Show HN: Critic – Review code with the agent that wrote it
7 hours ago
- A queue system was converted into a leased handoff mechanism.
- Questions arrive with a session and are atomically claimed by a device; expired claims become reusable.
- Session transcripts remain on the machine that created them.
- Only one connected device owns a question at a time; claim expires after 45 seconds without losing context.
- Questions from a change page now wait for the author's coding agent rather than assuming the machine is online.
- A short lease allows any connected author device to claim the work while the original session provides context.
- Anchor movement is now conservative: exact blobs win, and other candidates are scored with close matches shown as ambiguous.
- The agent question status component shows which device is answering and reconnects on stale leases without extra queries.
