AI agents can generate code, but still struggle to understand what they build. Reticle brings Jev-style machine-native runtime perception to web & desktop applications.

About the project

Reticle is a dev-only SDK and MCP toolset that lets coding agents drive a real running web or desktop app and verify the result of their changes. It returns a pass/fail/unknown verdict with evidence and the file:line to fix.

Useful for
  • Verify an agent's fix actually works by driving the running app and getting an evidence-backed verdict
  • Save a passing journey as a flow and re-verify it deterministically without an LLM
  • Add reticle gate to CI to block changes that break saved flows

1.8 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 20, 2026, 11:53 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-20 (UTC), 10:54–11:52: 1266 → 1267 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +3 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Hacker News: “Show HN: Make AI coding agents verify its own work” — 10 points, 1 h ago.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 50. -6% versus the preceding 7 days.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
