devnexus creates a shared persistent memory system for AI coding agents working across multiple repositories and sessions. It spins up an Obsidian-based knowledge vault that gets synced via git every ~60 seconds, allowing multiple agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, OpenAI Codex) to share architectural decisions, API contracts, data schemas, and cross-repo code graphs — with proper version history. The core problem it solves is "agent amnesia" on teams where multiple developers use different AI tools. Each agent starts every session fresh, unaware of decisions made by the agent next door. devnexus gives them all a common memory store that persists across sessions and codebases. Created April 14, 2026, it's early-stage but addresses a pain point that becomes more acute as teams scale up AI-assisted development. The Obsidian format is a clever choice: the vault is human-readable, searchable with standard tools, and works as a documentation layer even without the AI integration. Git sync means there's a full audit trail of what the agents "knew" at any given time — useful for debugging why an agent made a surprising architectural choice.

Social Fetch is a unified API platform that lets developers scrape profiles, posts, comments, videos, and transcripts from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and Facebook in real time. Built by indie developer Luke (lukem121), it unifies six social platforms behind a single TypeScript SDK with OpenAPI spec support and a pay-as-you-go credit model — no monthly commitment, no rate limits, 100 free credits to start. The core problem Social Fetch solves is fragmentation. Each major social platform has incompatible APIs (or no public API at all), constantly changing endpoints, and aggressive bot detection. Building and maintaining scrapers for all six platforms is a multi-month engineering effort that quickly becomes a maintenance burden. Social Fetch abstracts all of that away behind a clean, consistent interface that works today. For AI builders specifically, social data is increasingly the raw material for training data pipelines, competitive intelligence agents, content analytics, and trend detection. Social Fetch landed #3 on Product Hunt with 234 upvotes on launch day, suggesting significant demand. The pay-as-you-go pricing is appealing for projects with variable data needs, and the free credit tier lets teams evaluate it without any upfront commitment.
Reviewer scorecard
“Agent amnesia is a real tax on multi-engineer teams using AI tools. devnexus's approach of using Obsidian + git means the memory is portable, auditable, and doesn't depend on any specific AI provider's memory feature. It's rough around the edges but the concept is sound and I'd build on top of it today.”
“Maintaining scrapers for six platforms is genuinely painful. If Social Fetch keeps up with API changes and anti-bot measures, the time savings alone justify the cost. The TypeScript SDK and OpenAPI spec mean zero friction to integrate.”
“This is a four-day-old project solving a genuinely hard problem in the simplest possible way — which means it'll break in interesting edge cases immediately. Obsidian vault conflicts under git are a known pain point, and 60-second sync cycles could create race conditions on busy teams. Wait for it to survive contact with a real multi-engineer setup.”
“Scraping LinkedIn and Instagram at scale almost certainly violates their ToS, and both platforms have sued scrapers before. Using this in a production application carries real legal risk that isn't disclosed on the landing page.”
“Shared agent memory is the missing coordination primitive for AI-assisted software teams. devnexus is a minimal implementation of an idea that will eventually be built into every enterprise AI coding platform. Getting ahead of that curve now — even with rough tooling — gives teams a learning advantage.”
“Real-time social data is the nervous system of AI-powered market intelligence. A unified cross-platform API turns social media into a structured data source that agents can actually reason over.”
“For design systems and component libraries shared across repos, the idea is compelling — agents that remember 'we use this button component, not that one' would save a lot of correction cycles. But until this is more than a four-day-old script, I'd treat it as inspiration rather than infrastructure.”
“For content creators tracking trends and competitors across platforms, this is a tool that would save hours of manual monitoring weekly. The pay-as-you-go model means you only pay when you're actually using it.”
