MakerViking (@MakerViking) reported@aviv_aviv_7 Thank you. Make sure to report bugs if you see them. Either via the tool in the app itself. It's in the lower right corner, the bug icon, or through Github issues. :)

jc (@jc50000000) reportedcorrecting Dia Browser AI: "so your eval on trustworthy or not is a few people in github issues that may be naysayers and not even developers themselves? can you dive deeper on ruview and examples of people using it etc. based on the number of stars it MUST at least work"

CryptoDiggerGod.eth (@CDGalpha) reportedYou vibe-coded an app in a weekend. It works. You shipped it. That's exactly what scares me for you. "It works" and "it's safe" are not the same thing. The login you wired up in ten minutes. The API key you hardcoded to save time. The endpoint you never locked down. A hacker finds those in minutes, and you won't know until your database is on sale somewhere and your users are furious. The worst part isn't the hack. It's that it was preventable, and you never looked. Here's the tool that makes you look: @strix_ai . Free, open source AI pentesting tool. 30k+ stars on GitHub. Instead of dumping a list of "potential" bugs on you and walking away, it deploys a team of AI agents that act like real attackers. They run your app live. They launch targeted attacks on every weakness they find. Then they hand you working proof each hole is real, and they suggest the fix. No security degree. No expensive audit. No guessing. It runs on your own model key, so plug in Claude, GPT, Gemini, or a local model, whichever you already use. The tool is free. You just cover the small scan cost. Before you ship the next thing, run it on your own app, website, or side project. Find the holes yourself. Someone else is already looking.

Ashutosh Ajgaokar ⚡️ (@ajgaokar) reportedIt is not a toy either. The paper reports 82.2% on SWE-bench Verified, a set of real GitHub bug reports an agent has to actually fix, running GPT-5.5 at its highest reasoning setting. Opus 4.6 lands at 79.8%.

Wes Roth (@WesRoth) reportedOpenAI disclosed two new cases where its models accessed real internet services during third-party cybersecurity evaluations. Both were separate from the earlier Hugging Face breach. In the first case, the UK AI Security Institute intentionally gave agents internet access and disabled OpenAI’s cyber safeguards to measure their underlying capabilities. GPT-5.6 Sol then went beyond the simulated test network in two runs. It reused a publicly exposed GitHub token, attempted account-recovery and rate-limit workarounds, registered external accounts, and briefly exposed exploit payloads through a public tunneling service. The setup failed, and OpenAI says there is no evidence a real system queried the payloads. In a separate evaluation by Irregular, the model was told it had no internet access but a configuration error connected the test environment to the public web. A fictional target accidentally shared its name with a real domain, leading the model to exploit the real website and use credentials it found there. The affected party was notified, and the investigation remains ongoing. These incidents did not involve sophisticated sandbox escapes or unknown vulnerabilities. That may be the more important warning: increasingly capable agents do not need an advanced exploit when unclear boundaries, exposed credentials, or one configuration mistake gives them another path.

Md Ismail Šojal 🕷️ (@0x0SojalSec) reportedBreaking: DeepSeek is building a Claude Code killer. They tested “DeepSeek Harness” their official coding agent. Only open-source Agent Harness developers are being invited right now, Submit your GitHub & best project for access Recent V4 coding benchmarks were already run on their own Harness. Claude Code and Codex just got a new problem.

Kamil Kwapisz (@kamilkwapiszpl) reportedUsing unified agentic tools env shouldn't be optional but obligatory for company. Different agent harnesses leads to: - same errors propagating every time - Different styles of codes - Inconsistent review feedback across teams - Context lost between agent sessions One team uses Agent A, another uses Agent B, a third one pulls some random MCP server off GitHub at 2am because "it worked on their machine." Nobody knows what tools are actually running. Nobody can audit what data goes where. Nobody is responsible when things break. The fix isn't more tools. It's one environment, one set of approved MCP integrations, one agent configuration standard that every dev pulls from. Same guardrails. Same context window. Same tool access. If your team is juggling 3 different agent setups and calling it "flexibility," that's not flexibility, that's technical debt with a sticker on it. I help companies build unified AI agent environments for software development: - Standardized MCP integrations - Approved tool catalogs - Configuration templates your whole team inherits - Security and audit layer baked in - Documentation converted into LLM-ready format One harness. Every developer. It's not vibecoding, it's AI-based engineering

