Is it open source? I can hardly imagine giving access to my code to another service without a clear understanding what it does

#13naming things is hard. Googling for other things already named this shouldn't be.

#14It asks for access to my private repos. I don't want to give a brand-new AI tool access to my private repos. But if it looking at my private repos was optional, I would try it.

I get that! In order to check out the repo, these permissions are required though. What could I do to make you feel comfortable granting those permissions?

It's not open source. Do you have any specific questions about what it does? I'm still working on how to better communicate this to users.

It would be much better to allow granting access to only a single repository, rather than complete and absolute access to all the repositories in an account.

Complete transparency and clarity about how data is used, stored, what systems get to see it, and minimizing privileges would be a starting point IMO.
Ask yourself the same question: what would make you feel comfortable handing the keys to your GitHub account to me, haswell, for a tool that I decide to share here?

#19Let's say I want to have a somewhat genereric CRUD-app: A database, some application logic, a login system, logging/telemetry and a UI.
What kind of stack should I use so that tools like Darwin (or just plain old copilot) can be most effective?

Most effective in what way? Are you looking to generate an app from scratch or have AIs work on an existing project?
