Hi HN, today I’m revealing Altar II, an ultra-low profile (4.75mm) mechanical keyboard designed to replace your Magic Keyboard. It’s the keyboard I wish Apple made.Altar II has fully mechanical switches, plus a magnetically detachable dial, haptic feedback, a red backlight, and a native macOS companion app.I’m a heavy Mac user and I feel that Apple hasn’t given its keyboards the attention they deserve, in terms of hardware, software, and features, so I set out to try and change that.It was a massive undertaking and it has taken almost 2 years to get to this stage. One of the main obstacles was fitting a reasonably sized battery into the chassis, and aggressive power profiling without messing with the user experience. Another issue was we couldn’t fit any components on the underside of the PCB because there was literally no space to do so (and there are a lot of components).Around 4 years ago I posted my first keyboard to HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32507172). Its response blew me away and ultimately led to me quitting my job and making and selling keyboards full time. I’ve taken some of the feedback from that original post and incorporated it into Altar II (e.g. the detachable dial).I’ll be around to answer any questions. Please let me know what you think, I’d love to get some feedback. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49197137 Points: 293 # Comments: 237

Today we're launching a developer preview of WebMCP on Cloudflare. With one switch, any site becomes usable by browser AI agents — no new APIs, no origin changes — while the human stays in control and creators keep their traffic.

We should be giving all agents tools that excel at what’s important for an AI model. Kitesurf is Cloudflare’s new stateless, highly scalable, and cost-effective web browser that runs entirely on top of Workers and was designed specifically for the Agentic Cloud.

Agents are a new kind of visitor. They don't render CSS or click ads, but they have a paying human on the other end. Block them and you block your customer. We're building the open tools and protocols so publishers and agents can cooperate and not collide.

More than half of requests now come from machines, not people. Agent Readiness shows how well agents can discover and read your site, while Answer Engine Optimization tracks how often AI assistants recommend you.

The MCP 2026-07-28 specification, released last week with updated TypeScript, Python, Go, and C# SDKs, makes MCP a fully stateless protocol—eliminating the sticky sessions, open streams, and message replay that previously made remote MCP servers complex to host. MCP servers can now run in a single Cloudflare Worker with no stateful infrastructure required.

Cloudflare AI Search now automatically orchestrates Workers AI, AI Gateway, Vectorize, R2, and Browser Run, removing the need to manually stitch these primitives together. New features include sitemap-less website parsing via a 'Discover' option, public /search and /mcp endpoints with custom domain support, and a pricing preview where embedding and reranking are free when using default models.
