BackMark
Hey HN, I've been coding with Claude and Cursor for over a year now, and I kept running into the same problem: traditional task managers don't fit the AI-assisted workflow. So I built BackMark – a CLI task manager where every task is a plain Markdown file with dedicated spaces for AI collaboration: - ai_plan: where the AI breaks down the approach - ai_notes: context the AI discovers while working - ai_documentation: auto-generated docs - ai_review: AI self-assessment before handoff Why Markdown? Your tasks are just .md files with YAML frontmatter. Git-friendly, future-proof, readable in any…

BackMark transforms plain Markdown files into a powerful task management system designed specifically for "vibe coding" - seamless human-AI collaboration. Unlike traditional tools, BackMark treats AI as a first-class team member with dedicated spaces for planning, documentation, and self-review. Every task is stored as a simplemd file with YAML frontmatter - future-proof, Git-friendly, and completely portable. No databases, no cloud, no vendor lock-in.

TaskShellApr 2026 · taskshell.app · ▲86I initially built this for myself but some folks asked me to open access to it. Let me explain what I built and why. I'm a product designer who transitioned from only designing to building complete software products myself and I found myself using AI coding agents literally every day. I started with cursor, then codex and claude code, then kilo code, and then moved to opencode. The only thing AI agents couldn't get done for me was to keep track of my todos and tasks for all my projects. I ended up vibe coding a todo app separately or using apps like TickTick. The main issue with separate…

VibeShift MCP2025 · github.com · ▲141Hi HN, We are the devs behind VibeShift. We have been building this MCP server to put AI coding assistants in an automatic feedback loop. They code, test, debug, fix everything until we have a fully working, secure code. It tests like a real user, copies network/console and logical errors to give them back to cursor. (1 min demo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bN_RgQGa8B0) We felt this was the natural next step for AI coding assistants. And with new asynchronous assistants like codex, having a plug & play tester makes sure you don't have to spend time debugging and…

Project management system for Claude Code2025 · github.com · ▲175I built a lightweight project management workflow to keep AI-driven development organized. The problem was that context kept disappearing between tasks. With multiple Claude agents running in parallel, I’d lose track of specs, dependencies, and history. External PM tools didn’t help because syncing them with repos always created friction. The solution was to treat GitHub Issues as the database. The "system" is ~50 bash scripts and markdown configs that: - Brainstorm with you to create a markdown PRD, spins up an epic, and decomposes it into tasks and syncs them with GitHub issues - Track…
