OpenChaos is a self-evolving open source project. Anyone submits a PR, community votes with 👍 and 👎 reactions, and the highest net score gets merged every Sunday. The twist: everything can be changed - including the rules themselves. Week 1 results: 400+ stars, 70+ PRs, a dramatic "campaign dropout," and our first community-driven merge just shipped. Current PRs include "Rewrite it in Rust" and "IE6 mode, welcome back to GeoCities." Built with Next.js. Governed by chaos.

One API to build production-ready voice agents

Hey Product Hunt! 👋

I built OpenChaos in one night as an experiment: what happens when you let the internet control a codebase?

Rules are simple:

- Anyone submits a PR

- Community votes with 👍 and 👎

- Highest net score ships every Sunday

- Everything can change—including the rules

Week 1 was wild. Someone tried to delete everything (failed CI). Someone dramatically withdrew their PR citing "big money funded PRs plotting against him." I withdrew my own winning PR to keep the first merge community-driven.

Hit #1 on Hacker News. 400+ stars. First merge just shipped.

Full Week 1 story: blog.openchaos.dev/posts/week-1-the-first-merge

What's next? The community is voting to switch from weekly to daily merges. A Rust rewrite and an IE6 mode with Comic Sans are close behind.

The chaos is just getting started. Would love to see what PRs you submit.
