Appreciate this! Do you feel it lacking context of your team’s tribal knowledge, best practices, or finding yourself prompting extra? Would a system with rich context of your teams docs, meetings, code, decisions, etc be helpful?

Show HN: Ducky – AI for the thinking parts of engineering

adiadd — Sat, 27 Dec 2025 11:28:19 +0000

hi hn!

i’m experimenting with an ai “rubber duck” idea that helps engineers think through bugs and design decisions by asking questions instead of spitting out code. this is an early prototype and i’m trying to validate whether ai tools are hurting code understanding.

most ai software engineering assistants like cursor and claude code focus on the implementation details/results but don’t help teams upskill or build in a reliable manner.

would love to get any feedback and thoughts!

It's tough to compete in a market like social networks, you need mass adoption for high value. Although this looks cool, I'm interested to see how it differs specifically to provide more value than Discord already does (ton of people, various servers, great integrations, etc.)
