Yeah exactly, I wanted something that I could see what the agent was doing. Open Claw was cool but I wanted the controllability and context management that Claude code affords.

I’m making https://yapi.run which is a PostMan alternative for the CLI / VSCode / Cursor that uses declarative YAML to define requests.

Thank you for commenting about the 404. I'm serving the blog using a [custom package that serves your blog from GitHub hosted mark down](https://github.com/jamierpond/madea-blog-core) which was getting it's debut. There was a bug in caching requests to GitHub.

This is a really interesting approach! How did you end up deciding on executable markdown as opposed to other approaches?

Show HN: Yapi – FOSS Terminal API Client for Power Users

from the show-hn dept.

https://yapi.run/blog/what-is-yapi

I shared a previous version of yapi a few months ago in the comments section of a post talking about the insanity of Postman being 'down'. yapi has developed into a more mature project since then!https://github.com/jamierpond/yapiStill very early, but it makes me much more productive vs Postman, Bruno, Insomnia, etc.If youre a nvim/tmux culture human, you might like this!

Re:Postman which I thought worked locally on my computer, is down on Monday October 20, 2025 @07:12PM (#45650598)
I made a very simple lightweight yaml based Postman alternative called `yapi`.

https://github.com/jamierpond/yapi

Run this:

  yapi -c ./users.yapi.yaml
With this file:

  # users.yapi.yaml
  # yaml-language-server: $schema=https://pond.audio/yapi/schema
  url: http://localhost:3000
  method: GET
  path: /api/users
  query:
    select[name]: true
    select[tag]: true
    limit: 10
Or just `yapi` to use fzf to find configs.
