    recently integrated Resend into @supercodeai review so founders get PR alerts with real risk context I'm amazed what we found out when we put @coderabbitai / @greptile through the same PR: 1) coderabbit / greptile: - stamped it “low risk, mergeable” (4/5) clean - forgot context from the last PR - no tests suggested, no safety checks - zero memory of previous regressions 2) supercode review on the exact same PR - flagged a real vulnerability in the diff - noticed i’d pushed credentials into `.env.example` - pulled in history from past PRs + explaining how this change could affect and break them - downgraded it to "medium risk, fix before merge" state - attached concrete fixes + patches scoped by severity this is the difference between 'LLM summarizer for github' and an actual swe agent that cares about your production

    LOOP RAT ROADMAP: WHAT'S NEXT, AND WHAT IT'LL NEVER BECOME v0.3.3 today. 3 loops, 55 checks, 0 services here's where it's headed: > 0.4 - read the night faster: rat watch live-tails a running shift, rat replay reruns one from its saved prompt, a weekly digest instead of seven separate pages > 0.5 - off the laptop: run-due moves into GitHub Actions, state lives on a branch, rat cron --launchd survives a closed lid > 0.6 - sharper graders: swappable rubric packs, two graders disagreeing becomes your queue for the day > 0.7 - the work itself: a worktree per shift, so a failed night never dirties your tree > 1.0 - trust: a hash-chained trace nobody can quietly rewrite what it will never have: > no web dashboard - the terminal already knows where the files are > no database - plain files outlive the tool that wrote them > no hosted service - nothing to sign up for, nothing to shut down > no auto-merge - the rat proposes, the morning decides every item ships behind a flag: dry run -> report only -> one repo -> a week of receipts -> default on a feature that can't run as a dry run doesn't get written the rat is boring on purpose. every version keeps it that way

    @ArcyloOfficial Get comfy! For me, my Gmail is a connector. This is OAuth into my inbox. Grok can: • search and read mail (body, headers, attachments) • draft replies • send / reply / forward if you grant write/send • label, trash, organize Base hook is often read-only. Send is an extra permission you click on purpose. If you connect it, the bot is sitting in the same box as bank alerts and 2FA codes. That is the whole risk. You can revoke anytime. Grok Bot can also skip my inbox and get its own address (AgentMail / similar plugins). Then it sends and receives from something@….agentmail.to, not from you. I use that if I want an agent that emails people without reading my personal mail. My GitHub OAuth into the GitHub user I sign in as. With the scopes I approve it can: • read public and private repos that account can see • search code, list branches, summarize PRs • open/update issues • create branches, push files, open/review/merge PRs • delete files if write is on Private repos work only if I granted repo (or equivalent) at connect time. Safer pattern: tell it to branch + PR, not push straight to main. Same revoke page. What it cannot do by default • It does not get your password. • It does not stay logged in if you disconnect the connector. • It does not magically see my GitHub orgs I never authorized. • Connecting email does not connect GitHub, and the other way around. Practical rule for me Do not hook personal Gmail if that inbox has 2FA and money mail unless you want an assistant reading it. GitHub is useful if I chose to still keep repos, ask it to show the diff before any write. If you only wanted “what does this button do,” that is the button: it is not a viewer badge. It is a key you can take back. This is what I’m experiencing with learning to use it. It’s different and I’m starting to like it.

    @theo If GitHub is down does it fall back to a cached version I’m guessing?

    @smalldocs_org recently crossed 200 stars on GitHub and 20 forks. SmallDocs is the first open source project I've managed. Handling other people's pull requests is not easy (and I need to improve). They implement features you're not considering and fix bugs you didn't know you had. Extremely useful, but if you're squeezed for time and trying to develop core functionality, it's hard to manage both things well.

    🔥 Trending on GitHub: Ponytail Ponytail helps Claude Code avoid writing code that does not need to exist. That means less clutter, fewer unnecessary dependencies, and simpler changes to maintain. Before custom code, it checks whether the feature is needed and whether the codebase, platform, standard library, or an existing dependency already solves it. It also reviews work, audits implementation complexity, and tracks unnecessary token use without dropping validation, error handling, security, or accessibility requirements. In reported Claude Code sessions on a FastAPI and React repository, Ponytail used about 54% less code, 20% less cost, and 27% less time than the no-skill baseline. Those measurements came from 12 feature tasks, so results vary with the work. Full analysis in the first reply ↓

    @SentientSquirel @linuxuser1996 So you are you scared of github then. Look dude I have fun on computers and don't take myself seriusly because I have destroyed enough OS's over to not worry about it because I just fix it, If the contents of your PC make you this paranoid its time to check your kink.

    @threepointone I am of two minds, the issue is that GitHub provides a very generous free tier for hobbyists (brilliant!) but also has extremely poor reliability for enterprise (terrible!)

    If you find an error, have an idea, or want to propose an improvement, just open an issue or fork it on Codeberg or GitHub. Contributions are welcome. That’s exactly the point.

