Hey HN, it's Farrukh and Umar. We're building listen.dev–a tool for proactive security monitoring in GitHub Actions to secure software releases from supply chain threats. Why we built this: As friends and collaborators for over a decade, we've been working on various startup ideas in dev tools and infrastructure. In 2017, while building an ML ops toolkit on Kubernetes, we got hacked. During a pilot with a fintech customer, our cluster became victim to a crypto-jacking attack. As it turned out, a dependency in our container base image contained malware (a Monero miner) which triggered inside…

Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep here. A few months ago, we introduced here at HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34806482) Keep as an “open source alerting CLI” and got some interesting feedback - mainly around UI, automation, and supporting more tools. We were VERY early back then, and we understood that although the current DX around creating alerts is not great, it's not that critical and developers don’t need another tool just for that. But we did find something else. While talking to developers and devops, we found that a lot of companies use many tools…

Hey HN! I'm Jacob, one of the founders of Depot (https://depot.dev), a build service for Docker images, and I'm excited to show what we’ve been working on for the past few months: run GitHub Actions jobs in AWS, orchestrated by Depot! Here's a video demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VX5Z-k1mGc8, and here’s our blog post: https://depot.dev/blog/depot-github-actions-runners. While GitHub Actions is one of the most prevalent CI providers, Actions is slow, for a few reasons: GitHub uses underpowered CPUs, network throughput for cache and the…

I've created a GitHub Action for running commands on multiple platforms. This includes platforms that GitHub Actions don't natively support. It currently supports FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD. OpenBSD can run on x86-64 and ARM64, the other operating systems run on x86-64. Some of the features that are supported include: * Multiple operating system with one single action * Multiple versions of each operating system * Allows to use default shell or Bash shell * Low boot overhead * Fast execution * Runs on both macOS and Linux runners Compared to similar solutions like…

Hi all! I wanted to share a small project that I've been working on with a buddy. https://www.actionspanel.app/ One of the problems that currently exists with GitHub Actions is the fact that there is no way to easily trigger your Actions unless you cause some kind of GitHub event. This could be pushing a new commit, or creating an issue on a repository. But if you just want to run an arbitrary action, there's not currently a good way to do that. This is a well known feature request: https://github.community/t5/GitHub-Actions/GitHub-Actions-Ma... GitHub…

Hello HN! I built a pre-commit code scanner that checks your staged changes for security vulnerabilities every time you run 'git commit'. I am an inexperienced programmer and this is my first personal project. Any feedback, positive or negative, big or small, relevant or not, would be greatly helpful and appreciated! The tool requires Gitleaks and Python to run, you will also need to use your own AI API key, which I understand is a big setup friction. You can check out my demo video instead if that is more convenient: https://youtu.be/ZYe5vWFRTus?si=9Fv8DhTHktwDK4mV Thank you…

All— Lazy Sundays are for fun vibe coding, and this particular weekend, I decided to play around with the GitHub API. Ended up building this little app: GitHub Detective. It fetches the latest activity of a user, but in a nice way—you can filter by categories like PRs, issues, comments, etc., and easily navigate to them. You can also generate a sarcastic analysis of the user based on their activity, then download and share it with friends. :)

I’m excited to share Actionate, a passion project my team and I have been building to reimagine GitHub Actions within JetBrains IDEs. We’ve spent over a decade working in innovation labs at major tech companies, but our true passion lies in crafting tools that we genuinely want to use every day. With Actionate, we’re not just integrating CI/CD into JetBrains; we’re leveraging the powerful building blocks provided by JetBrains and GitHub Actions to create new, transformative functionality. Our MVP (Minimum Viable Product) focuses on the most essential features we find critical for a…
