For me quitting preview, or maybe it is settings, resolves it.
thecopy··on MCP server that reduces Claude Code context consumption by 98%
Im trying it anyway
thecopy··on MCP server that reduces Claude Code context consumption by 98%
Very interesting, one big wrinkle with OP:s approach is exactly that, the structured responses are un-touched, which many tools return. Solution in OP as i understand it is the "execute" method. However, im building an MCP gateway, and such sandboxed execution isnt available (...yet), so your approach to this sounds very clever. Ill spend this day trying that out
thecopy··on Block the “Upgrade to Tahoe” alerts
Im planning on getting the new M5 MBP i expect to be released next week. Is it possible to downgrade? I assume it comes with Tahoe :(
thecopy··on I tried building my startup entirely on European infrastructure
Super timely - thank you! Im in the process of moving the entire stack of my SaaS* fully in EU as well. Hetzner bare-metal, Talos k8s, OVH Object Storage for backups, self-hosted (for now) image repo. For now im still on Cloudflare for CDN, but bunny looks interesting. Using GitOps (FluxCD) as deployment strategy enables no dependencies on e.g. GitHub Actions.

For one thing running on bare-metal @ Hetzner is insane value for money versus GCP GKE. Im a third of the running costs and get ~50x resources.

The only aspect im struggling with is full-disk encryption. Although customer data is still encrypred with envelope encryption in the database, i want to migrate to fully encrypted disks (LUKS + TPM) sooner rather than later. If anyone has any resources and/or experience with this, please let know :)

I also get uneasy feeling, that the "values.yaml" section, it feels often underspecified and a black-box.

It all seems so surprisingly unnecessary. Angry geriatric man f*cks the world up for generations to come, then in a short bit he will die, and not have to live through the consequences.

As a reference, ~1500-2000 people die every year due to cars in Spain.

Reminder that only 1-2% of the files have been released.
thecopy··on Show HN: Agent-of-empires: OpenCode and Claude Code session manager
This is what we are looking at at one of my clients. A2A clients (Slack, Google Meet, considering email) to A2A Orchestrator server (in-house, might be open-sourced) with specialized subagents for e.g. GitHub issue creation following a specific teams patterns and conventions, hooked up to company-wide MCP gateway with federated OIDC trust for passthrough auth (https://www.gatana.ai)

Works pretty well so far. Biggest issue i foresee for success is user UX for average employee, and actually useful use-cases.

thecopy··on Hyundai Introduces Its Next-Gen Atlas Robot at CES 2026 [video]
Im sorry, but this is just too much. This is an industrial product. Decisions will not be made based on emotions from a demo at CES.

The big companies simply gives the predisent of the USA a made-up peace prize or a gold Rolex and get exempted.
thecopy··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (December 2025)
https://docs.gatana.ai/

Enterprise/Organization focused MCP gateway with support for sophisticated credentials management, integrates with OIDC/SAML, team and profiles support, external secret stores (AWS/GCP/Azure/Hashicrop Vault), using envelope encryption, and in-band-MCP authorization trigger for e.g. trying to use a tool which Gatana not yet has credentials for.

Ideal for Agent-2-Agent/dev teams/Github Copilot Agent (the one you assign issues)

Stack is k8s, NodeJS, React, Google KMS, hosted on GKE, with GKE Sandbox for local server isolation.

I have seen links to semianalysis before, i just am scared of the length of this content. Is anyone reading these start to finish? Why?
thecopy··on EU Council approves Chat Control mandate for negotiation with Parliament
Seems… fine? At least i dont see any invasion of privacy or encryption related obligations in this proposal.

The EU ostensibly wants to improve innovation, i wonder how these new assessment regulations help with that, especially for SME and startups.

thecopy··on Show HN: I built the literal Duolingo Killer
>4.8 star global App Store rating

Which app store?

thecopy··on Open Source and Local Code Mode MCP in Deno Sandboxes
What i have read its in the range of 60-80.

(shameless plug: im building an cloud based gateway where the set of servers given to an mcp client can be controlled using "profiles": https://docs.gatana.ai/profiles/)

thecopy··on A new chapter begins for EV batteries with the expiry of key LFP patents
From the perspective of the user, battery being cold does not matter. How it does not matter i dont care about, for user it is solved.

Now, we can go into the weeds as to what constitutes solved and we might agree or disagree.

thecopy··on A new chapter begins for EV batteries with the expiry of key LFP patents
>That's a hack, not a solution.

Why do you say that? It sounds like a simple solution to me.

thecopy··on EU Plans $371B Build-Out of High-Speed Rail Corridors
>Cars can also be more convenient than transit, and we tax them for it.

Well, it is not taxed because it is convenient. It is taxed because of the huge negative externalities it brings with it.

Building an MCP Gateway: https://www.gatana.ai/

Idea came from one of my clients, where they wanted to use AI agents throughout the organization but at that moment there was no centralized governance or security concepts. This pulls everything at one place and tries to solve the security concept with per-user credentials, which can be provided out-of-band through the MCP protocol (generated a one-time link end-user can use to sign in to the underlying MCP server with OAuth or provide API key)

thecopy··on Why are so many pedestrians killed by cars in the US?
At its core it comes from the infrastructure paying zero respect to non-drivers.
thecopy··on Being blocked from contributing to lodash
Agreed. It seems there was no initial communication, consideration of the existing maintainers opinions or evaluation of current deployment processes.

OP simply pushed his personal opinion on how lodash (extremely popular library) should be deployed. Proceeds to get confused and upset when this is rejected.

I suggest to OP to work on his social skills.

Try DuckDuck Go, it performs significantly better than Google for me
thecopy··on Building a better online editor for TypeScript
I worked on adding a web-vscode editor in my project (MCP gateway https://mcp-boss.com). Initially i also spun up a container to provide terminal access, package installation etc. It turned out to be very resource intensive, and the cold-start-up UX sucked. This approach also comes with scaling challenges.

Leaning on CloudFlare Containers seems like a good balance though. But im wondering what the limits are, some packages are very large and require more than just Javascript (e.g node gyp).

(Personally I ended up hosting a web-only VS code served as static files. Luckily i dont need to support Deno syntax so the built-in Typescript language server worked fine.)
