Convequity (@convequity) reportedSnyk is a clean postmortem for what happens when a security tool lives inside the coding agent’s loop. The product was mostly scan-and-warn. Find the issue, comment on the PR, suggest a fix. Blocking the merge usually sat in GitHub, not in Snyk. Bigger platforms smothered it. $PANW, $CRWD, and Wiz pulled AppSec into the bundle the CISO was already buying. GitHub was the main developer surface and put scanning where the code already lived. Then coding agents arrived and delivered the final blow. A lot of that scanning became something the agent could just do. Growth held up for a short while after the COVID/cloud tailwind. Then it decelerated hard. This is the same lens we use in Convequity’s SaaS Agentic Survival Evaluation Framework. The PANW, CRWD, and FTNT reviews go up on Convequity in a few days.

Gustavo Alessandri (@webgus) reportedIf 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.

Priyanshu Bhati (@buildwithpb) reported@CryptoWendyO @chainlink 30% error rate on github replies sounds like a recipe for accidental flame wars. good luck with the cleanup.

Ares (@neko23423) reportedI compared the latest OpenClaw vs Hermes Agent GitHub releases so you don’t have to. OpenClaw 2026.8.2 (Sep 1) vs Hermes Agent v0.21.0 (Aug 31). Not a feature-page remix. The actual repos. OpenClaw • 388,516 stars • 81,568 forks • ~86,300 commits • 6,070 open issues Hermes Agent • 239,503 stars • 48,930 forks • ~26,980 commits • 38,563 open issues Hermes is the smarter learner: skills from experience, cron that remembers, Bot Mode, hermes peer. OpenClaw is the personal-AI operating system: iMessage, iOS/Android, Linux companion, team Gateway, signed Foundation releases. The tell: Hermes ships `hermes claw migrate`. You only write a migrator for the incumbent. King in 2026: OpenClaw. Heir with the better mind: Hermes. If you’re picking a self-hosted AI agent this week, that’s the split. Bookmark this. The timeline is about to fill with takes from people who didn’t open either repo. OpenClaw vs Hermes Agent. Latest version. Real numbers.

Suryansh Tiwari (@Suryanshti777) reported6. 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]"

Harsha Kotcherlakota (@DPortkey) reportedAwesome Codex non-coding usecase: I had 1-2 TP Link Kasa smart outlets that always ended up falling off the network, and it drove me nuts. I set Codex on it. It found a github library for these devices, carefully examined them on my network and watched them fall off, and told me that even though they look identical, 2 of them were previous generation models that had *slightly* lower total wattage load support. It told me exactly how to tell them apart, and sure enough, that was that. 2 replaced outlets later and my connected devices have bene flawless. Months and months of irritation, gone because of 30 seconds of curiosity. Just try, you never know what you could fix! @victornunez

Rafael Audibert (@RafaAudibert) reported@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
-
Charles McDowell (@charlesmcdowell) reported@openclaw @github I still just want to know why there was even a new release of OpenClaw with nothing new that could compete with Hermes Agent? I was really excited for the release. Then, just like what seems like everybody else, incredibly let down.
-
small_j (@a_small_j) reported@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.

Shawn Yeager (@shawnyeager) reportedMy @bot keeps reaching for the browser and `gh` instead of using the GitHub plugin. Known problem?
-
John Crickett (@johncrickett) reported@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?

Lummox (@Lummox_eth) reportedMy own built Grok Bot turned $1,000 into $5,300 for last 17 hours. Now the project behind it is sitting around $25K market cap. We already pushed past $60K once and gonna hit $200k soon The bot is still running. The utility is almost ready. GitHub is live. Dev tokens are burned. I’m still buying. Nothing about the actual project changed because the chart went down. At $20K MC, this is the entry I personally like far more than chasing the first move. The target hasn’t changed either. $100K+ is where I want to take this next. $LUM is just getting started.

joithan (@jothantranston) reportedTHIS GUY BUILT A TINY AMOLED DESK BOARD JUST TO STARE AT HIS STRIPE NUMBERS it's a Waveshare ESP32-C6 touch panel that sits in your peripheral vision and cycles business metrics so you stop digging through Stripe > same ESP32-C6 board people use for Claude Code token meters, flipped to revenue > eight screens, five seconds each: MRR, new paid, paid subs, cancelled, ARR, ARPU, net 30d, failed > empty screens hide themselves so a young account sees a shorter loop > polls Stripe every five minutes on a read-only key (subscriptions + invoices) > marks itself stale instead of showing a number it can't vouch for > no soldering: flash over USB, finish Wi-Fi + key setup from your phone > data stays on the board; no project server in the middle firmware free on GitHub: cosjef/stripe-desk-display. board ~$30–$36 (Waveshare ESP32-C6-Touch-AMOLED-2.16). chat and terminal can't sit in your eye line for five hours. a tab you have to open is a tab you stop opening. this is what "the numbers find you" looks like as a brick on the desk.

