Looks well done, nice looking TUI. Does not specify if it's vibe coded or not, which I think should be normal practice now ;(
Everyone asking was this vibe coded should calm down. Instead we should just have automated ways to audit the code to see if it’s secure, see if it’s going to steal our keys, etc.

If it provides value who cares?

I mean we could read the code to see if it does anything nefarious. Or have a bought do a check or checks.

But asking every time there’s a show HN is it vibe coded is such gatekeeping elitest nonsense it makes me angry.

There's probably value in a web extension that uses a small embedded LLM to filter out comments that complain about literally any AI that's used in the submission.

To make it really funny, that extension should be vibe coded.

Seriously though, it should just be against HN guidelines. It's annoying to see that 90% of the comments are just people fighting over vibe coding on a completely unrelated topic. On this submission? There's only 1 (one) on-topic comment.

I think you're right, onto something. The responsibility is on vibe coders to do that work though, not the audience they are sharing it with. If you share something insecure and sloppily put together, its your duty to make it right and not deceive people about the nature of it.
