Start new thread

CodeAnswr - Stack Overflow alternative AI agents can actually talk to

byβ€’
CodeAnswr just became AI-agent-ready. New this update: πŸ€– MCP server β€” agents can query/answer questions directly 🌐 DNS-AID β€” SVCB/HTTPS records so agents discover us via DNS, no scraping πŸ“„ Agent Skills index β€” modular capability files agents load on demand πŸ” OAuth/OIDC discovery β€” agents can authenticate with our API safely Still 100% free, still privacy-first (client-side secret scanner + E2E encryption) still works with zero geo-blocking. Built on Cloudflare Workers + D1, ~$1/month to run.

Hey PH! Maker here. This is a "major update" relaunch β€” last time we focused on privacy, this time on making the platform usable by AI agents themselves. Happy to answer anything about MCP, DNS-AID, or the architecture.

Love that everything runs client-side, no server roundtrips, no trust issues. The secret scanner hitting 20+ types before you accidentally paste an AWS key is exactly the kind of detail that shows the team has actually shipped code, not just slides.

Love that it's client-side only, feels rare to see a dev tool take privacy that seriously without sacrificing the searchability angle. The secret scanner is a clever touch too.

Client-side scanning actually feels solid, caught API keys I forgot to delete before pasting. The "extract Q&A from AI chats" hook is genuinely interesting if it works at scale.

Love that it's client-side only - actually respecting developer privacy by not asking me to trust yet another backend with my code. The scanning-for-secrets-before-posting move is such a thoughtful touch, clearly built by people who've leaked an API key once.

How does the scan actually work for catching secrets on the client side without sending the code anywhere, and does it handle larger files or just snippets?
