Replicas▲239Hey HN! I'm Connor, creator of Replicas. I'm a heavy Codex/Claude Code user, and I wanted to hand off tasks to agents like I would to an engineer - kick something off before work, let it scaffold while I'm at lunch, even come back to a ready PR.

It works by capturing JSON data from your API transactions, transforming this data, and then storing it in an optimized columnar database for easy and fast querying.
