Overview

Hello HN,

I was away from my computer for two weeks, and after coming back and reading the latest discussions on HN about coding assistants (models, harnesses), I felt very out of the loop. My normal process would have been to keep reading and figure out the latest and greatest from people’s comments, but I wanted to try and automate this process.

Basically the goal is to get a quick overview of which coding models are popular on HN. A next iteration could also scan for harnesses that people use, or info on self‑hosting or hardware setups.

I wrote a short intro on the page about the pipeline that collects and analyzes the data; feel free to ask for more details or check the Google Sheet for more info.
