Self-describing API responses for agents, but REST + Problem Details already solve this partially.

Hardware-enclave PIN security without the hardware: the key is split between the user's PIN and a rate-throttled key server, eliminating offline brute-force — wrong guesses hit a lifetime cap, like a TPM. Vanilla JS client + tiny PHP server.

VESlocker – stop offline brute-force of PIN-protected local data
by VESvault·Jul 7, 2026·2 points·2 comments
AI Analysis
●●SolidBig BrainCozy
TPM-like lifetime attempt caps in ~360 lines of vanilla JS and PHP.
Strengths
- •Exponential throttling with lifetime cap mimics hardware enclave behavior elegantly.
- •Server never sees PIN, seed, or ciphertext — only challenge hashes for verification.
Weaknesses
- •Requires trusting a key server, which reintroduces centralization concerns.
- •WebAuthn and hardware security keys already solve this for many use cases.

Brute-force startup ideation with the Ralph Loop
The core trick is simple and effective: let an agent iterate questions against a defined domain overnight and surface hundreds of candidly-annotated ideas you can scan through later. It nails the “fire-and-forget” idea dump and domain steering (tell it to focus on agencies or cybersecurity and it pivots), but it’s still essentially a convenience wrapper around an existing agent pattern — useful for volume and pattern recognition, less convincing on long-term validation or downstream filtering.
