Re:Show HN: Use your OpenAI subscription to create audiobooks

It was always harder to get it to sound right, I had built Lissin around this thesis itself. You can throw in a PDF or a link and can get a podcast, deepdive or just narration with different voices in Lissin.
For those interested in better voices, you can try and let me know.

I remember seeing a similar edit a few years back talking about GPT-4, model sizes, MoE etc and laughed quite a bit. Had to make my own version after reading through the Dream RSI, Jev announcements this week
Show HN: Bookshelf – book quotes that appear between Claude Code and Codex turns
https://github.com/Amal-David/bookshelf
This is a small quality of life project i built for myself and using it for 3+ months now, decided to fork it out and publish as a skill separately.Instead of seeing terminals filled with code and tool calls, seeing a book quote felt like a breath of fresh air considering all of us are glued to it day and night.Hope the random quotes that pop up in your terminals lets you have a moment of pause...

This is quite interesting, let me ponder over this a bit. I think I can expose an MCP and also make the admin to be hosted directly in cloudflare workers/pages and make it a remote MCP.
Will need to handle auth though since the dashboard will be public.

Thanks for the unfiltered feedback!
Yes, the readme and no screenshot was something that I meant to cleanup and add and are already live now.
Agent reports vs small static sites -> It was supposed to mean markdown files as plans gets shared between teams which is what CC mentioned as agent reports.
Yes, code is definitely cheap. Built it as an utility for myself and dogfooding it with my team. Had put it out with the thought that others might find it useful.
Point in time, a lot of it is available vanilla with cloudflare cli but natively enabling passwords, private team dashboard are something that am considering. Passwords are already live as we speak.
Will improve this as i get more feedback and time to spend on this.

publishing workflow yes, i wanted to have a way to manage published urls and update existing urls with a small dashboard as well since we end up doing it repeatedly.

Show HN: Pagecast – Publish Markdown/HTML Reports to Cloudflare Pages
https://github.com/Amal-David/pagecast
I built this because I kept generating HTML/Markdown reports from Claude Code/Codex and needed a permanent share link instead of a localhost tunnel. Pagecast is a local CLI that publishes those files to your own Cloudflare Pages account.It supports Markdown and HTML, stable URLs, renaming, republishing to the same URL, and watch mode for continuous updates to same file. It is MIT licensed.The...

Show HN: Terminal Arcade – Side quests when agents are cooking
https://twitter.com/DavidAmal/status/2052819451259834376
I was having way too much free time even when i was working on 6-7 different projects at the same time with claude code and codex. Staring at the terminal when agents are cooking code for you was just too boring in the last 6-7 months so had to look for fun little side quests and ended up building a terminal arcade, it is still in its infancy and more of a personal hobby project. Out of all...

I saw The Mahjong Guide (https://themahjong.guide/) today and loved how much a good visual explanation can do for an old game.Around the same time, this HN thread about using coding assistants to revive projects you never were going to finish (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47902525) pushed me to actually do something with the idea.That combination sent me down a nostalgia rabbit hole....

Gitleaks is too good to be compared to this, the only areas where keyleak is comparable is it does runtime detection where sometimes your build process injects secrets via env vars into the bundle or any of your responses expose a config file or secrets.

on Sunday November 02, 2025 @12:02AM (#45787771)
Yep, Github does a wonderful job flagging secrets most times but irrespective of that this is happening in some sites. This was built out of personal curiosity and I had put it out for public because I myself was not aware if this will be actually useful and if so in what form. People do YOLO to prod, we have more kids building AI wrappers than I can count, and somewhere in that chaos secrets slip through the cracks.
Ideally I would have loved this to be a chrome plugin or part of the CI/CD pipeline or put it out as an adversary agent for all of these new vibe coded apps but don't think I'm that vested into the idea yet. Thanks for being gentle :)

Well, when i meant "personally" not in the app I manage. I have a quirk of checking sites to understand what they are using and how they are using and have stumbled upon sites with exposed Gemini, Google Maps, OpenAI keys etc.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45741569 - It was also partly inspired by this as I have seen legacy sites making these mistakes quite often.
With all the vibe coded apps that are getting launched or were launched early, there are enough holes to plug. This is just an attempt to help individuals or orgs to ensure they are not exposed. Just pushed it out what I had in mind based on my experience.
And I agree with you that an adversary approach won't work if we can't fix the underlying problem but the world has changed with enough vibe coded apps that are getting shipped everyday and very little of them care or know about security.
Show HN: KeyLeak Detector – Scan websites for exposed API keys and secrets
https://github.com/Amal-David/keyleak-detector
I built this after seeing multiple teams accidentally ship API keys in their frontend code.The problem: Modern web development moves fast. You're vibe-coding, shipping features, and suddenly your AWS keys are sitting in a <script> tag visible to anyone who opens DevTools. I've personally witnessed this happen to at least 3-4 production apps in the past year alone.KeyLeak Detector runs...
