Show HN: codex-web-local – web UI for local Codex App Server

kolpaque — Mon, 16 Feb 2026 06:10:50 +0000

codex-web-local is a lightweight web interface for the local Codex App Server (the backend used by Codex Desktop, Codex CLI)

The goal is simple: run Codex locally, access it from the browser, and optionally expose it externally via any tunnel. Remote access is password-protected so your local machine stays private.

Looking for feedback from others running local Codex setups

Show HN: A Chrome extension for passive responsive smoke testing

kolpaque — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 09:34:49 +0000

Most responsive edge cases don’t appear during testing. They show up during real usage, at slightly “wrong” viewport widths.

This Chrome extension randomly shifts the viewport width to realistic values while you use your site normally.

The goal is passive exposure, not active testing: you keep working, and edge cases surface on their own.

Repo (Chrome Web Store approval pending, local install for now):

Feedback welcome.

I need it to create Gamedev and 3D artists oriented tool for creating SDF-based shader visualizations (with 3dgs/nerf compilers)

Show HN: brew changelog – find upstream changelogs for Homebrew packages

kolpaque — Sun, 08 Feb 2026 08:19:10 +0000

I often wanted to see what changed in a Homebrew package — but changelogs are usually buried somewhere in the upstream repo.

So I made `brew changelog`. It parses the formula or cask, looks at the upstream repo, and tries to locate changelog-like files: CHANGELOG, NEWS, HISTORY, etc. Then it either prints the changelog to terminal or opens it in your browser.

brew tap pavel-voronin/changelog

brew changelog node -o

You can tweak behavior with options like --pattern, --print-url, or --allow-missing (try --help)

Feedback or contributions welcome!

Really cool! Felt like I had to think the way the AI might. Only took 5 minutes, but totally hooked me

SweepIQ is basically a Perplexity-style tool, but free — thanks to Amazon affiliate links — and with a stronger focus on topic exploration.

Nice touches: follow-up questions, structured themes, and an “explain like I’m five” option (would love a slider for that).

Rough edges with saving and sources, but overall a solid entry point for learning any topic.

Are there any plans to expand Beno's functionality beyond Reddit to other social media platforms?
