Agentic CLI Security Tool - Indie Hacker Vlog #2
Video description
In this episode of my Indie Hacker Vlog, I continue brainstorming an Agentic CLI Security Tool - a developer security product focused on AI coding agents and command-line workflows.
In the previous episode, I started exploring product ideas and potential problems worth solving: https://youtu.be/_UzxWuOC6pk
This time, I go deeper into the Agentic CLI Security Tool idea and work through the product from both the business and engineering sides.
I cover:
- Who the target users and potential customers could be
- Functional requirements for the first version
- High-level architecture and system design
- Pros and cons of building this product
- What I should research and validate next
The goal of this series is to document the real process of building a software product from scratch - from finding and validating ideas to architecture, implementation, and eventually launching something people are willing to pay for.
If you're building developer tools, working with AI agents, or exploring your own indie hacker ideas, I'd be interested to hear how you would approach this problem.

A Better Way to Brainstorm Startup Ideas | Indie Hacking Vlog #3
In this video, Iām improving my indie hacking brainstorming process by using the How Might We technique to move from problems and product vision toward concrete product ideas. Instead of immediately brainstorming features or startup ideas, I start by defining the product vision: what problem I want to solve, who I want to help, and what outcome the product should create. I also explain the criteria I use to evaluate and vote on different directions.
