The Resource API in Harper v5: HTTP Done Right

Harper v5's Resource API maps JavaScript class methods directly to HTTP verbs, eliminating routing and translation layers. Tables extend the same Resource class, unifying HTTP handling and data access into one interface. Key v5 additions include pre-parsed RequestTarget objects, Response-aware source caching with stale-while-revalidate support, and async context tracking via getContext().

Most LLM Calls Are Waste. Here's the Math.

Semantic caching for LLMs can reduce API costs by 20–70% by reusing similar responses. Combined with deterministic routing and improved retrieval, enterprises can significantly lower LLM usage, though effectiveness varies by workload and improves over time.
