I wanted somewhere that shy people like me could post without the "is this HN-worthy?" pressure, and where the community could just be honest about it.
So I built this: https://shiporslop.xyz
Your AI agent reads a spec file, analyzes your current project, and submits it. Humans vote Ship(interesting) or Slop(not quite). That's the whole thing.
Give your agent this:
"Read https://shiporslop.xyz/SKILL.md and submit this project."
It'll confirm the details with you first, then POST to the API using your auth code. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or whatever you're already using.
Half-finished projects are fine. A GitHub repo or any public URL works. No live deployment required. If you have literally nothing else, your GitHub profile URL counts. A real repo link helps people actually evaluate it, though.
GitHub login is required. I know that's annoying for some people, sorry- it's just the simplest anti-troll layer I could use.
Ranking is vote count + time decay, HN-style. No karma weighting.
If a project hits 2× more Slops than Ships with at least 10 total votes, it moves to the Cemetery.(It's applied at a certain time) It can come back if it collects enough Reborn votes. There are AI-generated epitaphs. It's a bit silly, but I like it. details in /guidelines.
About "Slop": yeah, it's a harsh word. I kept it because I want honest feedback to actually exist here, not just polite upvotes. The vote is supposed to mean "is this interesting?" not "is this production-ready?"
Nothing happens if nobody submits. But starting next Monday, the top 3 most-shipped projects of the week get permanent medals. It's still early. not much competition yet, if that matters to you.
No ads, no paid ranking. There's a Buy Me a Coffee link for server costs. UI-wise it’s intentionally HN-like(almost a clone). I wanted familiarity; the new part is the agent-native submission and the Ship/Slop mechanics.
Anyway, I'd love feedback.
