Products that do what YOYO – AI Version Control for Vibe Coding does
Hey HN — Been deep in vibe coding with AI tools like Cursor and Windsurf — but sometimes, AI edits don’t go as planned. You hit revert… and only some files roll back, or your repo ends up in a weird state. Especially messy when you’ve got multiple chats open and you're mid-flow. So I built YOYO — a lightweight version control layer for the fast, chaotic phase of coding where you're exploring, iterating, and letting AI throw stuff at your repo. It works across Cursor, Windsurf, and VSCode — wherever you’re coding with AI right now. Not trying to replace Git. Git’s great when you’re ready 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…

Vibe coded app that enables developers to quickly create so called "rules for AI" used by tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor and Windsurf, through an interactive, visual interface.

Hi HN, I've been waiting to post what I've been working on for a few weeks now:) Today we're launching LayerVault, which is a version control system made for designers. The URL is http://www.layervault.com LayerVault keeps track of what you're working on without adding extra steps to your process. The app runs in your toolbar and tracks changes you make to your files. Basically — each time you create or modify a file you’re working on, LayerVault saves a copy. You can then login, flip through its versions, and download a version from a few weeks ago. It's pretty neat — and we’ve built some…

I built SpecMind, an open source developer tool for spec driven vibe coding. It keeps architecture and implementation aligned from the first commit instead of letting them drift apart. With AI assistants writing more of our code, projects move faster but architectural consistency is often lost. Each developer or AI can introduce new patterns, and after a few sprints, the structure becomes fragmented. SpecMind helps prevent that by generating and maintaining living architecture specs directly from your code. It works in three steps: 1. analyze – scans your codebase and generates…

If you are concerned about AI replacing your coding job, fear not! Just level up and get very good at vibecoding. "Vibe coding is the art of leveraging AI tools to their fullest potential in software development, creating a seamless fusion between human creativity and machine intelligence. It represents a paradigm shift where developers orchestrate AI systems rather than writing every line manually." The big tools out there are cursor, cline, aider, and Claude Code. https://andrewarrow.dev/ This site was made with Claude Code from just 1 prompt. Go ahead and register and give…

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…

I've been using Cursor, Co-Pilot, ChatGPT, Claude and what not since quite some time now, and we are at a stage where we can just "vibe code" whole apps from idea to execution in a few prompts. I tried this personally to create some side projects that solved little problems for me. But I always got stuck at a point where it just goes into an infinite loop of issues and can't solve the issue by itself. Well I'm a developer, so it's easier for me to dive into the code and solve the problem myself, but that would take a hell lot of time to understand all the code AI wrote for me. If I keep…

Hi HN! I've never posted anything on here before, but this project was too fun to pass up. I've been learning a lot about agents lately, and wanted to see if I could replicate some of the results of Windsurf and Cursor. Generally I love these tools, but when you're stuck behind an "enterprise" firewall, they don't work as well. This sad state of affairs motivated me to understand SWE agents more. Does it work? Yes. Is it as good as Cursor and Windsurf? Not quite, but it's pretty darn close, depending on the model you use. I'm lacking a few features like semantic indexing, MCP support, but…
