CLI Tool
Show HN: Whatdidido – CLI to summarize your work from Jira/Linear I built this after spending days every year manually searching through Jira tickets to remember what I'd accomplished for performance reviews.

whatdidido is a CLI tool that:

- Pulls tickets from Jira or Linear for a date range

- Uses an LLM to create short summaries of each ticket

- Generates an overall summary to help you build your self-evaluation

The tool doesn't write your review for you—crafting thoughtful, contextual feedback still requires human judgment. It just eliminates the busywork of finding and organizing what you worked on.

Key details:

- MIT licensed, open source

- No data storage—everything stays local

- Requires OpenAI or OpenRouter API key

- Works with Jira and Linear (more integrations welcome/coming soon)

I'm releasing it now because I think others might find it useful during review season.

Would love feedback on the approach and what other integrations would be helpful. Happy to answer questions about how it works.

Show HN: Matrirc – run irssi in 2026, talk to people on Matrix This solves no real problem — Element works, there&#x27;s already a Matrix-to-IRC bridge running on half the FOSS networks, and probably nobody under 30 has opened irssi voluntarily this decade.<p>I wrote it anyway because I miss Esc 4 and clunky window-split commands.<p>Matrirc is a local IRC server that speaks Matrix on the back. Point irssi at localhost:6667, log in with Matrix creds, rooms show up as channels.<p>brew tap pawelb0&#x2F;tap brew install matrirc
