The score comes from our model.

• Show HN: OpenCode server and TUI in a browser tab (Chrome desktop) · score 8.3

  Browser Agent Toolkit runs the OpenCode coding agent server, a POSIX-like shell, and a dev server entirely inside a Chrome tab using a custom Rust/WASM kernel and shared memory, eliminating server-side sandbox costs. It enables in-browser code editing for web apps with live hot-reload, leveraging the real OpenCode agent rather than a reimplementation. The project is experimental but demonstrates a novel architecture combining a WASM kernel, immutable dependency images, and cross-origin isolation for secure agent execution.

• Show HN: Chrome Relay – background tabs in your real Chrome for coding agents · score 7.8

  Chrome Relay lets coding agents control your everyday Chrome browser through background tabs, using your real logins without interrupting your workflow. It combines a Go relay service, a Chrome extension, and optional 1Password integration to enable secure, audited browser automation for AI agents. The project stands out for its focus on safety (approvals, audit trails) and efficiency (one-command goals).

• Show HN: Browsentic Open-source Claude for Chrome alternative for any agent CLI · score 7.5

  Browsentic is an open-source Chrome extension and bridge that lets existing agent CLIs (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) control your real logged-in browser via a side panel or MCP server. It stands out by reusing your existing CLI subscriptions with no API keys or cloud dependency, and by offering 50+ deterministic tools, self-generated site skills, and scheduling.

• Show HN: Organize Tabs – Chrome extension that dedupes PRs, tickets and profiles · score 7.0

  Organize Tabs is a dependency-free Chrome extension that groups, sorts, deduplicates, and tidies browser tabs across windows, with smart URL normalization rules that treat different views of the same GitHub PR, Jira ticket, or LinkedIn profile as duplicates. It offers a rich set of actions (consolidate, split by domain, close stale tabs, free memory, park to bookmarks) accessible via popup, context menu, and keyboard shortcuts, plus sync/export/import of settings and custom remote rules.
