The tool aims to solve coordination and versioning problems by keeping prompts in git as a single source of truth, enabling teams to review outputs from production traces and generate change suggestions.", "body_md": "Hi HN, I'm Yousef. I've built a lot of agents for vertical AI startups in the past few years, and I've become convinced that *prompts are code, so must be kept in git*.\n\nThe startups that decouple do so because engineers *build* agents with git, and non-engineers (lawyers/clinicians/etc) *align* agents outside of git.\n\nSo the problem of coordination and versioning shifts to out-of-sync docs and platforms.\n\nThis is why I built Gravel.\n\nAn open-source library that embeds a prompt editor straight into your app. Your prompts have a single source of truth (your codebase).\n\nAfter a minute of setup:\n\n1. Your team can make prompt PRs without knowing what a PR is\n\n2. They can review outputs straight from your production traces\n\n3. Those reviews create prompt change suggestions and evals\n\nIf you're building vertical agents, would love your feedback on it!\n\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48280684](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48280684)\n\nPoints: 1\n\n# Comments: 0", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gravel-allow-non-engineers-to-make-prompt-prs", "canonical_source": "https://artanis.ai/gravel/", "published_at": "2026-05-26 14:53:47+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-05-26 15:09:20.177529+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-agents", "ai-tools", "ai-startups", "ai-products", "mlops"], "entities": ["Gravel", "Yousef"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gravel-allow-non-engineers-to-make-prompt-prs", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gravel-allow-non-engineers-to-make-prompt-prs.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gravel-allow-non-engineers-to-make-prompt-prs.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gravel-allow-non-engineers-to-make-prompt-prs.jsonld"}}
