Shotgun turns AI agents into persistent cofounders

ANNOUNCEMENT PRODUCT GITHUB PRODUCT HUNT

Shotgun is an open-source virtual cofounder framework that runs locally to solve context limitations of AI chatbots for solo developers. By injecting a structured memory system, daily operating rhythms, and autonomous loops into any Git repository, it turns standard developer agents into persistent collaborators.

// ANALYSIS

While agentic developer tools are booming, the biggest barrier to their usefulness has been their lack of long-term memory; by anchoring agent context in local Markdown and Git, Shotgun provides a simple, transparent, and tool-agnostic solution to persistence that bypasses the need for complex database backends.

* Local git-based storage makes context completely portable, transparent, and editable by the developer.

* Support for a wide variety of agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity) ensures developers aren't locked into a single ecosystem.

* A structured daily operating rhythm brings traditional software project management processes directly into AI developer workflows.

* Integrating a specialist review panel reduces errors before code is pushed, helping solo developers build more reliably.

Terminal Control is an open-source tool that enables AI coding agents to control, test, and capture real terminal applications through pseudo-terminals.

Terminal Control provides a Rust-based command-line interface and a TypeScript client library that allow external drivers, such as AI agents and automated testing suites, to interact directly with Terminal User Interfaces (TUIs). By offering a real pseudo-terminal environment, it overcomes the limitations of parsing plain text output, enabling precise keystroke injection, screen capture, timeline recording, and extraction of structured visual states like SVG and JSON.
