FixBugs – Reproduce production bugs and verify fixes

I built FixBugs, an agent that ingests the rich context surrounding production bugs to reproduce them in a sandbox and generate verified fixes. It's available in the form of a self-hosted VSCode extension and as a Github app: VSCode Extension: https://fixbugs.ai/go/vscode-extension - full code and data privacy. - zero data retention models opted out of training. GitHub App: https://fixbugs.ai/go/github-app - we do access your code temporarily. - pick a repo to install FixBugs on. What motivated me to build FixBugs were my years being on-call at Google…

In plain words

FixBugs is an AI agent that analyzes production bugs using their surrounding context to reproduce them in a sandbox environment and generate verified fixes. It offers two deployment options: a self-hosted VSCode extension with full code privacy and zero data retention, or a GitHub app that temporarily accesses code. The tool is designed for developers who need to investigate and resolve production issues more efficiently.

In the maker’s words, at launch

I built FixBugs, an agent that ingests the rich context surrounding production bugs to reproduce them in a sandbox and generate verified fixes. It's available in the form of a self-hosted VSCode extension and as a Github app: VSCode Extension: https://fixbugs.ai/go/vscode-extension - full code and data privacy. - zero data retention models opted out of training. GitHub App: https://fixbugs.ai/go/github-app - we do access your code temporarily. - pick a repo to install FixBugs on. What motivated me to build FixBugs were my years being on-call at Google and VMware. How many hours did I spend gathering logs, traces, reviewing metrics, and reading code only to find that, * Some context was missing. * The bug wasn't reproducible. * The alert was caused by a transient infrastructure issue. Too many. Inefficiency in investigating staging/production bugs has a real cost, and it's paid both by developers and customers. Current capabilities: - Reproduce the bug. - Identify the root cause. - Generate a fix. - Verify the fix. - Review the generated code using multiple AI models to help catch potential regressions. Do try it and let me know what you think! I'd especially love feedback from engineers who work with distributed systems or handle high-volume production bug triage.

  • 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…

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

    A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…
