CLI Tool
Show HN: Give Claude Code control of your browser (open-source) As I started to use Claude Code to do more random tasks I realized I could basically build any CLI tool and it would use it. So I built one that controls the browser and open-sourced it. It should work with Codex or any other CLI-based agent!

I have a long term idea where the models are all local and then the tool is privacy preserving because it's easy to remove PII from text, but I'd definitely not recommend using this for anything important just yet. You'll need a Gemini key until I (or someone else) figure out how to distill a local version out of that part of the pipeline.

Show HN: Control Claude permissions using a cloud-based decision table UI

Show HN: Control Claude permissions using a cloud-based decision table UI We’ve been building visual rule engines (clear interfaces + API endpoints that help map input data to a large number of outcomes) for a while and had the fun idea lately to see what happens when we use our decision table UI with Claude’s PreToolUse hook.<p>The result is a surprisingly useful policy&#x2F;gating layer– these tables let your team:<p>- Write multi-factor, exception-friendly policies (e.g. deny rm -rf &#x2F; when --force; allow cleanup only in node_modules; ask on network calls like curl&#x2F;wget; block kubectl delete or SQL DROP, each with a clear reason)<p>- Roll out policy changes instantly (mid-run, flip a risky operation from allow → ask; the next attempt across devs and agents is gated immediately– no git pull, agent restart, or coordination)<p>- Adopt lightweight governance that is somewhat agent agnostic and survives churn (MCP&#x2F;skills&#x2F;etc)- just add columns&#x2F;rules as new tools and metadata show up<p>- Get a quick central utility to understand which tools are being used, which tools get blocked most often, and why

Show HN: Claude Code Scheduler

Show HN: Claude Code Scheduler I found myself frequently wanting to schedule tasks in Claude Code (both one-time and recurring) so I built a CC plugin to help with that.<p>To install: &#x2F;plugin marketplace add jshchnz&#x2F;claude-code-scheduler &#x2F;plugin install scheduler@claude-code-scheduler<p>Then just tell Claude what you want (some examples):<p>Every Wednesday at 3am find dead code: unused functions, unreachable branches, commented-out code, and unused imports. List by file with line numbers.<p>Schedule a code review every weekday at 9am. Review commits from the last 24 hours, check for bugs, security issues, error handling gaps, and code that needs comments. Summarize with file:line references.
