Show HN: A desktop fly drawn to the scent of vibecode

It is a fork of https://github.com/DenisSergeevitch/desktop-fly , but with an important update. Now the fly can pick up the scent of the codebase with its neurons and fly straight to the source code of your B2B AI SaaS startup. It has learned to scan its surroundings for agent markers: AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .cursor/rules, .kiro/steering, and forty others. Anything on the screen that points to these markers becomes a source of the scent - an editor window with an open project, a line in Finder, or a desktop icon. An open project reeks the strongest, while a closed icon or nested folders give off a fainter odor. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49389466 Points: 3 # Comments: 0
