Show HN: Use all Codex Plugins inside Pi
I just realized that codex now exposes local server endpoints for all plugins without extra auth. So you can just use them from any model or harness.
Im soooo excited!!! One auth for everything!
For Pi: pi install npm:@wileai/pi-codex-connector
For any harness: npx -y @wileai/codex-connectors-mcp@latest

Show HN: Grist, open source coding harness
I built a coding harness on top of the new Opencode v2, it started with the the idea of using the new jev model for routing easy tasks to cheaper models such as deepseek and hard tasks to models such as Opus 5.5. In total in separated it into 4 rungs - easy, medium, hard and frontier.
Two more layers compound the savings: the Sol-Pi methodology based on the recently published paper which uses action fusion and observation packing and cuts roken usage within every tier. Doctrine injection loads your engineering standards into every session by default, so the agent writes code the way your team would.
There is also a real control plane - escalation, permission and verification hooks so the agent surfaces uncertainty instead of being confidently wrong in silence.
Run it using your own key from Openrouter or Vercel AI gateway key, we need this since one key is able to call the jev decision model as well as the llms for coding.
One more thing I added was the ability to connect your Meta Muse to use this for coding tasks which has worked really well so far you can try it out by copying the promp for agent on the website.
Two ways you can use it today is the Mac app and the cli.
Honest limitations are documented, happy to take any questions.

Show HN: Pyxel – A Python retro game engine with built-in art and sound editors
Hi HN, I'm the creator of Pyxel, a free, MIT-licensed retro game engine for Python. I've been developing it since 2018, and it recently passed 18,000 stars on GitHub.
Pyxel includes pixel art, tilemap, sound, and music editors, so you can create a game's visuals and audio as well as write its code in Python. The engine itself is implemented in Rust.
Games run on Windows, macOS, Linux, and the web, as well as supported Linux-based retro handhelds.
You can share a URL to launch a Pyxel game hosted on GitHub directly in a browser. You can also create games entirely in your browser with Pyxel Code Maker, or write chiptunes in Pyxel MML Studio.
See what people have made with Pyxel: https://kitao.github.io/pyxel-user-examples/
Try Code Maker: https://kitao.github.io/pyxel/web/code-maker/
I'm happy to answer questions about the engine and its implementation.

Show HN: I built a better way to browse and filter the NYT's 100 Best TV Shows
I made a simple web page to help me choose what to watch from The New York Times’ 100 Best TV Shows of the 21st Century.
You can quickly see what each show is about, filter by genre, and filter by streaming service, so you can subscribe to one service at a time and watch everything you want there before moving to the next.
