Hey HN,

I'm Namanyay and I've been using Cursor since 2 years, but it seems to make mistakes as the project size grows.

This caused me to have to repeat myself a lot and it used to break my flow.

I realized it's because Cursor (and other AI tools) are not able to keep an overview of the project. Plus, Cursor does not have a "memory" layer to remember important things that the user has already mentioned.

I solved this by building an open-source MCP which maintains project and memory information within the user's file system.

It's simple and installation takes 30 seconds.

Would love feedback! Are you using AI already? Do you encounter issues like this?

Has anyone successfully used Apple's Self Service Repair Store recently? I've tried ordering a battery replacement kit and toolkit for an iPhone 13 mini this week. Despite multiple attempts using different credit cards (Visa and Amex), browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari), and accounts (mine and my spouse's), each transaction was declined due to an "information mismatch" at the bank's end.

I confirmed with both banks that all entered information is correct, and they have no issues processing the transaction if submitted properly. They even ran test transactions using the exact information I provided, confirming that they would approve the transaction if submitted correctly. This suggests the issue lies with the repair store's payment processing.

Has anyone else faced similar issues? Is this program still functional for consumers? I reached out to their support and was told that I can pay for just the battery via PayPal, but I am not able to rent a toolkit via PayPal. And they refused to help me any further.

Is it me or them? I'm just trying to figure this out because I have no clue what to do next. I even tried a friend's credit card and that didn't go through either. I'm beginning to think that this is a fake program.

In the era of AI and vibe coding, marketing has become the most important and complicated thing. It takes much time, and it is super expensive to market.

I recently checked Google Ads for my project and was amazed at the price — nearly $15 for a click for a pretty much not-so-popular keyword.

Because of that, I found the idea of building a promotion platform to promote without a budget (or almost) a pretty good one.

What do I want?

Promo module to grow visibility and backlinks by submitting and posting your product to many directories, communities, profiles, review websites, etc.

Chrome extension to easily generate marketing materials in one click on any website, because doing it manually takes time. It should also be able to fill any forms on any websites.

Cold emails and lead management. I need a simple but powerful lead and cold email management tool to find the first 100 clients or more.

Social posting tool. I need to automate as much as possible posting to many different social platforms. Posting 3–4 times a day to 10 platforms is not easy.

Knowledge base. I need a place to store all information about my project to generate marketing materials in one click.

Also, I need gamification because for me, marketing is boring, so I want it to motivate me to do more marketing every day. And I want it to be cheap, with a lifetime deal, so I don't spend much money — because I don’t have a budget. Right?

Right now, I’ve completed 60% of the platform, and it is live already: https://hypedesk.io

What do you think about the idea?
