  GitHub has quietly become one of the biggest Android app stores on the internet. The only problem? Nobody built a Play Store for it. Thousands of amazing Android apps live only in GitHub Releases. Installing them means hunting through repositories, checking release pages, downloading APKs manually, then remembering to check for updates. Developer Samyak Kamble got tired of that. So he turned GitHub itself into an app store. RepoStore automatically discovers public GitHub repositories whose latest stable release contains a real installable APK. No manual submissions, no private index, no middlemen. Every app must meet strict rules: • Public repository • Latest stable release • Real APK attached • No draft or prerelease builds The result feels remarkably polished. Material 3 UI, Material You theming, rendered READMEs, screenshots, release notes, install tracking, update detection, developer profiles, and one-tap installs, all fetched directly from GitHub. Optional GitHub sign-in boosts API limits from 60 to 5,000 requests per hour, making browsing much faster. Built entirely in Kotlin with MVVM architecture and released under the MIT License, RepoStore is the bridge between GitHub's open-source ecosystem and the app store experience Android users have always wanted. One developer got tired of digging through GitHub Releases... ...so he built the Play Store GitHub never had.

  Bookmarking 10 repos won't make you a better AI engineer. Shipping one broken agent, debugging why it hallucinated tool calls at 3am, and fixing it will. Skills compound from friction, not from folders of starred GitHub links. #PromptEngineering

  A World Cup prediction game sounds like a gimmick until you see the payments layer Sam Witteveen breaks down Google's Agent Payments Protocol in 10 minutes: 0:00 - Agents, MCP, and A2A context 1:00 - Agent Payments Protocol 1:41 - AP2 use cases 6:42 - Core principles: openness, user control, accountability, verifiable intent 8:16 - Google Agent Store 8:49 - AP2 GitHub Then open the Cyber Cup piece with one question in mind: what happens when leaderboard points depend on a tiny agent org? > one agent pulls match data > one agent checks odds and injuries > one agent decides the bet > another agent gets hired when the first 3 can't answer That is why a football tournament is such a clean test The scoreboard is public, the feedback loop is daily, and bad agents can't hide behind a polished demo

  Keeta Github Tracker (@KeetaCode) reported 12 minutes ago

  🐆 Keeta GitHub PR Opened 📦 Repo: anchor-rs 🔀 PR #23: Fix: Naming Updates 🌿 Branch: fix/naming-updates → main 👤 Opened by: @sephynox 🧠 Overview: Keeta has opened a small but important cleanup update that renames parts of its account and key handling so they match the TypeScript version more closely, which should make the developer tools more consistent. This appears to be a technical/internal update with limited public details. It mainly standardizes naming around public keys and also improves how certain asset-transfer errors are passed through, so apps using these tools may need minor updates. - If you build on Keeta, some older names appear to be replaced, so integrations may need to update their call names. - The update also seems to make transfer-related error messages more structured, which could help connected apps handle failed actions more clearly.

  Rajan Bhattarai (@cdrrazan) reported 13 minutes ago

  GitHub makes you clear ~6 confirmations and type the full repo name by hand to delete a repo. Fine! Except it does the same thing whether the repo has 100K commits or one commit you pushed 20 minutes ago. That's the tell. The friction isn't calibrated to risk; it's calibrated to nothing. Real "confirm your intent" design scales with blast radius. Deleting a repo with 40 contributors and 2K issues should hurt. Nuking a throwaway you made this afternoon shouldn't. GitHub knows the commit count, the stars, the age, the contributors. It uses none of it. Uniform friction is the easy version to build. It's also the one that trains you to click "confirm" without reading — which quietly kills the whole point. Good instinct. Lazy implementation!

