I kept showing up to therapy and blanking. The session would end and everything I actually wanted to talk about would come flooding back on the drive home.

So I built Prelude. Free forever. No ads, no in-app purchases. A charity project for the mental health community.

Before your session a voice agent has a conversation with you. Not journaling, not prompts. An actual back and forth that helps you figure out what is really on your mind. Then a second agent generates a structured brief you bring into the room.

My therapist and I browse through it together at the start of each session. Her words were that it improved the quality of our sessions. We had all the topics listed clearly and could just get into it.

There is also a weekly emotional trend graph so you can track how you are doing over time.

The whole thing runs on device. No cloud, no third party APIs, nothing leaves your phone. For something this personal that felt non-negotiable. Pls share with any therapy goers that may need it, I will appreciate some feedback or feature requests. Thanks

Looking for feedback on my website

I’ve been working on a website for a product called QuickProof and would really appreciate some honest feedback.

Here’s the link: https://www.quickproof.ai/ 

It still feels a bit rough in terms of layout and clarity, so open to suggestions on design, structure, or anything that stands out. If you’re a designer/developer and your ideas resonate, I’d be open to connecting and working together to improve it

Anthropic officially launched 13+ FREE AI courses with certificates (Including Agentic AI and Claude Code!)

Just found out about this and had to share because almost nobody is talking about it yet.

If you are tired of paying for AI courses or getting hit with paywalls just to get a certificate, Anthropic (the creators of Claude) quietly dropped a massive library of completely free, official training modules.

Yes, they actually give you an official certificate of completion directly from Anthropic once you finish.

Here is the breakdown of what is available and exactly how to get it without spending a dime.

What is in the course catalog?

They have split the training into a few different paths depending on what you want to do:

  • The Big Surprise: Agentic AI & MCP: They have official courses on the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This is the cutting-edge tech used to build AI Agents that can browse your local computer, use tools, and execute tasks autonomously.
  • Claude Code 101: Dedicated developer modules for their new command-line agent. It teaches you how to let Claude edit your codebase, run tests, and use its new "Plan Mode."
  • API & Cloud Architecture: Deep dives into building with the Claude API, plus corporate tracks for deploying Claude securely inside Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud Vertex AI.
  • Everyday Productivity: If you aren't a coder, they have "Claude 101" and "AI Fluency" tracks. These teach advanced prompting, managing Projects, and using Artifacts for daily work.

How to access it for free

Anthropic hosts these courses on their official training academy platform (built on Skilljar). Because I can't post direct links here, here is how you find it:

  1. Search Google for "Anthropic Skilljar Academy" or "Anthropic Skilljar Catalog".
  2. Click the official link pointing to the Anthropic Skilljar domain.
  3. Sign up for a free account. You do not need to enter any credit card info.
  4. Choose your track, complete the lessons, pass the quick review quizzes, and download your certificate.

Go grab these before they decide to gate them behind a paywall!

I got tired of surprise OpenAI bills so I built a 2-line firewall for AI agents

My AI agent ran a loop overnight and billed me way more than expected.

So I built a small library that wraps your OpenAI client and blocks

calls before they happen if they'd exceed your budget.

import { guard } from '@salimassili/ai-costguard'

const ai = guard(openai, { budget: 10 })

That's it. It also detects loops and retry spirals.

Free and open source: github.com/salimassili/[https://github.com/salimassili62-afk/ai-costguard\]

npm: npmjs.com/package/@salimassili/ai-costguard

Would love feedback from anyone building AI agents.

Criticise the IDea - You can be harsh !

Do you know that feeling after an amazing party, a concert, a protest, a sports event, or a spontaneous adventure?

You get home, still buzzing from the music, conversations, and people you met — but just a few days later, so many memories start to fade. Maybe you only took two photos yourself. Maybe someone else recorded a great video, but you never get to see it.

This exact feeling is what inspired my idea.

I’m building a website where every event gets its own dedicated page. Participants can upload photos and videos, comment, and keep all the shared memories in one place.

You can discover events happening in cities, join them, and also create new ones — whether it’s parties, concerts, sports events, demonstrations, markets, or community meetups.

I’d love to hear your feedback. How stupid the idea is ?

Hello! 👋

We launched a free and open-source project for developers: DevGlobe 🌍

The idea: while you're coding, you appear on a globe so you can:

  • Track your coding stats (per repo, per file, per branch, per language) with real insights into your patterns
  • List your projects (open source, side projects, or startups)
  • Build a public dev profile (stats + projects + activity, ready to share like this)
  • Motivate yourself to code (goals, badges, private leaderboards with friends)

Already using WakaTime? The endpoint is WakaTime-Compatible, just point your existing client at it and you'll appear on the globe with no new extension needed.

Privacy first:

  • Anonymous mode → a random city in your country
  • Standard mode → only your city is shown (never your exact location)
  • Private mode → completely off the globe (if you just want the stats, goals, leaderboards, or to showcase your projects)

100% free

100% open source

Your personal data and your code are never sent to the backend

🌍 The Globe: https://devglobe.xyz/space

💻 Source code: https://github.com/Nako0/devglobe-extension

📦 Marketplace: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=DevGlobe.devglobe

If you are interested or have any questions, everything is explained on the website, but don't hesitate to ask, I will be happy to answer your questions!

Finally. Like Minded People

Since posting my vibe-coded app in general population and getting roasted it's great to find a safe place where people can show the world what they've created without the hate.

Definitely my favorite place in Reddit

I built a free CLI that scans your vibe-coded project locally before you ship it. No sign up, no GitHub, nothing leaves your machine.

