What it does

Local AI-driven code scanner that validates uncommitted Git changes in real-time. Uses local LLMs (LM Studio, Ollama) to catch bugs, style issues, and architectural violations before you commit. Language-agnostic, privacy-focused, and fully configurable via TOML. Your code never leaves your machine. - ubego/Code-Scanner

  • I made an app to use local AI as daily driver2024 · recurse.chat · ▲637

    Hi Hackers, Excited to share a macOS app I've been working on: https://recurse.chat/ for chatting with local AI. While it's amazing that you can run AI models locally quite easily these days (through llama.cpp / llamafile / ollama / llm CLI etc.), I missed feature complete chat interfaces. Tools like LMStudio are super powerful, but there's a learning curve to it. I'd like to hit a middleground of simplicity and customizability for advanced users. Here's what separates RecurseChat out from similar apps: - UX designed for you to use local AI as a daily driver.…

    Just to clarify the background a bit. This project wasn’t planned as a big standalone release at first. On January 16, Ollama added support for an Anthropic-compatible API, and I was curious how far this could be pushed in practice. I decided to try plugging local Ollama models directly into a Claude Code-style workflow and see if it would actually work end to end. Here is the release note from Ollama that made this possible: https://ollama.com/blog/claude Technically, what I do is pretty straightforward: - Detect which local models are available in Ollama. - When…

    Hi HN, I'm the author of git-lrc, would appreciate some feedback from the community Last year my team started using AI coding tools more heavily, and we found ourselves generating tons of code, but spending less time looking at the stuff that's been generated. We felt like we were losing a bit of grip/understanding of what we were building. Regressions occasionally slipped through. Sometimes changes made it all the way to production only to be reverted later. We tried several AI code review tools, but most operate at PR time. That felt too late. I wanted review to happen while the…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
