... everyone I'm Hamid, a software engineer with a bit over a decade of experience. The last few months I've been heads-down building AEGIS: an open-source (Apache 2.0) defense-in-depth layer for LLM apps and agents prompt injection detection, policy enforcement, and tool/agent permissioning so a prompt injection can't quietly get an agent to misuse a tool. What pulled me into this specifically: most guardrail tooling I looked at only reports how it does against ...

... been building AEGIS, an open-source defense layer for LLM apps/agents (prompt injection detection, policy enforcement, tool-permissioning for agents). Before I launch it here Tuesday, I want to share something I almost didn't publish. Most guardrail projects report a round-1 catch rate against a fixed test set which tells you very little about a real attacker who adapts. I ran our detectors through adaptive red-team campaigns that breed new attacks from whatever got past the last ...

... pitch is simple: deep 4X-style strategy, zero downloads. Just open a tab and start commanding your empire. Here's what makes it different: Fully browser-based works on any device, no install needed - Three factions: Vanguard (offense), Aegis (defense), Concord (diplomacy) - Build colonies, deploy fleets, forge alliances - Real-time multiplayer fleets travel while you sleep - Season-based (~120 days) each season ends in a galaxy-wide battle for the Galactic Beacon We're currently in pre-launch, building ...

... theory but in practice they kept getting in the way. The constant syncing and broken context made development slower than expected. Switching to a cleaner monorepo setup brought a noticeable improvement in flow. Comment from Solal Zanovello(@solal_aegis): This is a game-changer for AI context management. I m currently 17, building Aegis

Download: invoke.yugin.co/download As always, let us know if you run into anything. Comment from Solal Zanovello(@solal_aegis): The /automation command is a game changer for system-level development!

... operations, AP property changes, wall drawing, destructive actions). Confirmation dialogs before deleting floors/APs. Keyboard navigation in all dropdowns. Walls render over the heatmap so you can actually see them. Try it at https://deconflict.pages.dev Comment from Solal Zanovello(@solal_aegis): This is a masterpiece of browser-based engineering! I m 17, and while I m mostly deep in Rust kernel development (Aegis

... crash in certain situations. (Windows) Fixed an issue that could trigger an `ERROR_NO_ASSOCIATION` (No associated program found) error when opening or editing settings files (#333). Other various minor fixes and stability improvements. Comment from Solal Zanovello(@solal_aegis): This 0.7.0 update is massive, especially the Strategy Engine ! I m 17, currently building Aegis

... human-facing and more agent-facing." Exactly. As pointed out in the blog announcement, "nearly 50% of traffic to documentation comes from AI agents and AI-assisted workflows." The role of documentation has shifted. Comment from Solal Zanovello(@solal_aegis): Huge milestone for @Mintlify! The shift toward documentation as the "knowledge layer for AI" is exactly what we need. I m currently building Aegis

... vibecoding MVPs but keep one rule: the problem must be validated before the architecture is refactoring later is cheaper than building the wrong thing slowly.

... Code as a backup Comment from Patrick Monnot(@patrick_monnot): Choose the right tool for the right use case! Comment from Daniel Bernasconi(@daniel_bernasconi): @chrismessina  have you tried Claude Code? Do you think Warp is a valid alternative? I know they are a bit different, but with the weekly limits and all coming to CC, I better prepare and incorporate new tech "under my belt".. Cheers Comment from Rajiv Ayyangar(@rajiv_ayyangar): @aaronoleary   @realbellosanchez  It sounds ... ... commands/tests, explain the diff. For bigger changes, the test/log part matters more than whether the agent sits in the IDE or terminal. Comment from Anders T.(@atherkildsen): @pedro_marchal this is a really solid breakdown honestly. the "thinking" vs

... launching on PH this week, so full circle. Wouldn't call it "money from that first version" though, that one barely resembled what exists now. Curious how many other people here started completely outside software like I did vs. devs who just found a faster way to ship side projects. Comment from Jalal Nasser(@jalalnasser): I built my apps with @Lovable and @Vercel at the start, then when I saw the price was a costly monthly subscription as a freelancer ... ... have any launch date in mind? :D Comment from fzero17(@fzero17): My first vibecoded project was OpenFolder a macOS menu bar app that turns your desktop into a calm personal launchpad. I built it using GitHub Copilot + VS
