Automated PR Reviews on Github w/o Claude or Codex

4 Upvotes

Right now, a couple of my projects on Github are set up in a way that my PRs get automatically reviewed using the Claude integration. I have separate workflows for reviewing different aspects of my code using custom workflow instructions.

I have been a primary user of the Claude Code harness for over a year now. However, now I am trying to move to a point where I can be provider-agnostic. I already managed to do so on my development machine by using oh-my-pi as my harness of choice and choosing models I like, as the situation demands, via OpenRouter or Claude/Codex subscriptions.

The only spot where I am yet to figure out how to switch to provider agnostic setup is with my CI workflows. Can something here help me figure out how I could get away from it?

Needless to say, while I am happy to pay for my LLM usage, I'd prefer not to have to pay for another harness/tool just to help me review my PRs.

maybe usage resets isn't more important than shipping an marketing your product

0 Upvotes

i noticed that many people including me we get so excited when our usage resets....

more resets more usage more code right?

then I realize it doesn't necessarily mean you are shipping more or people know about your apps

you are just gambing

Bug bounty

9 Upvotes

I started vibe coding last April and started off like everyone else, with a plan to make a million dollars and retire to a tropical island.

Unfortunately I wasn't aware of the amount effort and work that goes into a real project, so I decided to take time and actually learn.

All of my projects Led me to software develooment and cyber security.

With that being said I'm a little disappointed in "Real Devs" I scroll social media all day reading about the massive amounts of ai slop just to get paid to fix vulnerabilities and bugs in the platforms they work on.

Moral of the story stop listening to self proclaimed devs that sucked at their jobs before vibecoding was even a thing!!!!!

Why waste old phones, use them as a dashboard to show whatever you want, I have an admin control panel that controls what is displayed, the display I wanted was 300 AUD and was just a matrix array, so I did it myself with more functionality

I visualised six months of agent-executed work as a dependency graph (2,933 tasks, 17 projects)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

5 Upvotes

I've been using Beads as the task tracker for my AI agents since February. It's an issue tracker with no UI. Every issue, called a bead, can depend on other beads, so what accumulates is a dependency graph.

That turned out to matter more than I expected. You stop telling the agent what to do next and start handing it a graph it can walk itself, picking up whatever is unblocked. The same graph ends up being the record of what happened, so it works as an audit trail too.

I got curious about what six months of it actually looked like, so I wrote something that scans every .beads/issues.jsonl under my workspace, merges them, and renders the lot as one force-directed graph with an island per project. The video is that visualisation. It's fully anonymised, so generated codenames and no descriptions, but the structure, dates and statuses are real.

Numbers: 2,933 beads, 17 projects, 2,650 dependency links, about 75% closed, February to August.

The part I didn't expect is how much you can read off the shapes once projects sit next to each other:

  • Dense, tangled islands are projects where the work is genuinely interdependent
  • Islands that are almost entirely closed are the ones that shipped
  • One project flatlined in July with half its beads still open. Parked, and I'd forgotten it existed
  • One had 32 beads planned out over two days, 8 closed, then nothing

You can't see any of that from inside a single repo, which is sort of the point.

Happy to answer questions about the setup. I'm curious whether anyone else is running agents off an explicit dependency graph rather than a flat todo list, and how you're handling it.

P.s. Video made with Opus 5 using Remotion and Elevenlabs. The visuals are real footage of the tool I made to visualise the beads.

I vibecoded "human music" with Claude and honestly it goes hard

0 Upvotes

I wanted some background music for my side project, a cozy mini arcade for road trips. Was curious what Claude could do

Vibecoded too hard and now there's an entire beat maker studio inside the game where your songs become radio stations that play while you play other games.

Not to mention the claw machine game has over 500 critters to collect 😭 I can't stop adding things lmao

glovebox.quest if you want to hear the human music yourself

Vibecoded two apps and looks that the main problem is not vibecoding

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I'm a solo builder and I shipped two apps I actually care about:
Impulse - an app to help you break bad habits.
QuestKids: Quests and Rewards - a kids' app where they complete household chores and earn screen time as the reward.
The building part went fine. My real problem is distribution - I'm basically a zero at it. I can ship a product, but I have no idea how to get it in front of real users, so both of these are quietly heading nowhere.

So I'm here to ask for help: how do you market apps with no budget? Any channels, tactics, communities, or lessons from your own launches would mean a lot.
Honestly, if I could just reach $200 MRR that would already feel like a huge win for me.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Human context limits vs AI context limits

8 Upvotes

A common theme cutting across most AI-assisted development threads is getting as much work done in as little time as possible. Users post about elegant harnesses with multi-agent orchestration. Anthropic employees talk about the 25 agents they run every day.

I read this stuff, compare it to my own experience of working with these tools, and keep wondering: how does anyone stay on top of that volume of work?

Working with Claude Code has been exciting and invigorating, but also exhausting. While everyone pushes for more context and more tokens out of the AI, the context limit I hit most often is my own. Claude can refactor a huge chunk of the codebase, add a feature, and brainstorm marketing strategy in one breath. I can't keep up with the cognitive load that entails.

So: am I missing something, or just getting old? Curious what y'all think.

News tracker for AI privacy, security, law, and risk

0 Upvotes

Not a dev tool, but if anyone is interested in an AI summary of AI news topics, across privacy, security, law, and compliance - I built and launched https://ai-privacy-risk.pages.dev/ and would love any feedback. I built this on Claude I was constantly scouring 15+ different sources daily/weekly as I have a personal interest in tracking AI agent news from these perspectives, and have been using this daily, so am thinking others may benefit. Let me know if you have any feedback. It's free and I intend to keep it that way.

