Run open source business apps on your own Cloudflare

WHAT IT IS

EveryApp wants to build an open source version of every tool a business rents. It sets up a secure gateway in your own Cloudflare account, and your team signs in once to use every app behind it. OpenSEO, its first open source app, does keyword research, rank tracking and site audits.

Worth knowing

OpenSEO is the proof: 25,694 stars for the first app, against 466 for the EveryApp platform. The platform calls itself early, needs a $5 a month Cloudflare plan plus a domain, and runs only on Cloudflare for now.

Highlights
  • OpenSEO came first

    Its first open source app covers keyword research, rank tracking, backlinks and site audits, as a pay-as-you-go option to Semrush and Ahrefs.

  • No app holds your keys

    Every request passes through a gateway. Apps have no public address, and the gateway makes outside calls so no app stores your service passwords.

  • $5 a month for hundreds of apps

    The project says Cloudflare's Workers Paid plan hosts hundreds of apps and an app nobody uses costs $0. Setup takes about 15 minutes.

Nine agent skills that ship a code change while you're away

WHAT IT IS

Theo Browne published the skills he says he uses every day in Claude Code and Codex. Say a phrase and your agent follows a written playbook for finishing a code change. One skill asks three AI models from different companies to review the work and repeats until they agree.

Worth knowing

"full send" has permission to merge on its own, so start with "full stop". The project is days old with no releases, and users have already reported a review loop that can hang.

Highlights
  • full send and full stop

    Both take a change through proof, review, filing and checks. "full send" merges it with nobody watching; "full stop" leaves the merge to you.

  • council

    Gets review from three models at different providers and loops until they agree. It needs a tool that can reach those other models.

  • takeover

    Finishes someone else's pull request (a proposed code change), branch or agent thread, and keeps their credit.

GitHub PR · t3dotgg/tstack #1
The first pull request tries to fire Gemini from the council

The first pull request on tstack proposes removing Gemini, saying it "kept hallucinating in council reviews" and that the council was "handing out scores based on files and flags that don't exist." It collects Theo's own complaints, including "Gemini is a straight up liability in your stack." The pull request is still open, and the council skill still names Gemini Pro as its example.

BONUS · 3 OF 3 · joshuaswarren/omarchy-apple-dev

Build iPhone apps on Linux with no Mac

WHAT IT IS

Apple's tools normally tie iPhone development to a Mac. This project sets up a Linux computer to build SwiftUI and Flutter apps (two common ways to write them), install them on a real iPhone and upload them to Apple. You still download Xcode once from Apple, on any computer, unless you try the experimental no-Xcode mode.

Linux-built apps, including NetNewsWire, came back valid in Apple's App Store Connect, though the tool never submits one for review. One write-up says Apple's Xcode license limits its tools to Apple hardware, so check that before you ship.

Highlights
  • A free Apple ID to start

    A free Apple ID covers installs on your own iPhone. A paid developer account adds TestFlight and the App Store.

  • Cable-free on iOS 27

    Pair once over USB, and a computer on your Tailscale private network can install, launch and read logs without a cable.

  • Tested on real apps

    NetNewsWire, IceCubesApp and Mastodon for iOS build on Linux and came back valid in App Store Connect.

  • Six phases, start to finish

    It maps your app, hunts for holes area by area, tests each lead, then writes a report from the findings that held up.

  • A second agent tries to disprove each bug

    Each candidate goes to a fresh verifier. Results land in three piles: confirmed, needs validation, and rejected.

  • One run is not enough

    In Cloudflare's own tests, a single run found roughly half of what repeated runs found. Later runs build on earlier ones.

Claude SEO vs OpenSEO

The big difference: where the data comes from

OpenSEOevery-app/open-seo ↗
  • Runs on DataForSEO. You need a DataForSEO API key to get any SEO data.
  • You pay DataForSEO per request, or use the hosted version, which adds 28% to each request.
  • A web app plus an MCP server: keyword research, rank tracking, competitors, backlinks, site audits.
Claude SEOAgriciDaniel/claude-seo ↗
  • Crawls your site itself with a local Python setup and a headless Chromium browser.
  • Free Google APIs, optional: PageSpeed Insights, Chrome UX Report, Search Console, GA4.
  • Public sources: Wikipedia, Reddit, YouTube and LinkedIn for AI search, Common Crawl for backlinks (Moz and Bing with your own keys).
  • Paid add-ons, optional: DataForSEO, Ahrefs, SE Ranking, Profound, Firecrawl.
Highlights
  • What a consultant would check

    Technical SEO, content quality, structured data, plus local and e-commerce pages. Each fix says how you will know it worked.

  • Checks how AI search sees you

    It scores how easy your pages are to quote and whether AI crawlers can reach them, with ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini in mind.

  • Runs on your own machine

    The core audit needs no API keys (access codes for outside services). Paid data tools like DataForSEO and Ahrefs are optional add-ons.

