The score comes from our model.

• Show HN: Junior – an open-source AI junior engineer that runs on your Mac · score 5.8

  Junior (formerly Triage) is a macOS desktop app that aggregates GitHub, Slack, Linear, and other MCP-enabled tools into a ranked inbox, then uses Claude Code or Codex to draft fixes, replies, and PRs with human approval before anything is sent. It combines agentic coding with a strong 'nothing leaves without your OK' safety model and a rules-based ranking rather than LLM-scored prioritization.
