Comment on: Show HN: Broccoli, one shot coding agent on the cloud
by auszeph
Built similar for internal use at our work. Slack+JIRA though, not Linear. Otherwise GCP-native like this.I didn't want to be on the hook for supporting an open source version though, so never made it public. Good on you for putting it out there.A few differences I can quickly spot, fwiw...I went with Firestore over Postgres for the lower cost, and use Cloud Tasks for "free" deduping of webhooks. Each webhooks is validated, translated, and created as an instant Cloud Task. They get deduped by ID.We see a lot of value in a scheduler. So running a prompt on a schedule - good for things like status reports, or auto log reading/debug.I prefer to put my PEMs in to KMS instead of Secret Manager. You can still sign things but without having to expose the actual private key where it can be snooped on.I run the actual jobs on spot VMs using an image baked by Packer with all the tooling needed. You don't run in to time/resource limits running them as Cloud Run jobs?