How Jesse Vincent gets agents to follow the rules

Superpowers uses Robert Cialdini’s persuasion research on AI agents

Jesse Vincent, who made Superpowers, applied the principles he learned from Cialdini’s book Influence to his skills. A Wharton study co-written by Dan Shapiro and Cialdini then tested them on GPT-4o mini: across 28,000 conversations, persuasion more than doubled compliance, from 33% to 72%.

  • Authority

    Rules are orders, not tips: “YOU MUST,” “No exceptions.” If a skill applies, “YOU DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE.”

  • Commitment

    The agent must announce the skill it is using, pick A, B or C, and turn every checklist into todos.

  • Scarcity

    Steps are tied to the moment: “IMMEDIATELY request code review before proceeding.”

  • Social proof

    Norms stated as facts: “Checklists without todo tracking = steps get skipped. Every time.”

  • Red flags

    It lists the excuses agents make, like “I know what that means,” and answers each one.

  • Pressure tests

    Skills are tested on agents under fake pressure, like production down at $5k a minute, and made stronger after every failure.

Highlights
  • Questions before code

    Its brainstorming step draws out what you want. Small changes get agreed in chat, and bigger projects get a written design.

  • A fresh helper for each task

    It can hand every planned task to a new sub-agent with a review after each, or run the plan in one session to spend less.

  • Works beyond Claude Code

    The project lists setup steps for Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot CLI, Grok Build CLI and more, each installed separately.

GitHub Issue · obra/superpowers #2530
v7's brainstorm questions are rather annoying

After version 7.0.0, long-time users said the rebuilt brainstorming asked pointless questions the code already answered, and one wrote that it left them irrationally angry. Replies signed as Claude working with Jesse Vincent acknowledged the problem, and v7.0.1 shipped a retune. Some users still prefer 6.4.2, one published a fork restoring the old skill, and a further rewrite is open as pull request #2644.

A Claude Code mod (command /glanceflow) that replaces the stream of tool calls with one checklist above the prompt: the plan in plain English, live progress per step, and a clear “Needs you” when Claude is waiting on you. One button flips to Details with the code plus time, models and tokens per step, and it writes a plain-English team report. MIT licensed.

Andreas, co-founder and CTO of SigniVoice, watches the weekly GitHub roundup and built GlanceFlow for the non-engineers on his team, who had started using Claude Code and found it overwhelming.

Turn a book you own into one text file for AI.

WHAT IT IS

A small Windows app: point it at an e-book window (he tested the Kindle app) and it turns the page, takes a screenshot, and repeats to the end, then uses Windows’ built-in OCR to rebuild the text as a single file you can hand to an AI, or a PDF of the pages. It breaks no copy protection, so it is for books you own. Free and open source.

Christopher, author of the novel Dealing with Murder, heard Andrew say on the show that he was not sure how people give a whole book to an AI to follow, so he built Book Snapper as a proof of concept.

Approve what your agents ask for from Slack.

WHAT IT IS

Sends Paperclip agent requests, hiring another agent, spending budget, or a question that needs answering, to Slack or Telegram, where you tap Approve or fill in a short form and Paperclip records the decision under your own account. There is deliberately no AI in the bot, so nothing an agent writes can talk it into approving something. One Python file, MIT licensed.

Christopher’s team at sthreelabs runs a small team of agents on Paperclip, from the Sep 25 episode, and kept wanting to answer agent requests without opening the dashboard, especially when he is remote and would otherwise set up a tunnel or wait until he is back at the office.

Run a 14B model on a laptop with 8 GB of RAM.

WHAT IT IS

An open benchmark and inference engine for big AI models on ordinary computers: instead of loading the whole model into memory, where normal runtimes crash or freeze, the weights stay on a fast NVMe drive and Kura streams the next layer in while the processor works on the current one. One-command install, with a terminal interface and an OpenAI-compatible API server.

A scraper that repairs itself when a site changes.

WHAT IT IS

James’s second repo, written in Rust: fast web scraping that is built to be hard to detect and to fix itself when a page it depends on moves. Early days, with a site at netweir.com.

FROM THE AUDIENCE

A family office that runs inside your coding agent.

WHAT IT IS

A self-hosted “family office” for Claude Code or Codex: one command gives a full risk profile for any ticker (value at risk, Sharpe, drawdown, beta) from a fresh clone, your data stays in a private SQLite ledger on your own machine, and guardrails block a risky action when its inputs are missing instead of guessing.

Ossie watches every Top 10 episode and built it on one rule: agents propose, typed code computes, so every number an agent quotes comes out of a tested Python calculator you can run yourself.

A security review that runs with the network off.

WHAT IT IS

A free, local-first security review tool: it scans code on your own machine with networking off by default, flags exposed credentials, unsafe execution patterns and risky configuration, can block unsafe commits, and shows evidence of what it checked. AI review is optional. Still early, at v0.1.0.
