Anthropic shipped official documentation for Claude Code routines — reusable, composable workflows you can embed directly into your dev environment. This is the scaffolding for turning AI pair-programming from ad-hoc prompting into repeatable automation. If you use Claude Code daily, this changes how you structure your work.
Read the docs →Blackmagic Design expands Resolve beyond video with a dedicated photo editing module. RAW processing, color grading with the same tools filmmakers use, and it's free. The most upvoted story on HN today — the creative community is paying attention. A serious Lightroom alternative from a company that doesn't do subscriptions.
See DaVinci Resolve Photo →A threat actor purchased 30 popular WordPress plugins through legitimate marketplace transactions, then pushed updates containing backdoors to every user who had them installed. A supply-chain attack hiding in plain sight. If you manage any WordPress sites or advise clients who do, audit your plugin list today.
Read the breakdown →$ jj init — Jujutsu is the Git replacement that treats every working copy state as a commit. No staging area, automatic rebasing, first-class conflict resolution. This tutorial by Steve Klabnik is the on-ramp the project needed. 459 comments says the dev community is seriously evaluating the switch.
$ cat tutorial.md →Two stories dominating HN today: a campaign to stop Flock Safety's license-plate surveillance cameras from spreading through neighborhoods, and one person's account of writing to Flock's privacy contact to opt out of their domestic monitoring program. Together they paint a picture of growing grassroots resistance to automated surveillance infrastructure being deployed without meaningful consent.
Visit StopFlock.com →Google is baking "Skills" directly into Chrome — save your most-used AI prompts as reusable one-click tools accessible from the browser toolbar. This bridges the gap between power-user prompt engineering and everyday browser workflows. If you're already building AI-assisted workflows, this is a new distribution channel for your best prompts.
Read Google's announcement →Google's Gemma 4 model now runs fully offline on iPhone hardware — no cloud, no API calls, no data leaving the device. This is the inflection point for on-device AI: capable enough to be useful, private enough to be trustworthy. Opens up entirely new categories of iOS apps that can reason locally.
See the details →The EFF sounds the alarm on proposed California legislation that would require 3D printers to refuse certain print jobs — essentially building censorship into hardware. The bill's scope is broad enough to affect hobbyists, makers, and small manufacturers. A collision between safety regulation and the right to general-purpose computing.
Read the EFF analysis →A developer shares their complete AI-assisted workflow — how they integrate LLMs into their daily coding practice, what works, what doesn't, and where the productivity gains actually land. Practical, opinionated, and full of specific tool choices. The kind of "show your setup" post that reveals real patterns.
Read the workflow →DuckDB is already the Swiss Army knife of local analytics. OpenDuck scales it horizontally — run distributed queries across multiple DuckDB instances as if they were one database. For anyone processing datasets that outgrew a single machine but don't warrant a full data warehouse, this fills an important gap.
View on GitHub →An open-source skills framework that layers reusable, composable capabilities on top of Claude Code — TDD workflows, brainstorming protocols, debugging skills, and more. You're already running it. Worth tracking upstream changes and new community skills as they land.
View on GitHub →Federico Viticci's legendary Shortcut for wrapping screenshots in pixel-perfect Apple device frames gets a major overhaul: frame color options, proportional scaling, and — the big one — an Apple Frames CLI for developers. Automate device mockups from the terminal or CI pipeline. If you ship iOS or Mac apps, this just saved you hours in Figma.
Read on MacStories →A deep look at the next iteration of Claude's cowork mode — how the collaborative coding experience has evolved, what patterns power users have discovered, and where it fits in a multi-agent workflow. If you run Claude Code sessions daily, this maps the frontier of what's possible with the latest capabilities.
Read the breakdown →Kill the macOS space-switching animation entirely and get instant workspace transitions — using native APIs, no hacks. If you juggle multiple desktops (and who doesn't with a tiling window manager), this one tweak removes the single most annoying friction point in the macOS workspace flow. Tiny change, outsized quality-of-life gain.
Read the guide →The creator of Obsidian ships a new plugin that brings "skills" — reusable AI-powered actions — directly into the note-taking workflow. Summarize, extract, transform, and generate content within your vault using composable prompts. If Obsidian is your second brain, this gives it agency.
View on GitHub →A free macOS-native AI app that runs local models on Apple Silicon with zero cloud dependency. No account, no API key, no data leaving your machine. The intersection of on-device AI and Mac-first design — exactly the kind of privacy-respecting tool that's hard to find through mainstream channels.
Try Apfel →GitHub ships an official CLI extension for stacked pull requests — break large changes into reviewable, dependent PR chains that stay in sync automatically. This has been the most-requested workflow gap for teams doing trunk-based development. No more rebasing nightmare when the base PR changes.
See gh-stack →A design tool that lets you build wireframes entirely from Unicode box-drawing characters — copy-paste the result into any text document, terminal, or code comment. Delightfully constrained: when your wireframe is pure text, it lives everywhere your code does. Perfect for READMEs, architecture docs, and quick prototyping without leaving the editor.
Try Wiretext →Upload a photo and see exactly what modern AI vision models extract: location estimates, emotional state, relationships, wealth indicators, brand affiliations, and more. A visceral demonstration of how much metadata-free images still reveal to machine learning. The kind of thing that makes you rethink what you post.
See what AI sees →Replaces the macOS Dock with a Windows-style taskbar that shows open windows, workspace indicators, and system stats in a compact strip. For power users who find the Dock more decorative than functional, this reclaims vertical screen space and puts active-window management front and center. One of those "why didn't Apple do this" utilities.
