Show HN: I'm 16 y/o and Built the only AI Agent for Hardware and Software Dev

Hey HN, I am 16y/o and have been working on Sprocket for a while.

It's an open-source AI agent that, unlike other AI agents, tackles both hardware and software, and does it cheaper and better than them.

And guess what? Sprocket can (on its own): buy anything from any website when you tell it to do so. From hardware parts to SaaS subscriptions. This is just one of many unique features we are working on for Sprocket.

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
