Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026)
Applications on the public cloud raise strong concerns about data protection. As an architect, I spend a meaningful part of my time ensuring the security of customers’ data in the cloud.
Bao introduces an innovative approach where data remains on local devices while the cloud provides encrypted storage for synchronization and peer exchange. Because cloud providers cannot access the data, the need for due diligence is reduced.
Any feedback is welcome.
The original Python icloudpd is looking for a new maintainer. I’ve been building a ground-up Rust replacement with parallel downloads, SQLite state tracking, and resumable transfers. 5x faster downloads in benchmarks, single binary, Docker and Homebrew ready.

It's gone a long way to solve the "review" bottleneck people have been experiencing (though admittedly it doesn't fix all of it), and I'm in the process of adding support for Mac and Windows (WSL for now, native some other time).
Some of the features I've had for a while, like multi-project agent worktrees, have been added as a part of the Codex App, so it's good to see that this practice is proliferating because it makes it so much easier to manage the clusterf** that is managing 20+ agents at once without it.
I'm feeling the itch to have this working on mobile as well so I might prioritize that, and I'm planning to have a meta-agent that can talk to Tenex over some kind of API via tool calls so you can say things like "In project 2, spawn 5 agents, 2 codex, 2 claude, 1 kimi, use 5.2 and 5.4 for codex, use Opus for the claudes, and once kimi is finished launch 10 review agents on its code".
(not vibe coding, so ask me anything about bloom filters).
https://talonwatch.com : I kept seeing founders discover their Stripe keys were public or their database was wide open, usually after the damage was done. Built a passive security scanner for vibe-coded apps so that's easier to catch early. Free surface scan, no account needed.
https://thetracejournal.com : A small iOS journal that pairs a song with each entry. Music is tied to memory in a way nothing else is, and I wanted a place to capture that.

It's highly customizable. You generate native macOS app wrappers for each terminal app, each with its own rules and customizations.
