I open-sourced my Twitter Automation platform

Technical writing from a staff AI engineer on AI engineering, RAG pipelines, vector databases, developer tools, and shipping production software.

I open-sourced my Twitter Automation platform launched on August 25, 2017 with 32 votes, #802 of 3,214 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 9 years on.

In plain words

Zack Proser publishes technical writing on AI engineering, RAG pipelines, vector databases, and production software development. The site features tutorials, applied AI field notes, and documentation from building production systems, updated weekly. It includes open-source projects like pt, an agentic terminal built in Go with parallel agent processing, alongside other experimental tools for AI workflows. Content focuses on practical lessons from shipping real systems.

From the sources

Technical tutorials, field notes on applied AI, and developer writing from a long stretch shipping production systems. Updated most weeks. An agentic terminal, a Mermaid fine-tune, and my context engine ctx. The first two failed because I measured them with instruments I built myself. Verification is paramount, and it has to touch the real system. I built pt, an attention-first agentic terminal in Go: durable work contracts, parallel agent lanes with byte-verified delivery, workers on rented orbs. The factory merged nearly 400 PRs in two weeks, and I still couldn't drive my workday through it. This is the blueprint and the retro: what got built, what failed to get traction, the two…from zackproser.com

  • My Attempt to Organize the World of AI Dev Tools2025 · aicode.danvoronov.com · ▲101

    I've been exploring the (not so=) amazing potential of AI in coding and have compiled a list of tools. From AI-powered IDEs to code generators, this resource is my contribution to the community. I'm still on the fence about including txt2sql projects, as their functionality seems too basic to me. And I'm personally maintaining this, so your feedback is wellcome.

    My first full stack project2023 · plotnotes.ai · ▲36

    Just finished my second year at college studying Computer Science, and wanted to try and gain experience as a full stack dev this summer, so I made a website that allows users to create stories using openai's API, using embeddings for custom terms users can define, and create short stories and chapters alike. I'm mainly just looking for some feedback on how I can improve it or make it more presentable, so any help/feedback is welcome and appreciated!

    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…

    143.dev – we open-sourced our internal coding-agent infrastructureJun 2026 · ▲13

    We just open-sourced the internal system we built at Assembled for running coding agents as a team. Coding agents worked well for individual engineers, but the surrounding workflow was a bit of a mess. We generally found that many engineers had different MCP connections and context for their agents, personal automations running that other people couldn’t access, and very little introspection for what a human’s input into the coding agent looked like. So we built an internal system that converted coding agents into shared team infrastructure. The system runs Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and…