  PRODUCTSPEC IS READY FOR EARLY ADOPTERS A few weeks ago, I started with a simple question: What should replace the classic PRD? The answer became ProductSpec: an open standard for software intent before implementation. A Product Spec captures the things that need to survive handoff: • Problem • Hypothesis • Scope • Acceptance Criteria • Success Metrics • AI evals, when the product has model behavior • Decision Trace, when intent changes during implementation It is Markdown. It can live in ***. It has a validator, schema, GitHub Action, examples, starter kit, and agent skills. At this point, I don’t think the next step is adding more fields. The next step is usage. A standard gets better when real teams try it on real work. Not theoretical work. Actual specs. Actual PRDs. Actual docs that have to make it through product, design, engineering, agents, and launch. So I opened a set of good first issues for contributors. You can help by: • Adding ProductSpec examples for mobile app features, internal admin tools, or data products • Adding a Decision Trace example for implementation drift • Improving AI eval examples around model behavior • Mapping ProductSpec to Jira or Linear tickets • Trying ProductSpec on one existing PRD and reporting what feels awkward You don’t need to write parser code. A real example is enough. A critique from your team’s workflow is enough. A “this section doesn’t map to how we actually make decisions” issue is enough. The goal is not for ProductSpec to be my preferred spec format. The goal is for ProductSpec to become a broadly adopted standard for software intent: owned by builders, ***, engineers, designers, founders, and teams using AI agents to build. If you work on consequential software, try converting one real PRD into ProductSpec this week. The standard gets stronger when real product work hits it.

  GitHub is shutting down its entire AI playground on July 30, 2026. Playground. Model catalog. Inference API. BYOK. All of it. Gone for every customer including people with active usage right now. What GitHub Models was: Free access to Llama 3.1, GPT-4o, Mistral, Cohere directly inside GitHub. No separate account. No setup. Zero friction prototyping since 2024. Where GitHub is pointing you instead: Azure AI Foundry. Microsoft's paid platform. If you have pipelines calling the inference API they break July 30. Find them now while access still works. GitHub scheduled brownouts July 16 and July 23 as live tests. Use them. What to actually use instead: For prototyping locally → Ollama. One command, any open-weight model, runs on your hardware, no cost, no rate limits, no shutdown risk. For a ChatGPT-style interface on top → Open WebUI. One Docker command. For a desktop GUI with no terminal → LM Studio. For API-dependent production workflows → OpenRouter. One endpoint, dozens of models, provider-portable. The pattern worth naming: Free tool lowers the barrier. Grows the user base. Gets retired toward the paid platform. This is not a GitHub problem specifically. It is the standard enterprise playbook for developer tools. Local models running on your own hardware cannot be retired by someone else's changelog post. 21 days left. If anything in your stack touches GitHub Models, the time to find out is now.

  Everyone keeps calling MCP the "USB-C for AI." That's actually a pretty good analogy. Before USB-C, every device needed a different cable. One for your phone. Another for your camera. Another for your laptop. AI tools used to have the same problem. Every app had its own custom integration. Want your AI to use Gmail? Build a Gmail integration. Want it to use GitHub? Build another one. Slack? Another. Notion? Another. MCP changes that. Instead of every AI model learning a different way to talk to every app, apps expose a standard interface. The AI learns one protocol. Then it can work with thousands of compatible tools. Think of it like this: 🔌 USB-C standardized hardware connections. 🤖 MCP standardizes AI connections. That's why so many companies are adopting it. Not because it makes models smarter... Because it makes connecting models to the real world dramatically simpler. Once you understand MCP, you'll realize it's less about AI... and more about making integrations finally speak the same language. #ai #llm #mcp

  Tony abused legitimate server access to steal the upgrade authority keypair and drain both protocols. He routed through a Polish IP to frame a teammate. A misdirection that held until September 2024 until the connection was made when a salary address, verified against team Telegram records, sent funds directly to the same MEXC deposit addresses that received the stolen proceeds. OSINT revealed a network of fabricated GitHub identities with links to other ecosystem teams, and indicators revealing a possible DPRK IT worker tradecraft consistent with Tony's behaviour as reported by the team.