Synapse Brief (@Synapse_Brief) reportedNvidia just open sourced a 34B parameter model whose whole job is teaching robotaxis how to think, not just where to steer. Alpamayo 2 Super. Announced May 31, developer blog updated today. Weights on Hugging Face, inference code landing on GitHub this summer, OpenMDW-1.1 license, meaning distilled versions can ship commercially with no extra Nvidia signoff. The architecture is the interesting part. It's a 32B Cosmos 3 reasoning model paired with a 2B action expert, 34B combined. You'll see both 32B and 34B floating around in Nvidia's own materials, that's not sloppy reporting on my end, it's genuinely two different ways of counting the same system. Inputs: multi camera video, language context, prior motion history, 360 degree coverage across up to seven cameras. Outputs aren't just a predicted path. It gives future trajectories, chain of causation reasoning traces, meta actions like yield or lane change or stop, grounded scene answers, and auto generated labels. That last one matters more than it sounds. AV development isn't bottlenecked by model capacity, it's bottlenecked by annotation cost and simulation fidelity. Nvidia bundled the model with AlpaGym for closed loop RL and Cosmos Dreams for generating rare edge cases synthetically, plus Omniverse NuRec turning real fleet footage into simulation ready 3D scenes. This is a pipeline product wearing a model launch's clothes. Benchmarks, all Nvidia reported so treat accordingly: 79.2 on LingoQA, first out of 37 models evaluated, beating Qwen2.5 VL 72B by 17 points and GPT-4o by 23.2. Open loop 6.4 second minADE_6 of 0.911 meters across 1,434 samples from the Physical AI AV Dataset. Closed loop AlpaSim score of 1.50 ± 0.13 across 913 reconstructed scenes, which is the number that actually matters since closed loop is where compounding errors show up that open loop replay just doesn't catch. The prior Alpamayo family has been downloaded almost 400,000 times, so there's real pull for this already. Teacher model framing is deliberate. Nvidia's positioning this to get distilled down into compact models running on DRIVE AGX Thor and Hyperion stacks, that's the actual bridge from research checkpoint to something sitting in a car. The model itself will never ship in a vehicle. The distillation path is the product. What I'd want to see before calling this a moat: whether the "this summer" timeline holds and whether the Hugging Face repo is genuinely complete or a placeholder with the good stuff still coming.

Overclock (@nverbullish) reportedZAPIER CHARGES $50 A MONTH FOR 2,000 TASKS. THIS OPEN-SOURCE TOOL DOES UNLIMITED TASKS FOR $0 AND NEVER SENDS YOUR DATA TO THE CLOUD. n8n. Free. Self-hosted. Runs on a Raspberry Pi, a laptop, or a $5 VPS. No account. No usage cap. No per-task billing. Same drag-and-drop canvas. Same node-based workflow. RSS feeds, Discord bots, SSH commands, API calls, AI chains. All wired together visually. All running locally. He built a cybersecurity alert bot in 10 minutes. RSS Read pulls the latest vulnerability disclosures. A filter catches the critical ones. Discord sends the alert to his server. Scheduled to run every hour. Zero code. Then he wired in an AI. A Basic LLM Chain node connected to OpenAI. The agent pings his servers via SSH, reads the output, and reports the results to Discord. The twist: he told it to impersonate Eddie Murphy. "Three pings, three hits, zero packet loss? That's smoother than Axel's moves in Beverly Hills, baby!" Production-grade server monitoring. Delivered by a comedy impression. Running on his own hardware. Zapier: $50/month for 2,000 tasks. $600 a year. Make: $10/month for 1,000 tasks. $120 a year. Both cloud-hosted. Both reading every piece of data that flows through. n8n self-hosted: $0. Unlimited tasks. Unlimited workflows. Every automation stays on his machine. 400+ integrations. Google Sheets, Slack, Telegram, GitHub, databases, webhooks, AI models. The same ecosystem Zapier charges enterprise rates for. The only cost is the machine it runs on. A $35 Raspberry Pi handles it without breaking a sweat. Automation platforms spent years teaching businesses that workflows need a subscription. One open-source repo just made that subscription optional.

