Show HN: Mantic.sh – A structural code search engine for AI agents

Show HN: Mantic.sh – A structural code search engine for AI agents Author here! Some context: I published this 48 hours ago and it was auto-listed on MCPMarket (the MCP tools directory). Got 700+ organic downloads with zero marketing—developers were actively searching for exactly this solution.<p>The &quot;Git Accelerator&quot; optimization story:<p>Initially used a file walker that took 6.6s on Chromium. Profiling showed 90% was filesystem I&#x2F;O. The fix: git ls-files returns 480k paths in ~200ms. Added smart heuristics for untracked files (only scan dirs &lt;50k files), bringing total to 0.46s.<p>Why this matters: Agents can&#x27;t wait 10 seconds for search. Sub-500ms makes it feel instant, changing how they explore codebases.<p>Installation:<p><pre><code> Cursor: npx mantic.sh@latest VS Code: npx mantic.sh@latest CLI: npm i -g mantic.sh </code></pre> Limitations: Mantic is optimized for precise queries (&quot;find stripe webhook&quot;) where structure matters. For fuzzy exploratory search, traditional embeddings may still be better. Curious if HN has ideas for hybrid approaches.<p>Happy to answer questions!

Show HN: Sqlit – A lazygit-style TUI for SQL databases

Show HN: Sqlit – A lazygit-style TUI for SQL databases I work mostly in the terminal but found myself constantly switching to bloated GUIs like SSMS only for the simple task of browsing tables and run queries. And I didn&#x27;t find Existing SQL TUIs intuitive, having to read documentation to learn keybindings and CLI flags to connect. Given I had recently switched to linux, I found myself using vs code&#x27;s sql database extension. Something was awfully wrong.<p>I wanted something like lazygit for databases – run it, connect, and query and frankly just make it enjoyable to access data.<p><pre><code> Sqlit is a keyboard-driven SQL TUI with: - Context-based keybindings (always visible) - Neovim-like interface with normal and insert mode for query editing - Browse databases, tables, views, stored procedures - Adapters for SQL Server, SQLite, PostgreSQL, Turso &amp; more - SSH tunneling support - Themes (Tokyo Night, Nord, Gruvbox etc.) Inspired by lazygit, neovim and lazysql. Built with Python&#x2F;Textual. </code></pre> Feedback welcome – especially on which adapters to prioritize next. My vision of sqlit is to make a tool that makes it easy to connect and query data, and to do that, and that thing only, really well.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Maxteabag&#x2F;sqlit" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Maxteabag&#x2F;sqlit</a>
