Show HN: AgentKV – SQLite for AI agent memory (MMAP vector+graph DB)
Hi HN! I built AgentKV — an embeddable vector + graph database for AI agents.
The problem: I was building a local LLM assistant and needed to store conversation history + RAG documents. ChromaDB/Pinecone require running servers. FAISS has no persistence. I wanted something that just works like SQLite.
AgentKV is a single-file mmap database with: • Vector search (HNSW index) + graph relations • Crash recovery with CRC-32 checksums • Zero servers, zero config files • Thread-safe concurrent reads • pip install agentkv (Python 3.9+) Real examples in the repo: • Local RAG with Ollama (10 lines) • Multi-turn chatbot with memory • Agent coordination with context graphs
Built in C++20 with mmap + nanobind Python bindings. Benchmarked against FAISS — competitive throughput with built-in persistence.
Open to feedback on the API design and any use cases I'm missing!

Show HN: DetectZeStack – Tech stack detection API with 4 detection layers
I built a REST API that detects what technologies any website is running. You give it a URL, it gives you back the full stack: frameworks, CMS, CDNs, analytics, payment processors, etc.
What makes it different from BuiltWith/Wappalyzer:
- 4 detection layers running simultaneously: Wappalyzer fingerprinting (3,500+ signatures), DNS CNAME analysis (29 infrastructure signatures), TLS certificate inspection (8 issuer patterns), and custom HTTP header matching. Most tools only do one of these.
- Batch endpoint: analyze up to 10 URLs in a single request with concurrent processing.
- Compare endpoint: pass 2-10 URLs, get back shared vs unique technologies.
- CPE identifiers on every detected technology, so you can map directly to the NVD vulnerability database for security audits.
- 24-hour smart cache: cached responses return in <5ms and don't count against your quota.
Tech stack: Go, chi router, SQLite, wappalyzergo. Runs on a single Fly.io machine.
Free tier is 100 requests/month. Pro is $29.99 for 25K requests — significantly cheaper than BuiltWith ($295/mo minimum).
Try the live demo on the homepage, or check the API spec: https://detectzestack.fly.dev/openapi.yaml
Happy to answer questions about the detection approach or the architecture.

Show HN: Clue (Cluedo) Solver/Assistant
After playing a few rounds of the board game Clue (aka Cluedo) with my kids I thought "this is a logic problem! We can automate away all the fun!"
I quickly found it'd been done before, but with a required server-side (Python or Rust) component. I rewrote it as a standalone SPA and spruced up the UI a bit.
Hope people find it useful or fun!
