What it does

Use AI anywhere in your codebase — frontend, backend, microservices, infra. Hosted or self-hosted, your call. Open it to your team and your clients without giving up control.

What used to take a sprint now takes lunch. staff.rip lets designers, PMs, and your clients ship changes in plain language — while you stay in charge of what AI can touch and where it runs.

staff.rip lets the people closest to the work — designers, PMs, your clients — describe a change in plain language and ship it. You stay in charge of what AI can touch and where it runs. Hosted AI tools have great UI, but your codebase ends up on someone else's infrastructure. Local AI CLIs let you keep everything, but only your engineers can drive them — your designers, PMs, and clients are still filing tickets and waiting. staff.rip sits in the middle: AI runs in the environment you already control , but the people who need it most get a chat-first interface they can actually use. Code stays on the machine running the agent — local by design, even on the hosted path. Your team — and your…from staff.rip

    AI changed the way we code, but we're still using the old processes, and we've become the bottleneck, the AI is waiting for us - to reply, to open our laptops, to review the code, and so on. We're building the future of AI software development. The agents are autonomous, they run in sandboxes, automatically fix the pipelines, and deliver you the final, working code. You can use live preview to see the changes they made. Working across multiple repositories, all within the same session. This is the future - you don't need an IDE, and you don't have to run anything locally.

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
