Show HN: Sprocket – The Best AI Agent for Hardware and Software Development
Hey HN,
I am 16y/o and have been working on Sprocket for a while. It's an open-source AI agent that beats every other agent out there at both hardware and software.
And here's the best part: Sprocket can (on its own) buy anything from any website when you tell it to do so. From hardware parts to SaaS subscriptions.
Sprocket retrieves best-in-class context from the web for everything it does. It is therefore incredibly reliable.
The agent harness's quality, performance, and UI rival that of Codex/Cursor/T3Code, and we are rapidly improving.
We will be releasing benchmarks on how Sprocket beats every other agent at both software and hardware soon.
In terms of hardware design, Sprocket can make beautiful schematics in react, create your BOM, and create detailed assembly instructions.
Hope you try it out!
Thanks,
Aarav
P.S. if the demo video doesn't load for you, come back after ~1.5hr and it should be there, I kinda had to submit this early. Sorry!

- slater 2mo agoyou should create more sockpuppet accounts to write nice comments ;)
- amronos 2mo agoSorry, these aren't puppet accounts, btw, just accounts of some friends and family who somehow found this project.
- slater 2mo agoriiight... kinda like the last time something like this happened ("friends" instead of "team mates") ;) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49040902 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49040902

- greenregiment 2mo agoSlater name 1 impressive thing you’ve ever done. Miserable loser with 0 accomplishments
- amronos 2mo agoDid you look at the project btw? Any opinions?
- astaka 2mo agoYep, it's pretty cool! I actually tried building a tiny robot car myself before, but I don't have a hardware background, so it was really challenging to learn everything and source all the components. I even used an AI agent (OpenClaw) to help me with the project, but I still ran into a lot of obstacles—things like circuit diagrams, wiring, hardware tools, and understanding the documentation. Eventually, I gave up... haha. I think your tool could really help people like me who want to build hardware projects but don't have much experience. It's a great idea!

- ilikenix-os 2mo agoLooks like you used Prava to handle the agentic payments. Really neat!
- amronos 2mo agoYup, I am actually participating in their agentic commerce hackathon with this project
