Show HN: FixBugs – Reproduce production bugs and verify fixes

Summary

FixBugs is an agent that ingests rich context around production bugs, reproduces them in a sandbox, and generates verified fixes. Available as a self-hosted VSCode extension and a GitHub app, it prioritizes code privacy and uses multiple AI models to review generated code for regressions.

I built FixBugs, an agent that ingests the rich context surrounding production bugs to reproduce them in a sandbox and generate verified fixes. It's available in the form of a self-hosted VSCode extension and as a Github app:

VSCode Extension: https://fixbugs.ai/go/vscode-extension

  • full code and data privacy.
  • zero data retention models opted out of training.

GitHub App: https://fixbugs.ai/go/github-app

  • we do access your code temporarily.
  • pick a repo to install FixBugs on.

What motivated me to build FixBugs were my years being on-call at Google and VMware. How many hours did I spend gathering logs, traces, reviewing metrics, and reading code only to find that,

  • Some context was missing.
  • The bug wasn't reproducible.
  • The alert was caused by a transient infrastructure issue.

Too many. Inefficiency in investigating staging/production bugs has a real cost, and it's paid both by developers and customers.

Current capabilities:

  • Reproduce the bug.
  • Identify the root cause.
  • Generate a fix.
  • Verify the fix.
  • Review the generated code using multiple AI models to help catch potential regressions.

Do try it and let me know what you think!

I'd especially love feedback from engineers who work with distributed systems or handle high-volume production bug triage.
