The score comes from our model.

• Show HN: Stop Claude Code from compacting mid-task · score 7.3

  catnap is a Claude Code plugin that prevents mid-task context compaction by prompting Claude to finish its current piece, write a handoff note, and compact at a clean break. It replaces Claude Code's summary with Claude's own handoff, cutting compaction time from ~20 seconds to under a second. The project includes benchmark evidence and a self-check tool for users to estimate benefits.

• Show HN: Fennec – stop crackling on your Mac (OSS) · score 7.3

  Fennec is a macOS menu-bar app that automatically detects and repairs Core Audio crackling by monitoring audio overload signals and restarting coreaudiod through a tightly scoped privileged helper. It stands out for its nuanced fault detection, safety checks, and verification of repairs, packaged in a well-documented, security-conscious design.

• Show HN: Stop malicious packages before NPM/pip install – open-source gateway · score 7.0

  DepGate is an open-source dependency gateway that proxies package manager requests to public registries and enforces security policies (malware blocking, CVE/license/age rules) before packages are downloaded. It supports eight ecosystems with a unified policy engine, decision ledger, and SSO, addressing a real supply-chain security gap. The project is well-documented with a demo and screenshots.

• Show HN: Nimblegate – stop Claude Code and Codex pushing leaked API keys · score 7.0

  Nimblegate is a self-hosted Git push gateway that sits between AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex) and your real Git host, intercepting pushes to enforce safety rules like leaked keys, force-pushes, and skipped tests. It provides over 50 configurable rules grouped into kits, with a dashboard, auto-PR feedback, and MCP integration for agents. The project addresses a real emerging gap as AI agents become more autonomous in development workflows.
