Show HN: Black Ops II statically recompiled to native ARM64 macOS

I grew up with Black Ops 2 and wanted to see if I could make it work on my 2020 MacBook Pro. So I used Claude Opus 5.5 to create a tool that converts your copy of the game (from Steam) to a native ARM64 Mac app, with almost 60fps in all areas. The whole game is statically recompilated ahead-of-time (AOT) and does not use any emulator whatsoever, be it Wine, Crossover or Rosetta. The best thing is the performance, although some heat issues are still to fix. You get to play the whole Campaign, local Multiplayer (with bots) and local Zombies (all DLCs maps; you need to have them in your Steam library obviously) at about 60fps. Split-screen was not in the PC version, but I've been working on it lately; it's coming soon! LAN mode is on the roadmap for later too :) Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50449891 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

Show HN: CodeLens AI-Augmented Code Review Tool

As AI writes more code, the bottleneck has become human-driven code reviews. Code Lens serves to aid that task by augmenting the review outside of line-level AI feedback. Check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks.Try it on a public PR: npx @blong8334/codelens pr https://github.com/expressjs/express/pull/7574 Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50446651 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

Show HN: Editmamei – Giving AI agents access to desktop Photoshop and GIMP

Hi HN!I built Editmamei, a local MCP server for Adobe Photoshop and GIMP.I built it because I wanted to connect Claude to a powerful photo editor, since Claude can't generate images itself. Apparently I wasn't the only one, Adobe previewed their own local Photoshop MCP yesterday, announcing at Adobe MAX a private beta in early 2027.Editmamei brings the AI agent of your choice into Photoshop and lets it do as much or as little of the editing as you want. It has tools to measure and inspect, apply filters, transform the image, insert other images and create objects, and it can use some of Photoshop's more advanced features like Select Subject and Sky Replacement.The agent "sees" each edit with downscaled previews, layer trees, histogram calculations and other tools, so someone who has never used Photoshop can ask for a recommended edit, and a professional can hand Editmamei the specific directions for tedious actions and batch automation, keeping the finishing and favorite parts for themselves. Everything is done layer by layer in a fully editable PSD, just as a normal Photoshop user would work.Photoshop has more features overall, but GIMP is just as capable for normal photo processing and design. The main difference is the Adobe-specific tools; GIMP doesn't have heal/clone or AI subject and sky selection. Photoshop runs on Windows and Mac; GIMP runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.Source available: https://github.com/editmamei/editmameiI'd love feedback, and suggestions for other editors this could support!

Show HN: We Gave AI Coding Agents Production Memory

Hi HN, I’m building Codela to help coding agents learn from what happens after their code ships.I realized that my AI agent writes a change, the tests pass, and it gets deployed. Then in production a problem happens, I fix it, but what it did wrong and why never reaches the agent, so futures session usually make the same mistake.Codela checks every deploy against how your app actually behaves in production, learns from the ones that broke it, and teaches your agents so they don’t repeat the mistake.Would love any feedback on this, thanks!

Show HN: Open-source customer-facing agents

Hi, Dmitri from Radioso here, an open-source platform to design AI agents for customers and visitors in any channel, in the style of Fin/Ada/Decagon. The repo is https://github.com/radioso-ai/radioso and our website is https://radioso.aiToday, your choices are:1. Buy a very expensive service for your vertical (usually starting with $$ five figures monthly) 2. Get a cheap off-the-shelf chatbot that mostly answers FAQs 3. Build your own, and then also build the inbox, human handoff, audit trail and integrations around itAt Radioso we wanted an open-source option that combines the best of all 3. You can integrate it with your own software via API/SDK or your CRM, or run it standalone, either self-hosted or in our cloud.The engine runs multi-step interactions and takes actions: calling your APIs, updating records, booking things. Maybe you’ve tried Parlant; Radioso is the alternative “with batteries included”: RAG, audit trail, customer service inbox, and integrations like Slack and email.Under the hood it’s plain TypeScript + PostgreSQL, works with OpenAI/Anthropic/other models, and is licensed under Apache 2.0 which includes all features (The only thing we keep under EE license is the multi-tenant layer we use to run our own cloud).We have existing customers running it for technical Q&A, course booking, online product recommendations and goods returns, among others, some reaching 92% of conversations automated. We’re currently working on voice support so we can offer a call center.Our ambition is to be “the WordPress of customer-facing AI” :), where people can contribute their favorite plugins and benefit from the ecosystem.Longer term, we think browsing the web will mostly mean talking to your own agent, and when you need a service or a purchase, your agent will talk to the vendor’s agent to get things done. For this, Radioso already publishes an A2A Agent Card and we’re working on the rest. Your Radioso services are also callable over MCP, for customers who already use it.Thanks for your attention. We’d especially love to hear which integrations you’d want, whether you’d self-host it, and what’s stopped you from deploying a customer-facing AI agent so far. Tell us what you think.

Show HN: Coldframe, a honeypot that poses as a supermarket fridge controller

I built Coldframe, a honeypot that pretends to be a supermarket refrigeration controller. Inspired by the events on industrial fridge installations in the past weeks, I wanted to see what people would try against a convincing fake.To learn more about this I built a honeypot that resembled perfectly the Danfoss AK-SM 800A and Dixell XWEB interfaces. Both of them are recognized on Shodan as real ones (an not as honeypots). It’s one Python file using only the standard library, and it builds on eppser/danfoss-ak-sm-decoy and public research by Synacktiv, Claroty and Ironhackers.Things that were fun to get right:- Matching real units. I used Shodan records of real devices to match header order, page titles, certificate fields and TLS versions. The Danfoss persona sends nginx headers in the same order as a real AK-SM 800A. The Dixell persona sends no Server header and pads its page to exactly 8,202 bytes.- Recognising exploit attempts. It recognises CVE-2025-41450, the Danfoss “code of the day” login bypass, and records whether the submitted code is correct for today. It also tags attempts targeting three other Danfoss CVEs and the XWEB vulnerabilities.- Letting them in. Default logins open a fake store dashboard with defrost buttons, so you see the second move, not just the first. Nothing behind it is real.Two instances have been live for a day. So far they’ve only seen generic scanners and Shodan’s crawler, which is called refrigerator.census.shodan.io.Feedback welcome, especially from anyone who has seen these devices in the field!

Show HN: Throng, a project first, terminal 2nd IDE for command line people

I've been beavering away at this since July, and its finally getting to a point where its stabilising.It started Windows only, but I recently converted over to Linux, so I've been ironing out the kinks in the last week. You can install it via apt or rpm, or .exe or .msi on Windows.Many more features to come, including native agent support and more preview features (images, PDF, document formats). Claude works pretty well in it, but I've not tried many other agents yet.I rarely leave throng now - 99% of my work happens inside it. I stopped using Visual Studio around 10 months ago (in favour of VSCode), and now I don't even use VSCode. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50412226 Points: 1 # Comments: 0
