Reviewer scorecard
“API collections in git, no account required, and offline-first. This is how API clients should work.”
“Issue-to-PR workflow is the right abstraction. The planning step prevents the 'just generate code' antipattern.”
“One-time purchase vs subscription is refreshing. Git-native collections mean your API tests are version-controlled.”
“Still limited in what it can handle. Works for straightforward issues but struggles with anything architecturally complex.”
“Offline-first, git-native tools represent a pushback against SaaS subscriptions. Bruno leads this movement in API tools.”
“This is where all development is heading — describe what you want, AI plans and implements. GitHub has distribution advantage.”
