Show HN: Claude Pilot – Claude Code is powerful. Pilot makes it reliable

Mon, 02/16/2026 - 11:55pm

Start a task, grab a coffee, come back to production-grade code. Tests enforced. Context preserved. Quality automated.

Claude Code moves fast but without structure, it skips tests, loses context, and produces inconsistent results — especially on complex, established codebases. I tried other frameworks — they burned tokens on bloated prompts without adding real value. Some added process without enforcement. Others were prompt templates that Claude ignored when context got tight. None made Claude reliably produce production-grade code.

So I built Pilot. Instead of adding process on top, it bakes quality into every interaction. Linting, formatting, and type checking run as enforced hooks on every edit. TDD is mandatory, not suggested. Context is monitored and preserved across sessions. Every piece of work goes through verification before it's marked done.

Pilot optimizes for output quality, not system complexity. The rules are minimal and focused. There's no big learning curve, no project scaffolding to set up, no state files to manage. You install it in any existing project — no matter how complex — run `pilot`, then `/sync` to learn your codebase, and the quality guardrails are just there — hooks, TDD, type checking, formatting — enforced automatically on every edit, in every session.

The result: you can actually walk away. Start a `/spec` task, approve the plan, then go grab a coffee. When you come back, the work is done — tested, verified, formatted, and ready to ship. Hooks preserve state across compaction cycles, persistent memory carries context between sessions, quality hooks catch every mistake along the way, and verifier agents review the code before marking it complete. No babysitting required.

Show HN: HJX – An AI-Native Web Language Unifying HTML, CSS and JavaScript

Show HN: HJX – A Unified Web Language Designed for AI-Native Code Generation

Hi HN,

I’ve been exploring a language design where structure, style, and logic live in one authoring unit — to reduce token fragmentation when AI models generate frontend code.

HJX is a compiled UI language that unifies *structure*, *style*, and logic into a single `.hjx` file. It compiles to clean, dependency-free HTML + CSS + JavaScript — no virtual DOM, no runtime overhead, no framework lock-in. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Here’s a real example from the README:

```hjx component Counter state: count = 0 layout: view#root.card: text.title: "Count: {{count}}" button.primary (on click -> inc): "Increase" style: .card { padding: 16px; border: 1px solid #ddd; border-radius: 12px; } .primary { padding: 10px 14px; border-radius: 10px; cursor: pointer; } handlers: inc: set count = count + 1 ```

Happy to answer questions about the hjx and open for pr -Loaii abdalslam

Show HN: CodeGraph CLI – Chat with your codebase using graph-augmented RAG

Mon, 02/16/2026 - 11:39pm

Hey HN!

I built CodeGraph CLI because I was tired of grep-ing through massive codebases trying to understand how things work.

It combines three things: - tree-sitter (AST parsing, error-tolerant) - SQLite (dependency graph: nodes + edges) - LanceDB (vector embeddings, disk-based)

The key insight: pure vector search misses structural relationships. So I combined vector search with BFS graph traversal — find semantically similar code, then expand to dependencies/dependents.

Result: ask "how does authentication work?" and it finds validate_token(), its caller login_handler(), AND the dependency TokenStore — because it understands both meaning AND structure.

Other features: - Impact analysis (multi-hop BFS: what breaks before you change it) - Multi-agent system via CrewAI (4 specialized agents) - Visual code explorer (browser-based) - Auto-generate docs/READMEs - 100% local-first (works with Ollama, zero data leaves machine) - 6 LLM providers (Ollama, OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, Gemini, OpenRouter) - 5 embedding models (from zero-dependency hash to 1.5B code model)

Quick start: pip install codegraph-cli cg config setup cg project index ./your-project cg chat start

MIT licensed. Python 3.9+.

Happy to answer questions about the graph-augmented RAG architecture or any technical decisions.
