Shotgun is now open source 🎊

Shotgun writes codebase-aware specs for AI coding agents so they don't derail.

The problem we're solving: AI agents made developers fast at building. Also made them fast at building the wrong things. Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot—they generate code immediately without asking: does this already exist in your codebase? Does a better solution exist externally?

What Shotgun does:

Research → Specify → Plan → Tasks → Export

Indexes your entire codebase, researches internal patterns + external solutions, writes specs with full context. Exports for Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, Lovable.

Why we made it open source:

Every team using AI agents hits this problem. Better to solve it once, together. MIT license. Python CLI.

We're trying to hit GitHub trending today.

Trending means thousands of developers discover what you helped launch.
