Show HN: Argus – An AI QA engineer: give it a URL and it tests your app
Argus is an AI QA engineer that takes plain English test descriptions, navigates your app like a human, and reports issues with video evidence. No selectors needed, so it withstands UI changes. It can also be called by coding agents via MCP to verify their work.
We ship most of our code with coding agents now, and testing became the problem: agentic coding is fast, but we can't test as quick as agentic coding.
That's a bottleneck.
So we built Argus.
You describe the flow in plain English:
- "verify checkout handles an empty cart"
- "register a new user with mail [email protected] and password Test123!, then comment on the
first post and check it appears"
- "apply discount code SAVE20 and check the total actually drops"
- "add two items, remove one, and check the cart badge updates"
It signs in, clicks through the app like a person, and reports where it broke, with a video. No selectors, so nothing breaks when the UI changes. Our coding agents also call it over MCP to check their own work.
We spent a considerable amount of time making it closer to a real human tester.

We're happy to hear any feedback, good or bad. If it breaks on your app, tell us and we'll dig in.
