Nikolay Konovalov (@br11k_dev) reported@Tristanrhee3 And GitHub sponsors thingy is so slow I submitted it like a week ago. Still not approved what the hell My expenses arent terribly high but Warsaw rent is like $2k/mo $500 ZUS $1.5k groceries for two people That’s pretty much it I wish I could move into low cost area but moving out is gonna cost a lot because 2x rent price deposit, so I have to suck it up Anyway, my plan is Upwork and finishing my job tracker so I can send faster than 5 applications a day. I refuse to send out 100 applications per day like some people do spray and pay It makes everyone miserable. If people aren’t hiring your spam doesnt make things better You just mopping floors and hiring problem sits above you, 3 floors up there leaky faucet you can’t even reach This has to be collective effort to fix this problem But we have to start with ourselves and stop spamming applications at least And do genuine company research, being responsible Thanks for reading.

🃏 (@anupamrjp) reportedDear hiring manager who rejected me before I even applied, Thank you. Genuinely. You built a filter for people who can memorize solutions to problems that don’t exist anymore. I slipped through the cracks. Into the part of tech where nobody’s checking your LeetCode score, your internship history, or why exactly you got banned from campus placements. They’re only asking one question here: Does it work? Four years of 9.1 CGPA taught me how to pass tests. Six months of building taught me that the test was wrong. Ship dates don’t care about your GPA. Users don’t care about your GitHub commits. Revenue doesn’t care where you ranked in placements. The leaderboard got reset. And I’m starting from the same place as everyone else Except I have nothing to unlearn. See you at the top. I’ll be the one with the receding hairline and the profitable SaaS

West Lord (@MyWestLord) reportedA GitHub repo with just 571 stars handed Claude the ability to test its own code, and it took 185 seconds to install. It’s called auto browser, and it quietly killed the most annoying part of my workflow. Until now, every time Claude or Codex built me a WordPress plugin, I was the middleman who had to load it, click around, hunt for the broken part, and report back like a human bug tracker. Now a local WordPress sandbox runs on my machine, and auto browser sits between the agent and the screen, so the agent ships a plugin, opens the browser, tests it, catches the error, and patches it before I ever look. The first plugin threw an error, but the second installed clean and ran on its own across 2 fresh workspaces. I write 1 instruction file pointing the agent at the sandbox, paste it into every session, and the whole loop closes without me touching anything. The agent stopped asking me what broke, because now it just checks itself. The middleman was me, and now it’s gone.

nasuy (@n_asuy) reportedi think @xai should be ADE. now they have a chat, cursor, enough coding models and harnesses, strong signal like bookmarks or down votes, video creatives, profile / chat / relationship contexts. if so, we don't have to depend on discord or any chat apps. easy to invite x people to cowork. there is no need to connect Linear, Slack, or GitHub to another platform and ask that platform to solve their problems. true AI chat is a SNS, not a single UI. there is a UX that only xAI can realistically build in the world.

Alpha Batcher (@alphabatcher) reportedDavid Soria Parra: "2026 is all about connectivity, and the best agents use every available method" A coding agent needs access to the same places you check while building: - repo and PRs - docs - browser - database - error logs - Figma - tasks - payments The article gives the 11 MCP servers for that setup: - Context7, GitHub, Playwright first - Supabase or Neon, Sentry, Firecrawl next - Figma, Linear, Stripe when you need them - Filesystem, ***, Memory, Sequential Thinking as the base Read it if you keep copying code, docs, schemas, screenshots, errors, and tickets into Claude Code by hand

李新宝 (@lixinbao_X) reportedJust watched KK's technique. Damn. Absolute game-changer. Install 7 skills in Codex. Writing, images, covers, PPTs. Full pipeline, done. The principle is dead simple. Break the workflow into 7 parts. One skill per part. Only do one thing. Step 1 Open GitHub, find a repo. Copy the link locally. Create a project folder to save it. Step 2 Write the skill description. Input three things. What it does. What the input is. Output and acceptance criteria. Step 3 Run it and find the bottlenecks. Where it stalls Create a new skill and break it down. Don't let one skill Do 7 things it's bad at. This works for writers, Xiaohongshu creators, WeChat pub runners, Video script writers. How many skills you got installed? Have you tried it yet?

