gautamp8··on Show HN: AgentMail – Email infra for AI agents
Sorry for plugging in our product here but this comment seemed relevant. We are actually building something similar at mxgo[.]ai. Started exactly same way as you did, now working on a chrome extension with suggestions within inbox. Would love to connect and know your feedback.
gautamp8··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (June 2025)
I'm building Mxtoai.com - email handles backed by ai agents to automate any workflow. Fully open source. Goal is to save time in the inbox.
gautamp8··on Show HN: Non-intrusive AI agent to automate email driven workflows
Yeah, we've already gotten this feedback, working on it. We'll be making a chrome extension live soon, to simplify this and suggest what handles + instructions you can send to MXtoAI.

If you have a better experience in mind, let us know. If this goes well and users trust us enough, we might work on an automated inbox monitoring service to automatically run workflows for you.

gautamp8··on Show HN: Non-intrusive AI agent to automate email driven workflows
We have common usecases documented here - https://docs.mxtoai.com/why-use-mxtoai. For founders, we're looking to simplify scheduling, background research, sales & marketing automations. This agent would become more powerful when we integrate day-to-day tools like Calendly, Asana, Zoom, Salesforce etc. We're currently evaluating going via MCP route vs direct integrations.
gautamp8··on Show HN: Non-intrusive AI agent to automate email driven workflows
We're not getting OAuth for calendar apps at the moment. Common integrations like GCal, Calendly is something we're actively building. Goal for MVP was to make it as simple as possible to try out without taking lot of user accesses.

Current schedule@ will send you a direct link to add to your calendar along with a .ics attachment.

Thank you, you can actually include it in an email chain already. Try it out and let us know how it goes!

This is great feedback, chrome extension is definitely being built. Will add forwarding rules for email clients and look into trial mode.
gautamp8··on Show HN: Non-intrusive AI agent to automate email driven workflows
Thanks for the feedback. We'd be open sourcing it soon with managed version and maybe do another Show HN then.

We are not storing emails anywhere, only as transient tasks. It'd be clearer when source is open. Would love to know your usecases for making self-hosting better.

Co-founder here, will keep answering comments/questions for next few hours. We built this to be security and privacy first tool. We're aware of general feedback around improving experience wrt forwarding.

We're working on making this agent better everyday, open sourcing it soon. Would love to hear from power email users what kind of tasks this agent can help automate.

gautamp8··on Show HN: We’re open-sourcing Requestly - HTTP debugging proxy for Web and Mobile
I believe you must be saving the sessions in your cloud, is it possible to download the sessions locally?
gautamp8··on Show HN: We’re open-sourcing Requestly - HTTP debugging proxy for Web and Mobile
Thank you for open sourcing Requestly. Session recording sounds interesting for my usecase, can you share a bit about how does it work? Is it similar to LogRocket?

gautamp8··on Ask HN: How to learn writing blog posts?
If you're a dev, I could suggest https://bloggingfordevs.com/ community and newsletter by Monica Lent. Found it really good with actionable insights.
gautamp8··on Notes on My Colon Cancer
Thanks for the response. Yeah, medical science is still so much limited when it comes to cancer. I did lot of research on Integrative cancer care post our experience and realized how positive changes to lifestyle impacts the mind and body. Now trying to help others going through similar challenges through self hosted support group sessions.

I've subscribed to your writings, looking forward to them. I'm also a Software Engineer professionally. :)

gautamp8··on Notes on My Colon Cancer
Colon cancer usually comes with incomplete evacuation, traces/bloody stool, any surprising/major change in bowel habits. Many other diseases have similar symptoms(IBD) so it's difficult to distinguish a bit. In general, any kind of inflammation in body could be a trigger to cancer.
gautamp8··on Notes on My Colon Cancer
I can vouch for Tom's trial finder too. Used it during my brother's treatment. Tom was an inspiration.
gautamp8··on Notes on My Colon Cancer
I second this. Lost my brother 2.5 years ago to CRC, what happened with Boseman happened with us 15 years earlier. He was 27. After a year long of chemotherapy for treating Stage III, his cancer returned within 15 days. No family history of any kind of cancer. It's extremely aggressive in young age. Might sound scary but please get screened earlier if possible. It can mean life and death.
gautamp8··on Notes on My Colon Cancer
Thank you for writing this experience so wonderfully. I can really relate to this journey. Lost my brother to Colorectal cancer 2.5 years back, he was 27 at the time. What happened with Boseman happened with us 15 years earlier(Stage III transitioning to IV). We didn't have any family history of cancer. He was wild type for all kind of known mutations (KRAS, NRAS and BRAF) for the cancer. In simple terms, doctors didn't know what exactly caused his cancer.

I'm also at a good risk of getting it at some point probably. I'm 23 rn, last colonoscopy didn't show any polyps fortunately. Trying to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle. Every cancer writeup is kinda scary for me.

At the time of diagnosis, my brother was going through stressful situations(his startup, personal life), not able to focus much on physical and mental health. I'd like to know if Chris thinks there was something else that triggered/fueled his cancer apart from genetics.
