    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.

    I've been building a tool that changes how LLM coding agents explore codebases, and I wanted to share it along with some early observations. Typically claude code globs directories, greps for patterns, and reads files with minimal guidance. It works in kind of the same way you'd learn to navigate a city by walking every street. You'll eventually build a mental map, but claude never does - at least not any that persists across different contexts. The Recursive Language Models paper from Zhang, Kraska, and Khattab at MIT CSAIL introduced a cleaner framing. Instead of cramming everything into…

    Current AI-assisted CLI tools are often part of larger systems and work better on Linux. I built llm-term to address these. It's a Rust-based tool that compiles into a single binary file. You only need to download the binary, add it to your PATH, and configure your OpenAI key to get started. While llm-term offers an option for gpt-4o, it works great with gpt-4o-mini. So it's not costly. I appreciate any feedback or suggestions.

    Small codebases were always a good thing. With coding agents, there's now a huge advantage to having a codebase small enough that an agent can hold the full thing in context. Repo Tokens is a GitHub Action that counts your codebase's size in tokens (using tiktoken) and updates a badge in your README. The badge color reflects what percentage of an LLM's context window the codebase fills: green for under 30%, yellow for 50-70%, red for 70%+. Context window size is configurable and defaults to 200k (size of Claude models). It's a composite action. Installs tiktoken, runs ~60 lines of inline…

    We built a reference MCP server that lets your editor/agent learn a codebase directly from source (signatures, types, AST, comments). Docs are optional. The reference impl runs on our open-source project’s codebase. Why we built it Docs are important, but they add another abstraction layer between your code and your users. Keeping them at the right quality is hard (especially at a startup), and LLM-generated docs are often mediocre until you invest real polish. Exposing code to the model in a structured way keeps answers grounded and current, and it’s always available. You can even…

    As a former CIO who managed teams working with millions of lines of legacy code (Visual Basic, Sybase, Oracle Forms, and worse), I feel the pain of maintaining and onboarding developers to legacy systems. Believing that LLM-enabled tools can play a role in solving this, I've built a tool that automatically generates documentation for legacy codebases using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) & Claude Sonnet. At first glance, I think this approach has merit. Some samples are in the README. I welcome your thoughts. The Problem: - Legacy codebases are notoriously difficult to understand and…

    G'day, HN! I'm one of the maintainers of `llm`. I've been working alongside a trusty group of contributors to bring this project to life, and we're now at a point where we're ready to share it with the world. Large language models (LLMs) are taking the computing world by storm due to their emergent abilities that allow them to perform a wide variety of tasks, including translation, summarization, code generation, and even some degree of reasoning. However, the ecosystem around LLMs is still in its infancy, and it can be difficult to get started with these models. `llm` is a one-stop shop for…

    I've created uithub, a tool that allows developers to easily get LLM context for their coding questions and perform AI repo analysis at scale. Here's what it does: - Get Context: Simply change the 'g' in github.com to 'u' to access AI-powered insights on any GitHub repo. - Flexible Querying: Fetch entire repos, specific branches/subfolders, or filter by file type and size. - API for Developers: Power the next generation of development tools with our API. Key features: - Customizable token limits - File type filtering - Multiple response formats - Size-based file exclusion I built this…

    We used Apple Containers to run LLM generated code locally. Leverage remote LLMs (like ChatGPT or Claude Sonnet 4) to work with your local files—such as videos—securely on your Mac. The LLM runs in a sandboxed environment where it can install external libraries, generate code, and execute it locally without uploading your data to the cloud.
