Show HN: Automatically detect and patch walking-dead states in Sierra games
Show HN (score: 8)Show HN: Automatically detect and patch walking-dead states in Sierra games Hi HN, I've become lazier in my old age and struggle to replay my favorite Sierra games from the 80s and 90s because I keep getting into those situations where I need an item from 3 acts ago, I have no save game handy, and now I gotta make dinner.<p>So I'm building the Lucasartsifier: a static analysis tool that decompiles Sierra resource files, automatically finds those states, automatically generates code to prevent the player from getting into those states, then emits loose patch files that can be placed alongside the original game resources. There's no game-specific code involved; all the logic is generic, though of course Sierra introduces new idioms and mechanics in every game so every new supported game needs a bunch of engine work.<p>So for example in Leisure Suit Larry 2, the patched game prevents you from boarding the cruise ship until you have both the sunscreen and the Grotesque Gulp. Without them you die on the raft 3 play-hours later.<p>So far this works on Leisure Suit Larry 2 (SCI0), King's Quest 4 (SCI0), King's Quest 6 (SCI1.1), and Laura Bow 2 (SCI1.1). I'm currently working on King's Quest 5 (SCI1.0).<p>This is work done with Claude -- I do the design and playtesting and it does the rest :D<p>Any feedback, play testing, and suggestions would be great!

Show HN: Maritime, a platform for running AI agents for $1 a month
Show HN (score: 6)Show HN: Maritime, a platform for running AI agents for $1 a month Hi HN, my name is Maria, and I’m a co-founder of Maritime. We started Maritime at MIT to build infrastructure for companies that need to run thousands of isolated AI agents for their customers.<p>Imagine you set up an agent like OpenClaw, or a personal assistant agent with a custom framework, and want to give a separate version of it to every customer/friend. Each customer needs their own agent running in an isolated microVM, with persistent state, secrets, triggers, and sleep/wake behavior.<p>Building such scalable and secure infra will take you months and will cost hundreds of thousands. Also, you still can't vibe code the infra well.<p>So Maritime handles that infrastructure for you.<p>We charge $1 per agent per month, so running 100 isolated agents costs $100 a month.<p>Maritime is designed for companies running thousands of agents, but starting today, any developer can run three agents for free forever.<p>You can use our templates to spin up OpenClaw, Hermes, and the DeepSeek agent and keep all three for free. You can also deploy custom agents through our CLI or SDK and use Maritime as the infra provider for your stratup.<p>You can try it at <a href="https://maritime.sh" rel="nofollow">https://maritime.sh</a>. We’d really appreciate your feedback, especially on the developer experience
Show HN: Clinch – Local-first Warp fork built for agent session management
Show HN (score: 5)Show HN: Clinch – Local-first Warp fork built for agent session management Warp was my daily driver for years, and I still love the core product. But I wanted more privacy, less Oz agent stuff and a better UX experience for managing all my Claude Code/Codex sessions, especially across the repos I'm working on at once.<p>So I forked Warp, gutted all the telemetry, account requirements, Oz agent stuff and have fine tuned the UX over the months to optimize it for session management. The awesome Warp terminal is still first class (auto complete, auto command suggestion etc) but with lots of QoL improvements for agent session management and organization.<p>Some notable features:<p>* Claude Code and Codex sessions auto resume with the correct flags if you ever quit/restart Clinch -- this is a huge issue in Warp for me and always prevented me from updating to the latest version of Warp.<p>* Clinch CLI + Skill so Claude and Codex can auto create new tabs for you and even auto suggest quick response buttons (see below). This is especially nice when you ask Claude to run a local web server, it will auto run it in a new tab so it's not hidden in the background of a Claude session.<p>* Remote control using Tailscale, use and control Clinch from your phone.<p>* Left side panel contains all your sessions/terminal tabs (switch between with CMD + SHIFT + [) for a repo. Each repo/project has its own tab in the header, quickly switch between them with CMD + [.<p>* Instantly see agent status (working, done, needs input, idle).<p>* Customizable sections in the left side panel to organize your sessions into groups i.e. "In Progress" and "Backlog" etc.<p>* Customizable quick response buttons in the footer of Claude and Codex sessions to quickly respond with: "/compact", "LGTM, continue" or "Review this with Fable" etc.<p>* Action buttons in the footer:<p><pre><code> One-click transfer a Claude Code session to a Codex session and vice versa. One-click fork session in new tab. </code></pre> 100% open source and free. No account or signup needed.<p>This is a personal project that I enjoy working on in my spare time. macOS only for now, but if there is interest I will add Linux support next.

Show HN: PantheonGPU – GPU health testing and AI workload benchmarking
Show HN (score: 9)Show HN: PantheonGPU – GPU health testing and AI workload benchmarking Hi HN, I built PantheonGPU because I wanted a better way to answer a simple question: is this GPU actually healthy and performing the way it should?<p>A GPU can show normal temperatures and utilization and still be underperforming, unstable under certain workloads, or have memory, PCIe, or configuration issues.<p>PantheonGPU actively tests the GPU instead of only monitoring telemetry. It currently includes 45+ tests covering compute, tensor workloads, memory, cache, PCIe, thermals, stability, and AI/LLM inference.<p>It supports both NVIDIA CUDA and AMD ROCm.<p>I’m also exploring a larger use case: running Pantheon across GPU fleets to identify individual GPUs that behave differently from the rest of a server or cluster.<p>I’d especially appreciate feedback from people running AI infrastructure, multi-GPU systems, local LLMs, or GPU clouds.

Show HN: macOS data protection keychain for Electron apps
Hacker News (score: 11)Show HN: macOS data protection keychain for Electron apps Hey HN,<p>I've been working on Hansel [1] (an encrypted personal data store you can query with agents), and there wasn't a good way to use the modern macOS Data Protection Keychain.<p>Electron's safeStorage [2] uses the legacy file-based keychain, which allows other apps/agents to query it with the `security` CLI. Not great when you have a dozen agents running in the background! The Data Protection Keychain is nice because it limits access via code-signing access groups and lets you set access rules like Touch ID and/or password.<p>1: <a href="https://hansel.so/" rel="nofollow">https://hansel.so/</a><p>2. <a href="https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/safe-storage" rel="nofollow">https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/safe-storage</a>

Show HN: Openleetcode – local LeetCode runner where tests live in the repo
Hacker News (score: 29)Show HN: Openleetcode – local LeetCode runner where tests live in the repo You write a standard solution, just like on LeetCode, and run it through the CLI. It identifies the problem by ID or title, executes your code against local test cases, and shows the result.<p>It currently supports around 1.4k problems and multiple languages, including Python, C++, Rust, Java, Go, TypeScript, Swift, and others.<p>The project is still an MVP. System design, SQL, and concurrency problems are not supported yet, but support for more problem types is planned.<p>Made in Haskell!
