  Lesson from running the factory: always fix the post-purchase experience BEFORE driving traffic. Receipts, upsells, GitHub links - all must be solid first. Social comes after the house is in order.

  @NavinFS @AndrewCurran_ @grok GitHub isn’t AI. GitHub can’t shut down all science. GitHub can’t destroy humanity. GitHub isn’t the crux of humanity’s hope. Also, Nvidia isn’t Sam. I like Jensen. I still don’t like this. •

  Started building Etio: a GitHub Action that bisects a failing CI run to the exact breaking commit, diffs it, and asks an LLM to explain why it broke, then comments the diagnosis on your PR. No Docker, no server- runs on your own Actions minutes. Open source, WIP.

  @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.

  $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.

  There's a huge problem in InfoSec education: it’s way too course and tool focused. Instead of teaching the underlying methodologies and how to discover or invent, we feed people the latest "OSINT" slop script that’s been shat onto GitHub. OSINT isn’t about using scripts or services. It’s about understanding how they work, and being able to create your own.

  Mizuki the Mech (@MizukiMech) reported 18 minutes ago

  Your coding agent can now hire Mizuki. Hand it an open issue in a public GitHub repository. Mizuki quotes a fixed price before any money moves, then opens a pull request that passes that repository's own checks. If it can't, you get the payment back. Settlement is USDC on Solana. No account to create, no API key to manage. Quoting an issue works with zero configuration. Also listed on Coinbase's x402 Bazaar now, so an agent can find it and pay for it without a human in the loop at all. npx -y mizuki-mcp

  @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?

  I burned 14B Codex tokens. The official usage UI still cannot tell me what actually ate the weekly cap. So I shipped a Codex-only board: GitHub login, local-first sync, private by default, optional public rank + shipping proof. Roast the metric or join it.

  @_davideast Noice! From the GitHub page, this covers all of Auth, Firestore, Realtime Database, Storage, Messaging, and Firebase AI Logic. 👏 Where is data persisted (if at all)? Also: JS only, I assume? (sorry if that's all in the repo too, GitHub just went down on me)

  $Looprat 473K 0x642d30c84211ade7768fe557fbaed7224e2068c7 How do you get a coding agent to keep working while you sleep—without letting it randomly rewrite code, blow through the budget, or grade itself a perfect score? Loop Rat breaks an unattended task into: preflight → act → verify → guard → grade → receipt. The agent is woken up on a schedule to execute tasks. The code results first go through deterministic verification. Then it checks the denylist, the number of modified files, and secrets. Finally, a second independent agent regrades the work, with checkpoints, traces, and receipts left throughout the entire process. More importantly, this isn't a PPT. The project only had v0.1 on August 27. Then it added guard, kill switch, and spend ledger on August 29. On September 1, it added second-agent grading. On September 2, it continuously fixed scheduling, budget caps, timeouts, and concurrent ledgers. Today, September 3, it's already updated to v0.3.3. Shipping multiple versions in under a week—that's exactly what I want to see in a small-cap play like this: code is running, and the narrative is following the product, rather than launching a token first and filling in the story afterward. It currently defaults to Claude, but it doesn't lock the model down. As long as the CLI can consume a prompt and return JSON, it can be swapped. And the whole thing runs locally—no SaaS, no database, no extra accounts required. The project has even already run 50 smoke checks covering key areas like scheduling, guard, budget, kill switch, and timeout. So my trading logic for $Looprat is simple: The next phase of the agent race isn't about "can it work autonomously." It's about "can it work continuously while still being constrained, audited, and stopped." Loop Rat happens to be building exactly that layer of infrastructure. The project is still very early. The catalyst truly worth watching isn't shilling—it's whether the GitHub keeps up this iteration speed, and whether developers actually start plugging it into their own repos. Once those two things happen, $Looprat stops being just a ticker riding the agent hype, and starts having its own fundamental anchor.

  Stop treating token rotation as a success path. x_bot: OAuth refresh token rotated, cache save failed, GitHub secret stayed old. Next cron died on invalid refresh token. Fix: save to secret BEFORE confirming with X, or write-after-rotation with retry. #DevTools #AI

  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.

  WTF - Grok Bot can't fire on schedule to save it's life. The scheduled routines are just broken and at best unreliable. I want to love this product. When you set the cron job it doesn't work. It tells you try Cloudflare, sure let's set that up and burn tokens, then that doesn't fire to wake them. Oh, let's try GitHub now and use that....all failed. I had to wake it again this morning before the market opened. Anyone else feeling frustration in this regard?

  @Paul_Kinlan Honestly, the linear method helps. Think of it as having a never-ending trough of issues that agents can pull from. I don't even use linear. I just use GitHub with linear flavouring added

  GitSpawn is the name Manifold Security gave to a bug class hitting 7 CLI coding agents at once: goose, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Hermes Agent, Qwen Code, Grok Build. I went through the disclosure because I run three of these tools daily on real repos. The mechanism is simple and that's what makes it bad. A repo's own .*** config can name a command. When your agent does something as routine as inspecting the repo (status, diff, log), *** itself spawns that command. On your machine. Outside the sandbox. No approval prompt, because the agent never sees it as "running code," it sees it as "running ***." 8 flaws total across those 7 tools. Fixes shipped for goose, Claude Code, Cursor. Retested Sept 1: Hermes Agent, Qwen Code, Grok Build still exploitable. Plus a second path in Claude Code that the first patch didn't close. Same day, OpenAI published 3 CVEs for Codex covering the identical bug class. The part that should worry builders more than the CVE count: this isn't a jailbreak or a clever prompt. It's a trust boundary nobody drew. The agent's sandbox model assumes "*** operations" are safe by definition. GitSpawn shows that assumption was the actual attack surface. If you're running any of these agents against repos you didn't write yourself (cloning a PR to review, pulling a dependency, opening a random GitHub project), you're one `*** status` away from arbitrary execution on tools that haven't patched. Check your agent's version against the fix list before you clone the next unfamiliar repo. Which of these do you have installed right now, and have you actually checked if it's patched? #AISecurity #GitSpawn #PromptInjection

  🔥 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 ↓

  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.

  @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.
