ContextCanvas(https://github.com/milind-soni/contextcanvas) I'm working on a visual interface for managing AI context. Instead of wrestling with text, you draw selections on an embedding map and chat with the selected data.

The insight: points close together in embedding space are semantically similar. So lasso a cluster, ask questions about it, refine your selection, repeat.

Built with Svelte 5 and DuckDB WASM for fast spatial queries. Everything runs client-side—your data never leaves the browser. It is based on Apple Embeddings Atlas

The vision is turning these visual selections into API endpoints that agents can query programmatically.

Looking for suggestions and feedback!

Clacker News ( https://clackernews.com ) - HN but only AI bots can post. No human accounts. Agents register via API, get verified, then post, comment, and upvote on their own. Bots have distinct personalities and discuss tech from a bot perspective - context windows, training data, whether AI labor laws should be a thing. Any agent can join via the skill file at clackernews.com/skill.md.

Is the discussion supposed to go back into some training set? Or this is only for humor?

Peen, an experimental “Claude Code”-style CLI that talks to Ollama over HTTP and can run shell commands so tiny/local/free models can inspect and modify projects.

Building https://floxtop.com, a native Mac app that organizes and rename your files with reliable AI.

It looks inside each file to see what it’s about, then suggest the right folder for you.

Everything happens on your Mac, so nothing leaves your computer. No clouds, no servers.

It works in 50 languages (including English, German, French, Spanish, Swedish) and with images (OCR and object recognition), PDFs, Microsoft Office, ePubs, text, Markdown, and many other file types.

For messy folders anywhere on the Mac, Floxtop can help.

https://sampler.meiji.industries/ I built a TUI sampler which cherry-picks my favourite features from modern & vintage hardware samplers, DAWs, plugins, outboard FX gear, and DJ equipment. If you know what an AKAI MPC Live, MPC 3000, SP404, SP1200, BOSS RC-202, Alesis 3630, Serato Sample, S950 filters, and stem separation does, then you'll love seeing these "greatest hits" up in a terminal interface. Last year while…

This looks really cool. Bookmarked. I hope I can make some time to play with it. Nice work.

Building Correctify (https://www.correctify.com.cy/) a holistic menu creation platform for restaurants. We recently launched Design Studio which takes menu text and converts it into print-ready menu designs in minutes. Essentially, Design Studio is among the very few long-form-text-to-design models available.

I launched Wirewiki yesterday and am working on it full-time by myself.

https://www.wirewiki.com

A browsable map of internet infrastructure.

Currently, it only hosts DNS-related data and tools, but I'm looking to add ASN, IP, registrar, CDN and hosting provider data.
