I'd love your feedback on how useful my approach could be to you.\nHere are the core features of my MVP, addressing typical concerns with tag-based/non-hierarchical approaches, like efficient discovery, the tedium of creating/managing tags, lock-in, and portability:\n- Query DSL:\nA simple but expressive query language is provided to search for files/folders, based on their tags stored in a local db. Tags can be bare or categorized, and the categories can be user-defined or system generated.\n- Dynamic Virtual Folders:\nGuided drill-down file browsing via query-backed dynamic virtual folders as a first-class feature. Research shows spatial browsing/exploration is just as critical to file discovery as direct search.\n- Heuristic auto-tagging & triage queue:\nTags are automatically generated on initial indexing using sophisticated heuristics based on file/folder metadata (path, name, os metadata, etc). Any existing or newly created files/folders that remain under-tagged go into a triage queue for quick manual bulk or individual tagging.\n- Managed, flat, sharded storage:\nOn import, files are moved, flattened and name-normalized with their tags, into a sharded internal store, with all subsequent access routed through the tool's interfaces. While this breaks from file managers that typically leave files in place, it enforces the workflow shift needed for non-hierarchical organization to work well. Tags can be exported back to standard folder structures at any time.\n- \"Project\" folders as atomic units:\nProject directories like code repositories are not flattened, and can be tagged and retrieved as single, atomic units (in addition to their contents), which avoids flooding listings with thousands of their nested files/folders.\nPortability & Privacy:\nAll files and project folders retain their exact contents. Since their tags are embedded in their names, and the original structure can be exported back if desired, there is no lock-in or loss of tags if the tool and its metadata db are uninstalled. Also, although file paths and metadata might be sent to a central API server to support features like the automatic tags and dynamic virtual folders generation, file contents stay strictly local.\nRoadmap\nAs mentioned, the initial MVP is a TUI which provides a rich interface for browsing, search, basic file operations, and import, plus a CLI for some basic administrative actions. Eventually, I plan to support:\n- A native GUI interface\n- Self-hosted and Cloud-hosted servers for web UI access\n- Bring-Your-Own-Cloud-Storage (e.g., S3 and/or Google Drive) to replicate the internal flat shared storage in the cloud, for backup and access from other devices\n- Import from IMAP, mobile devices, etc.\n- Versioning\nWhat are your thoughts? Do you think these approaches address the limitations of hierarchical file organization, as well as the friction involved with typical tag-based tools? Would you be comfortable with file metadata being processed or stored in the cloud? And, do you think this tool could provide you enough value to pay for it?"},{"id":50467233,"type":"story","title":"Claude Code's API billing depends on how often the cache expires","url":null,"hn_url":"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50467233","hackerhub_url":"https://hackerhub.site/stories/50467233","author":"MaxBozhenko","points":2,"comments_count":0,"created_at":"2026-11-12T14:02:38.000Z","average_comments_per_hour":0,"heat":0,"text":"Hello, HN! I’m Max, CTO at Hystax. We use Claude a lot in our development work, and we’re also trying to make coding agents cheaper to run. We built the open-source Kompressor for compressing identical tool outputs that agents constantly resend. In our Codex tests, we noticed a real cost reduction of 22.7%. But testing it with Claude Code, we found something completely different. In Claude Code, the cache plays a more crucial role than compression.\nClaude Code marks its messages with caching points. As a result, almost every request consists of a long cached prefix and a new, truncated final part. Based on practical experience with Opus 5.5, reading from the cache appears to cost $0.20 per million tokens, accounting for about 92–95% of the tokens charged for prompts. Meanwhile, a five-minute cache entry costs $5, which is 25 times more expensive than reading from the cache. When an agent needs to run a build or a longer training cycle, they face the problem of the cache expiring. The next request then has to write the prefix to the cache again. We saw this 33 times in a cycle of 89-task runs without compression. As a result, 927,000 tokens were rewritten, which is approximately one-third of the volume billed in full.