    Hi HN, I'm the author of git-lrc, would appreciate some feedback from the community Last year my team started using AI coding tools more heavily, and we found ourselves generating tons of code, but spending less time looking at the stuff that's been generated. We felt like we were losing a bit of grip/understanding of what we were building. Regressions occasionally slipped through. Sometimes changes made it all the way to production only to be reverted later. We tried several AI code review tools, but most operate at PR time. That felt too late. I wanted review to happen while the…

    hi guys. been working on something i think is fundamentally missing in today's workflow with ai agents. vcs. i find myself struggling with questions that agents can't answer like "why did you do it?", "when did u delete this folder? why?", etc. or trying to /rewind (after a /compact...) or basically `bisect` to find when and why something was done by the agent in the current / previous session. just like git did for code, i think we are the same core capabilities with ai agents so... i developed an open source solution for that (currently supporting claude code) would love to…

    Hey HN! I built a proof-of-concept for AI memory using Git instead of vector databases. The insight: Git already solved versioned document management. Why are we building complex vector stores when we could just use markdown files with Git's built-in diff/blame/history? How it works: Memories stored as markdown files in a Git repo Each conversation = one commit git diff shows how understanding evolves over time BM25 for search (no embeddings needed) LLMs generate search queries from conversation context Example: Ask "how has my project evolved?" and it uses git diff to show actual…

    Today we are launching YourGPT 2.0, an update focused on making support, sales, and operational workflows work together more smoothly in one system. This release improves how workflows are built, how the platform connects to external tools, and how context is maintained across long, multi-channel interactions. AI Studio now makes it much easier to create and refine workflows. You can describe the process you want in natural language and the system generates the full workflow for you. It can also help debug issues by showing what happened at each step and explaining where things went off…

    Hi everyone, I built a CLI tool called *diny* that generates Git commit messages directly from your staged changes. - It runs `git diff` and filters out noise like lockfiles, build artifacts, and binaries. - From the cleaned diff it suggests a clear commit message. - You can confirm or refine the message before committing. Key points: - No setup or API keys required. - Lightweight, local-first workflow. - Supports different lengths and styles (short, normal, long; conventional or simple). - Built in Go with Cobra for a familiar CLI experience. Repo:…

    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.

    Git AI is a side project I created to track AI-generated code in our repos from development, through PRs, and into production. It does not just count lines, it keeps track of them as your code evolves, gets refactored and the git history gets rewritten. Think 'git blame' but for AI code. There's a lot about how it works in the post, but wanted to share how it's been impacting me + my team: - I find I review AI code very differently than human code. Being able to see the prompts my colleagues used, what the AI wrote, and where they stepped in to override has been extraordinarily helpful. This…

    Hi HN, Martin, Nils, and Jannes here. We are building Legit, an open source version control and collaboration layer for AI agents and AI native applications. You can find the repo here https://github.com/Legit-Control/monorepo and the website here https://legitcontrol.com Over the last years, we worked on multiple developer tools and AI driven products. As soon as we started letting agents modify real files and business critical data, one problem kept showing up. We could not reliably answer what changed, why it changed, or how to safely undo it. Today, most AI…

    Today you can easily adopt AI coding tools because you have git for branching and rolling back if AI writes bad code. We haven't seen this same capability for data and decided to build it ourselves. Nile is a new kind of data lake, purpose built for using with AI. It can act as your data engineer or data analyst creating new tables and rolling back bad changes in seconds. We support real versions for data, schema, and ETL. We'd love your feedback on any part of what we are building - https://getnile.ai/ What do you think?
