Show HN: Mojibake – a low-level Unicode library written in C
I've written Mojibake because I don't like the other Unicode libraries for Unicode support.
It consists of only two amalgamation files: mojibake.h and mojibake.c. I've added all the most important Unicode algorithms, such as normalization, case conversion, segmentation, bidirectional text, collation, confusable, and others.
I regularly test it in these OSes: Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and Windows 11.
You can find a WASM demo on that site of all the public API functions and the documentation. If you want to participate, feel free to do it. Any kind of help is welcome. Check the CONTRIBUTING.md and API.md files in the GitHub repository for instructions on how to do it.

Show HN: Policy enforcement for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex
Show HN: Runtime authorization for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex
Hi HN, Fernando and I built Kastra. Kastra intercepts AI agent tool calls and evaluates them against deterministic policies before they execute. This is aimed at developers using coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenClaw.
We built Kastra after one of our Cursor agents almost executed DELETE FROM customers WHERE status='test' against a production database. We caught it before it ran, but it made us realize that nothing in our stack actually decided what the agent was allowed to do. What mattered for us wasn't the mistake; it was realizing nothing in our setup would have stopped it if we weren't actively on top of it. LLMs are probabilistic, and prompts influence behavior, but they don't deterministically decide what an agent is allowed to do. Without a deterministic policy system, nothing could have decided what it was allowed to do.
Kastra pushes an allow, hold, and deny decision before the action runs. You can build these policies in plain English from the web app. The interception engine evaluates the tools, targets, and parameters of every action. We also shipped many policy packs covering common high-risk scenarios, and every decision is recorded in an immutable audit trail. The desktop app, CLI, dashboard, and Recon scan are free to use for developers.
If you often use Claude, Codex, Openclaw, and Cursor, Kastra can run a scan command on which risky actions your agents have already taken and automatically build rules to avoid them from happening again. Recon is a feature of Kastra that scans your local agent history. In order to run this scan, execute the commands below in your coding agent.
brew install kastra-labs/tap/kastra-edge
kastra-edge scan
The scan reads your local agent session history, and it shows all the risky actions your agent has already taken before, the secrets written to tracked files, production databases touched, force pushes, curl-to-shell, and more. This runs on your machine, and secrets never leave. In our own use cases, we kept finding things we'd forgotten or didnt know agents had done.
Each finding can be converted into a runtime policy, letting you delegate more work to AI without trusting the model itself. Kastra intercepts all workloads at runtime and makes sure these policy evaluations typically complete in under a millisecond. Instead of trusting the model, you trust the deterministic rules that govern its actions.
One problem we are still working on to improve the stack is how to manage teams of agents with conflicting policies. We would love feedback from anyone building multi-agent systems. Fernando and I will be reviewing the comments. We are super curious what your first scan finds. Please post results below so we can see what the most common patterns are and adjust policy packs for our users based on your feedback.

Show HN: Rowboat – Open-source, local-first alternative to Claude Desktop
Claude’s desktop app is brilliant, but for our own daily work we kept wanting it to be less like a chat app and more like a full-fledged work app. Rowboat is our attempt at that, including the ability to build your own work surfaces inside Rowboat (more below).
Our repo is [https://github.com/rowboatlabs/rowboat][1], and there’s a demo video here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=et5yQABJ3xI][2]
In a previous startup, we built a deep-learning product for enterprise support reps, including teams supporting P&G brands. Models took live notes, suggested replies, and recommended actions while support reps were on calls or handling emails. One lesson stuck with us: it's not enough for the AI to be right, the help has to show up where the work is happening.
So we added what we came to call “work surfaces”: dedicated areas for email, meetings, notes, browser, and parallel coding, where the assistant can help inside the workflow itself rather than only through chat:
- Email client: Rowboat has a simple email client that sorts incoming emails into important vs. everything else, and pre-creates drafts for important emails. As you edit and send emails, it takes notes on your style, so future drafts get closer to your voice.
- Meeting notes: We built a Granola-style local meeting notetaker. Notes are stored as plain Markdown files on your machine. After a meeting, Rowboat feeds the notes back into the knowledge graph and updates the relevant people, project, and topic notes.
- Browser: We added a built-in browser, isolated from your main one, where you can log in only to the accounts you want the assistant to help with. The assistant uses browser-use skills to navigate websites.
- Parallel coding: The code-mode inside Rowboat lets you spin multiple instances of Claude Code or Codex and either work with them directly or let Rowboat use your work context to orchestrate them. We built an ACP (Agent Client Protocol) client in Rowboat for this.
- Notes: Rowboat has an Obsidian-style local note-taking system. It comes with graph view, bases view, and voice notes. You can also sync Google Docs files and edit them inside Rowboat.
You can also build your own work surfaces inside Rowboat (web apps). Each app gets its own UI and a background agent, and can use all of Rowboat's tools, product integrations, and your work memory. For instance: an app to manage GitHub activity, project tracking, or ads campaign management. There are a few community apps at launch you can search and install, and you can publish your own by creating a GitHub repo for it and registering it.
Rowboat also indexes your work into a knowledge graph that all of the above surfaces use to have better context. We did a Show HN a few months back on this: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46962641][3].
As an example that ties some of these together: you can create an app inside Rowboat that collects feature requests from your email, meetings, and Slack and ranks them, then uses Claude Code to draft a first version of the top-ranked feature, pulling prior context about it from your knowledge graph.
Rowboat is local-first: data is stored as plain Markdown files you can read, edit, or delete anytime. It is Apache-2.0 and works with any LLM, including local models through Ollama or LM Studio.
We’d love to hear your thoughts, and contributions are welcome!

