# HN Sieve — AI-Curated Show HN Projects

HN Sieve automatically discovers, analyzes, and scores every Show HN project on Hacker News using AI. Each project is evaluated across four dimensions — Innovation, Technical Quality, Documentation, and Utility — on a 0-10 scale, then categorized and made searchable.

## How it works

1. **Collect** — Polls the Hacker News API for new Show HN submissions every 2 minutes
2. **Fetch** — Retrieves project content from URLs, GitHub repos, landing pages
3. **Classify** — LLM-powered triage determines if the submission is a real project
4. **Score** — A second LLM evaluates across 4 dimensions and generates a summary
5. **Index** — Embeddings enable semantic search across all projects

## Features
