You're Not a Better Engineer Because You Type Git Commands by Hand
At the end of the day LLM output is not deterministic, and the burden shifts from writing code to reviewing it. It makes sense to cover the review surface with deterministic checks/validations as much as possible - unit test, linters, static analysis tools, e2e integration test etc. one gap I noticed when it comes to such tools is that they are generally language/stack specific and don't cover things like file/directory structure/naming, file relationships/references, use of potentially harmful Unicode [0], general file/config structure, permissions, broken symlinks, files which should not be committed but are, etc. , etc. I've been building a tool - a general repo shape/structure linter, with extensible config/rules - to cover these cases in a deterministic way [1] [2].

Ask HN: What are you working on? (June 2026)
I'm working on a general repo shape/structure linter (language agnostic)[0] - the idea is to enforce things like directory structure, existence of various files (LICENCE, etc.), file naming patterns, jsonpath + schema over json/yaml/toml, absence of potentially malicious unicode. It comes with rule bundles for various languages/presets which can be combined and extended. A goal is for it to be very fast, and useable on huge monorepos. I noticed myself having to add various forms of validation/scripts when coding using AI, and decided to build a reusable, fast tool for this purpose instead of rolling validation scripts for each project.

When AI Builds Itself
I've been building a general linter tool to help keep repos in a consistent and clean shape when working with AI [0]. You can define repo and file layout, structure, hygiene rules and have them checked in pre-commit, in ci, or manually. It also integrates and plays well with AGENTS.md - allowing exporting agent instructions from the alint rule config [1].

Ask HN: What are tools you have made for yourself since the advent of AI
I've made a general repo linting tool [0][1]. Originally it's purpose was to replace a bunch of repo hygiene/structure validation scripts I ended up adding as I noticed various sloppy AI changes. I am ended up going through a bunch of open source repos to see what other kinds of validations they had via scripts and incorporated those into the tool as a set of general/extensible rule types. This tool allows you to define repo structure, hygiene and other rules in a declarative way and it is very fast [2] (great for pre-commit and CI workflows).
