Antifailure

A disposable copy of your production stack for every pull request: masked Postgres, contained third-party APIs, and agents that use your app like people.

What it does

Antifailure builds a throwaway copy of your production stack for each branch: the real schema and data volume with every identifier masked and the masking proved, a network the app cannot escape, and agents that use it like people. Your change runs there first, it tells you what would have broken, and then the copy deletes itself. MIT licensed, one command, no account.

The engine is open source and runs in your own continuous integration today, with no account. The hosted control plane is open: sign in with GitHub and connect a repository. Isolated Twin . A temporary copy of the application stack for every risky change. Safe State . Sanitized, referentially consistent, production-shaped Postgres. Side-Effect Firewall . A stateful Stripe and captured mail instead of charging cards. Load . Traffic shaped like production's own access log, sent at the twin. Migration Safety . Locks, table rewrites, and query plans before it ships. Antifailure makes a copy of production, the same size and the same shape and the same load, with every real name replaced.

    We built an AI to review your pull requests2025 · infinitcode.ai · ▲53

    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…

    VeilStream – prod-like data without the PII2025 · app.veilstream.com · ▲22

    # TL;DR We built VeilStream, a drop-in, read-only PostgreSQL proxy that strips, masks, or anonymizes sensitive values as queries stream through. In less than two minutes, you can put a proxy in front of a PostgreSQL database, whether hosted on your laptop, Neon, Supabase, or a cloud provider, and the user is able to start configuring filter rules. The use cases we're trying to solve are: - Production-like data in development environments - Improve incident handling by masking all data that is not relevant - Share a subset of your data - Protecting data being shipped into a data lake - Safe…

    Control Claude permissions using a cloud-based decision table UIJan 2026 · github.com · ▲14

    We’ve been building visual rule engines (clear spreadsheet interfaces -> API endpoints that map incoming data to a large number of potential outcomes), and had the fun idea lately to see what happens when we use our decision table UI with Claude’s PreToolUse hook. The result is a surprisingly useful policy/gating layer– these tables let your team: - Write conditional, exception-friendly policies beyond globs/prefixes (e.g. allow rm -rf only in */node_modules/*, deny / or $HOME, ask if --force or network call; gate kubectl delete / SQL DROP with a clear reason) -…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
