24 alternatives to Sourcewizard – A wizard for generating integration specs
Hey HN, Ivan here We just shipped the new web version of Sourcewizard — this time it’s not installing code, planning instead the entire integration so it works on the first try. Here's how it works: - Connect your repo - Pick any service eg: Sentry, Statsig, PostHog, Resend, Clerk - Sourcewizard deep-scans your codebase, figures out your architecture + workflows - Asks 3-6 questions about how you want to use the integration specifically in your codebase - Returns out a personalized plan: ready-to-paste prompt for Claude/Cursor We made this because we kept fighting with cursor when doing…

Hi HN! I’m Ivan, one of the founders of Sourcewizard. It’s a CLI tool that works with AI coding agents (like Cursor and Claude) to install and set up SDKs correctly including middleware, pages, env vars, everything. Similar to the PostHog Install AI Wizard: https://posthog.com/docs/ai-engineering/ai-wizard But for more packages. Run this to try it: npx ai-setup clerk We built it after watching agents fail basic installs. Wrong packages, deprecated methods, half-finished setups. Sourcewizard uses package-specific prompts that complete clean installs ~90% of the time…

Hi HN, We’re Brendan and Michael, the creators of Sourcebot (https://github.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot). Sourcebot is an open-source code search tool that allows you to quickly search across many large codebases. Check out our demo video here: https://youtu.be/mrIFYSB_1F4, or try it for yourself on our demo site here: https://demo.sourcebot.dev While at prior roles, we’ve both felt the pain of searching across hundreds of multi-million line codebases. Using local tools like grep were ill-suited since you often only had a handful of codebases…

Hi HN, We’re Brendan and Michael, the creators of Sourcebot (https://www.sourcebot.dev/), a self-hosted code understanding tool for large codebases. We originally launched on HN 9 months ago with code search (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41711032), and we’re excited to share our newest feature: Ask Sourcebot. Ask Sourcebot is an agentic search tool that lets you ask complex questions about your entire codebase in natural language, and returns a structured response with inline citations back to your code. Some types of questions you might ask: - “How does…

Integuru▲161Hey HN! We’re Alan and Richard from Integuru (YC W24). We generate fast, reliable integrations for platforms lacking official APIs. About 2 years ago, we released the first agent that reverse-engineers network traffic to build integrations (https://github.com/Integuru-AI/Integuru). Since then, we’ve developed a new approach to reverse-engineer platforms’ source code directly. This solution also includes authentication support. Here’s a demo: https://youtu.be/4l2L8fILC2g?si=nbWbDiFrWZIWRPM7. Many AI products need to integrate with web apps, but platforms…

After years of struggling with onboarding to new projects, I got tired of spending weeks just trying to grasp the basics of a codebase. The README rarely tells the whole story, and "just read the code" isn't practical for large repos. I built RepoIQ to create personalized learning paths through any GitHub repository. It analyzes the codebase structure, identifies key components, and creates a step-by-step guide tailored to your learning needs.

Hey developers I think we're tired of copying and pasting our codes and sharing links using PasteBin, GithubGist, or Slack. What if you could share the codes without copying the link and share them right from your favorite editor? That was the motivation for creating TurboGist. Right now, it's still in the MVP stage, and I'm trying to gather feedback from developers like you. It's available as a beta in the VS Code Extension store. Can you guys check this out? It'd help me a lot. You don't need to pay any penny, 100% FREE. However, I'm working on introducing a self-hosted feature. Besides, a…

GenDB▲6Hey HN, Nic here. I recently built a prototype called GenDB, an AI-powered backend builder designed to eliminate boilerplate and streamline database deployment. The idea came out of my own frustrations: I was spending hours writing and rewriting Python code with TortoiseORM just to build and modify basic schemas. Then I’d have to deploy it all over again for even small changes. After seeing tools like Lovable and Cursor make front-end development nearly effortless, I started to wonder: why wasn’t backend development just as fluid? With GenDB, you can: - Prompt a schema (e.g., “Instagram…

Hi HN, My name is Ravi Sojitra and i'm working on a Dev Tool product named DhiWise, that let you generate production ready source code(For Node.js,Laravel,Flutter,Kotlin,Swift) in few mins with ready to get synced in your GitHub/GitLab or Download. Let me explain like you're five. Imagine you want to bake a cake and you have all the raw materials you need such as flour, baking powder, eggs. Now, you give us those materials and we will bake you the ready-to-serve cake of your choice. With this product's context, with just minimal technology specific inputs, this builder is going to…