Show HN: KiCad in the Browser
KiCad, a PCB EDA suite is now working in a browser, you can try it at the link, there's a demo project or you can bring your own. Firefox is best, Chrome is good, Safari is "working".
We’re Emergence Engineering, a dev shop from Hungary, mostly working with rich text editors, CRDTs. PCBJam started as my (Viktor, CTO, ex-electrical engineer) hobby project but as time went on I put more and more energy into it, and a product started shaping up in my head, in the last few months we’ve started to focus on this project a bit more, and this is the first MVP~ish result.
This project is a ton of fun, ton of learning, ton of improvements over improvements:
- I thought there must be ways to emulate the PCB canvas OpenGL code on the web. And yes, there are a lot of ways, all of them very buggy. Turns out it’s faster to just write WebGL code that works with KiCad’s Graphics Abstraction Layer if you add the right intermediate debugging steps. I (with Claude) implemented the features and compared them to native at every step, then the app loaded up the first time and just worked. I spent weeks hunting weird emulation bugs before that.
- There was an old wxWidgets web port as a starting point that helped a lot, bringing it up to the level KiCad needed is a long (and still ongoing) task. Thanks ahilss!
- Pthreads on the web: with Emscripten it’s possible to port multithreaded apps (used by DRC, software 3D renderer). A lot of Emscripten features (Asyncify, Pthreads, native exceptions) are in a war with each other, but it’s possible.
- Asyncify with native exceptions: Asyncify (used to make the WASM code suspend then call into the JS land, emulating blocking C++ calls by rewriting the WASM directly) is not compatible with native exceptions, even on the latest Binaryen version it can’t suspend inside catch arms. If you write a new Binaryen pass then it can, making the bundle 30-40% smaller and the app load in a second instead of 10.
- Optimizing bundle size is a fun game. We just moved Open CASCADE into a separate lazy-loaded WASM module, moving from 180 to 130 MB (24 MB brotli), still on -O1. -O2 / -Oz etc will be more work than it looks.
And a ton more problems like these above on a daily basis.
A few months ago I had a barely loading laggy pcbnew that crashed when you looked at it wrong, now we have the whole application working. I should say with quite a few bugs still, but now it feels pretty close to native.
There’s a lot of built up knowledge / code that we want to release as blogposts, mainline our changes to Binaryen / KiCad / wxWidgets, but I want to focus on the release first. Our wxWidgets port is quite close to the core, the KiCad is ~150 changed core files (mostly build scripts, some code changes too). The goal is to keep as close to the mainline as possible, and merge eventually.
We’ll have a free tier for sure and something around $30/mo for bigger/closed projects, optional paid AI integration / self hosting / enterprise features / native & mobile version down the line.
The goal is to build a product on top of KiCad (collaboration, AI integration, sharing, integrations), kind of like what Red Hat did with Linux back then. We’re heads down making it functional and have the first version up in a ~month or so.
And of course we’re standing on the shoulders of the people who made KiCad & wxWidgets and we want to give back and contribute as much as possible, if you have an idea on how to do that best let me know, I released a few moderately successful open source projects, but I’ve never been a contributor. All of the front-end code is GPL (it has to be) and you can run this project if you want.
