Show HN: Declarative open-source framework for MCPs with search and execute
by samrith | 2026-02-24 21:01:28+00:00
Hi HN — I’m Samrith, creator of Hyperterse.

Today I’m launching Hyperterse 2.0, a schema-first framework for building MCP servers directly on top of your existing production databases.

If you're building AI agents in production, you’ve probably run into this:
- Agents need structured, reliable data
- But wiring your business logic to MCP tools is tedious
- Most teams end up writing fragile glue code
- Or worse — giving agents unsafe, overbroad access

There isn’t a clean, principled way to expose just the right data surface to agents.

Hyperterse lets you define a schema over your data and automatically exposes secure, typed MCP tools for AI agents.

Think of it as: Your business data → controlled, agent-ready interface

Key properties:
- Schema-first access layer
- Typed MCP tool generation
- Works with existing Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis
- Fine-grained exposure of queries
- Built for production agent workloads

v2.0 focuses heavily on MCP:
- First-class MCP server support
- Cleaner schema ergonomics
- Better type safety
- Faster tool surfaces
- Only two tools - search & execute - reducing token usage drastically

Hyperterse is useful if you are:
- Building AI agents/copilots
- Adding LLM features to existing SaaS
- Trying to safely expose internal data to agents
- Tired of bespoke MCP glue layers

I’d love feedback — especially from folks running agents in production.

I am not surprised. Considering only the main segment, i.e. Model 3 and Model Y, there has not been any major innovation by Tesla for years.

No significantly better battery technology. No significantly more powerful or efficient motors. No significantly improved comfort.

They have been making minor improvements in many areas, yes. For instance, they added ventilated seats, adaptive suspension, front camera, etc. But those are not new technologies that would make them stand out. The competition already had such features before.

Meanwhile, the Chinese cars have head-up displays, massage seats, vehicle to load, internal power outlets, fridges, dimmable glass roofs and what not.

One might argue that Tesla is improving their driving assist technologies and that is, in Tesla's view, supposed to be the deciding factor which would make them stand out. But I am not sure about that.

Their better driving assist (the so-called "FSD") has not been available in Europe for years. But that is almost besides the point.

The most important question is, in my opinion, the following: Who cares about those systems enough that they would be willing to pay $100 a month or $8k, $10k, $15k or even more one time for this kind of technology?

From what I have heard, the majority of drivers does not care. Not for this kind of money. No matter how good such a system might be.

Assuming that there will be a significant number of people who would be willing to pay thousands of dollars extra for a driving assist feature is, in my opinion, detached from reality.

> wouldn't you like to know why a model is being sycophantic? Or Sandbagging?

Actually, emphatically no. The only thing I care about is that I have recourse. It shouldn't matter the reason, in fact explainability can be an impediment to accountability. It's just another plausible barrier to a remedy that a bureaucracy can use deny changing a decision.

> And I don't think that a single company can destroy the European auto industry.

I’m still surprised auto hasn’t turned into a duo-tri-opoly.

Took a while but ~60% of eu cell phones are an Apple or Samsung.

If anything, the Chinese entrants are reversing some effects of automotive consolidation.

I guess marketing still convinces people that tons of vehicle choice is still necessary.

Tripling productivity? Where? You can say this but where is this measurement being sourced. Every time I ask how LLMs can simply replace a real front desk assistant I get responses like: well that use case isn't viable because <enter excuse here>.

> "People enjoy products and services." ???

WTF does that even mean? Folks are so deluded with all of these "right around the corner" solves that AI has in store that they fail to realize how out of whack the numbers game has played out. In any other reality people would be scrutinizing Sam Altman at every angle. But because of some magical AI sauce the incomprehensible numbers now magically make sense.

But for a lot of us: it doesn't. If you're going to claim hundreds of billions in revenue, just a few short years from now, you better have a really fucking great product today. Not in 6 months, not in a year - but right now.

SaaS has not been displaced. Workers have not been displaced (other than shifting their salaries to AI spend which does not equate to worker replacement). Where does madness end? The only thing that makes sense is an implosion that will ripple all the way through many other markets which will now take years to fix.
Show HN: MiniVim a Minimal Neovim Configuration
by kppjeuring | 2026-02-24 21:03:26+00:00
I built MiniVim, a small and minimal Neovim configuration focused on keeping things simple and readable.