Chris Gilbert (@0xgilbert) reportedDamn, GitHub has gone to ****. Features that have been cornerstones of solo devs and small businesses have been gutted or broken for months. How the mighty have fallen…

Jeremiah K (@neolaj) reported@TiborAntal Gradually figuring out how to scale coding agents. Started with 1, manually handling all the ***/GitHub work. Moved to 3 because I had more ideas than one agent could keep up with. That’s when the real problems started: squashing, merging, branch drift, conflicts. I ended up rebuilding the workflow around deterministic *** logic, worktrees, ephemeral branches, and syncing with the integration branch before changes begin. Now I’m running 6: • 1 orchestrator (Fable or Opus) • 4 coding agents • 1 integration agent reviewing and merging PRs Building the process around them was the hard part. Right now im just doing a couple of PRs (using ORCA on windows on my home computer)

Kim Burgaard (@kimburgaard) reportedBack when GitHub added Copilot PR reviews, it helped me keep up with the growing volume and size of our pull requests, which were increasingly being written by Copilot too. Over time I grew comfortable feeding Copilot's review comments straight back to Copilot to fix, and mostly spot checking when critical functionality was involved. When GitHub updated the Copilot pricing model I switched to Claude Code, but kept the Copilot review feature on for a couple of months. When the monthly bills for Copilot AI usage alone started rivaling the Claude Code Max plan, giving Claude Code PR review duties seemed like an obvious cost saving move. Plugging Claude Code into our PR review process immediately went south. The first PR churned with fixes to findings that resulted in more findings, and fixes that propagated up and down the call chain. I threw the PR away and started over, but the next attempt churned just as badly. Turn count on its own was never the signal. Copilot had taken ten turns on a rate-key cleanup the day before and nobody minded, because the findings thinned as it went — 5, 4, 3, 3, 3, 4, 1, 2 — and it merged. The cached-token billing PR I put through Claude Code took nine turns and produced 123 inline findings, and the ninth round was still returning fifteen. I closed it without merging. Looking closer at Claude Code's review findings, it was clear it reported far more issues than Copilot ever did, and among legitimate bugs and concerns, it made lots of comments about latent and speculative issues including possible race conditions and error propagation, things Claude Code would then try to fix one by one in isolation, often ignoring existing patterns in the code base. The code-review workflow is built into Claude Code and cannot be customized other than a few options, so the only place to intervene was on the other end, in the session where I used to just ask the coding agent to address the review findings. The first improvement was to direct Claude Code not to blindly fix all findings, but to defer findings not directly related to the task at hand to new issues. That helped reduce the PR churn, but blew up our issue backlog. The next improvement was to ask Claude Code to ignore speculative findings and disregard most latent findings unless they indicated high risk of unrecoverable damage in production. Finally, I had to stop Claude Code from authoring prescriptive issues with detailed implementation instructions. The result is a skill that triages PR review findings, and a skill for authoring and updating issues. After a few iterations of the skills, I've been able to complete ten PRs over a couple of days, bringing back the pace we had before. I've made the skills available in a public GitHub repository (link in the first reply). Let me know if you find them helpful.

∆LΞX∆NDΞR D∆VIS (@_AlexanderDavis) reported@egavrilenko11 @bot I had to update my fine grain token for GitHub and now when it tries to authenticate the plugin, I'm getting the error: GitHub didn't provide a sign-in link My bot said: Known host bug, not you. The GitHub Authenticate button tries OAuth GitHub does not support. Checking whether a PAT on the plugin page is the working path. That's a Grok Bot host bug, still open: cursor/plugins#251. GitHub's connector is PAT-only. The Authenticate button tries OAuth GitHub does not support, so you get "didn't provide a sign-in link." Don't keep hitting it. But it worked before I updated my fine grain token...

Duncan Rogoff (@DuncanRogoff) reportednine stages, one build, one move tonight. it's a Claude Code skill i built. free, in my freeskills repo. it's called Claude Orientation. you type /claude-orientation and answer two questions: which stages you've actually finished, and every project you're currently thinking about. beginners don't fail from lack of ideas. they fail from having five and finishing none. that's a sequencing problem, and this fixes the sequence instead of your willpower. - places you on a 9-stage beginner arc: install, memory, website, landing page, skills, game, agents, content, distribution - your stage is the first one you haven't finished, so it won't let you skip - cuts your project list to one build, then shrinks it until it can ship in five 90-minute nights - writes five nights of one-line moves, and night 5 is always send it to a real person - hands you the exact text to paste into Claude tonight - sketches a 30-day arc, one line per week, so you know what comes after - everything that got cut goes in a parking lot, so nothing feels lost - saves all of it to a roadmap file you reopen every session so you finish one live thing this week instead of holding four half-built folders forever. open the file, do the move, rewrite the next line before you close the laptop. no setup. copy the folder into your skills directory, restart, and you have a plan for tonight. free, and it stays free. 👉 github repo in the replies
