Very cool, thanks. I like that the overlay seems to look quite similar to webflow / google chrome dev tools which I think both have a great user interface.

For me it mostly is the same experience. Of course it is possible to steer AI a bit by writing rules for it to follow. But in the end, I'd never go live with a purely vibecoded app as of now, not only because it will be a maintenance hell but also due to its security issues which still occur a lot too.

Looks very promising, one more star from me! What looks a bit odd is the React component being kebab-case instead of typical CamelCase.

I'm sure there are much more submitted apps due to vibecoding and it being kind of a hype right now. I see your point and can also imagine that Apple will change to e.g. AI reviews. But in long term I'd expect the current wave of new submissions to flatten out and Apple might also just hire some more reviewers instead of automating the process. I mean they will also earn more money due to new developer fees and in-app-purchases, so there might not be any need at all to potentially lowering the quality of their review process.

Looks interesting and I didn't know about bippy before. Would be helpful if you could add some screenshots or even a screenrecording to the README or add a demo link?

Are we sure this actually is originating from MS Copilot itself? Technically I believe it would be possible to smuggle ads into PRs using prompt injection too.

I like the idea of promoting honest feedback on AI-generated content socially. My experience, especially on LinkedIn, is not only that it might be some sort of social taboo to do so, but also that the algorithm kind of hinders it: if you post something and you get comments from people obviously using AI bots to comment on other posts, you could either ignore it and tell the person, or just accept the fact that it probably is AI-written and still write an answer as if it were not. The issue with the algorithm is that it rewards the latter.
