    Continuous Claude is a CLI wrapper I made that runs Claude Code in an iterative loop with persistent context, automatically driving a PR-based workflow. Each iteration creates a branch, applies a focused code change, generates a commit, opens a PR via GitHub's CLI, waits for required checks and reviews, merges if green, and records state into a shared notes file. This avoids the typical stateless one-shot pattern of current coding agents and enables multi-step changes without losing intermediate reasoning, test failures, or partial progress. The tool is useful for tasks that require many…

    At my work they provided a single Claude subscription for everyone on the team. To be honest I like kiro better as it provides a way better SDD management. But the company can't provide it and I can't afford it yet. Turns out I had the skill creator skill in my claude instance so I made use of it to create this Skill. I made it fully by using Claude but I wanted to make it open source, so I asked it to help me make tests and preparations for it, even a CI to run python tests. Well, we got this results with it: - Phase 2A: 67 static assertions (Python script, runs in CI) - Phase 2B: 15…

    Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

    Spec Driven Development approach allows to squeeze more from coding agents thanks to few strong concepts: - decomposition across two dimensions. first you generate specs in multiple steps (requirements, code analysis, design), than you split task into multiple subtasks and implement them one by one - you clear context between every step - after spec generation and after subtask implementation. this helps keep cost low and context clear and focused which boost performance - specs written to disk help with information persistency - delivering specs layer by layer help to catch early when agent…

    I built a CLI that detects patterns AI coding tools leave behind: empty catch blocks, hardcoded secrets, as any everywhere, comments that restate the code, god functions, SQL concatenation. 24 rules across JS/TS and Python. Zero config, runs offline, regex-based so it's fast. npx @yuvrajangadsingh/vibecheck . Also ships as a GitHub Action for inline PR annotations and standalone binaries (no Node required). Why: CodeRabbit found AI-generated PRs have 1.7x more issues than human PRs. Veracode says 45% of AI code samples have security vulnerabilities. "Vibe coding" is everywhere now…

    I'm a CTO with a ~16-person engineering team. Last year I wanted real data on what was actually shipping, not guesswork or story point theater. So we built GitVelocity. Every merged PR gets scored 0–100 by Claude across six dimensions: scope (0–20), architecture (0–20), implementation (0–20), risk (0–20), quality (0–15), perf/security (0–5). Six dimensions added up, then scaled by change size — a 10-line fix scores lower than a 500-line refactor even at the same complexity. Full formula at gitvelocity.dev/scoring-guide. After scoring 50,000+ PRs across TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go,…

    I have been using a Spec-Driven Development approach for all mid+ size coding tasks since Feb 2026: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48231575. One of the reasons for developing my own plugin (sddw - spec driven development workflow https://github.com/sermakarevich/sddw/) was to adjust it to my specific needs and the typical size of the features I build. Since then, this approach (sddw) has been presented at a few companies, including Google Poland. One of the conclusions from these conversations was that some teams would also like to adapt the…

    As a product manager, I have always wished to automate some of the repetitive tasks. With GPT-3 & ChatGPT being so accessible, I created this app which creates a Product requirement doc. It generates PRD following Lenny's Rachitsky template - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1541V32QgSwyCFWxtiMIThn-6... Do try it out and let me know your feedback :)
