it's only if you want to sync your repos from github

If you google Cursor they dominate the whole first page

Surely they have a chance of doing it again with Origin

Re:Grok 4.6 on Wednesday August 12, 2026 @01:53PM (#49276224)
you're in luck, it's quite good at coding while being much faster and cheaper than sol and fable
the new models are quite good, give it a shot

Show HN: Limits, an on-device iOS app for tracking AI usage limits

https://getlimits.app

I built Limits because I wanted an easier way to keep track of when my limits would reset. Like say you're outside and just wanna know if your weekly or session limit is back.It’s a meticulously designed, free iOS app that connects to your accounts entirely on-device. No Mac companion app, no tethering, and no background server.It currently supports Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor. You can check...

Re:What xAI's Grok Build CLI Actually Sends to xAI on Saturday July 11, 2026 @11:57PM (#48878119)
To be fair, most coding agent cli's by the labs do this and are opt in by default, it's just this does too
Ahh been working on the same thing for a while now but haven't launched yet
Wow everyone on HN seems very out of touch with Cursor.

Their UX on their agents only window is quite good and on par if not better than Codex and Claude desktop apps and it still has quite a good bit of subsidization especially with Composer 2.5 being on par with Sonnet at the very least. They're also growing tremendously this year to 4B ARR recently on track to go higher before EOY.

codex generated sites are so easy to spot lmao

I thought Apple does tell you how long they'll support hardware.

For example: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102772

With the hiring 1111 interns thing, I think these companies (amazon as well) need to realize this is doing anything but inspiring confidence in those interns. Instead of being excited about going there, more of them would opt to go elsewhere instead of returning full time, or if they do return full time they'd be in fear of being let go next.
interesting, but I really wonder how big the audience is of people wanting to know their fortune while claude coding within the claude code interface
for what it's worth the creator mentioned this site was made in a couple of minutes lol
Re:TurboQuant: A First-Principles Walkthrough on Monday April 27, 2026 @05:19AM (#47919394)
Woah very cool, yeah I think the cards and heading/subheading structure is very similar to what codex outputs, but I can tell the different visualizations definitely require your own personal touch
Re:TurboQuant: A First-Principles Walkthrough on Monday April 27, 2026 @02:49AM (#47918464)
I feel like I've gotten really good at noticing which model generates what type of site and this oozes codex
this is the plot of Persona 5
Vercel very clearly highlights that you need to redeploy once you make a credential change
well yeah since they tell claude code the business decisions and it creates the comments
Yes it's the claude code CLI tool / coding agent harness, not the weights.

This code hasn't been open source until now and contains information like the system prompts, internal feature flags, etc.

won't they just try to dmca or take these down especially if they're more popular
The big loss for Anthropic here is how it reveals their product roadmap via feature flags. A big one is their unreleased "assistant mode" with code name kairos.

Just point your agent at this codebase and ask it to find things and you'll find a whole treasure trove of info.

Edit: some other interesting unreleased/hidden features

- The Buddy System: Tamagotchi-style companion creature system with ASCII art sprites

- Undercover mode: Strips ALL Anthropic internal info from commits/PRs for employees on open source contributions

Was experimenting with it but it felt like it'd have higher latency, and it seemed more feasible to do eyetracking on a single screen than across screens, especially with different webcam layouts and stuff
Re:Local LLM App by Ente on Wednesday March 25, 2026 @11:58PM (#47526496)
?

hundreds of local llm apps exist

the what's next section acts novel but all of them have been achieved or created in some format already: you can run a local llm on a phone and connect it to a agent

it gets to a point
wow it's interesting how noticeable sites built with claude maybe with the frotnend-design skill are now
Re:Anthropic, Please Make a New Slack on Sunday March 08, 2026 @08:22AM (#47296753)
Asking the company that is banning use of their subscription in other services, when other subscriptions like Codex and OpenCode don't, to make something that is interoperable with similar systems. Alright lol
