LucidShark - Quality pipeline for AI coding agents

Hi HN, I built LucidShark: a local-first, open-source CLI tool that acts as a quality & security pipeline. It can be used to increase the confidence in AI-generated (or AI-assisted) code. - Config lives as code in version-controlled lucidshark.yml - 100% local; no cloud, no SaaS - Runs 10 quality domains automatically: linting, formatting, type checking, SAST/security scanning, SCA/dependency checks, IaC validation, container scanning, unit tests, coverage thresholds, code duplication, etc. - Produces a QUALITY.md dashboard with health scores (e.g. 9.1/10), trends, and issue…

LucidShark - Quality pipeline for AI coding agents launched on March 18, 2026 with 9 votes, #1,237 of 23,380 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

    Hello all, I created QUALITY.md to help build a holistic quality evaluation process for my projects. Turns out it's also ideal for loop engineering. I'm hoping this provides a valuable contribution to the conversation around quality and craft and having AI help us in the effort. I hope to shift the mindset from a reactive/review/repair mindset to a proactive care mindset. Give it a go. I look forward to your thoughts/comments/feedback!

    CodeLeash: framework for quality agent development, NOT an orchestratorFeb 2026 · codeleash.dev · ▲12

    Hi HN, I built my first project using an LLM in mid-2024. I've been excited ever since. But of course, at some point it all turns into a mess. You see, software is an intricate interwoven collection of tiny details. Good software gets many details right; and does not regress as it gains functionality. My bootstrapped startup, ApprovIQ (https://approviq.com) is trying to break into a mature market with multiple fully featured competitors. I need to get the details right: MVP quality won't sell. So I opted for Test-Driven Development, the classic red/green/refactor. Writing…

    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…