Hey everyone, My friend and I built a simple bug fixing app that listens for alerts/issues from Sentry, contextualizes it against your codebase, and any other data sources you wish to connect (right now we support Notion, Google Docs, and Slack), and deploys an ai agent to write a PR for review in Github or Gitlab to solve the bug. Our current demo shows the end-to-end process for a trivial bug fix, but we have been testing it with open source python repos like http-pie, comparing how our agent solves a bug compared to a human engineer and it gets fairly close. We are working on adding…

Hey HN! I wanted to practice "vibe coding" and see how far and fast I can go by only prompting, without actual coding. I decided to make a simple CLI app that scrapes web docs into a single md file (I was annoyed that LLM keeps writing Tailwind 3 code for a Tailwind 4 project). In just a couple of hours, the CLI app was ready! Then iterated on arguments for another couple of hours. Result: https://github.com/vladstudio/web2llm Then I decided to go further and "productize" the CLI by making a web app for it. Another half-day, and the web app is ready!…

AttackerView▲13Last week I wrote about building a scanner that writes its own exploits. A cron job runs Claude Code every night, it reads new CVEs, writes proof-of-concept checks, tests them against vulnerable and patched Docker instances, and opens PRs. I review and merge in the morning. That post was about how t

Hey HN, In the months since we initially released Burr (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39917364), we have been hard at work. We wanted to share some of the most exciting changes we’ve made to build Burr out as a full-stack development framework for AI agents. In case you don’t recall, Burr is an open-source python library that makes it easier to build and debug GenAI applications & agents by representing them as graphs of simple python objects/functions. Burr only abstracts away system-level concerns (state persistence, debugging, observability), and does not…

I love Claude Code but got tired of having nothing to do while I waited for sessions to finish, and managing multiple sessions on the command line was getting annoying and I kept losing track of the tabs. I originally built a quick and dirty version of this for my own use, but decided to polish it up and make it open source. The idea is that you should be able to do all your agentic coding without leaving the tool or needing to go back to a traditional IDE. You can view the diffs, run your program, and merge your changes back. I support OSX and Linux right now, but could add Windows support…

A few weeks ago I posted about GoodToGo https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46656759 - a tool that gives AI agents a deterministic answer to "is this PR ready to merge?" Several people asked about the larger orchestration system I mentioned. This is that system. I got tired of being a project manager for Claude Code. It writes code fine, but shipping production code is seven or eight jobs — research, planning, design review, implementation, code review, security audit, PR creation, CI babysitting. I was doing all the coordination myself. The agent typed fast. I was still the…

heylo! open sourcing a plugin that I've been daily driving for a month. And I promise, I can't go back to vanilla Claude Code. I'm a heavy Claude Code user, and a couple of things kept bugging me. Claude really likes to jump into code. And its responses are too long. I'd skim past walls of text just to find the recommendation. Plan mode helps, but it didn't go deep enough. The questions it asked were still implementation questions, when what I actually needed was alignment on the problem. So I made it stop. Relay is a different output style and two Python hooks. When you describe what you…

Imagine you have to make a little change in all your microservices, like changing a line in Dockerfile, but you have 50 microservices, ouch right! The PRs, pipelines, reviews... I have created a dashboard with a chatbot where you can simply ask "Update all repositories with alpine base image version X to Y", and then click next a bunch of time and see a list of PRs with their pipeline status. Hi friends I'm Daniel, the creator of Infra as AI. I was laid off from my SRE role a couple of months ago, and decided to build something that could always help me at work.

I'm an "ideas person" who messes around with AI on a low budget. I got tired of watching my tokens vanish and context windows filling up while agents fumbled around trying to find the right thing. Agents don't flail like they used to with shell tools, but there are still weak/blind spots and back-and-forth episodes — especially when using tools in combination/sequence. So I built "tilth" today. Or rather, AI built it — every line is Opus 4.6. I spent a lot of my precious tokens getting it to "not shit" (at least several of the different vendors' AI overlords assure me it's not…

Hey HN! I'm one of the cofounders of Sourcebot, an open source alternative to Sourcegraph. Sourcebot lets you index thousands of repos across multiple platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket), and gives you a powerful interface to search across them. You can learn more in our original HN launch post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41711032 We just added an AI code review agent that reviews your PRs and automatically detects issues that a human reviewer may have missed. We've been using an AI code review agent for a few weeks now, and it regularly catches issues that we…