I kept seeing people hesitant to share their code for security scans so I made the whole thing run locally.

npx should-i-ship scan

It checks for missing auth, rate limiting gaps, exposed secrets, input validation issues, dangerous functions, and general launch blockers. You get your top 3 findings with full detail for free.

So far across scans I’ve been running, 40% of projects had hardcoded credentials, 40% had zero rate limiting on API endpoints, and 40% had routes with no auth at all. These aren’t edge cases. They keep showing up.

If you want the complete report with every finding, exact files, and fix prompts, that’s $10. Still no account needed. Findings get uploaded (never source code), you get a link, you pay, you see everything.

If you have Semgrep or OSV installed locally it’ll run those too for deeper security and dependency checks. I’d recommend it if you’re serious about shipping something to prod.

Almost at 1k npm downloads in about two weeks. Just want to help people catch this stuff before their users do.

BoneScript, a new opensource Compiler for complete backend development

I developed an LSP, VS-Code extension and NPM package, please try it out and give me your thoughts!

My vibecoded app never made it to the App Store

Last year I saw that a lot of people were making great money building and marketing iOS apps and with no code tools I felt like I could give it a shot.

I spent around 4 weeks going back and forth with a no code tool until I had an app that was happy with. Studied onboarding flows, knew exactly how i was going to market it & was super pumped.

Then it was time to submit...

The tool I was using promised "One-click to App Store", but only got me to TestFlight.

I felt lied to and was left having to figure out the submission process myself until I eventually gave up.

My app never reached the app store and I never got to share it with the world.

It was while I was struggling with submission that I thought a better solution was needed. Something that could automate the submission process and make it as easy as it was to prompt the coding tool used to make the app.

After doing some research & talking with some more experienced devs, I realized that the App store rejections are a real problem too. The avg new app gets rejected 3.5 times before it sees the App Store, and each rejection means days of delays until launch.

I decided to fix this.

I built a tool called Tminus. It automates the entire app submission process, generates metadata and policies, submits it for review, and soon it will be able to automatically handle rejections so you never have to deal with the Apple review team again.

Let me know, is this something you'd use?

Convergence Mechanisms: Confidence in the Age of Agentic Engineering

A useful agentic change does not end when the diff appears. It ends when the system is coherent again.

I watched this exact loop last month: we asked an agent to tighten signup validation. It updated the form, the server-side validator, even the e2e test. Green across the board. We shipped. Two minutes later realized the password reset was broken.

A software change is not merely code moving. It is a shift in the requirement set.
There's a gap between the physical system (code, tests, schemas, diffs) and the theoretical system (requirements, contracts, constraints). Agents edit the former. We care about the latter.

When those two layers drift apart, an agent can satisfy the explicit task while breaking an implicit requirement nobody named and no automated check protects.

This post is my attempt to reason about that gap, and how to structure an agentic engineering harness around requirements, contracts, and deterministic feedback loops instead of just writing longer instruction files.

If you're interested, give it a read. If not, maybe let me know what I could do better!

Appreciate any feedback, and happy to partake in discussions :)

I’ve put together a small CVE proof-of-concept search tool:

The idea is simple: search public repositories and references that appear to contain proof-of-concept exploit material, indexed by CVE identifier.

You can search by an exact CVE ID, for example:

CVE-2021-44228

Or use a partial string/vendor keyword to find related results.

Current index:

7,466 CVEs

This is not a vulnerability scanner, exploit database, exploit marketplace, or “AI cyber threat intelligence” dashboard.

It is a lightweight lookup layer for quickly checking what public PoC material appears to exist around a vulnerability and which references are associated with it.

The public tier is deliberately limited:

  • 3 searches per day
  • 3 results per query
  • email submission for extended access / whitelist

The intended use case is research, triage, defensive validation, and quick visibility into public PoC exposure.

I’m keeping it narrow on purpose. No magic scoring. No fake certainty. No pretending that the presence of public PoC material automatically means a system is exploitable.

Just indexed public references by CVE, with the limitations kept visible.

Feedback welcome, especially around:

  • search behaviour
  • useful filters
  • false positives
  • reference quality signals
  • whether vendor/keyword lookup is useful or too noisy

What’s missing from AI coding tools? Backend safety.

How important are these backend features to you?

  • Sign-up policy controls (ex: only company emails allowed)
  • Role-based access control
  • Automatic login-user data isolation (prevent users from seeing other users’ records)
  • Data intent / semantic metadata (AI understands what fields are actually for)

Feels like AI coding tools can generate UI fast, but backend safety/governance is still painful.

Curious whether people see this as a real problem or just overengineering.

I got tired of guessing what to build — so I built Pain Radar

A few months ago I realized the hardest part of building solo wasn't lack of ideas.

It was knowing which ideas were real.

Every "AI startup idea generator" I tried gave me plausible-sounding ideas with fake source links. Made-up "users" who don't exist. Fabricated Reddit threads. Vendor blog posts being cited as proof of demand.

I wasn't validating anything. I was just generating slop.

So I built something different.

Pain Radar pulls real founder problems from Hacker News, GitHub Issues, Stack Exchange, and Lobsters. Every idea links back to the actual person describing the problem in their own words. The AI doesn't generate ideas — it clusters real human posts retrieved from official platform APIs. Every source is clickable and verifiable.

Last week it surfaced a card about helping computing instructors integrate AI into their curricula. The source was a real Hacker News post from a University of Illinois CS professor describing exactly that pain, in his own words, written a week earlier.

That's the point. No fabricated evidence. No AI hallucination. Just real people whose problems you could literally cold-email tomorrow.

Free to try at https://ignytes.today

What's the hardest part of validation for you right now — finding real users to talk to, or knowing if the idea is even worth pursuing?
