The score comes from our model.

• Show HN: Make AI coding agents verify its own work · score 8.3

  Reticle is a dev-only SDK and MCP server that lets AI coding agents verify their work by driving the running app and reading network, state, console, and source-level evidence. It returns pass/fail/unknown verdicts with file:line locations, and supports deterministic replayable flows plus CI gating. It addresses the common problem of agents declaring success without checking, filling a clear gap in AI-assisted development workflows.

• Show HN: OpenFilm – Turn any coding agent into a video editor · score 8.3

  OpenFilm is an open-source AI video agent that lets coding agents create and edit videos by generating animated web pages. It provides a local browser-based Studio editor for timeline editing, element manipulation, and rendering to various formats, with a unique deterministic frame API and validation tooling.

• Show HN: MuscleMemory – procedural memory for coding agents, proven by tests · score 8.0

  MuscleMemory is a local-first procedural memory system for coding agents that watches agent sessions and learns reusable skills when tests pass twice, then supplies short guidance notes to future agents. It stands out by grounding memorization in verified test outcomes and failure avoidance, with guardrails like human approval, file checks, and automatic skill retirement.

• Show HN: Loböle, open-source parametric CAD that AI agents can drive · score 8.0

  Loböle is an open-source parametric CAD system built on OpenCASCADE with a Vulkan viewport, exposing a unified command layer accessible from its GUI, Python scripts, and AI agents via JSON-RPC and MCP. It covers sketches, assemblies, FEM simulation, CAM toolpaths, git-backed versioning, and multi-format interchange, and it ships impressive generator-built models like an OM615 diesel and an automatic watch. The agent-driveable architecture is a genuinely novel angle for desktop CAD.