The goal was to have a setup that:

starts fast

uses only essential plugins

avoids heavy frameworks

remains easy to understand and extend

The structure is intentionally small:

It’s not meant to compete with full Neovim distributions, but rather serve as a clean base configuration that can be extended gradually.

I use it across multiple machines (laptop, WSL, and servers), so reproducibility and simplicity were priorities.

Feedback is welcome.

We upgraded to 2.6.1 about a week ago and switched to using the new(ish) parallel(ish) garbage collector. I still can't tell what the impact has been.

Claude Code (which is a wizard at analyzing log files but also, I fear, an incorrigible curve-fitter) insisted that it was a real breakthrough and an excellent choice! On the other hand there was a major slowdown last night, ending in SBCL dying from heap exhaustion. I haven't had a chance to dig into that yet.

Hey, CEO and Co-Founder of heylogin here.

Feel free to try out heylogin and let me what you think of it. I know we don't have feature parity with 1pw, but we try to innovate on the core user experience of logging into websites first. Our typical users are non-IT people, but more and more features are now implemented to also cater IT pros.

Not stoked but it's the first since I've joined. Not an insane jump. Seeing Bitwarden go up had me wondering. It's still the best all rounder password manager I've used. Has everything and does it all really well. If Bitwarden could integrate their Reports feature into the app that might be a compelling reason to come back.

Do you have children? I frequently want to record things my daughter does but I find that my phone is not close at hand. I am curious if the latency to record is low-enough and I don't want to distract my daughter while she's doing whatever she's doing. I just want to capture the moment for later without interrupting the moment. They advertise it as this but I am curious what it's like in actuality.

The 9900 was exactly contemporary with the LSI-11 CPU. Both TI and DEC were taking advantage of new LSI gate-counts to move discrete TTL CPUs into one chip.

The 990 series of minicomputers were competing with PDP-11s (Though DEC had highest market share, I believe 33% of the whole mini market?)

The 9900 was condensed in 1975 and went into the low-end 990/4. The higher end 990/9 and 990/10 were always going to be discrete TTL as the 9900 didn't support memory protection or mapping to the 2MByte total address space.

TI was always conscious of not challenging IBM head-to-head in minicomputers. Internal memos always projected TI's plan for its minis to occupy a space well below the latest IBM mainframes. From 1980, the planned 990/12 would arrive just as IBM delivered more compute power in their low-end... this was intentional, supposedly because IBM was the chief driver of TI's transistor business!
Make coverage charts page mobile-friendly
by nishiohiroshi | 2026-02-24 21:04:41+00:00
The coverage charts page was unusable on mobile - stats stacked vertically, chart labels overlapping, horizontal scroll everywhere. Rewired the layout so org + time period sit side by side, stats stay in a row with shortened labels, and charts resize properly. Custom date range is desktop-only since there's no room for three inputs on a 390px screen.

Sure, people can do anything. As a person/citizen/voter I would probably vote against using tax dollars for open-source work. I'd prefer a less convoluted and more honest approach. Doing something for free and then complaining about not getting paid for it later is super cringe and passive aggressive regardless as to whether or not "greedy people" are using it.

Being an open-source maintainer is just some thing people decide they want to do. There's nothing special about it. If you want to get paid, figure out that arrangement for yourself. If you want to do it for free and give it away because you love it, that's great too. That's what free association is all about.

Taxing me to pay for other people to fund their hobby seems ripe for 2 bad things: 1. if the government is funding it, the government gets a say - doesn't bode well for open-source, and 2 it creates market inefficiencies in a bad way - we fund thing we shouldn't fund and we do so to support a lifestyle or hobby instead of what is truly economically valuable for all.

Your analogy is terrible because it doesn't do a proper accounting of "harm" and "risk."

Food and seatbelts, that's literal health and life-and-death; very immediate and visible.

"Cybersecurity" rarely is; and even when it is, the problem is that the centralized established authorities (like google) aren't at all provably good at this.

In the ex-USSR internet segment there was a saying on nerd forums - "Don't know matan(1), will convert you to methane". Just saying :) . It's not like billionaire sociopaths had ever any issues with "useless" humans. Peter Thiel even follows a modern neo-religion along those lines.

(1) matan - mathematical analysis, as a reference to a widely known and hard to learn university course.

