Proto Bot Install Guide
Proto Bot takes the product ideas you jot down during the day and turns each one into a working prototype inside your actual codebase. Every prototype arrives as a draft pull request, together with screenshots of the click path and a short screen recording, so you can judge the idea without running anything yourself.
Because the work lands as a draft, nothing reaches your main branch on its own. The bot does not merge, publish or share a prototype until you say yes, which makes it safe to let it try bold ideas. It can also produce Figma mockups and quick images when a sketch explains an idea better than code. Its creator is Shub Gaur.
It suits founders and small product teams who have more ideas than time to test them. Keep each idea to a sentence or two, point it at a repository with a clean test setup and close drafts you do not want quickly, so the list of open pull requests stays easy to scan.

Worked Example: Testing a saved-search idea
Example only: an illustration of how a session could go, not a real client, case or result.
- In the evening you write that users should be able to save a search.
- The next morning a draft pull request appears with a small save button and a list page.
- Three screenshots show the path from search to saved list.
- A 20-second clip shows the feature in use.
- You leave one comment and close it, or hand it to a developer to finish.
Connect first
These are the tools the creator's setup uses. However you normally connect them works.
