Pinkie Software Factory - Your idea in, a reviewable draft out — you stay in control

by•
AI Factory is a self-hosted, human-in-the-loop software factory. Describe what you want in plain language — it plans, sends several AI agents to build in parallel, picks the best result, and hands you a reviewable draft: a downloadable project (new ideas) or a draft Pull Request (existing repos). Nothing ships without your say-so — it never touches main. No idea where to start? "Discovery" asks two quick questions and offers concrete starter cards, so a blank page becomes a buildable request.

Hey PH 👋 I built AI Factory because plenty of people have a clear idea but get stuck the moment code is involved — and because I wanted my own AI coding to stay reviewable, never auto-merged. What it is: a self-hosted orchestrator that drives the Claude and Codex CLIs. You give a plain-language request; it plans, runs N agents in parallel, picks the best, and delivers a draft (zip or draft PR). A human approves before any build and before any merge — it never pushes to main. Tech: Spring Boot gateway + bash pipeline, Docker/K8s, Apache-2.0. The mascot "Pinkie" is the Discovery guide that walks non-coders from "no idea" to a buildable request. Honest limits (v1): static sites + browser tools; no backend tier yet; and since it calls the Claude/Codex cloud APIs, your prompt/code go to those providers — self-hosting covers the pipeline, not the model. Would love feedback on the Discovery flow and where the draft-only guardrails feel right vs. too cautious. Repo + one-command run in the first comment ↓