My experience has been the opposite, they have become worse and worse since the early days when they were small Mac shop with a standalone app. It's really death by a thousand papercuts now. Sometimes it cannot fill a password, sometimes it loses the connection between the browser plugin and the native app and doesn't really fill anything at all anymore, the interface sucks compared to the native Mac version, etc.

The only reason I have not migrated away is that my wife and daughter also use it (1Password Family) and it seems like a huge task to properly migrate the hundreds of passwords, tens of passkeys, etc. Maybe this is the final straw.

In the case of some knowing or blindfully unknowing money mule in the chain or at the end of the chain, the intermediary or final banks may not be at fault. The bank could have followed KYC procedures in that somebody with that name actually existed who controlled the account.

The money mule themselves is almost certainly insolvent to pay the damages. Currencies can also change by the money mule (either to a different fiat currency or crypto), putting the ultimate link completely out of reach of the originating country.

If intermediary banks are deputized and become liable in a no-fault sense, then legitimate transfers out become very difficult. How does a bank prove a negative for where the funds come from? De-banking has already been a problem for a process-based AML regime.

> Most people suck at playing the piano. Most people suck at prompting coding agents. If you practice either of those things you'll get better at them.

It would be funny, if by now I weren't convinced you are pushing these false analogies on purpose. The key difference between a piano and LLMs being, the piano will produce the same sounds to a same sequence of keys. Every single time. A piano is deterministic. The LLMs are not, and you know it, which makes your constant comparison of deterministic with non-deterministic tools sound a bit dishonest. So please stop using these very weak analogies.

> I really don't understand the "stop telling me I'm holding it wrong" argument. You probably are holding it wrong!

Right, another weak argument. Writing English language paragraphs is not a science you seem to imply it is. You're not the only person using the LLMs intensively for the last years, and it's not like there this huge secret to using them - after all they use natural language as their primary interface. But that's besides the point. We're not discussing if they are hard or easy to use or whatever. We are discussing if I should replace the magnificent supercomputer already placed in my head by mother nature or God or Aliens or whatever you believe in, for a very shitty, downgraded version 0.0.1 of it sitting in someone's datacenter, all for the sake of sometimes cutting some corners by getting that quick awk/sed oneliner or some boilerplate code? I don't think that's a worthy tradeoff, especially when the relevant reports indicate an objective slowdown, which probably also explains the so-called LLM-fatigue.

> Is this born out of some weird belief that "AI" is meant to be science fiction technology that you don't ever need to learn how to use?

No, actually it is born out of the weird belief which your sponsors have been either explicitly or implicitly promoting, now for the 4th year, in various intensities and frequencies, that the LLM technology will be equal to a "country of PhDs in a datacenter". All of this based on the super weird transhumanist ideology a lot of the people directly or indirectly sponsoring your writing actively believe in. And whether you like it or not, even if you have never implied the same, you have been a useful helper by providing a more "rational" sounding voice, commenting on the supposed incremental improvements and progress and what not.

The i4 is a damn tank, even more so the iX. For the American market both probably are a good fit, but for the German market they're just too big, we're not that SUV-crazed like the American market is thanks to the "SUV loophole".

BMWs problem, that set them back quite a bit, was the i3. A solid car on the technical side, but its design was... yuck, and it was designed for a very very limited subset of people. Too small like my 1.58m wife? Even with the seat moved to the maximum forward, uncomfortable (to outright unsafe) to drive, too high like me with 1.87, again uncomfortable to drive but at least I can reach all pedals.

The have to share their wealth because they are allowed to operate within a stable legal framework that everybody else is paying for except them. It seems like US isn't using their own taxes efficiently enough given that CEOs dont get killed on the street in the EU but they do get killed in the US. And these corporations arent willing to pay for that, well then they should not be allowed to operate here either.

Not because they cannot do it, but because why they're doing it, which in turn becomes what they're doing. America is being perceived as isolationist, so countries solve that by becoming isolationist about what software they use, whether its open source or not is kind of irrelevant, though in several cases the software will primarily be focused on the countries own language.

The better alternative in my eyes is to contribute to existing open source, and only if the US becomes hostile against this, fork said code and move on.

The rules aren't written by plucky revolutionaries, but the big powers. They, thus, fairly often favor people who fight like the big powers.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/17/can-hospitals-...

