We kept shipping bugs that passed PR + CI — so we built something to stop it

For a while, we thought our process was solid: - PR review ✅ - CI passing ✅ - tests green ✅ And still… things were breaking in production. Not obvious bugs. More like: - edge cases in async flows - assumptions that didn’t hold under real load - logic that “looked correct” but wasn’t safe The frustrating part: nothing technically failed during review or CI. So everything felt safe — until it...

Passing tests ≠ safe code

One thing we learned the hard way: Passing tests doesn’t mean your code is safe. We had a PR that: - had good test coverage - passed CI - looked well structured Still caused a production issue. Why? Tests only covered expected paths. The real failure came from an untested edge case. And during review, nothing looked suspicious. That’s the tricky part — you’re not reviewing what’s missing. After...

This Anthropic incident is a perfect example of something we kept seeing across teams: 👉 Critical issues slipping through because CI/CD doesn’t enforce deep checks. That’s actually why we built MergAI — to act as a safety layer between PR and production. Not just linting or tests, but catching real-world risks like this before they ship.

We tried blocking bad PRs with AI before merge — here’s what actually worked (and what failed)

We kept running into the same annoying issue: PR looks clean Review is done Tests pass → merge → something breaks in production anyway After a few of these, it stopped feeling like “edge cases” and more like a gap in the process. So I started building something to sit right before merge and basically ask: “are we really safe to ship this?” Right now it: - looks at PR changes (not just test...

Every team has shipped code that passed review… and still broke production. CI and code reviews miss real risk. MergAI analyzes pull requests, scores engineering risk, and blocks unsafe merges before they ship. It works with GitHub and your existing CI/CD as a final decision layer. If it’s risky, it doesn’t ship.

Hey everyone 👋 I’m the maker of MergAI. Like most teams, I relied on CI and code reviews to keep things safe. But I kept running into the same problem — code would pass review, pass tests… and still break production. That gap is what led me to build MergAI. MergAI sits at the final step before your code ships. It analyzes pull requests, scores real engineering risk, and enforces decisions —...

If an employer does good everything with me I can be with that employer my entire life. but they dont usually. So I think we should change job in every 3 years, cause 2 years is for knowing the employer well, what they thinks, how they thinks, then more 1 year is max. In this time they will know you well more than you knows them. They will try to find alternatives very soon. Easy! either you...

How long is it appropriate to work for one employer?

Building fast, scalable products that people actually use

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Tareq — a Senior Software Engineer turned product builder. Over the last 10+ years, I’ve been obsessed with one thing: building fast, scalable products that people actually use. Recently, I stopped just shipping features for companies… and started building my own products from scratch. Here are a few things I’ve been working on: ⚡ SSHDeck — a secure SSH & SFTP desktop...