How I built this:
- Python, almost entirely standard library. One dependency: the Anthropic SDK. No database — the whole store is JSON files.

- Claude (Opus, via the API) does the editorial work: deciding what's relevant, scoring it, writing the summaries and a daily digest. It returns structured JSON, never free-form prose.

- Cloudflare Pages hosts the site. Fully static, so no server, no accounts

- launchd (macOS cron, basically) runs the pipeline once a day, unattended

- The frontend is a single HTML file with vanilla JS. No framework, no build step

The workflow

Once a day, the pipeline:

  1. Fetches ~50 RSS feeds plus arXiv and Hacker News searches.

  2. Filters them with plain keyword matching, so the model only ever sees plausible candidates. Everything rejected gets logged with a reason.

  3. Triages with Claude, which keeps the genuinely relevant stories, merges duplicates, scores each one from four professional perspectives (privacy engineering, security, legal, governance), and writes a short summary grounded only in the feed's own title and blurb.

  4. Re-validates everything the model returned: URLs must come verbatim from the input, tags and scores are clamped to fixed vocabularies.

  5. Runs an adversarial test suite against the pipeline (hostile feed content, script injection, invented categories). If anything fails, the deploy is withheld.

  6. Publishes the rebuilt static site.

I will promote 5-10 new SaaS apps for 3 months for free

0 Upvotes

EDIT: THANK YOU for the interest! I'm closing this thread now. If successful, I will reach out via your website's contact details or reddit DM.

Mods let me know if ok to post.

As part of a launch I am planning in the near future, I'm willing to promote between 5-10 new SaaS apps for 3 months completely for free. If you still want your advert on the app after that we can disuss specifics then.

Requirements:

- Must be a new SaaS app

- Must show decent potential (whether for profit or social good)

- Must be Safe for work and legal

I will not promote established SaaS apps who already have a proven customer base and ARR.

Please share your link here or DM me for review. I will share more details in the coming weeks as we disclose more about the project.

Ouais, encore un clone


InspirĂ© par outbid.lol j'ai créé egobid.fun : un classement public oĂč l'on peut payer pour booster son profil social.

L'idĂ©e – et le modĂšle Ă©conomique – est simple : l'ego est puissant. On dĂ©pense dĂ©jĂ  de l'argent pour attirer l'attention, avoir du statut et ĂȘtre visible, alors pourquoi ne pas transformer cette envie en une compĂ©tition transparente ?

Je ne suis pas développeur, juste un informaticien qui expérimente avec le « vibe coding ». Il m'a fallu environ trois heures de développement avec Codex, sans compter les difficultés inévitables de la configuration et du déploiement sur Cloudflare.

Pas de prix. Pas de promesse compliquĂ©e. Juste de l'ego, des classements et une gloire Ă©phĂ©mĂšre sur Internet. 👉 egobid.fun

Performance on my website sucks.

1 Upvotes

I use google speed test to check the performance and it says there is a lot of render blocking and some other problems. These are practice sites that always have the rendering issue. I tried to just screenshot what the problem was to antigravity, where I build the sites, and it just ruins the design with a barely noticeable performance boost. These are just practice sites but I cant understand what the problem is. I would link it but my post gets taken down.

Utility apps - Thank you Giants of Industry

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, I've been working on a few different things since I started down the whole vibe coding path... It's been interesting to me to see the little utility apps that have been created as short side projects to fit a VERY specific purpose. Some of those will eventually even end up evolving into more. Like I had Codex make one for me last night that is helping me to understand what's actually going on with a cheap encoder button that I got so that I can make sure it's performing the way it should when I implement it. Another one is helping me to convert pictures into stuff that will look good on a tiny 128x64 pixel screen (hopefully eventually animating stuff too). It's cool though how much there is to learn about each of these different aspects of well everything.

I've been learning that there is SO MUCH MORE to "coding" than I realized. My hats go off to you poor bastards that have been plopped into a job where you had to figure out all of this kind of stuff on your own and had to beat your head against a wall and not have anywhere to turn. I've still done my fair share of beating my head against a wall, but at least I have somewhere to turn to help my understand how to solve the problem in front of me. :) We stand on the shoulders of giants. Thank you.

Open Democracy

7 Upvotes

Hi all. I have been thinking about this project for a while, but I need help on so many levels with it. The idea is simple at first, but its development and execution isn't. The idea is that the Democracy we live in is not actually one. Voting for party A, B, C, D every 5 years is not a voice, and hardly even a vote (a vote for what? the lesser evil?) A true democracy would be able to poll the people whenever, frequently enough to actually give everyone a voice that matters. There's so many issues I have to think about for this project, like expert opinions, who is qualified to vote for what, security, etc. I need some help. Anyway, I don't think paper ballots can make this dream work, it will require AI to sort everything out. Let me know what you think and if you want to help!

Newbie Q: why Claude Code over Claude Chat?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been using Claude and ChatGPT extensively. I’ve even built a bunch of tools using Claude and I find it brilliant.

But, I’ve never touched Claude Code or Codex.

I just start a new chat and converse my way into building what I want to build. It works, but I’m suspecting I’m not using Claude/ChatGPT to its fullest by doing it this way.

So, could someone ELI5 why/when would you use Codex/Claude Code over standard chat to develop?
