About Event

​Walk away with a bot that works for you.


​Bots are the new apps.

​Apps were software you opened and operated. Bots are software you give a job to and talk with. A bot has a name, its own instructions, and its own permissions. Your PR reviewer. Your weekly research brief. The one that cleans up your spreadsheets.

​At Buildathon #1, people built exactly those, and they're live in the GitBot Library now.

​GitBot is the open-source app for building them, on the Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode subscription you already have. Build on this call and your bot is in the library the same night, with its own page and your name on it.


​The evening

  • ​How to build a bot. We make one live, start to finish.

  • ​What would you build? Everyone says the bot they want. We help shape it on the spot.

  • ​Demos. People on the call show the bots they built.

  • ​Publish. Your bot goes into the library before you log off.

​No panel, no slides after the first ten minutes.


​Before you join

​Install GitBot. Two minutes. You need Node 18 or newer.

​npm install -g @gitbot-hq/gitbot
cd ~/projects
gitbot start

​Swap ~/projects for whichever folder holds your code. Then open localhost:3000. Full setup is in the GitBot README.

  • ​Have Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode logged in. GitBot uses the login you already have.

  • ​Bring one job you do by hand every week. That's your bot.

  • ​Join from a laptop, not a phone.


​Who this is for

​Developers, PMs, founders, anyone who has used Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or OpenCode once. Already built a bot? Apply for one of four demo slots when you register. Students welcome. Any timezone if you're awake.


​Hosts

​Sahil Kathpal and Anil Dukkipatty: building GitBot.
