Hey SI (say it out loud: "hey sea") is an invitation into a digital sea of possibilities, and you don't need to know how to swim in code to start. Hey SI was made by Matt for people who have great ideas and no coding background yet.
Frequently asked questions
Is my data safe with Hey SI?
Yes. You don’t need an account to buy, payments are handled by our checkout provider so we never see your card number, the site is HTTPS-only with no tracking cookies, and we only use your email for what you signed up for.
How do I keep my API keys safe when vibe coding?
Never paste real keys into an AI chat, keep them in a .env file listed in .gitignore, keep secret keys on the server (never in browser code), and run a secrets check before going live. If a key leaks, revoke and rotate it right away. See the free secure vibe coding guide.
What is vibe coding?
Vibe coding means building software by describing what you want to an AI coding tool in plain English, then testing and steering the result. It is great for small first apps; the Hey SI prompts help you do it one careful step at a time.
What is an AGENTS.md file?
AGENTS.md is a plain Markdown rules file in your project folder that tells AI coding agents how to behave. Cursor, Codex and GitHub Copilot read it; Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md, which can import AGENTS.md. The pack includes a beginner template.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. The pack is written for people who have never coded. The prompts ask the AI to explain things in plain language and to go one small step at a time.
Which AI coding tools does it work with?
Cursor, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Lovable, Bolt, Replit and Google AI Studio, plus most other chat-based AI coding tools. The prompts are plain text, so you paste them into whatever chat box your tool has.
Do I need to pay for an AI tool?
The pack doesn't include access to any AI tool. Many tools have free tiers or trials, but limits change often, so check each tool's current pricing.
Will this guarantee my app works?
No. AI tools still make mistakes. The pack gives you a clear step-by-step process (small steps, save points, careful debugging) that makes mistakes easier to catch and fix.
What kind of apps can I build with this?
Small web apps: trackers, to-do and habit apps, simple dashboards, booking or sign-up pages, personal tools.
Does it cover login, databases, and deploying?
Yes. There are dedicated prompts for adding a database, adding login, a safety check for exposed secrets, and deploying to Vercel or Netlify.
