TOP LAUNCH

Crush bugs faster

Ellipsis is a YC-backed AI tool that automates bug detection and squashing. It runs as a GitHub bot that automatically performs deep, LLM-powered code reviews, fills in PR descriptions, and can even fix bugs. Once you open a pull request, you will get an AI Code Review. As you write code, Ellipsis will update the summary and review any changes. If a bug pops up, you can squash it with a single click. 

How does it work? When Ellipsis finds a problem, it'll leave a comment on the offending line, just like a human would. Then, you can tag Ellipsis to have it implement the fix. This allows you to write working, tested code right from the GitHub UI. It can catch logical errors, anti-patterns, security issues, spelling & grammar mistakes, documentation drift, and more.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT

Transform your terminal

You’ve probably seen the word Copilot thrown around a lot lately. Since AI burst onto the scene, Copilots — AI agents trained to help or even complete a specific task, have become increasingly popular. Some Copilots fix bugs, write essays, handle spreadsheets, and more. Now, there’s one for the command line. 

Built by a team of designers and developers, including Sam Odio, co-founder and former CEO of Freshplum, ShellMate is a lightweight, open-source app that aims to add superpowers to your Mac Terminal. As Sam puts it, “For developers, everything starts and ends in Terminal.” The last thing you want to do is break focus by heading to Google or ChatGPT for assistance. 

As you hack away, the AI assistant will seamlessly provide dynamic assistance within your Mac Terminal while you keep your flow intact. It works in the background to automatically detect bugs and suggest fixes. You can ask ShellMate questions about your Mac terminal context and quickly highlight specific lines of text to call attention to an issue you need help with. It can even suggest the following command based on the ones you’ve run already. 

The goal is to keep you in the Terminal and keep your concentration flow intact. Instead of jumping between different apps and sites to get assistance, ShellMate offers that assistance in-app.

CAT NIPS

AI

  • Fleak AI lets you build complex model chaining data workflows in minutes with a dynamic API builder.

  • Evidently is an open-source framework to evaluate, test and monitor AI-powered apps.

Back-end and Server-side

  • Web Action SDK makes it easier to create web automations for popular sites like LinkedIn, Amazon, Uber, and more. 

  • Dev Utils is a set of lightweight, client-side developer utilities built for conversion. Being client-side keeps them private, and it comes with cmd+k search.

  • SSOReady is an open-source API platform that devs can use in less than a day to implement SAML single-sign-on, which many companies require. 

DevOps and Productivity

  • Phase is an open source platform for fast-moving engineering teams to secure and deploy application secrets — from development to production.

  • Screen Ruler is a browser extension that lets you quickly measure any element on a size. You can find and extract sizes, distances, margins, and paddings. 

  • Postgres (dot) new from Supabase, lets you instantly spin up an unlimited number of Postgres databases that run directly in your browser.

Until next week
