Artem Murzin

Artem Murzin (born c. 2006–2007; age ~19 as of 2026) is a young Polish-based developer and entrepreneur. He is the founder of Conare, an AI IDE with persistent context management, and the creator of vibe-rules, a context management layer for AI coding assistants. He goes by @flowisgreat on X.^[1]

Career

Murzin learned to code entirely through AI tools and dropped out of university to pursue his projects full-time. In 2025, he won xAI's Grokathon (an AI hackathon hosted by Elon Musk's xAI company) in London.^[2]

His first notable project was vibe-rules — a system for managing AI coding context so that coding assistants retain project context, rules, and preferences across sessions. The project attracted attention in the developer community working with Claude Code, Cursor, and similar tools.

In October 2025 he launched Conare in alpha, described as "the world's most context-aware AI IDE." It adds a visual layer around Claude Code, providing reusable context blocks, configurable vibe-rules, and a live action view. The motivation, per Murzin: "For months I've been frustrated with LLMs' ability to get stuff done. They're not always at fault — most of the time they just lack context."^[3]

Conare received coverage from Tessl (a developer tools media company) and grew a user base among AI-assisted developers. Murzin also collaborated on Conare with vibe-tools developer Andrew (eastlondoner).

Connection to Jan

Jan identified Murzin as the highest-leverage immediate collaboration target in his 2025 network, describing him as "18-year-old with real revenue and mature product thinking." Jan was already discussing context management with Murzin when he formalised a plan to collaborate on vibe-rules — proposing a specific integration of Jan's context tools into the vibe-rules ecosystem. Jan saw a three-way partnership opportunity: Jan (Cloudflare + task automation) + Murzin (context management) + Andrew/vibe-tools (MCP + distributed systems).^[4][5]

October 2025: Conare Launch and Rapid Growth

In October 2025, Murzin launched Conare in alpha. It grew quickly: $15k in 2 weeks from the launch — described as one of the biggest bootstrapped launches in the indie hacker community.^[6] Jan noted this milestone with a post praising Murzin: "Artem is pushing developers further by giving them insight into their context windows, because agents are only as good as their contexts."^[6]

By late October 2025, Conare had shipped MCP integration — allowing users to turn MCPs on/off with a single click from within the IDE, with OAuth flows directly in Conare, token consumption visibility per MCP tool, and a real tokenizer for token counting.^[7]

Jan RT'd the Conare MCP announcement, noting: "I am trying to build the same in my new app contextarea. @flowisgreat beat me to it. really good improvement on mcp ux!"^[7]

October 2025: xAI Hackathon Win

Also in October–January 2026, Murzin's team participated in an xAI Hackathon in London where they won first place with "Grok runs for Mayor of London" — using Grok to search 20+ government APIs for waste and create viral campaign videos on X. Jan congratulated him on this win.^[8]

Jan RT'd the Conare announcement and called it the tool to use for agent orchestration when @theo complained that vibe-coded agent GUI apps used too much RAM.^[9]
