Show HN: Huzzah – a novel approach to coding with AI
August 2026 Huzzah A new experimental way to code with AI If you’re a software engineer like me, the first few months of 2026 were incredible. Coding agents suddenly became good enough that we no longer needed to manually write code. But if you’re like me, then sometime later you hit a wall.

August 2026 Huzzah A new experimental way to code with AI If you’re a software engineer like me, the first few months of 2026 were incredible. Coding agents suddenly became good enough that we no longer needed to manually write code. But if you’re like me, then sometime later you hit a wall. The honeymoon period ended, and the novelty wore off. No more dopamine hits. It’s August, and I feel utterly fatigued. To be honest, I’m sick to death of writing longform English to describe every change I want to my codebase. However, I also don’t want to go back to writing all my code manually. There was real tedium in that practice that I’d prefer to avoid for…well, the rest of my life. And yet, I sense that I need to have better insight and control over what my code is doing.
