Show HN: Foremerge – Catch intent conflicts between parallel coding agents

At, GPTree, we run several coding agents across our team on one repo using parallel worktrees. Apart from wasted time reviewing and fixing conflicts at PR time, the failures that hurt the most are when multiple plans or tickets cause architecture changes that cannot both be true. Ex. one agent repla

Show HN: Mini-AGI – Dynamic continual learning model trained on 8GB VRAM

Sorry for the pretentious name, I know, I know.. It just contains all the pieces I would like to see a AGI model to have, and I can't stand the temptation. Before throwing rocks at me, please take a glance at the Readme, and I hope it will cover your mood a little bit. So, first of all it does work

Show HN: Differential – a TUI diff reviewer with semantic grouping

Hi all — for those of you still reviewing code, I built a tool to make that easier, mostly for my own sake. There are some alternatives out there already, but none of them quite checked all the boxes for me, so I made my own. Feedback welcome!

Show HN: A website that tracks US food prices every day

The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) publishes daily food price data for about 290 commodities on: - what growers were paid at shipping point - what buyers paid at the big city wholesale markets - what prices supermarkets advertised in their weekly ads This data comes out as d

Show HN: Accordia – Structured 1-on-1s for engineering managers

Hi everyone, I'm a solo developer in Lincolnshire, UK. I've recently built Accordia. It is a 1-on-1 tool for engineering managers. You build a reusable agenda per report, run the meeting against it, and anything that turns into an action gets tracked and pulled into the next sess

Show HN: I built a camera that you talk with instead of seeing your own face

I used to hate recording myself, but at the same time I also wanted to post more video i.e. on X. My usual experience was: Get an idea -> reluctantly hit record -> become self-aware, stumble, do 8 takes -> give up. So I tried changing the camera instead. MakiRoll doesn't show you
