"Work, work" Been squirreled away getting BuildBoost to a point that it mirrors my current workflow of posting to a few targeted platforms consistently. You can now write free form posts, post them to BuildBoost's feed, and optionally post them out to platforms of your choice OR use BuildBoost to generate on top of and riff on your own words tailoring them them to a different platform. As always you can still have BuildBoost generate everything from scratch based on your projects commit history, but "Write anything" feels more appropriate. Start with your own words, optionally embellish with an LLM.

isketch has a side panel now: every action in one place, folding down to icons when you want the canvas back. Deleted the menu button that listed the same actions twice. Less hunting for where a tool lives, more drawing.

Over the past few weeks, I've been building out a B2B feature for Quick Memorial Web — a platform that lets funeral homes (brokers) create and manage memorial pages for their clients. Here's what went down. Phase 0 was the foundation: auth, membership, RLS policies, and a script to provision a test broker org. I needed to make sure brokers could sign up, log in via magic link, and have their users scoped to the right organization. Phase 1 shipped the broker dashboard with a guarded stub, a session helper, and the ability to list an organization's memorials. The dashboard now shows brokers which memorials they own. Phase 2 added the ability to create memorials — auto-premium, live, and permanent — from a new form. I extracted shared display helpers (isLiveMemorial, memorialLifeSpan) to keep the dashboard and the new public directory consistent. And the latest: a public broker directory at /b/<slug>. Now anyone can browse a funeral home's memorials without logging in. The directory reuses those same display helpers. Why this matters: most memorial sites lock content behind login walls. I wanted brokers to have a shareable, public presence that feels professional and drives engagement. The directory is simple — just a slug-based URL — but it's the kind of feature that makes a platform sticky. Next up: analytics and maybe a way for families to contribute photos. Let me know what you think!

SeoRanksLab: Open-source SEO toolkit now fully free, just shipped key fixes and features

I've been building SeoRanksLab, an open-source SEO analytics platform. This week I merged several fixes and features that might interest folks dealing with Google Search Console and SEO tooling.

Key changes:

  • Fixed audit page crash for 'sc-domain' GSC properties (the www redirect check doesn't apply there)
  • Made migration 009 idempotent (drop policy if exists) – no more failed migrations on re-runs
  • Removed hardcoded API key from CrUX audit, switched to keyless POST endpoint (security win)
  • Added product roadmap: rank tracking, content briefs, MCP server, audit, portfolio
  • Added 'This Week' card with effort tags and 'What Moved' wins – focused on solo founder needs
  • Free SEO tools hub: CTR by position, striking distance, CTR audit
  • Removed pricing page – now fully free and open source

What I learned: Never hardcode API keys. Even in early stages, it's a bad habit. The keyless POST endpoint for CrUX is cleaner and more secure.

The sc-domain fix was subtle: Google Search Console properties set to 'sc-domain' don't have a www/non-www distinction, so the redirect check was crashing. Easy fix once I understood the data model.

Looking for feedback:

  • Anyone else run into sc-domain gotchas?
  • What SEO tools would you like to see next?

BuildBoost: Public Shipping Feed & AI Post Generation

I've been working on BuildBoost, a tool that helps indie developers who can code but struggle to promote their work. The idea is simple: connect your GitHub repo, and we generate social media posts from your recent commits.

What's new

Public Shipping Feed

I added a Supabase-backed public feed that shows recent commits from all users. It's like a mini build-in-public timeline. Each commit shows the repo, message, and timestamp. This makes it easy for others to discover what you're working on.

DeepSeek AI Post Generation

Now when you select a repo, we use DeepSeek to generate a post about the latest commits. The prompt is designed to sound human and specific, avoiding corporate jargon. You can then edit and post to X or LinkedIn.

Improved Auth Flow

I fixed the GitHub OAuth flow so the admin client is used internally for storeGithubToken, and the callback redirect is smoother. Also fixed a bug where the authenticated client wasn't passed to satisfy RLS policies.

Tech Stack

  • Next.js (App Router)
  • Supabase (auth, database, RLS)
  • GitHub OAuth & REST API
  • DeepSeek API
  • Excalidraw for planning snapshots

How it works

  1. Sign in with GitHub
  2. Select a repo
  3. See recent commits
  4. Click "Generate Post" – AI writes a draft
  5. Edit and share

Future plans

  • Scheduled posting
  • Multi-platform support
  • Analytics on post performance

Feedback welcome!

Hacker News

Show HN: BuildBoost – Turn your GitHub commits into social posts BuildBoost is a tool that helps indie developers promote their work by automatically generating social media posts from recent commits. It uses DeepSeek for AI copywriting and Supabase for storage with RLS. New in this update: - Public shipping feed showing everyone's recent builds - AI post generation from selected repos - Smoother GitHub OAuth flow Built with Next.js, Supabase, GitHub REST API. Open source at github.com/aaronmyatt/build-boost. Would love your thoughts on the approach – do AI-generated posts feel too generic? How do you handle promotion?

BuildBoost just got a public shipping feed + AI post generation

I've been building BuildBoost, a tool that turns your GitHub commits into social media posts for indie devs who want to build in public but hate the promo grind.

Recent updates:

  • Public shipping feed: shows recent commits from all users, stored in Supabase
  • DeepSeek integration: pick a repo, get a generated post
  • Improved GitHub OAuth flow with proper client handling
  • Visual plan snapshots synced via Excalidraw

Would love feedback on the feed UX and if the AI posts feel authentic enough. Repo: github.com/aaronmyatt/build-boost
