Show HN: CookWing, an AI chef that doesn't hallucinate quantities

Hey HN! I just released Cookwing. This is an AI app that solves the biggest problem I had when I was cooking with ChatGPT : The quantities are often hallucinated. I was curious, so I even built my own cooking quantity benchmark while development, and here are the results. We're using my system, which is anchoring tables that are searched in the original country of the recipe. For example, when cooking carbonara, it's going to check for the Italian web for the anchoring table, not the English web...

I found an SSRF in Google's official AI tooling, and how Google reacted

Earlier this year I found a server-side request forgery bug in Google's MCP Toolbox, the official server Google publishes for connecting language-model agents to databases and HTTP APIs. I reported it. Google fixed it in eight days, credited me by name, and the fix later became CVE-2026-14540 (CVSS 8.0, high). What I found: the MCP Toolbox's HTTP source makes outbound requests to a URL a caller can influence. It validated that first URL, but not where a redirect sent it next, and it did no filte...

Show HN: Screen memory without screenshots, just text to Markdown

It's a macOS menu bar app that reads the text of your focused window every few seconds through the Accessibility API. No screenshots, no video, or OCR. It writes plain markdown, one file per day, into a folder you choose. Point Claude Code (or anything with file access) at the folder and ask "what did I work on Tuesday?" or have it build memory about your projects. The folder contains an AGENTS.md explaining the format to the model. Thought it might be useful for someone so chucked it up on GitH...

Why Corrupted Training Data Doesn't Show Up as High Loss

Originally published at ai.bedvibe.studio . There is an assumption almost every practitioner carries without examining it: if your dataset has bad samples in it, the loss will tell you. Corrupted rows spike. Broken files stick out. Sort by per-sample loss, look at the top of the list, and there is your garbage. I believed it too. Two separate failures in my own work say it is wrong, and they fail in the same direction — quietly. The reproducible one: a dataset that cannot b...

Key integration points for A‑share real‑time Level‑2 API feeds

Intro While building a simple A‑share market monitor for my quant lab work, I initially only cared about extracting obvious metrics: last price, total trading volume, and so on. My naive assumption was that pulling raw JSON from an A‑share real‑time market API and rendering it would finish the job. Once I started running short‑term trading simulation workflows, I realized most actionable insight lives inside structured order‑book data. Level‑2 data is far more than a basic price snapshot....

Your TTS Model Sounds Great — Until It Says "GPUB"

Originally published at ai.bedvibe.studio . I built a text-to-speech product and kept getting burned by the same thing. On normal sentences the model sounded great. Then it would hit a number, a date, an acronym or a name, and quietly mangle it. Worse, the metric everyone reaches for — Word Error Rate — was lying to me in both directions. It flagged perfectly good audio as broken because the script said 3:30 PM and the transcript said "three thirty pee em." And it missed real failu...

Your AI Agent Doesn’t Need More Prompts. It Needs Skills!

Tired of explaining the same things again and again to your AI Agent? Frustrated because the AI keeps forgetting minute things custom to your codebase which needs to be kept in mind in each change? This is the current scenario for most people using AI agents to build their software. You handoff a task to it, it gives back the solution but misses something. You explain that to it, it nods back and then does it again. I myself did it until i came to know about Skills. What ...

The Power of Asking the Right Questions

In the professional world—especially in high-stakes tech environments—we are conditioned to believe that career advancement is a direct result of having the right answers. From the moment we step into our first junior role, we feel the pressure to be the "smartest person in the room." We equate confidence with certainty and value with the ability to provide instant solutions. But after years of working with founders, engineering leaders, and product builders, I have discovered a fundamental t...

My Validation Layer Was Correctly Deleting 16% of My Good Data

Originally published at ai.bedvibe.studio . I built a real-time tracker in Rust — about two thousand lines — that reads a live ADS-B feed, keeps a Kalman-filtered track per aircraft, and screens every pair for closest approach against separation minima. Roughly 150 aircraft, a full cycle in under a millisecond. It ran clean. Tests passed, the picture looked right, the numbers were plausible. It was refusing about one measurement in nine , and the only reason I ever found out is that ...

Your coding agent shouldn't run pytest

First post in a build-in-public series about verdict , an MCP server that gives coding agents structured, sandboxed test feedback. The problem Watch a coding agent work and you'll see it run pytest in your shell, unsandboxed, and then push 40,000 tokens of raw output through its context window to answer one question: did my change break anything? That's three problems in one command: Token waste. The agent needs ~10 lines of signal and pays for a wall of dots, wa...
