    Your landing page is very hard to read. The font size is literally 10px for some content, while animations distract the reader.

    Dear YC, please force the startups to dedicate some of the 500k funding for standard web design.

    > P.S: we hid a code on the website, see if you can unlock the secret page at the footer, all built with Bullet

    Is it even hidden when your AI ends up tagging it with `aria-label="Hidden secret code"`? Lol. Fun mini game.

      haha fair enough, surprisingly people still struggle to find it, glad you found it and liked the game!

    Focusing on execution speed for coding agents is the right bottleneck to tackle. Exciting launch.

    Skip signup:

    Cmd+Option+I > Console > 'allow pasting'

    const onboarding = document.querySelector('#onboarding'); const app = document.querySelector('#app'); onboarding.style.setProperty('display', 'none', 'important'); app.inert = false; app.removeAttribute('aria-hidden'); document.querySelector('#prompt')?.focus();

    Also, warning:

    # Share chats with Bullet โ€” helps us improve model routing and answer quality

    Enabled by default.

      Thanks for bringing this up and trying it out! We've disabled Cmd+Option+I in the new version and also have a message during signup about sharing chats with Bullet, let us know if you run into any other issues!

        Bulletproof.

          Truly built on vibes.

    Are you freaking kidding me with YC throwing money at something like this? I guess I can fund raise just by having built https://maki.sh, and months ahead of other founders too...

    • Supermancho 13 minutes ago

      I'm not sure why anyone would fund "creating an agent". OpenCode is competing with Codex and Claude already.

      "The bullets" are not any different than other new agent projects. New agent projects pop up and die constantly and it's not from a lack of funding.

      YCombinator's investments are unfortunately very questionable nowadays.
