## Features

- 📰 **Story browser** — Top, New, Best, Ask HN, Show HN with tab switching
- 💬 **Comment threads** — navigate with `j/k`, fold/unfold, lazy-load reply trees
- 🌐 **Translation** — translate a title with `t`, all visible titles with `T`, or a selected comment
- 🔄 **Soft refresh** — refresh stories or comments without restarting
- 🎨 **Themes** — hn, mocha, dracula, tokyo, nord, gruvbox
- ⚡ **Progressive loading** — visible range loads first, more fetched as you scroll

## Install

**Homebrew** (macOS / Linux):

```bash
$ brew install heartleo/tap/hn
```

**winget** (Windows):

```powershell
$ winget install heartleo.hn
```

**curl** (macOS / Linux):

```bash
$ curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/heartleo/hn-cli/main/install.sh | sh
```

No `sudo` needed — the binary is installed under your home directory. The install
directory is picked from the first of these that is set:

| Source           | Value                   |
| ---------------- | ----------------------- |
| `HN_INSTALL_DIR` | used as-is              |
| `XDG_BIN_HOME`   | used as-is              |
| `XDG_DATA_HOME`  | `$XDG_DATA_HOME/../bin` |
| *(default)*      | `$HOME/.local/bin`      |

To install somewhere else:

```bash
$ curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/heartleo/hn-cli/main/install.sh | HN_INSTALL_DIR=~/bin sh
```

The script warns if the install directory is not on your `$PATH`, and prints the
`export PATH=...` line to add to your shell profile.

The script never calls `sudo`. To install system-wide, run it as root yourself:

```bash
$ curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/heartleo/hn-cli/main/install.sh -o install.sh
$ sudo env HN_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin sh install.sh
```

**Prebuilt binaries** — download from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/heartleo/hn-cli/releases)

**Go install** (requires Go 1.25+):

```bash
$ go install github.com/heartleo/hn-cli/cmd/hn@latest
```

**Build from source:**

```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/heartleo/hn-cli
$ cd hn
$ go build -o hn ./cmd/hn
```

## Claude Code Plugin

This repo also ships [**hn**](plugins/hn), a Claude Code plugin that brings Hacker News to Claude.

```
/plugin marketplace add heartleo/hn-cli
/plugin install hn@hn-cli
```

| Skill       | What it does                                                        |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `hn-digest` | Scan the front page — today's themes, hot discussions, industry mix |

Then just ask: `what's on HN today`. Ask in any language and the digest comes back in that language. See the [plugin README](plugins/hn) for details.

The digest is also published daily at [hndigest.heartleo.dev](https://hndigest.heartleo.dev).

## DeepSeek Harness Plugin

For [DeepSeek Harness](https://deepseek-harness.github.io/deepseek-harness/) there is [**hacker-news**](plugins/hacker-news), a plain-ESM plugin that reads the public Hacker News APIs directly. It needs neither an HN API key nor a local terminal client.

### Install from npm

The published package is [`dsh-hacker-news`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/dsh-hacker-news). It is also listed in the [awesome-dsh-plugin community registry](https://github.com/awesome-dsh-plugin/awesome-dsh-plugin). DSH profiles are pnpm workspace roots, so keep the `-w` flag:

```sh
dsh plugin --profile  add -w dsh-hacker-news
```

If your npm mirror has not indexed the latest release, run the installation against the public registry:

```powershell
$env:npm_config_registry = 'https://registry.npmjs.org/'
dsh plugin --profile  add -w dsh-hacker-news
```

Start or restart the same profile, then verify that the composed configuration includes `dsh-hacker-news`:

```sh
dsh --profile
dsh --profile  --dump-config
```

### Install from source

This form follows the repository's `main` branch and is intended for development or trying unreleased changes:

```sh
dsh plugin --profile  add -w github:heartleo/hn-cli#path:/plugins/hacker-news
```

After installation, ask naturally, for example: `what's popular on HN?`, `search HN for sqlite`, or `read HN item 49322107 and summarize the discussion`.

| Tool         | What it does                                            |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| `hn_stories` | Ranked feeds — top / new / best / ask / show / job       |
| `hn_item`    | An item plus its reply tree in reading order            |
| `hn_search`  | Algolia search, by relevance or date                    |
| `hn_user`    | Karma, account age, bio, submission count               |

See the [plugin README](plugins/hacker-news) for configuration.
