Async – Claude code and Linear and GitHub PRs in one opinionated tool
Hi, I’m Mikkel and I’m building Async, an open-sourced developer tool that combines AI coding with task management and code review. What Async does: - Automatically researches coding tasks, asks clarifying questions, then executes code changes in the cloud - Breaks work into reviewable subtasks with stack diffs for easier code review - Handles the full workflow from issue to merged PR without leaving the app Demo here: https://youtu.be/98k42b8GF4s?si=Azf3FIWAbpsXxk3_ I’ve been working as a developer for over a decade now. I’ve tried all sorts of AI tools out there including…

In plain words
Async is an open-source developer tool that combines AI-assisted coding with task management and code review. It automatically researches coding tasks, asks clarifying questions, and executes code changes in the cloud, then breaks work into reviewable subtasks with stack diffs. The tool handles the complete workflow from issue to merged pull request within a single interface, designed for developers working on mature codebases where changes must be carefully managed and reviewed.

An open-source developer tool that combines AI coding with task management and code review. Async integrates Claude Code + Linear + GitHub PRs into one opinionated workflow. Traditional AI coding tools work great for new projects but struggle with mature codebases where you can't break things. Async solves the common problems: Onboarding & Task Creation : Install the Async GitHub App and select repositories. Async automatically imports open GitHub issues as tasks. Research Phase : New tasks trigger a Google Cloud Run job that clones your repository and runs a research agent. The agent analyzes the codebase and generates clarifying questions. Tasks either auto-execute or wait for your input.…from github.com

Stage – Putting humans back in control of code reviewApr 2026 · stagereview.app · ▲130Hey HN! We're Charles and Dean, and we're building Stage: a code review tool that guides you through reading a PR step by step, instead of piecing together a giant diff. Here's a demo video: https://www.tella.tv/video/stage-demo-1pph. You can play around with some example PRs here: https://stagereview.app/explore. Teams are moving faster than ever with AI these days, but more and more engineers are merging changes that they don't really understand. The bottleneck isn't writing code anymore, it's reviewing it. We're two engineers who got frustrated with…

Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…

I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it. I ended up learning about parametric equations again, and make this visualization to document what I learned: https://visualrambling.space/moving-objects-in-3d/ feel free to visit and let me know what you think!