Financial Programmer (@RBiancoUS) reportedA dose of reality for end of week. My biggest question is I can't find any reason for the $Gold panic- did they find gold is causing cancer or radioactive? Selling looks like sheer panic. Would you believe someone asks in DM, so how did *you* get so many followers. Then he lets me brew on it for a day and comes back, I was joking do you have a github, presumably to get some code. No wonder I worked alone. I'm challenged socially guess not alone. After a night of 3 scammers one from Nigeria, one Africa. I need to lock dm down or find a way to restrict

Jay.TL (@JayTL00) reportedThree AI labs shipped the same feature within one hour today. That's not competition. That's a signal the unit of interaction just changed. For two years, the atomic unit of working with an AI agent was one prompt. You type. It responds. You type again. Every workflow was a chain of prompts, rebuilt from scratch each time. Today, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Cursor all shipped features that only make sense if the unit is no longer the prompt. The unit is now one workflow. 1. OpenAI Codex Record & Replay (3,807 likes): Do a task once on your Mac. Codex watches. It turns your demonstration into an inspectable, editable skill you can reuse. Not a prompt. A recorded procedure. 2. Cursor /automate (1,085 likes): Describe what you want in plain language. Cursor configures the triggers, instructions, and tools automatically. Plus five new GitHub triggers and Computer Use enabled by default for cloud agents. 3. Anthropic Claude Code Artifacts (6,829 likes): Your coding session becomes an interactive, shareable page. PR walkthroughs, project dashboards, living documentation. Shared at a private link, like a Figma file but for agent work. Each one alone is a feature release. Together they describe the same shift from three different angles: the agent session is becoming a reusable, shareable, composable artifact. Read them as one move: - Input side (Codex): teach by showing, not by writing - Configuration side (Cursor): describe in language, system assembles the wiring - Output side (Anthropic): the result of a session is a shareable object, not a chat log The Karpathy framing was right — we're moving from prompt iteration to plan, execute, verify, loop. What he didn't name is that this loop needs to be portable. A workflow locked inside one chat thread is useless the moment you close the tab. But here's what most coverage missed. Codex Record & Replay requires Computer Use enabled. That means OpenAI is watching your screen while you demonstrate an enterprise workflow. The EU version is blocked at launch. That's not a regulatory footnote — the entire feature is built on continuous screen access, and the EU looked at it and said no. Which raises the question nobody is asking: who owns the recorded workflow? You demonstrated an expense-filing procedure that touches your company's internal tools. Codex turned it into a skill. Where does that skill live? Can OpenAI see it? Is it training data? The product copy says you control when recording starts and stops — but says nothing about what happens to the recording after. There's also a fragmentation problem hiding in plain sight. Three companies, three proprietary formats for the same primitive. A workflow you record in Codex doesn't run in Cursor. An artifact you build in Claude Code doesn't render in OpenAI's product. We're watching the agent-workflow layer fragment into three walled gardens before it even solidifies. This is the SaaS integration mistake repeated, except worse. SaaS integrations are wrappers around APIs. These workflows encode institutional knowledge — how your team ships code, how your finance team files reports, how your ops team handles incidents. That's not data. That's operational IP. The economic implication: every recorded workflow is switching cost. The more skills you build inside Codex, the harder it becomes to leave. The more automations you configure in Cursor, the more your team's muscle memory is locked to one editor. Anthropic's artifacts are softer — they're shareable — but they only render inside Anthropic's ecosystem. The deeper question isn't which feature is best. It's whether the agent-workflow layer will be open or closed. Today, three companies bet on closed. Nobody shipped an export button.

Alexey Samoylov (@metalagman_dev) reported@geminicli Antigravity CLI is a trash, closed source, full of bugs. They don't even read issues on the github.

./can (@shcansh) reportedGitHub forcing safer defaults in actions/checkout v7 is a necessary move to kill the notorious pwn request, but the real risk is developers blindly copy-pasting the bypass flag to quiet build failures. Starting July 16, 2026, this fork-blocking behavior gets backported to all major floating tags. Since raw *** CLI steps remain unprotected, will this actually clean up GitHub Actions security, or will teams just use allow-unsafe-pr-checkout as a quick fix?

Maurice Heumann (@momo5502) reported@disarray00 If you have concrete recommendations, I would love to hear them, either as GitHub issue, maybe even a PR. But also as a comment here, I'd appreciate it. So when speaking about redundancy, what precisely?

Tymofii Antonenko (@tymofii) reported@prinseccoo Are you using Claude Code or an MCP server? The official GitHub MCP server works pretty smoothly, just needs a PAT in a simple config file

YNWA🐦🔥 (@YNWAcrypto) reportedThe problem isn’t subtle. GitHub Sponsors has paid out ~$50M total since 2019. core-js: 9 billion downloads, running on half the top 10k sites on earth. Its maintainer was making ~$600/month when he called open source “fundamentally broken.”

