From RepoQuarry idea to public repo: Fivebar. A Windows app that sends scanner findings back to Claude Code and blocks pushes with high or critical findings. Open source, Apache-2.0. Early release, not a replacement for human review. What would you check first? github.com/Obiwayne/fiv...

Finding a useful repo is the start. Keeping up with its licence is another job. I'm building RepoQuarry for both: project ideas and licence-change emails for repos you follow in our catalogue. Free account, nightly checks. What would help you build? repoquarry.dev/track

What’s between “I have an AI coding tool” and “I built something useful”? I’m building RepoQuarry to help bridge that gap with open source build blueprints. What feels unclear or missing? Thank you to everyone exploring and contributing ❤️ repoquarry.dev/builds

Your first build doesn’t need to be a startup. It could be the inbox job you keep putting off. This illustrative Sweepmail demo uses sample data. The checker previews changes; live Grok Bot cleanup is still untested. What small job would you tackle? repoquarry.dev/blog/grok-bo...

A small first look at fivebar, an app I’m planning for people who build with AI coding agents. It starts with repos from the RepoQuarry catalogue. The aim is free and open source, with contributors welcome. Keeping the details quiet for now. Want to help shape it? repoquarry.dev

My latest little experiment: getting Alexa to wake the TV and bring up my Claude Code workspace. There’s something satisfying about saying "turn on work mode" and watching it happen. What’s the most useful thing you’ve automated at home?

That little app you wish existed? Start there. RepoQuarry brings together open source components and build blueprints. You can connect an AI agent through MCP to explore them. What everyday problem would you turn into a project? repoquarry.dev/builds

7 new repos added to RepoQuarry this week: Hypit, NVIDIA OpenShell, Cindy, desigma, KiviDB, Container by Aerovato and Presenter by Bisque. Sandboxed agents, a Redis-compatible database in Rust, an offline design tool. Give the builders a star. youtube.com/shorts/LJl-u...

Building today is overwhelming. Too many AI tools, not enough ideas worth building. RepoQuarry finds real builds from open-source projects you can start today: repoquarry.dev

Show me the thing you're making with AI. A useful little tool? A weird experiment? Your first app? What are you building, how are you building it, and which open source repos helped? Share a demo or GitHub link. Unfinished counts.

You don't need a huge startup idea to make something useful. What do you keep doing by hand? Finding a receipt, checking a page, digging through PDFs? RepoQuarry has blueprints and the repos behind them. Start with your own problem. repoquarry.dev/builds

Inbox cleanup is the Grok Bot job people copy most, so I wrote it up as a skill with a dry run first. Nothing is trashed until you approve. Banks, codes and people stay put. Free, MIT, untested on a live plan so far. repoquarry.dev/blog/grok-bot-inbox-cleanup

Herdr runs the agents. ShellQuarry gives them a browser you can watch. We built a free MIT Windows shell using parts found through RepoQuarry. Per-agent tabs, usage meters and a message box. Your agent plan still applies. Demo + build story: repoquarry.dev/blog/shellqu...

Grok API and Grok Bot are different xAI products, so our email assistant starter labels which is which. Main track: n8n calls the Grok API, you approve each reply in Telegram. Grok Bot pack: included, not tested yet. repoquarry.dev/blog/grok-em...

A RepoQuarry blueprint became LedgerQuarry: receipts from your phone, read by local AI on your PC. We talked the idea through with Claude, made a PRD, then built this in 37 minutes. Ollama + Rust + Tauri. Free, MIT licensed. Build story and limits: repoquarry.dev/blog/ledgerq...

We built LedgerQuarry, a free spending tracker that keeps your receipts private. • Snap a receipt on your phone • AI on your own PC reads it • Dashboard and budgets on your desktop • Paired by QR over Tailscale How we built it: repoquarry.dev/blog/ledgerq...

The bot is installed. The ideas haven’t arrived. RepoQuarry has build blueprints with repos and steps, from a receipt scanner to a personal document assistant. Pick something useful and give your AI a starting point. repoquarry.dev/builds

An open source alternative is only useful if it fits your actual work. RepoQuarry brings the requirements, costs and source links together so you can decide what to try. I’m building it and would love your feedback. What would help you switch? repoquarry.dev

A useful app can start with one everyday frustration. Ours became DiskQuarry, a free Windows storage dashboard with RepoQuarry software swaps. Find repos and skills for your own build. What would you make? repoquarry.dev/blog/diskqua...

We built DiskQuarry, a free storage dashboard for Windows. • Apps, downloads, large files, caches and system data on one screen • Clears to the Recycle Bin, never deletes • Open-source swaps for the paid apps you have installed repoquarry.dev/blog/diskqua...

Help shape RepoQuarry. It’s live for finding subscription alternatives, discovering repos to build with, and learning about tools. Take a look and tell me: what were you hoping to find, and what got in your way? Honest, constructive feedback welcome. repoquarry.dev

What’s taking shape in your editor today? If you’re building with AI, tell me about the project and the repo you keep coming back to. Tiny experiments welcome. I’m building RepoQuarry and want to hear what people are making.

A repo for people who think in code but need video. HyperFrames renders HTML, CSS and animations into MP4. Think motion graphics and repeatable compositions, rather than an all-in-one footage generator. Explore it: repoquarry.dev/projects/hyp...

An Undo button can matter more than another flashy AI demo. OpenClaw v2026.10.5 brings saved skill versions and Undo, a refreshed agent sidebar, and published conversations you can read without an account. What would make agents useful in your day? repoquarry.dev/projects/ope...

The AI project I'd like to see more of: one real problem, a small working experiment and evidence someone else can check. I wrote a RepoQuarry piece inspired by Felix Rieseberg, with an original project brief you can adapt. repoquarry.dev/blog/ambitio...

Local voice tools are worth exploring. Model licences still matter. VoiceStudio offers cloning, dubbing and transcription. CPU works, slower. Default OmniVoice weights are non-commercial; other engines have their own terms. My RepoQuarry source breakdown: repoquarry.dev/projects/voi...

Before automating your whole workflow, pick one boring job. Define the input, the result you need and how you'll check it. Then choose a tool. What repetitive task would you test first? Fictional creator comic from RepoQuarry. repoquarry.dev #OpenSource

Hi Bluesky, I'm Obi. I'm building RepoQuarry to help you find open source alternatives to paid software. Before switching, check: • Does it do your actual task? • Can it open and export your files? • What does setup cost in time or money? repoquarry.dev #OpenSource #BuildInPublic
