    I've been exploring the (not so=) amazing potential of AI in coding and have compiled a list of tools. From AI-powered IDEs to code generators, this resource is my contribution to the community. I'm still on the fence about including txt2sql projects, as their functionality seems too basic to me. And I'm personally maintaining this, so your feedback is wellcome.

    Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

    Hey HN, I’m Henry, cofounder and CTO at Span (https://span.app/). Today we’re launching AI Code Detector, an AI code detection tool you can try in your browser. The explosion of AI generated code has created some weird problems for engineering orgs. Tools like Cursor and Copilot are used by virtually every org on the planet – but each codegen tool has its own idiosyncratic way of reporting usage. Some don’t report usage at all. Our view is that token spend will start competing with payroll spend as AI becomes more deeply ingrained in how we build software, so understanding how…

    Hi, I’m Kenny, I’ve been building aislop. I starting working on this after using Claude Code, codex and opencode several times and noticing some slops. They aren’t syntax and passes most tests, they are patterns like empty catch blocks, useless comments, duplicated helpers, dead code and many more. So I built a tool to scan and check for these patterns and wired it into hooks so after each tool call, the agent checks for the slops. You can try it out with npx aislop scan. It’s all local and no code is transferred. Thank you.

    I built a CLI that detects patterns AI coding tools leave behind: empty catch blocks, hardcoded secrets, as any everywhere, comments that restate the code, god functions, SQL concatenation. 24 rules across JS/TS and Python. Zero config, runs offline, regex-based so it's fast. npx @yuvrajangadsingh/vibecheck . Also ships as a GitHub Action for inline PR annotations and standalone binaries (no Node required). Why: CodeRabbit found AI-generated PRs have 1.7x more issues than human PRs. Veracode says 45% of AI code samples have security vulnerabilities. "Vibe coding" is everywhere now…

    I built this because Cursor, Claude Code and other agentic AI tools kept giving me tests that looked fine but failed when I ran them. Or worse - I'd ask the agent to run them and it would start looping: fix tests, those fail, then it starts "fixing" my code so tests pass, or just deletes assertions so they "pass". Out of that frustration I built KeelTest - a VS Code extension that generates pytest tests and executes them, got hooked and decided to push this project forward... When tests fail, it tries to figure out why: - Generation error: Attemps to fix it automatically, then tries again -…

    The Problem "Vibing" with LLMs is often too shallow for complex logic, while writing full specifications is cognitively expensive and slow. We need a middle ground that mimics how human programmers gather context—scanning structure before diving into details. The Solution: Outline Driven Development (ODD) I've built a "batteries-included" kit for Gemini/Claude/Codex that uses AST analysis to understand code structure rather than just raw text. This relies on a hyper-optimized Rust toolchain (`ast-grep`, `ripgrep`, `jj`, etc.) to feed precise, structural context to the agent. 1. The…

    We’ve been working on Scout QA, a tool that uses AI to catch subtle bugs that usually slip past manual testing and reviews. Instead of focusing on test automation, Scout analyzes your app’s UI, flows, and logs to surface tiny inconsistencies — things like broken states, unclear error messages, or small regressions that humans might ignore because “it still works.” The goal isn’t to replace testers but to act like an extra pair of curious eyes — pointing out issues that affect real users’ experience. We’re exploring questions like: - How can an AI develop an intuition for “something feels…

    Hi HN, I built *CodeDrift*, a CLI tool that detects bugs commonly introduced by AI coding assistants like Copilot, Cursor and ChatGPT. Over the last year I noticed that AI tools often generate code that compiles correctly, passes linting and looks reasonable in code review but still contains subtle issues. Some common examples I kept seeing: * async `forEach` loops that never await promises * missing authorization checks (IDOR) * hallucinated dependencies that don’t exist * stack traces leaking sensitive information * request data used without validation These bugs often slip past ESLint,…

    Hi y'all. Been working on something that should've been made a long time ago imo. It compiles codebases into O(1) hashmaps that the agent queries to discover the structure of your code/answer questions/write code. It also does complete static analysis checks on any writes the agent makes. Don't take my word for it though. Here are the benchmarks: https://benzi.fly.dev/benchmark. on 2/20 tests, Claude Code (mostly Sonnet on one task) regressed or timed out. Benzi didn't because of course, it has a map it can query and not get lost in the sauce. On the other 18 it…