Akshay Shinde (@ConsciousRide) reported@theo This exact damaged app error has been open on their GitHub since February. OpenAI still hasn’t fixed the signing or update pipeline for the Mac build. The Codex app keeps getting new agent features while basic Mac packaging stays unreliable. Priorities are obvious.

revayz (@0xrevayz) reportedAndrej Karpathy: "90% of Claude's mistakes come from missing context, not a weak model" Without CLAUDE.md the mistake rate is 41%. With proper rules it drops to 3% You don't need a better AI. You need better loops Most people still prompt one task at a time and fix the answers themselves. That means the human is still the loop Boris Cherny from Anthropic said it best: "I don't prompt Claude anymore. My job is to write loops" The shift is simple. Stop giving instructions. Start designing systems that run themselves: Discover -> Plan -> Execute -> Verify -> Iterate until it passes The 6 things that make loops actually work: -Automations that trigger without you -Worktrees so agents don't overwrite each other -Skills that load context instantly -Connectors to real tools like GitHub and Slack -Subagents where the checker is never the maker -Memory so the loop never starts from zero Prompt engineers ask AI for outputs Loop engineers design systems that produce verified outcomes A reliable loop beats a perfect prompt every time Stop being a prompter. Start being the loop engineer

Build Fast with AI (@BuildFastWithAI) reportedThe hardest part of building AI agents in 2026 isn't writing the code. It's knowing what your agent actually did. Your agent made 40 tool calls, called 3 LLMs, hit a rate limit, retried twice, and returned a wrong answer. Which step broke it? Without observability you're reading logs and guessing. This is what Laminar is built for. Open-source observability platform purpose-built for AI agents. One decorator. Full trace of every LLM call, tool execution, and custom function - automatically. What makes it different from generic APM tools: SIGNALS - describe failures in plain English. "Agent deleted a file it wasn't supposed to." "Tool call returned an empty result." Laminar reads every trace and produces structured events you can query, cluster, and alert on. No regex. No custom parsers. DEBUGGER - reproduce any agent run from any point in the trace. Swap the model. Change the prompt. Compare results side by side. You don't re-run the whole pipeline to test one step. EVALS IN CI - run evaluations against datasets locally or in GitHub Actions. Catch regressions before they ship. INTEGRATIONS - works with everything you're already using: LangChain, LangGraph, Vercel AI SDK, Anthropic, OpenAI, Browser Use, Stagehand, Pydantic AI, OpenRouter, LiteLLM, Mastra, Temporal, Playwright. One import. Full traces. Plus: raw SQL access to all your trace data, full-text search, MCP server to query traces directly from Claude or Cursor, PII redaction, and self-hosting if you need it. Open-source. MIT license. GitHub: lmnr-ai/lmnr. If you're running agents in production and you're not tracing them - you're flying blind. What's your current setup for debugging agent failures?

Yarchi (@undefinedKi) reportedBORIS CHERNY, THE CREATOR OF CLAUDE CODE, JUST SOLVED AI'S BIGGEST PROBLEM. HE STOPPED PROMPTING CLAUDE AND STARTED WRITING LOOPS THAT RUN IT 24/7 The guy who built Claude Code doesn't prompt Claude anymore. He writes loops, and the loops do the prompting. It's called loop engineering. Here's what it is and how to set it up. A loop is a system that wakes itself up, finds work, does it, checks it, and repeats, while you watch instead of type. In Claude Code it's three built-in commands: > /loop runs a prompt on an interval. Example: /loop every 5 minutes, check for new GitHub issues and handle any that come in. > /goal makes the agent work until a condition you set is true, with a separate model grading the result. Example: /goal build this feature until all tests pass. > /routines are scheduled jobs. Example: every hour, wake up, read the spec doc, and do the next task. The fastest way to start: write a simple task list in a plan.md file, then tell Claude "use the loop skill and work through plan.md one task at a time." It sets up the /loop itself, does the first task, validates it, wakes itself for the next, and reports back when the list is done. You never write the loop prompt by hand. Three rules so it doesn't burn your budget or ship garbage. One, split work across separate sessions instead of looping in one (a long /loop bloats your context and overwhelms the model). Two, use a cheap model like Haiku for planning and a strong one only for the actual code. Three, keep a human checkpoint on anything that ships, never let it run all night unchecked. Bookmark this
