I use AI agents to build UI features daily. The thing that kept annoying me: the agent writes code but never sees what it actually looks like in the browser. It can’t tell if the layout is broken or if the console is throwing errors. So I built a CLI that lets the agent open a browser, interact with the page, record what happens, and collect any errors. Then it bundles everything — video, screenshots, logs — into a self-contained HTML file I can review in seconds. proofshot start --run "npm run dev" --port 3000 # agent navigates, clicks, takes screenshots proofshot stop It works with…

Hey! My name is Dima, I am from Ukraine and I am the co-founder of Lost Pixel! We built this tool to solve our problems at work and decided to open-source it so more people can build their custom visual regression testing pipelines! If you want to chat about the tool or visual regression testing in general I am super excited to meet like-minded people! Thanks a lot for checking out the product and I hope it will serve you well if you decide to try it out :D

VizDiff▲110Hey HN, I built VizDiff, a streamlined visual regression testing tool specifically designed for Storybook components. I found existing services like Chromatic powerful, but often too feature-heavy or costly for smaller teams and bootstrapped startups. VizDiff simplifies automated screenshot testing—capturing component snapshots in CI, clearly highlighting pixel-level visual changes, and helping teams catch UI regressions before they reach production. My main goal was accessibility and ease of integration for small teams or solo devs who need effective visual testing without the overhead. I'd…

Most inference UIs that I've come across pretty much just give us a chat-like interface to toy around with models in a single visual conversation thread. Given the fact that we are limited to seeing only one output at a time, it's kind of hard to compare outputs from different models, adjustments made to the prompting, and sampler settings. But even when keeping the generation parameters the same (e.g., to test for reliability in the output) and just going for multiple passes, there is no easy way to have a side-by-side comparison to keep track of the outputs from the multiple "rounds". I…

Merge▲115We’re 5 founders who’ve collectively done over 250 interviews - everywhere from startups to Big Tech to quant shops. Most of the interviews we’ve done were Leetcode based or tested skills that weren’t used on the job. These days, with AI, assessments still continue to test code output. Meanwhile, at each of our companies, though, PR counts have nearly tripled. Most of us haven’t manually edited a line of code in a year. Our teams are putting more and more emphasis on code and architecture reviews, yet hiring processes haven’t changed whatsoever. Even the AI-assisted ones we’ve done still…
