Provably secure vibe coding is now a thing
Don't get your knickers in a knot. We were surprised too. We are the team behind TideCloak which we shared on HN previously (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42460131). This time we ran an experiment. What happens when you apply a fundamentally different security model to the worst possible development process? Behold...

What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Don't get your knickers in a knot. We were surprised too. We are the team behind TideCloak which we shared on HN previously (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42460131). This time we ran an experiment. What happens when you apply a fundamentally different security model to the worst possible development process? Behold... SecureAF https://secureaf.lovable.app/ Build video 6 mins https://youtu.be/tx5MsJ3jeQw The code and UI are questionable and the quality assurance is non-existent. But the security model holds by treating even us as malicious, keeping authority over data out of reach for everyone except the rightful user. Can you actually use SecureAF? Hell no. We built it in 20 minutes and never tested it. What's wrong with you? What you reckon?

- VLVibecheck – lint for AI-generated code smells (JS/TS/Python)Mar 2026 · github.com · ▲7
I built a CLI that detects patterns AI coding tools leave behind: empty catch blocks, hardcoded secrets, as any everywhere, comments that restate the code, god functions, SQL concatenation. 24 rules across JS/TS and Python. Zero config, runs offline, regex-based so it's fast. npx @yuvrajangadsingh/vibecheck . Also ships as a GitHub Action for inline PR annotations and standalone binaries (no Node required). Why: CodeRabbit found AI-generated PRs have 1.7x more issues than human PRs. Veracode says 45% of AI code samples have security vulnerabilities. "Vibe coding" is everywhere now…

Hi HN! I've never posted anything on here before, but this project was too fun to pass up. I've been learning a lot about agents lately, and wanted to see if I could replicate some of the results of Windsurf and Cursor. Generally I love these tools, but when you're stuck behind an "enterprise" firewall, they don't work as well. This sad state of affairs motivated me to understand SWE agents more. Does it work? Yes. Is it as good as Cursor and Windsurf? Not quite, but it's pretty darn close, depending on the model you use. I'm lacking a few features like semantic indexing, MCP support, but…

I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
