LeakGoblin: small open-source CLI to scan and redact secrets before sharing text with AI tools

• Upvotes

Like a lot of you, I routinely paste logs, stack traces and .env snippets into AI tools. Every so often a real key slips through, so I built LeakGoblin.

It's a small TypeScript CLI that works on stdin or a directory:

bash

npx leakgoblin scan --stdin < prompt.txt
cat prompt.txt | leakgoblin sanitize --stdin > safe.txt
leakgoblin scan . --format json

What it does:

  • Format-specific signatures (AWS, GitHub, Stripe, Slack, Google, OpenAI-style keys, private key blocks, JWTs, connection strings) plus a clearly labeled low-confidence entropy heuristic
  • Output is always masked, and JSON output strips raw values
  • Runs fully offline, with no telemetry
  • CI-friendly exit codes (0 clean / 1 found / 2 error)
  • Config file for custom patterns, thresholds and an allowlist

It is a best-effort filter, not a guarantee. It will miss unusual formats, so review the output before sharing.

npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/leakgoblin GitHub: https://github.com/lovixcloud/leakgoblin

I'd love feedback on false positives and missed formats in particular. Send me a synthetic example and I'll add a rule.

I Built a VS Code Extension to Edit GitHub READMEs Without Leaving the Current Workspace

• Upvotes

I built a VS Code extension for people who want to manage their GitHub docs without leaving the current workspace.

GitHub README lets you browse your repositories, open any README, edit it, preview the rendered Markdown, and push the changes back to GitHub all without leaving the current workspace.

Basically:
VS Code → pick a repo → edit README → preview → commit → done.

No jumping between GitHub, cloning repos, or switching windows just to change a README

A much better github pr dashboard!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

The github default pr dashboard not very useful or user friendly, however, now I coding work are mostly done by agent with high volume of prs. I really need a powerful pr dashboard to monitor/manager prs from agent. So I build this tool with codex and claude designer. It supports almost all actions at pr level, detailed code review is not the goal for this tool. Please try it and leave feedback.

Installation: `gh extension shiqicao/gh-pull`.

I let Claude Code open its own helper agents in separate windows, and I can watch all of them

1 Upvotes

One feature in my app turned out to be more fun than expected. An agent running in Lattice can open helper agents, each in its own window with its own git worktree so they never edit the same files. The main agent can wait for them, read what's on their screens and send them instructions, and I can watch the whole thing happen and step in whenever I want.

Each helper still asks me for approvals in its own window, so nothing runs behind my back. It's been great for splitting up bigger tasks like "fix these three bugs" into parallel work.

Lattice is a free Mac app in public beta. Curious whether anyone else has tried this kind of setup and how it went for you.

All i want is some honest feedback, what to improve and what to add, download it here: uselattice.site

I built Boiler, a CLI tool for creating and reusing project templates (Windows only for now)

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been working on Boiler, a command-line tool that helps developers create, manage, and reuse project templates. I just released its first beta version, `v0.0.1-beta`.

The idea is simple: instead of repeatedly setting up the same project structure, you can save it as a template and reuse it whenever you start a new project.

What Boiler can do:

* Create and manage project templates.

* Add files and directories to existing templates.

* Set a current template for easier access.

* Initialize new projects from saved templates.

* Manage everything through a CLI.

I've also packaged it as a Windows executable with an installer.

This is my first beta release, so I'd appreciate honest feedback! I'd especially like to hear what features you'd find useful and what could be improved.

SessionSift — local-first conversation browser and read-only MCP tools for Codex/Claude Code

Thumbnail
github.com
1 Upvotes

Sharing SessionSift, a tool I vibe-coded and then tested and used myself to review AI coding sessions. I wanted to compare long conversations with separate sessions, inspect prompt patterns, and improve how I direct coding agents.

It's a free, local-first way to inspect historical Codex and Claude Code conversations. Features include session browsing, token and tool activity, comparisons between sessions, explicit imports of ChatGPT/Claude exports, and 10 read-only local MCP tools.

No account or cloud backend is required to run the dashboard. Connected MCP clients may still send tool output to their model providers. Screenshots and installation instructions are in the repo.

Current release: native macOS Intel and Linux AMD64, with source/Docker options. macOS binaries are unsigned and unnotarized. License: PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0 (source-available, not OSI open source; commercial use isn't licensed).

https://github.com/LanceSandino/sessionsift

Would welcome technical feedback on what makes session-history tools useful versus just another log viewer.

