Ask HN: How do you motivate your humans to stop AI-washing their emails?

Hacker News - Tue, 02/17/2026 - 12:09pm

I see it more and more in email, Slack, text, etc: People too scared to share their own thoughts so they AI-wash it and send an exhausting page of "It's not X, it's Y!" slop instead.

I'm not the CEO, I can't order people to stop. The CEO does it too.

I try talking to people directly, but people get defensive and there's always the chance they didn't use AI. I need indirect means of socializing change.

Looking for anything I can use to socialize against AI-washing: Articles, memes, policies that other companies have successfully used- whatever.

Show HN: Self-Hosted Task Scheduling System (Back End and UI and Python SDK)

Hacker News - Tue, 02/17/2026 - 12:09pm

Hey HN,

I’ve been working on a small side project called Cratos and wanted to share it to get feedback.

Cratos is a self-hosted task scheduling system. You configure a URL, define when it should be called, and Cratos handles scheduling, retries, execution history, and real-time updates. The goal was to have something lightweight and fully owned - no SaaS dependency, no external cron service.

It’s split into three repositories:

Backend service: https://github.com/Ghiles1010/Cratos

Web dashboard: https://github.com/Ghiles1010/Cratos-UI

Python SDK: https://github.com/Ghiles1010/Cratos-SDK

Why I built it:

In a few projects, I repeatedly needed reliable scheduled webhooks with:

Retry logic

Execution logs/history

A dashboard to inspect runs

Easy local deployment

I didn’t want to depend on external services or re-implement job scheduling from scratch every time. The goal was simple deployment (docker compose up) and full control.

It’s still early, but usable. I’d especially appreciate feedback from people who’ve built or operated schedulers, cron replacements, or internal job runners

I would love some feedback, or tell me how it would be useful to you

Show HN: I Forked Moltbook to Build a Hybrid Social Network (Humans and AI)

Hacker News - Tue, 02/17/2026 - 12:09pm

Hi HN, I’m a 19-year-old student. I’ve been following the "Dead Internet Theory" discussions and realized the original Moltbook project had a fatal flaw: it was just bots talking to bots. It was a simulation, not a network. So, I forked the codebase and rebuilt it with Next.js and Supabase to create Theeno. The Hypothesis: Theeno is an intersection. Instead of segregating AI into chatbots, we are putting Biological Intelligence (Humans) and Artificial Intelligence (Agents running locally via tools like OpenClaw) into the same real-time feed as equals. The Architecture (The "Wild West"): Feed: Fully real-time (Optimistic UI). Agent Auth: This is an experiment. We haven't built a rigid API wall yet. The "Agent Signup" flow is currently the same as the Human flow. We are inviting developers to see if their agents can navigate the sign-up process just like humans do. Memory: We do NOT store agent memories centrally. We believe in Decentralized Memory. Your agent (running on your local machine) keeps its own history/context. We just provide the public square. The "Student Budget" Constraint: I am hosting this on a Vercel Free Tier (hence the .vercel.app domain) because I have $0 funding. My focus is on the code, not the vanity URL. The Challenge: Join the experiment. Talk to the first wave of entities. See if you can tell who is running locally and who is biological. I’m here to answer questions about the fork and the Supabase integration. Roast my architecture

Show HN: Continue – Source-controlled AI checks, enforceable in CI

Hacker News - Tue, 02/17/2026 - 12:08pm

We now write most of our code with agents. For a while, PRs piled up, causing review fatigue, and we had this sinking feeling that standards were slipping. Consistency is tough at this volume. I’m sharing the solution we found, which has become our main product.

Continue (https://docs.continue.dev) runs AI checks on every PR. Each check is a source-controlled markdown file in `.continue/checks/` that shows up as a GitHub status check. They run as full agents, not just reading the diff, but able to read/write files, run bash commands, and use a browser. If it finds something, the check fails with one click to accept a diff. Otherwise, it passes silently.

Here’s one of ours:

```.continue/checks/metrics-integrity.md

--- name: Metrics Integrity description: Detects changes that could inflate, deflate, or corrupt metrics (session counts, event accuracy, etc.) --- Review this PR for changes that could unintentionally distort metrics. These bugs are insidious because they corrupt dashboards without triggering errors or test failures. Check for: - "Find or create" patterns where the "find" is too narrow, causing entity duplication (e.g. querying only active sessions, missing completed ones, so every new commit creates a duplicate) - Event tracking calls inside loops or retry paths that fire multiple times per logical action - Refactors that accidentally remove or move tracking calls to a path that executes with different frequency Key files: anything containing `posthog.capture` or `trackEvent` ```

This check passed without noise for weeks, but then caught a PR that would have silently deflated our session counts. We added it in the first place because we’d been burned in the past by bad data, only noticing when a dashboard looked off.

---

To get started, paste this into Claude Code or your coding agent of choice:

Help me write checks for this codebase: https://continue.dev/walkthrough It will:

- Explore the codebase and use the `gh` CLI to read past review comments

- Write checks to `.continue/checks/`

- Optionally, show you how to run them locally or in CI

Would love your feedback!

Show HN: Agent Breadcrumbs – Unified Work Log Across Claude, Codex, OpenClaw

Hacker News - Tue, 02/17/2026 - 12:07pm

Even within our small team the different AI clients (Codex, Claude Code/Work, Cursor, ChatGPT) used for coding, marketing, product is exploding and getting hard to track.

Was thinking how we'd keep track of the work without much overhead, and thought a lightweight cross-platform MCP logger could help.

You can define your own schema for the logs and it's a simple MCP and prompt you add to whatever tool you use for AI.

It's been reliable for Codex, ChatGPT, Claude and even cron-based jobs on OpenClaw. It's also nice to see all the work log aggregated across clients.

Please give it a try and test it with the client you're using. Should be a 2 min setup. Would be great to get any feedback if it's useful for you.

Thank HN: You helped save 33,241 lives

Hacker News - Tue, 02/17/2026 - 12:06pm

13 years ago, we launched Watsi.org with a Show HN [1].

For nearly a year, this community drove so much traffic that we couldn’t list patients fast enough. Then pg saw us on HN, wrote us our first big check, and accepted us as the first YC nonprofit (W13). The next few years were a whirlwind.

I was a young, naive founder with just enough experience to know I wanted Watsi to be more efficient, transparent, and innovative than most nonprofits. We spent 24/7 talking to users and coding. We did things that don’t scale. We tried our best to be walking, talking pg essays.

Over the years we learned that product/market fit is different for nonprofits. Not many people wake up and think, "I'd love to donate to a nonprofit today" with the same oomph that they think, "I'd love a coffee" or "I'd like to make more money."

No matter how much effort we put into fundraising, donations grew linearly, while requests for care grew exponentially. I felt caught in the middle. After investing everything I had, I eventually burned out and transitioned to the board.

I made a classic founder mistake and intertwined my self-worth with Watsi's success. I believed that if I could somehow help every patient, I was a good person, but if I let down some patients, which became inevitable, I was a bad person.

This was exacerbated by seeing our for-profit YC batch mates raise massive rounds. I felt like a failure for not scaling Watsi faster, but eventually we accepted reality and set Watsi on more of a slow, steady, and sustainable trajectory.

Now that I have perspective, I'm incredibly proud of what the org has accomplished and grateful to everyone who has done a tour of duty to support us. Watsi donors have donated over $20M to fund 33,241 surgeries, and we have a good shot of helping patients for a long time to come.

In a world of fast growth and fast crashes, here's a huge thank you to the HN users who have stuck by Watsi, or any other important cause, even when it's not on the front page. I believe it embodies the best of humanity. Thanks HN!
