Show HN: Ghostpipe – Connect files in your codebase to user interfaces
Show HN (score: 5)Description
I built Ghostpipe because:
1. I like to keep data about my software in the codebase and under version control.
2. I don’t like always working in raw text files with domain specific languages (eg Terraform, Openapi, er diagrams).
Ghostpipe is an open source tool that creates a bridge between files in your codebase and applications using webrtc. This lets developers work with user interfaces where appropriate, while still having access to the underlying raw text files.
A few side-benefits to this setup are:
1. AI agents are good at working with local text files, so we can keep using those.
2. Generally speaking, no signup or installation is needed to use Ghostpipe apps, because all relevant data is in the codebase.
I built a few demo apps with Ghostpipe support (Excalidraw & Swagger UI), and I hope this proof of concept spurs some interest in taking this idea further.
Thanks!

Show HN: KeyEnv – CLI-first secrets manager for dev teams (Rust)
Show HN: KeyEnv – CLI-first secrets manager for dev teams (Rust) Hi HN,<p>I built KeyEnv because I was tired of the "can you Slack me the Stripe key?" workflow.<p><pre><code> The problem: My team's secrets lived in a mix of Slack DMs, shared Google Docs, and .env files that definitely weren't in .gitignore at some point. Enterprise tools like Vault required more DevOps time than we had. Doppler was close but felt heavier than we needed. What KeyEnv does: keyenv init # link project keyenv pull # sync secrets to local .env keyenv run -- npm start # inject secrets, run command That's basically it. Secrets are encrypted client-side (AES-256-GCM) before leaving your machine. Zero-knowledge architecture—we can't read your secrets even if we wanted to. Technical details: - Single Rust binary, no runtime dependencies - Works offline (cached secrets) - RBAC for teams (owner/admin/member/viewer) - Service tokens for CI/CD - Full audit trail Honest tradeoffs: - SaaS only, no self-hosted option - Fewer integrations than Doppler - If you need dynamic secrets or PKI, use Vault Pricing: Free tier (3 projects, 100 secrets), $12/user/month for teams. Would love feedback on the CLI UX and any rough edges. Happy to answer questions about the architecture. </code></pre> <a href="https://www.keyenv.dev" rel="nofollow">https://www.keyenv.dev</a>

Show HN: On the edge of Apple Silicon memory speeds
Show HN: On the edge of Apple Silicon memory speeds I have developed open source CLI-tool for Apple Silicon macOS. It measures memory speeds in different ways and also latency. It can achieve up to 96-97% efficiency on read speed on M4 base what is advertised as 120GB/s. All memory operations are in assembly.<p>I would really appreciate for results on different CPU's how benchmark works on those. I have been able to test this on M1 and M4.<p>command : 'memory_benchmark -non-cacheable -count 5 -output results.JSON' (close all applications before running)<p>This will generate JSON file where you find sections copy_gb_s, read_gb_s and write_gb_s statics.<p>Example M4 with 10 loops: "copy_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 106.65421233311835, "max": 106.70240696071005, "median": 106.65069297260811, "min": 106.6336774994254, "p90": 106.66606919223108, "p95": 106.68423807647056, "p99": 106.69877318386216, "stddev": 0.01930653530818627 }, "values": [ 106.70240696071005, 106.66203166240008, 106.64410802226159, 106.65831409449595, 106.64148106986977, 106.6482935780762, 106.63974821679058, 106.65896986001393, 106.6336774994254, 106.65309236714002 ] }, "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 115.83111228356601, "max": 116.11098114619033, "median": 115.84480882265643, "min": 115.56959026587722, "p90": 115.99667266786554, "p95": 116.05382690702793, "p99": 116.09955029835784, "stddev": 0.1768243167963439 }, "values": [ 115.79154681380165, 115.56959026587722, 115.60574235736468, 115.72112860271632, 115.72147129262802, 115.89807083151123, 115.95527337086908, 115.95334642887214, 115.98397172582945, 116.11098114619033 ] }, "write_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 65.55966046805113, "max": 65.59040040480241, "median": 65.55933583741347, "min": 65.50911885624045, "p90": 65.5840272860955, "p95": 65.58721384544896, "p99": 65.58976309293172, "stddev": 0.02388146120866979 },<p>Patterns benchmark also shows bit more of memory speeds. command: 'memory_benchmark -patterns -non-cacheable -count 5 -output patterns.JSON'<p>Example M4 from 100 loops: "sequential_forward": { "bandwidth": { "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 116.38363691482549, "max": 116.61212708384109, "median": 116.41264548721367, "min": 115.449510036971, "p90": 116.54143114134801, "p95": 116.57314206456576, "p99": 116.60095068065866, "stddev": 0.17026641589059727 } } } }<p>"strided_4096": { "bandwidth": { "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 26.460392735220456, "max": 27.7722419653915, "median": 26.457051473208285, "min": 25.519925729459107, "p90": 27.105171215736604, "p95": 27.190715938337473, "p99": 27.360449534513144, "stddev": 0.4730857335572576 } } } }<p>"random": { "bandwidth": { "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 26.71367836895143, "max": 26.966820487564327, "median": 26.69907406197067, "min": 26.49374804466308, "p90": 26.845236287807374, "p95": 26.882004355057887, "p99": 26.95742242818151, "stddev": 0.09600564296001704 } } } }<p>Thank you for reading :)
