That's awesome, it's crazy that we would reach a point where knowing it's fully human-written adds so much value to it

Thanks again!

I hope I didn't get deceived, but this was such a human-non-ai read!! It was wonderful to get to know the history which I would think you wrote yourself!

Much appreciated, thanks for sharing! Really!

It may not qualify as a hack, but I use Soonpatch to paste a slack link and get the bug/improvement solved in the proper repo right away, no matter in which directory I call it

I run Claude Code in cmux with Soonpatch and that's it. I tried looking at Cursor but honestly it wasn't providing any value and I prefer being 100% up to date with CC updates/interface

I'm working on https://soonpatch.com - to paste a slack report message about your code (bug/improvement) in Claude Code and get the fix in the proper repo/worktree right away (you can call it in any CC instance and it'll find the way, no need to navigate through your directories manually)

Yes, I'm trying to know whether there are more people having the issue that I'm solving. Though now that I talk with you, I realized I should have tried to know this beforehand, but I built it because I found it so useful.

But I think my main issue is that I have zero network with other devs, apart from my 2-3 developers in my company. I don't have a way to quickly reach out and find out what devs in general are struggling with, etc. I guess I have to get out there, out of my little company cave :)

Thanks! It sounds so simple, but it takes a lot of work, right?

It's my first time even trying to distribute a product, so I'm kind of a bit bewildered with all the things I have to do manually and get out there.

And by the way, I will subscribe to your tool for HN alerts, as I missed your comment (sorry for that!)

Ask HN: How do you manage distribution after building?

I built a slack message to code-fix app, so that you just paste the slack message and it figures out what repo is it about (down to which specific branch, worktree), providing a fix or hand off prompt at the end.

My goal is to learn about business by actually doing it and got a hard stop, impostor syndrome, at this step of having it almost ready and looking in the wild without knowing how to find if this is really valuable to someone else than me.

I know this is nothing new, but I'd love some human wisdom! What would you do to get unstuck at this point and validate your idea? Or what do you normally do at this point?

ps: this is my shout for help, frustrated after several hours of working through TOS, payments services and all that stuff. Learned a lot but now I look ahead and I'm shocked. So I need to learn what's next

That sounds like the way to go. In terms of reading books (my normal usage of e-ink readers) you don't need 60hz when flipping a page, but it's a must when trying to use an app menu, or using Google Drive for example.

Identifying when to increase the refresh rate may be a challenge but I can see it pretty doable for this kind of "limited" scenarios where you either read or navigate a storage app.

Definitely. For now the "frontier-level" papers (working with repository-level coding maintenance) need to necessarily depend on previously (and statically) generated Code Knowledge Graphs or Snippet-Retrieval systems, which makes the scalable and fast aspects complicated, as any change in the code would represent a change in the graph, hence requiring a rebuild. But given the context limit, you need to rely on Graph queries to give relevant parts and then at the end of the day it just reads snippets instead of the full code, which makes the consistent an issue, as it can't learn from the entirety of the code.

Papers I'm referring to (just some as example, as there're more):

- CodexGraph [https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.03910] - Graph

- Agentless [https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.01489] - Snippet-Retrieval

Considering there's no written html and no server side, how do you deal with SEO? (taking into account the possibility of non-JS agents)

At first glance and on a syntax level, Vue from the start had part of its code in html syntax and the rest on JS. Aberdeen goes fully into JS.

So if I get it right, in Aberdeen there would not be any pure html written at all, right? Is that the "ideal"? Or it would be more of a hybrid with Aberdeen accompanying plain html?
