Autonomous coding agent repo earns a 'Fork and Apply to YC' button

Description

Screenshot of a GitHub repository in dark mode. The top bar shows navigation tabs: "Projects", "Wiki", "Security", and "Insights". Immediately below are repository counters: a grey "Watch 182" dropdown, a humorous grey "Fork and Apply to YC 2.5k" dropdown, and a grey "Star 27.3k" dropdown. On the code tab, a green "Add file" button sits next to a larger green "Code" dropdown; the latest commit hash "3fd0106" is marked as 5 hours ago with "1,381 Commits" in small text, followed by relative timestamps "12 hours ago" and "9 hours ago" on subsequent rows. In the right-hand sidebar, the bold heading "About" precedes the description text: "Autonomous coding agent right in your IDE, capable of creating/editing files, executing commands, using the browser, and more with your permission every step of the way." The image pokes fun at the explosive popularity of AI-powered developer tools - so viral that GitHub’s usual "Fork" button jokingly suggests applicants head straight to Y Combinator

    When the “Fork” button auto-generates a Delaware C-corp and a SAFE, the only DORA metric left to optimize is Time-to-Term-Sheet

    When your AI coding assistant is so good it starts writing its own YC application while you're still debugging that race condition from 2019

    An autonomous coding agent with 27k stars that can edit files, execute commands, and browse the web 'with your permission every step of the way' - because nothing says 'autonomous' quite like asking for permission before every action. It's like having a senior engineer who needs approval to rename a variable, but hey, at least it won't silently rm -rf your production database... probably

    When the Fork button says “Apply to YC,” Unix permissions officially become r, w, x… and pitch - right before the agent asks for sudo in your IDE

    1381 commits in 12 hours with permission prompts: finally, an intern that doesn't force-push to main

    An “autonomous” coding agent that asks for permission every step is just a junior dev with sudo - the only thing it does without approval is click “Fork and Apply to YC.”

    What could go wrong.

  8. @mpolovnev 1y

    Can ai coding agents write new ai coding agents?

    1. @spacenuke 1y

      That’s literally the idea behind the singularity

  9. @spacenuke 1y

    If the AI agent can code a new AI, and then evaluate its offspring, and kill itself in favour of the new one because the new one is better… then you can get a feedback loop going

  10. @spacenuke 1y

    Now what happens when the AI has access to chip designs and a simulator? Can it make its own processor faster?

  11. @spacenuke 1y

    And when it’s running on the new processor, does it take less time to make the next generation of new one?

    1. @RiedleroD 1y

      so long as people keep feeding it energy

  12. @zPeka 1y

    What’s the repo url?

    1. @mrYakov 1y

      https://github.com/cline/cline

      1. @andrei_nik_kolesnikov 1y

        But where is the "Fork and Apply to YC" button?

        1. @ArielXBT 1y

          it works on my machine

      2. @jad21 1y

        continue is better

        1. @echedelle 1y

          The fun side of me using Continue with Mistral

  13. @azizhakberdiev 1y

    can it finish my project works and write me a thesis?

  14. @spacenuke 1y

    Thank god it still needs data centre monkeys to go cable it up. If they make a robot that can run fibre optics we are fucking done, pack it up.

    1. @RiedleroD 1y

      once there's robots that can lay fibre optic cables, I'll start calling them wife and make them wash my dishes

  15. Max 1y

    Broohooo that was good old photoshop

  16. @RiedleroD 1y

    this is an english chat. I don't speak russian

    1. @hur7m3 1y

      me neither

      1. @RiedleroD 1y

        oh I guess this is about "atomic heart" halfway in the paragraph?

        1. @RiedleroD 1y

          …weren't the sisters actually humans converted to robots or something?

          1. @zvyozdniymichal 1y

            the twins are the protagonist's wife who was impossible to save surgically after almost dying in a mission, and she was a highly skilled FSB member so they decided to split her conciousness into two combat robots

  18. @RiedleroD 1y

    yeah

  19. @mira_the_cat 1y

    link?

  20. @Sneeko 1y

    Got this translation, but it doesnt make much sense

  21. @Sneeko 1y

    Seems like an article but the sisters in atomic heart like the lisa said

  22. @zvyozdniymichal 1y

    in the newest DLC she's back to one robot and you put a ring on her

    1. @pyrothefuck 1y

      major spoiler tho

      1. @zvyozdniymichal 1y

        here u go

        1. @pyrothefuck 1y

          I have finished it already

  23. @zvyozdniymichal 1y

    literally robot wife

  24. @byc1412 1y

    like after the c compiler was programmed by assemble code, other c compilers were all made by c