\nUntil now, we’ve deliberately left the Claude Code text uncompressed because overwriting any byte within a cached prefix would very likely cause it to become invalid. But here’s what we came up with instead:\n– Compress only the uncached part. On the first transmission, only the new part is compressed. Everything already cached stays byte-for-byte unchanged. Fragments shorter than 4,000 characters are sent in full, since compressing each fragment would be much more expensive than sending the entire dialogue as is.\n– Keep the cache active while the tools are running; don’t let it expire.\nWhile the agent waits for a tool response (model building/training), Kompressor resends the last request every 4.5 minutes with max_tokens: 1, so Anthropic re-reads the cached dialogue, and the five-minute timer restarts. Pings stop on the agent’s next request, after ~50 min, on the first failed attempt, or if a ping finds nothing in the cache.\n– Switch to the one-hour cache only when necessary. \nAfter the first pause longer than 5 min, Kompressor requests a one-hour cache for that conversation.\nWe ran Claude Code on the Opus 5.5 model through the Terminal-Bench 2.1 benchmark (89 tasks) and calculated the cost based on Anthropic's actual billing, including pings. The cost per run decreased from $35.35 to $28.30 (-20%). The percentage of tasks solved by the agent without compression was 89.9%, and 90.6% when using Kompressor. The number of tokens lost due to cache expiration decreased from 927,000 to 13,000.\nBut there’s a caveat: the agent never solves the same task twice in exactly the same way, and the entire difference came down to just 4 out of the 89 tasks. We expect these savings to persist from run to run: about 11% from keeping the cache up to date, and a few more percentage points from compression. This effect is most noticeable on tasks where the agent waits a long time – more than five minutes – for a command to execute: model training, compilation, and long simulations. In those cases, costs decreased by 34%.\nTo try Kompressor, see the GitHub repo below. Setup is in the README. The default configuration already includes compression of new text only and a switch to an hourly cache on long pauses; “keep-warm” is off (the only request that the proxy sends on its own). To enable, add to your config:\n\n [proxy.providers.anthropic] \n cache_keep_warm = true\n\nand then run:\n\n kompressor wrap claude \n\nThe benchmark above was run with all these settings enabled.\nHere are cost calculations: https://optscale.ai/blog/claude-code-prompt-caching \nIf you run long tasks in Claude Code, how often does the cache expire while a tool is still running? Have you seen this with other providers too?"},{"id":50470767,"type":"story","title":"Ask HN: What is your current AI stack looking like?","url":null,"hn_url":"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50470767","hackerhub_url":"https://hackerhub.site/stories/50470767","author":"salleisha","points":2,"comments_count":2,"created_at":"2026-11-12T17:19:54.000Z","average_comments_per_hour":1.5970436946988895,"heat":5,"text":""},{"id":50466520,"type":"story","title":"Ask HN: What is holding back robots from being deployed everywhere?","url":null,"hn_url":"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50466520","hackerhub_url":"https://hackerhub.site/stories/50466520","author":"mjs06","points":5,"comments_count":14,"created_at":"2026-11-12T13:02:46.000Z","average_comments_per_hour":2.5280480409480015,"heat":6,"text":"Is it data or the mechanics?"},{"id":50417407,"type":"story","title":"Ask HN: What are you working on?

I am going to pause Opus 5.5 use. I find it really scummy business practice. We trust them that what is behind the string \"opus-5-5\" is consistent and what we signed up for. Of course behind the scenes they can do whatever they like and serve whatever model they like under that string. It is a scummy and deceptive business practice though."},{"id":50435929,"type":"story","title":"CoderPad Reports a Security Breach","url":null,"hn_url":"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50435929","hackerhub_url":"https://hackerhub.site/stories/50435929","author":"werrett","points":9,"comments_count":1,"created_at":"2026-11-10T04:05:15.000Z","average_comments_per_hour":0.01600090102852112,"heat":1,"text":"Not yet detailed on their website or Trust center yet, but we received the following breach notification from CoderPad:\n> We are writing to inform you of unauthorized access to personal information held by CoderPad.\n> \n> *What happened*\n> \n> We identified unauthorized access through an internal reporting system.
