Show HN: Lodestar – Read, respond and manage coding agents more naturally
I was frustrated by having 10 terminal windows open, and I checked a few solutions on how to make this better. They are all nice, but then I realized what I really wanted was something that feels a bit deeper and more intelligent than a "dashboard" of all your agents.
For example, I routinely have 3+ agents exploring different frontiers of the same idea. How do I keep them inline? What if I see 3 more promising directions from one of them? How do I tie up all the loose ends? If I see one agent got a brilliant observation, how do I easily spread that to other agents?
So I started exploring many ways to connect agents together. That led me to realize that the actual fundamental things are not the agents, but the substance. Understandings, decisions, insights, etc. Can I quickly understand what's said? Can I quickly react to it? Can I quickly find it two days later? Can I quickly share to other agents? When ideas and insights are scattered across agents, can I organize those? Can I easily share with the next new agent?
I tried to make optimizations through those angles. Though still far away from my vision, there is enough value that I think it's interesting to share. A few concrete features:
- Agents proactively leverage graphs and annotations to explain ideas
- You can comment inline on text, docs, html files. React to things right where they are
- You can find messages or docs from days, weeks ago by describing what you remembered instead of using exact keywords. Agents can too.
- You can organize topics and sessions in hierarchical or graphical structure (automatically). Or ask an agent to do it if you want it in some particular flavor. In those session maps, everything remains clickable and interactive, with real time status too. So you can have an agent to start 10 sessions in the morning, draw their dependencies and relationships, and watch each agent work through their task until everything in the whole map is finished. Add, remove, tweak, or reorganize the tasks as you wish.
Anyway, that's a lot of words... I don't expect you to read all that. If you find it interesting enough, give it a try!

Show HN: Open-source revenue recognition and analytics for Stripe and Metronome
Hi HN,
I’m Tanin. For about four years, I worked on the Revenue Recognition and Analytics teams at Stripe. Today, I'm open-sourcing Book of Revenue, a self-hosted revenue engine and drop-in alternative to Stripe Revenue Recognition (with optional support for Metronome).
### The Problem:
Most founders track MRR or cash collected in Stripe and assume that reflects revenue. But cash collected isn't revenue, and MRR isn't an accounting metric. Once you hit scale, raise institutional capital, or prep for an audit, ASC 606 / IFRS 15 rules kick in:
- Annual upfront subscriptions must be amortized monthly as deferred revenue.
- Mid-cycle upgrades, prorations, usage overages, refunds, and disputes quickly turn into messy manual spreadsheets.
- Finance and engineering end up arguing because Stripe dashboard numbers never match QuickBooks or NetSuite during month-end close.
### What Book of Revenue Does:
- Automated Revenue Recognition: Computes GAAP/IFRS-compliant revenue schedules from your Stripe billing and payment events out of the box.
- Unified Financial Truth: Aligns founder analytics with your accountant’s ledger so both sides look at the exact same numbers.
- Full Data Ownership: Self-hosted with no vendor lock-in. You retain complete custody of your customer financial records and intermediate data models.
### Looking for Early Users:
I’m looking for early design partners—particularly companies processing over $100k in annual volume who dread month-end reconciliations.
I'm offering free hands-on deployment and a complimentary audit of your current Stripe/Metronome billing architecture. If you’d like to test it out, drop a comment below or email me directly at tanin@bookofrevenue.com.

Ask HN: So is AI taking our jobs?
I'm a software developer with about 12 YEO, so far I haven't had a problem finding work and for the foreseeable future I don't see Claude taking my job just yet, but every month AI models get better, so I fear this profession will disappear in 5 or 10 years from now, 5 years ago when Copilot was just a fancy autocomplete tool I couldn't even dream of how capable LLMs could get. Thus, I'm not sure if I should start planning my exit plan and become a farmer or something before it's too late.
So, what do you think? Are you preparing for the post-developer world, or do you think this is just a bump in the road?

Show HN: SIM Screener adds device frames to screenshots and recordings
Hey HN, I'm Igor. I built Sim Screener because Xcode 27's new Device Hub made taking a nice simulator screenshot impossible.
Before Device Hub, you could screenshot the Simulator window and crop off the controls at the top.
Now there's a background around the device that ends up in your screenshot. Device Hub's capture button gives you a clean image, but without the device frame.
Solution:
Sim Screener watches your capture folder and automatically adds the matching iPhone or iPad frame. You get a screenshot with a transparent background, ready to copy, save, or drag into another app. It also frames recordings and supports transparent video exports.
There are websites where you can upload screenshots and add frames manually. I wanted this to happen locally, as I work, without visiting a website every time I need to share a screenshot.
One time purchase only, runs on Mac only.