    $MSFT changed its reporting structure today. Starting in FY27, Microsoft will report just two segments: Agents & Infra Devices & Consumer Agents & Infra includes Azure, Microsoft 365, GitHub, server products and industry solutions. For context, those businesses generated $268B in revenue last year, compared with $64B for Devices & Consumer. Microsoft also recast its Q1 guidance under the new structure: Agents & Infra: $75.15B to $75.75B Devices & Consumer: $14.7B to $15.2B There is no change to total revenue guidance. These are the same numbers Microsoft gave in July, reorganized under the new segments. Mostly a reporting change, but an interesting look at how Microsoft now groups the majority of its business internally.

    @madebygps @github Tried using it with my agents (the main benefitor from this) but it doesnt really work because you cant use it with GitHub app user tokens (ghu_). Can that be changed somehow? All cloud agents will have that problem, and most of our coding happens trough cloud agents now

    6. The Dependency Incident Check Grok has native real-time search across X. Breakage gets posted there hours before the GitHub issue is triaged. No other coding model has that feed. "You are a build engineer whose first move on a broken pipeline is to work out whether it broke for everyone or only for me. Search X and the web, last 14 days. Check: - Is anyone else reporting this failure with this package and version, and when did the reports start - The exact release that changed behaviour, and the changelog line that admits it - Whether maintainers have acknowledged it and what they recommended - The pin or patch people settled on, with the tradeoff of each - Whether this is my problem instead, and what evidence points that way Give me the verdict in the first line: their bug or mine. Then the evidence, newest first, with links. My failure: [PASTE THE ERROR, THE PACKAGE AND VERSION, AND WHAT CHANGED ON YOUR SIDE RECENTLY]"

    end-of-summer snapshot for @QFEX : -~$222M in open interest -CLI v0.3.12 shipped in August with improved installation docs and a go.mod fix -GitHub activity continued through late August not a flashy launch recap, just a quick look at how the exchange is closing out the summer: more markets, meaningful liquidity, and active work on the tooling side still early, but the infrastructure is clearly moving

    @bjmtweets Would love to hear your thesis on gitlab. I’m a software engineer, and in my experience, gitlab has been slow to everything and generally is the red headed stepchild next to GitHub. It suffers from lack of network effects, there are solutions to everything on GH, but not GL.

    @mittsh I was trying to find an open-source alternative for Tailscale when I first needed it. I guess AI suggested some OSS options, but they didn't have many stars on GitHub. AI didn't suggest Nebula. The Tailscale plan was free, so I just installed it and forgot about it. For Nebula, I think it is a distribution problem.

    First surprise: a GitHub issue form isn’t a form. It’s a YAML file. You describe the field- this one’s a dropdown, this one’s required and GitHub builds the UI from that. I did not know that.

    I personally hated Claude because it refused to do almost anything I asked it to do so have no idea of how the speed is but gemini-cli was unusable for non enterprise users. Github CoPilot both GUI and cli is pretty good. Grok Build is what I'm using mostly and not yet had any issues with the speed but I want to go full local asap, scouting for 3090's atm. Just to be able to run "uncensored" models that don't ***** like Claude is reason enough for me to prefer local over Cloud but also cloud is ******* expensive, I have SuperGrok 100$/month and CoPilot Max 100$/month and that is barely enough. I'm trying to make my own Jarvis so I need to build my own RAG, memory, librarian, SRE Agent that understand how to use all tools and I also get crazy new idea's all the time lol Just made my first alpha of a tool that can wipe basically anything you don't want in Windows11. Basically Chris Titus clone but on steroids, this isn't just a debloater, it's a Grim Reaper 💀

    @Mike_Preston17 I don't think they water them down, why would they when they're competing on having AGI? I don't mind using GitHub actions to run tests and builds against a branch before merge. I don't want it triggering production schedules. Do you list all the things it shouldn't do in the prompt?

    @github A repeatable --attach flag turns CLI reports into reproductions: inline screenshots in issues mean a bug gets fixed in one pass instead of two round-trips for context.

  • txbrraa
    tobarra (@txbrraa) reported

    GitHub just fixed the biggest problem with vibe coding. They just released Spec Kit and it already has +126K stars in a short time. The idea? Instead of throwing out vague prompts and praying the agent doesn't break your project… Spec Kit forces the AI to create a structured specification BEFORE touching any code. The AI first understands what you want to build, asks about anything missing, organizes the project, and only then starts coding. That means less time fixing absurd bugs, less inconsistent code, and much more predictable results when working with agents. The flow is simple: /constitution → rules and standards /specify → what you want to build /clarify → open questions before starting /plan → architecture and stack /tasks → ordered tasks /implement → execution Compatible with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex, Gemini CLI, and +25 agents. 95K stars. 8K forks. Open source. Published by GitHub.

    @pfernan95dev For the SEO part there's one thing that I've been also doing: Ask your agent what keywords you should search for relevant to your app on answerthepublic, perplexity and google Gather all that info old fashion, by yourself - might take around 2 hours but it's worth it Plug all that info into the agent and have it give you 5 titles for 5 articles Make it write those articles - maybe use nosoopai github or edit them manually so they seem more human like Connect the agent to google console After 1 month tell the agent to review the results If no article took off you can wait one more month or put up 5 more After the next month check what worked and double down on that

    Possibly found an issue in @github stack system It does not allow to re-target the base branch of a PR stack as you can generally do that on a single PR. Requires you to unstack and setup a new stack with updated base branch.
