Ricochet coding
Open-source AI coding agent for IDE, CLI & messengers
What this is
An open-source AI coding agent that works in your editor, terminal, or via Discord and Telegram, with approvals and diff review before it touches code. For developers who want to supervise an agent, not just chat with one.
Our one-line summary — not the founder’s tagline.
- How it works
- An open-source, local-first AI coding agent for VS Code-compatible editors, CLI/TUI, and messengers via Ether Live Mode (Discord, Telegram), keeping a reviewable task timeline with approvals, checkpoints and pending diffs, and routing across BYOK or Grik-hosted models.
- What's different
- Keeps a reviewable approval timeline instead of running as an editor-only assistant, with swarm workers for recurring checks and remote follow-ups.
- Best for
- Developers who want to supervise and approve an AI agent's changes rather than just chat with it.

AI. Launched 18d ago on Product Hunt, picking up 7 votes. Today, it's been quiet for 15 days and the price has started to bleed.
Already bleeding a little every day, and it accelerates the longer it stays quiet.
We check this site every day, ourselves. A founder can post “still working on it” — a claim like that doesn't price. What we price is what we can verify from the outside: evidence, not announcements. The real question isn't “will this be huge?” — it's “will they still be moving in four weeks?”
The market viewHow this launch is priced and ranked in our league — the investor side of the page.
ranked by the reality anchor, not the market price
It launched on Product Hunt with 7 votes.
No matter how much money goes in. There is no pump here — you can't make yourself right by buying more. The line only moves on things that actually happened: an award, revenue that grew, a new platform, code that shipped — or silence.
En eski 4 hareket bu listede yok — toplam 16 olay var. 1 quiet day in between are left out — nothing happened on them. A launch that goes quiet eases down a little at a time — never a cliff you could have run from the night before.
Daily tracking just started for this launch — the first point is on the board. A second reading lands with tomorrow's run, and the curve builds from there.
How the launch is moving on its own board, day by day — the crowd's attention.
A flat line is normal: votes stop within a day or two of launch, on every board. What's unusual — and what actually counts — is a launch that keeps pulling votes long after its day is over.
About
Ricochet is an open-source, local-first AI coding agent for VS Code-compatible editors, CLI/TUI, and Ether Live Mode. Ether lets you start and control coding sessions from Discord, Telegram, and other messengers. Unlike editor-only assistants, Ricochet keeps a reviewable task timeline with approvals, checkpoints, pending diffs, MCP/skills, and routing across BYOK or Grik-hosted models. Swarm workers handle recurring checks and remote follow-ups while you keep repo control.

The board it did best on sets the price. Every other board only adds to it if the launch also placed high on that board too — because just showing up somewhere isn't an achievement. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
