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.
Make me a thing for Hacker News. Pick the top 5 stories I shouldopen right now and show them somewhere on the page.

Wait, those are just the top by points
Those are just the highest-voted ones. I wanted "worth opening" —usually that means discussion depth, not popularity. Use commentcount and whether the first few comments actually say something,not the score.

Add summaries — and don't make them up
Now add a 1–2 sentence summary under each pick. Pull from theactual top comments on each story. If a comment is just a memeor "this", skip it.

Stop covering the page
The panel is huge and right in the middle. Shrink it to a smallpill in a corner that expands when I click. Default state shouldbe barely there.
5
Refresh + Copy
Add a refresh button so I can re-pick after I scroll the page,and a copy button so I can paste the 5 picks into Slack withoutopening anything.

Don't touch HN itself
Just to be safe — none of this changes the HN page. No layoutshifts, no restyled links, no intercepted clicks. Pure overlayon top.