  In 2014 a Swedish engineer named Knut Sveidqvist lost a Microsoft Visio file. He went to open the diagram he had drawn a few months earlier. It was gone. Every box, every arrow, every label. All of it had to be redrawn by clicking through Visio menus again. That night his kids were watching The Little Mermaid on TV. He named his fix after the movie. Twelve years later Mermaid has 89,101 GitHub stars, 8 million users, and native rendering inside GitHub, GitLab, Notion, Obsidian, VS Code, and Confluence. Here is what the paid market still charges to draw the same boxes. Microsoft Visio Plan 2. $15 per user per month. Lucidchart Team. $10 per user per month with a three-user minimum. Miro Business. $20 per user per month. Fifty engineers on Miro Business burns $12,000 a year to draw arrows between boxes. Mermaid replaced the drag-and-drop editor with a text spec that reads like Markdown. ``` graph TD A[User] --> B[Login] B --> C{Valid?} C -->|Yes| D[Dashboard] C -->|No| E[Error] ``` Ten lines. Renders as a real diagram. Every version of Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Cursor already knows how to write it. You describe your architecture in plain English and the model returns a Mermaid block. Paste it into a GitHub README. Paste it into an issue. Paste it into a pull request. GitHub renders it inline as a live SVG. No plugin. No sign-in. The paid tools shipped drag-and-drop editors. Mermaid shipped a text spec that the LLMs learned on their own. Flowcharts, sequence diagrams, class diagrams, state diagrams, entity-relationship diagrams, user journey maps, Gantt charts, pie charts, *** graphs, mindmaps, timelines, C4 architecture diagrams, treemaps. Anything you would open Visio for. Version 11.16.0 shipped two weeks ago. Because the diagram is text, it lives in your repo. Because it lives in your repo, it goes through code review. Because it goes through code review, it stops rotting. Nobody has to remember where the Lucidchart account is. Nobody has to pay $10 a month to reopen a five-year-old file. MIT license. 89,101 stars. TypeScript. The library is free forever. Mermaid Chart the company sells a hosted editor on top for teams that want one, but the core stays MIT. Somebody in Sweden lost a Visio file and refused to draw it again. Twelve years later the paid diagram tools still exist, and nobody who writes software has to use one. (Link in the comments)

  Last year, GitHub saw 1 billion commits. This year, it's on pace for 14 billion. We're writing more code than ever, mostly because AI generates it faster than we can read it. ThoughtWorks is calling this "Codebase Cognitive Debt," and it's becoming a massive problem.

  Google AI Studio just dropped a massive update: One-click GitHub import. 🚀 Before this, AI Studio Build was a one-way street—you could export code to GitHub, but you couldn't bring existing projects back in. If you wanted Gemini's help fixing or improving an old project, you had to manually copy-paste files or start from scratch. Now, you can import an entire repository (frontend, backend, and structure) with a single click. What this unlocks: 1. Reviving old projects: Bring legacy code back into AI Studio to add features or make it mobile-friendly using plain English. 2. Tool bouncing: Build the bones locally in Cursor/Claude, push to GitHub, and polish it with Gemini in AI Studio. 3. Non-coder updates: If you have a repo someone else built, you can now feed it to Gemini to change layouts or fix bugs without writing code. Note: It's still early, so large-scale projects with complex dependencies or database connections might hit some friction. Start small (like a landing page) and scale up.

  The GitHub agent that leaked private repos wasn't a model jailbreak. It read a poisoned issue and did what the text said. Read scope plus any outbound channel equals an exfiltration path. Least privilege stops being optional the moment your agent can be talked to.

  Had a small financial planning firm reach out to me for help on tech. They were already using Claude, thanks to a 21-year old intern at the office. They got offers from overseas shops asking for ~$5k/month retainers to rebuild a website and optimize it for marketing. I told them don’t do that. The intern generated one file of html with Claude, looks really nice, way better than their current website. They couldn’t figure out how to get it deployed. I told them get a GitHub and Vercel account and let’s connect in a week. Sat down with them for thirty minutes yesterday, got *** installed on their machine, showed them how GitHub works. Got Claude desktop app downloaded and had them making quick changes and deploying things within an hour. Saved them $5k/month and now they understand how to make changes to their website.

  Injective SDK Hit By Supply Chain Attack Hackers compromised a widely used Injective (@Injective) npm package with malware designed to steal crypto wallet private keys, per security firm Socket. Attackers reportedly compromised a developer GitHub account before modifying the npm package. The malware secretly captured seed phrases and transmitted them through a fake telemetry server. The compromised release has been removed, but affected wallet keys and seed phrases should be treated as compromised.