> Article 8 of the Rome statute, which established the international criminal court (ICC) in The Hague, defines a long list of war crimes including “intentionally directing attacks against buildings dedicated to religion, education, art, science or charitable purposes, historic monuments, hospitals and places where the sick and wounded are collected”.

> But it makes an exception if the targets are “military objectives”. Philip-Gay said that “if a civilian hospital is used for acts harmful to the enemy, that is the legal term used”, the hospital can lose its protected status under international law and be considered a legitimate target. Nevertheless, if there is doubt as to whether a hospital is a military objective or being used for acts harmful to the enemy, the presumption, under international humanitarian law, is that it is not.

Again, I think Israel committed war crimes here and throughout Gaza. But the parent poster has a point that using a hospital for combat purposes risks its status.

(There are still rules to follow in that case, that weren't followed. Again, war crimes.)

> Truth: Mass-destroying a country's hospitals, murdering the doctors, nurses, workers & patients, mass-executing aid workers ... is Israeli. And only Israeli.

This is the same mistake many made about Nazi Germany; convincing themselves that the Germans were uniquely evil. It stops people from having to examine themselves.

Personally I've had issues with Windows Hello integration for a while. It worked for a while but then didn't anymore. Everything is right and best I could find was the team saying it's some weird issue with TPM. Once I put in my master password the Hello integration is fine. It's just storing the key in TPM that doesn't work. So every restart I need to put in the master password. Granted my desktop is a Ryzen 2 system but still.

Why Jailbreak the Kindle when you can just open its browser and visit a website that shows the arrival times?

The Kindle browser is surprisingly decent, I made Claude Code generate an RSS feed reader compatible with the Kindle browser, with the ability to read full articles (for those feeds that require you to visit the website), and download articles. It also supports Reddit and Google News RSS feed. This is my new favorite way of browsing the internet.

You can't currently "compile JS to Wasm", you can compile a JS engine (likely written in C++) to Wasm and run JS inside that (almost certainly at lower speed). So instead of "no more V8", it's closer to "ship V8 as part of the website, instead of part of the browser". Exposing DOM APIs to Wasm is a completely different question, though even those would actually have to be new APIs with a new API design that works for Wasm, since the existing DOM APIs are effectively defined in terms of JS objects being passed around.

OpenAI, frankly, benefits from the "nobody ever got fired for buying IBM" phenomenon.

And there's a reason that OpenRouter has an OpenAI compatible layer highlighted not deep in docs, but on their Quickstart page: https://openrouter.ai/docs/quickstart#using-the-openai-sdk

The number of projects accessing OpenAI directly, who might only reach for OpenRouter once an alternative is desired, is unknowable (since OpenAI doesn't share usage statistics), but likely meaningful.

Yeah I was concerned back when it first started rolling out. Years later the gaming community embraced like it was the second coming of Christ. Nobody looks at the people and organization supporting these platforms. If I remember correctly, wasnt funded by major conglomerates in the entertainment industry?

I guess thats changing though, I see Youtubers all over the place now watching these things like a hawk. Referring to the Highguard scandal.

It might not be the most substantive comment ever made. But by now it is about as classic as the Stephen Colbert quote ”reality has a well-known liberal bias”, and I bet you would not consider that quote hateful near-bannable offence, versus Republicans, right? It follows the exact pattern, and has a similar connotation. There is a large contingency in power in Israel and the west who loudly considers the truth to be antisemitism. Therefore we have a duty (BECAUSE ALL OTHER WAYS HAVE CLEARLY FAILED) as human beings to mock them. And what better way to mock them (like a court jester) than to use their words against them?

The number of tokens seen per model on OpenRouter is not a good measure of quality.

There are so many plausible explanations for why a particular model is or is not ranked in the top 10 by this metric.

Maybe people using OpenAI models are so happy that they don't care about other models and have no need for OpenRouter. Maybe OpenAI models produce fewer tokens, or are more expensive per token.

Your conclusion might be correct, but citing the number of tokens seen by OpenRouter is not very strong evidence.

"Like many things in the US, this should be settled by congress"

The US government is by design supposed to be as minimal as possible, and the laws affecting you kept as local as possible. We're not supposed to have a "the government" that's the same as EU governments. "The federal government should make laws" should be an absolute last resort. When you say "congress is abdicating its responsibility", I'd like you to point to where in the constitution it says that congress has such responsibilities.
