Coming out of stealth :) We are building @scott_ai_ - Coding Agent Plan Mode with Super Powers Get to your best spec faster. Align with your team faster. Let coding agents take on larger tasks.

satya loves all the layers: silicon layer cognition layer data layer intelligence layer organizing layer LoRa layer detection layer discovery layer cognitive layer management layers infrastructure layer scaffolding layer software layer app layer UI layer

this is amazing. Anthropic not only understands how to build the best models but also how to use them best. just look at this frontend-design skill. it's just one file with 42 lines of instructions that read like the type of memo a frontend lead would write for their team. that's all it takes to prevent claude from generating "ai slop" frontend. they are literally reminding Claude of its own capabilities (not different from how you would motivate a talented IC): "Remember: Claude is capable of extraordinary creative work. Don't hold back, show what can truly be created when thinking outside the box and committing fully to a distinctive vision."

a top team from my yc batch!

Whether coding agents are good at technology “x” is one of my top considerations in designing systems now. Wild.

if you aren't planning, you're wasting tokens

@jhanikhil yeah I've worked with Devin - Scott is way smarter

only in sf is there a guy named Scott making an AI called Devin and a guy named Devin making an AI called Scott

🚀 @scott_ai_ launched! Coding Agent Plan Mode with Superpowers “Get to your best spec faster. Align with your team faster. Let coding agents take on larger tasks." 🌐 fondo.ai/4hIY4s6 Congrats @davidmaulick & @Devin_BC!!

@codewithimanshu @ycombinator @scott_ai_ @Devin_BC Hopefully soon developers are spending all their time on specs, and coding agents write all the code.

@ycombinator @scott_ai_ @davidmaulick @Devin_BC That's a cool launch, Y! Using AI swarms to speed up specs sounds like a proper game-changer, no?

Scott AI (@scott_ai_) is building coding agent plan mode with superpowers. Run multi-agent swarms to find your best spec faster. ycombinator.com/launches/Okw-s… Congrats on the launch @davidmaulick and @Devin_BC!

One of the key things about being able to build great things with codegen is having a plan. Without a plan, you can't build anything Scott AI lets you have a "Swarm of Experts" that fights it out over architecture decisions so you can make the best choice when you prompt in Claude Code/Codex/Cursor

@Anis_StepUpOne @ycombinator @scott_ai_ @Devin_BC We are laser focused on the spec discovery/ planning phase of working with coding agents - @scott_ai_ is built around this as the primary concern. Rather than trying to write pull requests like other tools, we want to make the spec discovery process more efficient.

@ycombinator @scott_ai_ @davidmaulick @Devin_BC Most coding agents excel in demos but break on legacy codebases, what makes this different from the dozen other YC AI coding tools?

@M_Romanovsky @ycombinator @scott_ai_ @Devin_BC Currently we ship as a mac app. The experience is intended to be compatible with any codegen tool; rather than focusing on codegen phase, @scott_ai_ is trying to improve the planning phase of writing software.

@ycombinator @scott_ai_ @davidmaulick @Devin_BC Will it be plugin for IDE or MCP server?

@_trish_xD Java

Programming language you learned once but never touched again?

@jaymehoffman @NotebookLM @claudeai @magicpatterns @Teddarific @alexdanilowicz love the shoutout @jaymehoffman - kicking of our x account at @scott_ai_ -- will be posting much more content there soon! cc @Devin_BC

tl;dr how i made it: 1. @NotebookLM for defining a response structure from a bunch of pokedex clips 2. @claudeai opus 4.1 for creating the prompt and high-level requirements 3. @magicpatterns for quick (~10min) prototyping and comfy sweatshirt @Teddarific @alexdanilowicz 🙏 4. @OpenAI gpt 4o-mini for analyzing images 5. scott AI (h/t @davidmaulick) for generating specs to guide coding agents 6. @cartesia sonic-3 for lightning fast voice 7. @cursor_ai 2.0 with the help of @aquavoice for planning, polish and to bring it all together Halloween is going to be fun👻

I made an AI Pokédex for Halloween costumes...

@neatprompts @Devin_BC you agree with this?

@pontusab Seems like a maintenance nightmare

This is how I structure our multi-agent AI system: • 10 agents (triage + 9 specialists) • 43 tools (grouped by domain) • 12 artifacts (visual canvases) Each agent gets only the tools it needs. Clean and maintainable.

@IamKyros69 That’s my vibe
