Show HN: Research-Git, regenerate a past idea onto today's codebase

Score: 7.3/10 (Innovation: 8, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 6)

research-git preserves code ideas as semantic 'Feature Capsules' in a graph, enabling regeneration of past intent onto current codebases—unlike git's tree-snapshot approach. It combines deterministic engine logic with agentic subagents (Claude Code, MCP) for capture and recall, targeting the pain of disentangling iterative experiments in agent and prompt engineering.

Target audience: backend devs, ai-ml engineers, prompt engineers
