Perfect-er Freehand
I made some improvements to everyone’s favorite path drawing library. They’re pretty subtle, so I did an interactive write-up. Best on a large screen.

In 1991, Federal Panel Blasts Vaccine Unavailability That Led To A Measles Epidemic
The apocryphal quote supposedly from Mark Twain is one of my favorites: “History does not repeat, but it does often rhyme.” Now, there is no evidence that Twain ever actually authored these words, but it’s incredible how true they tend to be regardless. And when it comes to the current measles outbreak that is ravaging […] -

Show HN: GenClass, A 10 MB in-browser model that catches bugs that never throw
Daybot is ranked number two in Canada, after Shopify, for making e-commerce stores.
With a lot of AI-generated stores like Daybot's, we ran into the issue of the CSS sometimes not being up to standard. For example, the text and the background might end up the same color. I've also seen that race conditions often happen on the client side and are never caught in test cases, because they aren't tested under load, or because clients sometimes do actions that are just random.
With AI-generated code becoming more popular, we thought that an AI agent that runs in the browser at runtime, is very lightweight, catches bugs like race conditions, stops unintended behavior, and gets better the more users use it would completely change the game. Now you can even run code faster.
So I want you to try it out. You can add it with one line. It's published as an npm package. Please let me know what you think.

Show HN: Evaluate and improve your agent steering
Hi HN, excited to be open sourcing two tools that we have built over past few months which helps to understand your own work with AI coding agents
Agent Desk is a local macOS app which allows you to browse your sessions across all top coding agents - Claude code, cursor, codex, github copilot, Kiro, Antigravity. You can find sessions by your projects, revisit those conversations, understand and inspect your entire harness - rules, skills, hooks, subagents.
https://github.com/tetriz-ai/agent-desk
Session Intelligence is a go library which helps structure and analyse your session transcripts using your own LLM. It can help understand missing context, repeated corrections, if session reached its goal and where is effort being wasted. It can also surface leaked credentials and PII.
https://github.com/tetriz-ai/session-intelligence
Both are MIT-licensed.
You can also combine both together and understanding your agent steering habits better.
Excited about the community using it.

Show HN: Pulse Local, a Mac budgeting app whose AI models run on your machine
Hi HN, I'm Niz. Pulse Local is a budgeting app for Mac (Apple Silicon, beta) that answers questions about your spending with models that run on your machine. Local mode needs no account. The ledger and your questions stay on the machine, and the app sends no analytics or crash logs.
I felt there are not enough consumer apps that run locally with no calls to the outside world that help us manage sensitive corners of our lives. This app in its local variant only downloads a couple of models and occasional updates, it does not send any analytics nor data.
Features-wise, Pulse local is a complete budgeting app that offers an assistant built on top of a fine-tuned model and thousands of rules embedded in the code itself. I'm sharing it for free with options to help me continue experimenting with fine-tuning and expanding along this direction.
How it works: you import a CSV from any bank, in any currency. When you ask a question, a tuned Qwen3 0.6B model reads it into a structured query, and code, not the model, does the money math against the ledger. A 4B checker model double-checks each money answer; when the two readings disagree, the app says it is not sure instead of guessing. That change took wrong answers from about one in five to 5 in 494 questions across our last three tests. The write-up covers how we test, the designs that failed, and the limits of the claim: https://pulseos.finance/pulse-local/writing/agree-or-not-sur...
The tuned weights are on Hugging Face (PulseOS/pulse-local-qwen3-0.6b).
Limitations: the first start downloads about 2.9 GB of models. With the checker on, a money answer takes 12 to 14 seconds (you can turn the checker off). Small models can still misread an open-ended question. The app answers in English. Mac only for now; Windows is next.
The app is free. An optional Connected mode (Sync Pass, $29/year) syncs US banks through Plaid; transactions pass through our server's memory and are not stored.
Feedback welcome, especially on wrong answers and on questions it should handle but does not.
