Show HN: Bsub.io – zero-setup batch execution for command-line tools

Looks cool. Also looks like it's not self-hostable. Is that correct? For a tool like this I want to deploy it where I need it and (at least for me) a SaaS option is a deal breaker.

The only thing I've found similar to this as of late is AutoKitteh [0]. This looks like it is somewhat in the same competitive space, but with less features / flexibility. How would you say you compare and did it not fulfill the problem you originally had?

It's not self-hostable yet: I'm thinking about adding this option. I think for now I'm trying to see if people would like to give it a shot and try it out.

Why do you think it's a deal breaker for you?

Because when I'm running infra just to manage scripts for me I want them in proximity to other apps or services I'm already running. There's very few SaaS that will offer a way to connect privately (e.g. Tailscale).

Ultimately I want this in my stack. Autokitteh let's me do it my way, so this is a deal breaker for me. I also don't want to get stuck in SaaS only to have it enshittififed in a few years.

Sounds good. bsub.io will offer a way to be self-hosted 100% offline too. Just not now. That will require some work.
