Beware the two extremes - AI out of the box with no additional config, or writing code entirely by hand.

In order to get high accuracy PRs with AI (small, tested commits that follow existing patterns efficiently), you need to spend time adding agents (claude.md, agents.md), skills, hooks, and tools specific to your setup.

This is why so much development is happening at the plugin layer right now, especially with Claude code.

The juice is worth the squeeze. Once accuracy gets high enough you don't need to edit and babysit what is generated, you can horizontally scale your output.

Paid In Bio https://www.paidinbio.com

HN is probably not the target audience for this, but I've become really obsessed about solving my own problem of building apps, but struggling to market them. There are very few places online that welcome you to post links, enable you to post a link quickly, and drive targeted traffic at reasonable cost.

So I'm trying to bootstrap a new ad network on Link In Bio platforms that offers this trifecta (welcoming, quick, cost effective).

Has anybody considered selling ad space on their Github READMEs for popular OSS packages?

Contributions are great, but I'd imagine more money would be generated for OSS devs if the contributors got something in return - namely highly targeted web traffic from a link on the README.

Personally, I'd like to buy a few links on READMEs to source more consulting work, but finding contact information and cold emailing repository owners is pretty difficult.

Thoughts?
