{"slug": "show-hn-makefaster-dev", "title": "Show HN: Makefaster.dev", "summary": "A developer launched Makefaster.dev, a free wrapper tool that applies common frontend speed improvements to GitHub repositories, after spending roughly $10,000 in API costs running autoresearch loops on the top 200 GitHub repos with frontends. The tool distills the most common wins into a leaderboard and ties into existing Claude, Cursor, or Codex subscriptions, requiring no separate payment, and optionally asks users to submit their score and thinking trace at the end.", "body_md": "I had a bunch of extra Fable credits, so I spent around $10k in api costs doing autoresearch loops on the top 200 github repos with frontends. The goal was to speed up the frontend / improve the lighthouse score.\n\nI distilled the wins down into a leaderboard of most common improvements, then built a wrapper that iterates through them. It ties into your claude/cursor/codex subscriptions, so there's no subscription or payment - it should \"just work\" as long as you have a sub to one of those.\n\nIt will ask you to submit your score / thinking trace at the end, but that's optional. Lemme know what you think / if it helps you out!\n\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49687032](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49687032)\n\nPoints: 2\n\n# Comments: 0", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-makefaster-dev", "canonical_source": "https://makefaster.dev", "published_at": "2026-09-13 18:24:29+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-09-13 18:51:39.788873+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "developer-tools", "ai-agents"], "entities": ["Makefaster.dev", "GitHub", "Claude", "Cursor", "Codex"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-makefaster-dev", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-makefaster-dev.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-makefaster-dev.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-makefaster-dev.jsonld"}}
