What have you been working on lately?

Athreya aka Maneshwar on May 16, 2026

Hi community! Would love to talk and get to know what you are working on right now

Could be:

a startup or a side project

  • open-source tool
  • article
  • random idea that accidentally became serious or maybe you started new course or learned something new

I’ll go first.

I'm currently working on git-lrc.

It runs AI-powered micro code reviews at commit time not after PR is raised, and is freely available as source-available code on GitHub.

It recently hit #3 Product of the Day on Product Hunt, and which was a huge push from the PH & dev.to community.

The goal is simple: make AI code review engineer-centric and accessible to every developer.

git-lrc just hit 1k stars today!

Would love your support, star, fork, feedback on git-lrc :)

Lately I’ve been spending most of my free time working on a small open-source ASP.NET Core tool called DebugProbe.

Right now I’m mostly adding new features, improving the overall architecture, writing better documentation, and learning how to build an open-source project that people actually want to contribute to.

Here’s a small preview 👇

Currently building Baar-Core — a budget-aware routing engine for AI agents and LLM applications.
It intelligently routes tasks between cheaper and more capable models based on complexity, while enforcing a hard spending limit so agents can’t accidentally burn through API budgets.
One thing I’m excited about is the zero-call financial kill-switch — if the next request would exceed the remaining budget, it blocks locally before any provider call is made.

Still early, but seeing the first GitHub stars and developer interest come in has been pretty motivating

You can try listing your project in GSSOC/ Discord/ Reddit

Hey! I'm working on Azertio, an open-source API and database testing tool for Java teams.

The core idea: you shouldn't need to write glue code to test REST APIs or databases. You declare plugins in a YAML file, write .feature files (Gherkin), and run — no pom.xml, no step definition classes, no boilerplate.

A few things that make it a bit different from Cucumber or Karate:

  • The rest and db plugins cover most testing scenarios out of the box — REST calls, JSON/XML assertions, SQL queries, CSV/Excel fixtures
  • Benchmark mode is built in — you can assert P95 latency SLAs in the same .feature file as your functional tests, no Gatling needed
  • It has a two-level scenario model (definition + implementation) that lets business stakeholders own the test specification while engineers own the execution — without mixing them in the same file
  • Execution history is persisted (locally or in PostgreSQL), and there's a VS Code extension to browse and re-run past executions

Still early alpha, but the core is functional. Would love feedback from anyone who has suffered through a large Cucumber codebase 😄

Nice, I hope your repo reaches a true Java dev and they give you proper feedback :)

Hey! I've been building AgentGuard — a background daemon that watches what AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, aider) do to your files while they work.
The trigger was running Claude Code remotely from my phone and coming back to find it had modified files I didn't expect — .env overwrites, unexpected deletions, that kind of thing.
It watches your filesystem, logs everything to an audit trail, and sends Telegram alerts with Keep/Rollback buttons when something sensitive changes. You can also install it as a permanent system daemon so it's always watching, even when you're not at the machine.
Just published it on npm this week: npm install -g agentguard-dev
Still early — nobody's really used it except me — so brutal feedback is very welcome! 🙏
