Hello HN community! I'm excited to present TachyonGPT, a free tool for Azure DevOps (ADO): https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Neudesic...

Note: You'll need an OpenAI API key.

Backstory: As developers, we recognized the need to alleviate the tedious manual process of generating and refining GENERIC work items like features, user stories, acceptance criteria, etc. in Azure DevOps. These tasks, while important to understand the problem, often take time away from understanding the problem and talking to users. There's also the risk of missing stories and tasks. That's when we decided to marry the generative powers of OpenAI with ADO.

What's Different?: TachyonGPT fuses AI with ADO to auto-generate or enhance feature descriptions, user stories, acceptance criteria, and more. It’s built with a custom UI ensuring full control and integrates seamlessly with Azure DevOps.

Features:

1. Generate: Craft complete work items, from titles to child work items, using OpenAI. 2. Refine: Adjust generated results within TachyonGPT with custom prompts, ensuring specificity.

Data Privacy: Trust is paramount. TachyonGPT processes everything locally; no data entered is sent to Neudesic or third parties. Only API key information is stored for authenticating requests to OpenAI API.

Feedback: We're eagerly looking to refine TachyonGPT. Suggestions, ideas, or critiques are welcome!

Please note that TachyonGPT is designed to assist, not replace. It aids in initializing or refining work items, making the process more efficient. The final content is always under your control.

Appreciate your time and keen to hear your thoughts!
