# Entire.io 30 Hacker News commenters recommended Entire.io and 24 criticized it, November 2025 to November 2026. It was recommended in 6 of 13 months. **Verdict:** Developers building with AI agents like it for saving agent sessions with git commits, though critics doubt it is more than git tooling. ## Why people recommend it - Fits into existing agent workflows (3 comments): "the (interesting!) CLI that shipped today is very much for developers who are busy building with agents" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46969207)) "hooks into the existing workflow for those developers, in Claude Code and in Gemini CLI" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46971406)) "It might also be a tool which you could compose into your workflow" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47163134)) - Drop-in GitHub replacement that just works (2 comments): "basically creating a fast drop-in replacement for GitHub that just works for me" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50251718)) "no email or password . just read the skill.md and your agents can do the full git lifecycle in under a minute" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48584874)) - Open source CLI works with git (2 comments): "The CLI is open source, everyone can use it and it does work with git only." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46963085)) "I use the Entire.io CLI and I find it useful." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49338150)) - Users recommend it enthusiastically (2 comments): "I've been using entire for the last month and can't recommend it enough" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50248753)) "there's no going back! It's amazing!" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50249132)) ## What people warn about - Better as git tooling than platform (3 comments): "I'm skeptical of building this as a separate platform rather than as tooling on top of git." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46962962)) "This feels like a feature that should be added to GitHub." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46963607)) "The whole company is a post-commit hook with a marketing team." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46967476)) - Unclear value and high valuation (4 comments): "an AI dev tool that basically hooks onto Git/Claude Code/terminal session history is worth multiples of $60+ million dollars" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46970697)) "Sure... you `git add` and context text generated by AI and `git commit` it, could be useful. Does that worth 60 million?" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46968841)) "a dev tool that's seemingly failing to resonate with developers as to why they would pay for this" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46971429)) - Duplicates what developers already do (2 comments): "all I gathered is that it dumps the context into the commit. I already do this." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46966814)) "It's trivial to do this and there are so many ways people do things" ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46965800)) - Breaks commit messages or plugins (2 comments): "It mucked up my commit messages by replacing the first line with a sort of AI request title or similar." ([source](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46975254)) "It doesn't seem to work if you use Claude plugins like feature-dev and commit-push-pr."
