HN Summary

The Hacker News front page is dense. You want to know which handful of stories are worth opening before you start clicking.

Build a small Hacker News app.
Read the visible stories on the current page, pick the five worth opening, and add a short summary for each using their top comments.
Keep it factual and do not change the HN page.

Start rough, tighten the output, then put the app where it belongs.

1. 01

   First pass

   Read visible story titles and show a rough top-five pick.

2. 02

   Tighten it

   Use the top comments to ground each summary in one or two sentences.

3. 03

   Place it

   Add a compact panel with Summarize, Refresh, and Copy actions.

• —The app appears on Hacker News as a pill that opens a panel.
• —Summarize picks five stories from the visible list and adds a short summary for each.
• —Each card links back to the original story with points, comments, and site.
• —Copy gives the user the five picks without leaving the page.
