Reticle is a verification layer for AI coding agents that instruments interactive elements in your codebase, captures runtime signals, and lets agents self-verify their output before shipping.
The core problem: AI agents can generate thousands of lines of code overnight, but humans still bottleneck the process by manually checking if it works. Reticle flips this—after each feature build, it pauses the agent, runs verification, feeds evidence back, and the agent decides whether to ship or iterate.
Setup is dead simple: give your AI agent the GitHub link, tell it to install Reticle, and it handles the rest. Works with any LLM (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq) as long as the harness is MCP-compatible (Claude, Manus, OpenCode).
Pricing: open source and free forever for indie devs, $49/month for heavier infrastructure usage. Already at 6-7K users and 120K npm downloads/month.
Founder Dibyanshu built this after his agent broke every feature overnight and existing tools failed to catch it. His vision: AI agents should be the developers now, not us checking their code. Reticle is the deterministic infrastructure layer to make agentic IDEs safe and scalable.
