Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Ayush — a full-stack developer and open-source contributor from Dehradun, India. I built ContribOS because I kept hitting the same wall every time I tried to contribute to open source. The wall looked like this: → Spend 1–2 hours just finding an issue I could realistically fix → Clone the repo, dig through unfamiliar code, lose context halfway through → Write a patch, submit a PR, get it rejected for style/test reasons I didn't know about → Give up and start over on a different repo Maintainers have the mirror-image problem: a flood of low-quality, incomplete PRs that cost more time to review than to fix themselves. **ContribOS is my answer to both sides of that problem.** Here's exactly what it does: 🔍 **Smart Issue Discovery** — AI scores open GitHub issues against your skills, ecosystem preferences, and experience tier. No more scrolling through 400 issues hoping one fits. 🤖 **AI Fix Generation** — An agent worker clones the repo, analyzes the issue in context, calls your chosen LLM (Claude, GPT-4, Gemini, Mistral, Groq, DeepSeek, xAI, or Perplexity — or your own BYOK endpoint), and produces a unified diff. 🧠 **Human-in-the-Loop Review Gate** — Before any PR gets submitted, you walk through a multi-step review: read the diff, answer comprehension checks, understand what changed and why. ContribOS teaches you the codebase — it doesn't replace you. 📊 **Contribution Health Score (CHS)** — A reputation system that tracks the quality of your contributions across ecosystems. Higher score = access to higher-prestige repositories. Tier 1→4 progression. 🔒 **Fully Self-Hostable** — One `docker compose up --build` and you're running your own instance. AES-256-GCM encrypted API keys, SSRF protection, Content Security Policy, structured Pino logging. MIT license. No vendor lock-in. Ever. **The tech stack if you're curious:** - Frontend: React 19 + Vite 6 + shadcn/ui + Zustand - API: Fastify 5 + Prisma + PostgreSQL + BullMQ + Redis - Agent Worker: Python 3.12 + FastAPI (handles all LLM calls + repo cloning + diff generation) - Auth: GitHub OAuth 2.0 + JWT - Protocol: Google's A2A standard for agent-to-agent task delegation **Who this is for:** - Developers who want to contribute to OSS but feel lost in unfamiliar codebases - OSS maintainers who want incoming PRs that are actually ready to merge - Engineering orgs building structured open-source contribution programs - Anyone learning a new tech stack who wants guided, real-world coding practice **What I genuinely want from you today — not upvotes, but answers:** 1. Is the 5-step flow (Discover → Claim → Generate → Review → Submit) intuitive, or does a step feel missing? 2. Which LLM provider would you connect first — and why? 3. What would actually make you self-host this vs. wait for a hosted version? Repo is fully open: https://github.com/aayushbaluni/... MIT licensed. Good first issues labeled. PRs very welcome. Thank you for being here. Building this in public — excited to hear what the PH community thinks. 🙏
