Profile

Hey HN, I made a simple coding agent plugin in Android Studio called Firebender. Here’s an unedited 5-minute video where it writes tests for an Android app and iterates against the Gradle task output on its own (https://docs.firebender.com/get-started/agent). You can use the plugin for free, no sign up needed, on the jetbrains marketplace.The agent can edit multiple files, run gradle tasks like tests, and use the output to improve its changes. At the end, it reports a git diff of all changes that can be accepted or rejected.Under the hood, the agent relies on Claude 3.7 sonnet and a fast code apply model to speed up edits. We built tools to give deeper access throughout the IDE like IntelliJ

The company sits in the show hn launch segment, where it competes on its core product or service.

It is recorded at the Show HN launch stage.
