Fire CI – Local CI server for GitHub with peer-to-peer option for teams

Hi HN! I'm Jean-Paul, the creator of Fire CI (https://fire.ci). I've been a dev for 10 years and building Fire CI for the past 6 months. Fire CI is a server that runs local builds in Docker on your own computer. It uses an installable agent to broker the builds with GitHub and also co-ordinates builds between your local server and other members of your team (optional). It's fast because there is no queueing and a tiny piece of your computer is more powerful than most hosted or rented cloud servers. It's scalable by design: each developer brings his own computing power. And IMHO the…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi HN! I'm Jean-Paul, the creator of Fire CI (https://fire.ci). I've been a dev for 10 years and building Fire CI for the past 6 months. Fire CI is a server that runs local builds in Docker on your own computer. It uses an installable agent to broker the builds with GitHub and also co-ordinates builds between your local server and other members of your team (optional). It's fast because there is no queueing and a tiny piece of your computer is more powerful than most hosted or rented cloud servers. It's scalable by design: each developer brings his own computing power. And IMHO the experience is better: the build is local so you get logs and results as fast as it gets. It's also fully integrated to GitHub so build statuses and logs are also available there (almost in real time). I've been testing Fire CI for a few months with some amazing beta users. I've applied the incredibly helpful feedback I've got and made a ton of improvements and additions. Today is launch day! (but still in beta!) I'd love to hear your thoughts and answer any questions you may have. Drop a line here or at [email protected].

  • 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…