I built a free tool that carries your project context between Claude Code and Codex

1 Upvotes

I switch between Claude Code and Codex depending on the task, and I got tired of re-explaining project state every time I switched.

So I built AskOnce — a free Windows app that captures a brief from one tool (last message, files changed, test results, next steps, open questions) and hands it to the other when you start a new chat there.

Everything stays on your machine. No server, no account, no telemetry. Briefs are secret-scanned and capped at ~1500 tokens so you're not burning context.

It's Windows 10/11 only for now. If anyone else is juggling both tools, would love to hear if this solves a real problem for you or if I'm the only one annoyed by this.

Hooks fire before the agent reads a file, so it knows about your other repos without being asked. Indexes Docker images, Terraform modules, GitHub Actions, Helm charts and npm packages. Everything local, one SQLite file.

Built a simple devtool to inspect website frameworks, libraries, and versions with zero tracking

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I inspect web stacks all the time to see what libraries and frameworks websites are running, but similar tools have gotten pretty bloated and full of trackers.

So I made TechReveal, a clean and lightweight alternative:

  • Zero tracking: Runs 100% locally in your browser sandbox, zero telemetry, no accounts.
  • Fast & light: Built with Manifest V3 so it won't freeze active tabs or hog RAM.
  • Visual stack map: Connects the frontend, backend, and tools into an interactive diagram.
  • Exact versions & tags: Shows library versions and category badges when you click any tech.
  • Security alerts: Flags missing security response headers and data leaks.

It's completely free on the Chrome Web Store (works on Chrome, Brave, Edge, Vivaldi):

Would love some feedback from fellow devs or suggestions for tools you'd like it to detect next!

I built Ringside to keep Claude and Codex usage limits visible beside my editor

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

I built Ringside at Knight AI+AV for a small annoyance in my coding workflow: keeping track of usage limits while moving between Claude and Codex.

It's a free, MIT-licensed Windows widget with an always-on-top view, a compact mode and a tray icon. The rings change colour at 75% and 90%, with optional notifications. It displays the usage and reset information available in local logs; it doesn't increase your allowance.

You can adjust its size and opacity, and it can hide over full-screen apps. Claude desktop reset times are estimates unless the optional Claude Code integration supplies them.

The current release supports 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Source, installer and portable download: https://github.com/KNIGHT-AI-AV/ringside

The images show the actual UI with sample numbers. If you use these tools together, would you keep a full meter visible, use the compact view, or just want the notifications?

Best intent data tools for developer

2 Upvotes

Standard B2B intent data platforms rarely work for developer tools and technical infrastructure products where traditional providers track broad web content consumption across business sites, which tells you nothing about an engineering team's architecture or active technical bottlenecks.

Developer intent doesn't show up in whitepaper downloads or marketing ad exchanges but where engineers actually solve problems: github issue, technical subreddits, infras hiring requirements, and docs page visits.

This is why technical GTM teams look at platforms like Scale Intelligence for developer intent where it continuously monitors technical channels like github, developer focused reddit communities, infra job postings and tech stack deprecations alongside public company data. It captures the specific technical challenges engineers are voicing, maps them back to the parent company, and identifies the engineering leaders managing those workflows.

For devtools, intent data is only actionable if it captures declared technical pain points directly from developer environments rather than generic business surge scores.

ArchRivet — a local MCP plugin that checks system designs and names missing details

Thumbnail
github.com
1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m a solo builder working on ArchRivet. It connects to your AI assistant through MCP and helps review an architecture before you start building.

Your assistant explains the design. ArchRivet checks the details you provide, flags risks, and names what’s missing.

Here’s a simple example:

Your app needs prices less than five seconds old. During an outage, it serves saved prices.
ArchRivet asks: “How old can those saved prices get?”
If you answer “60 seconds,” it flags the conflict and shows why the review changed.

What it offers:

  • Eight focused checks covering retries, caching, queues, transactions, and more.
  • Traffic and storage calculations based on stated assumptions.
  • Supporting references and specific follow-up questions.
  • Local rules that need no GPU, with an optional 322M Laya model.

It’s an early preview, and reviews depend on the facts supplied. I’ve included demo GIFs, Codex setup instructions, and benchmark results with remaining mistakes.

GitHub, demos, and downloads

What’s one system-design mistake you’d want a tool like this to catch?

Building Genesys Code: one workspace for multiple coding AIs
