of AI workflow on your infra by allowing users to configure each component of a possible workflow: When: On demand, a cron schedule, or triggered by external events such as a webhook, slack message, ti...

The post made Saturday evening opens by saying, "If your project uses AI, is made by AI, or is intended for AI, it's not welcome on r/opensource.

Microsoft's Agensh runs 1,024 coding agents with no manager: one agent on the newer model beat the whole fleet

Microsoft Research open-sourced Agensh on October 24, MIT-licensed, with the harness, the experiment launch scripts, and a reproduction guide. The paper behind it, Agensh: Scaling Organizational Intelligence to 1,024 Agents , has been on arXiv since September 22. The headline claim: 1,024 coding agents working in one shared repository, with no lead agent and no central scheduler assigning tasks. I read the paper, the README, and the reproduction guide before writing this, because the most ...

Segno Player: a sheet music player that keeps the engraver's layout

Segno Player ( https://github.com/segnomusic/segno-player ) is an open source web component that plays a MuseScore score's audio on its original engraved pages, with a marker on the bar being played and a cursor that follows the notes. This post covers why I built it, how it works and where it's heading. Background I have a hobby, or possibly a problem, of collecting sheet music for old public domain songs, mostly Swedish folk music and choral music. Some of it does get sung or ...

Park Graph MCP: let Claude and ChatGPT find, price and book parking

Most parking lots are invisible to AI assistants. Ask Claude or ChatGPT to "find me parking near Coors Field tonight" and it can only guess from web pages. We built Park Graph to fix that. Lot owners print one QR sign. Drivers scan and pay in 30 seconds. And every lot on Park Graph is exposed to AI agents through a hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. The endpoint https://parkgraph.com/api/mcp Remote, streamable HTTP. The driver flow needs no API key. I...

A free MCP server and API for 95,000+ US EV charging stations

68% of EV drivers hit a broken charger in a single year (Plug In America survey). Most charger data an AI assistant can reach is stale, scraped or undated. ChargingNear.me covers 95,724 US charging stations in all 50 states and DC, including 17,028 DC fast chargers from 98 networks. It syncs daily from the U.S. Department of Energy NREL database and cross-checks Open Charge Map, Google Places and TomTom. Every station page carries the date it was last verified. We opened that data to age...

Basic syntax const [ value , setValue ] = useState ( initialValue ); value — current state value. setValue — function to update the state. useState(initialValue) — sets the initial value. 2. Example: Counter import { useState } from " react " ; export default function App () { const [ count ...
