What Hacker News says

I added browser automation capabilities to sandvault [0], a MacOS sandbox, to allow AI agents to control Chrome browser from within the sandbox, which makes coding & testing websites from within the sandbox much easier. I'm using sandvault+Claude to rebuild my personal blog, Code of Honor [1], because I got tired of WordPress. The site includes search functionality, and articles are automatically syndicated to Mastadon, BlueSky, and Twitter. I wrote a Claude skill to automate testing of iOS apps [2], and it found issues in one of my released apps [3].
