Gonfire is a tool for recording and reviewing how software engineering candidates interact with AI during coding assessments, focusing on behavioral patterns rather than attributing code authorship. It captures prompts, edits, pauses, and acceptance decisions to provide a session-level view of the candidate's workflow. While the concept is interesting for AI-assisted hiring, it lacks technical depth and broad utility beyond niche recruitment use cases.
Target audience: engineering managers, recruiters
