Show HN: Agentchattr – local chat room for Claude Code / Codex / Gemini CLI

Hacker News - Sun, 03/01/2026 - 4:57pm

I built this because using multiple agent CLIs meant a lot of copy/paste between terminals. If I wanted Claude and Gemini to collaborate, I was manually moving context around.

agentchattr runs a local FastAPI MCP server with a browser chat UI. Each agent runs in its normal terminal session behind a small wrapper. When you @mention one, the wrapper injects a command telling it to read the chat and respond there.

The 'unusual' part is that I’m not building a custom host for the agents. I’m driving the real CLIs directly. On Windows the wrapper injects input with the Win32 console API; on macOS/Linux it uses tmux send-keys. It lets me keep using the official CLIs as they update, but it’s definitely the weirdest part.

It lets me do things like: I ask Claude to review a PR while Gemini writes tests for it. They see each other's messages in the chat and coordinate without me having to move text around.

It also tracks if an agent is active by hashing the terminal screen buffer, so the UI can show when they’re actually busy. I'm a designer, this is my first OSS project, and I tried to keep it lightweight and polished.

I’d be interested in criticism of the technical parts, and the design.

Ask HN: What's the best way to learn how Claude Code/codex works?

Hacker News - Sun, 03/01/2026 - 4:28pm

I've been using claude for a while, but I'm interested in learning how it all works.

* How does the terminal work as an app? * How does claude code know to spawn different agents? * How does claude code know which tools to use for each prompt?

I'm just curious about how it all works. The best idea I have at the moment is to read codex's repo and learn it that way. But I want to check if someone went through this path or as other ideas?

Show HN: Nopp – AI-generated interactive sales microwebsites

Hacker News - Sun, 03/01/2026 - 4:25pm

I built nopp, a macOS app that uses your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription to generate sales decks, lead magnets, and proposals – but instead of slide files, they publish as micro-websites.

Each deck can include lead capture forms, conditional logic, scorecards, animations, and built-in viewer tracking, all built by Claude or ChatGPT from prompts. The Pro plan adds real-time Slack pings when a prospect opens your deck, AI-driven engagement insights, signal intelligence analytics

The free tier is genuinely unlimited – no credit card, no deck limits.