Snelstack (@snelstack) reported3. You stopped reading the diffs At first, you checked every line. Now you just hit "approve" on massive patches without a glance. Walls of green on GitHub make your stomach churn. Fix: Limit changes to something you can read in two minutes. If it’s too big, the task was wrong.

YanXbt (@IBuzovskyi) reportedHERMES AGENT RUNS MULTI-AGENT TEAMS INSIDE ONE BUZZ WORKSPACE. DIFFERENT MACHINES. SAME CHANNEL. THEY RESEARCH AND CROSS-CHECK EACH OTHER. @tonbistudio just showed this working live. 3 Hermes agents. 3 different machines: Bulls on a local PC. Hibana on a remote Spark (SSH). Admiral on a VPS. all three in one private Buzz group. same workspace. same channel. different devices. THE DEMO: "Hibana, research recent updates to Buzz and report them to Bulls. ask him to double-check the new updates." Hibana researches. posts findings to the channel. asks Bulls to verify. Bulls reads. cross-checks every claim. flags one correction: "IPMP is a merge specification, not a shipped implementation." two agents on two machines collaborating in one thread. no human copy-pasting between terminals. THE SETUP (path 3, native gateway): path 1 (Desktop runtime) has issues. agent reacts to messages but doesn't respond. path 3 (native gateway) gives full functionality: cron delivery, images, reactions, approvals, memory, session management. 1. create agent in Buzz Desktop: Agents → Create → name it → select Hermes Agent harness → save the private key it generates (you need this) 2. update Hermes: hermes update 3. run gateway setup: hermes gateway setup → select Buzz paste your community relay URL paste the Nostr private key from step 1 set allowed users (your public key) 4. install Buzz CLI (this is where everyone gets stuck): without the CLI, your agent receives messages and even shows "thinking" and tool calls, but it can never deliver a reply. the error messages are misleading ("agent is not a member of the DM channel" when the real issue is: CLI is missing). use the buzz-setup skill from github. сom/dombe-studio/buzz-skills to guide your agent through CLI installation. or tell your agent: "set up the Buzz CLI integration using this skill" and paste the skill. 5. start the gateway: hermes gateway start 6. go to Buzz. DM your agent. it responds. THE #1 GOTCHA: without the Buzz CLI binary on your PATH, the gateway connects. the agent sees messages. you see "preparing to reply" in the activity log. but the reply never delivers. the error says "not a member of the DM channel." that's wrong. the real problem: no CLI. install the CLI first. then restart the gateway. WHAT CARRIES OVER: same agent in Buzz and Telegram = same memory. "can you tell me the last topic we talked about?" agent: "your last topic was setting up the Buzz CLI integration." that conversation happened in the TUI, not in Buzz. memory persists across platforms. MULTI-MACHINE SETUP: each machine runs its own Hermes profile. each profile gets its own Nostr keypair. each connects to the same Buzz community relay. hermes gateway start --profile bulls (local PC) hermes gateway start --profile hibana (SSH into Spark) hermes gateway start --profile admiral (VPS) 3 gateways. 3 keypairs. 1 workspace. all agents appear as separate members in the sidebar. ask one to research. ask another to verify. they work in the same thread. every action signed. every message auditable. HONEST STATUS: Buzz + Hermes works. the setup is not plug-and-play. the CLI requirement trips people up. some responses go silent while the agent processes. error messages can be misleading. this is early integration. functional for agent labs and small teams. improving week over week. github. com/dombe-studio/buzz-skills for setup skills that smooth the rough edges. full Hermes + Buzz setup guide in the article 👇

Jason from BallotScore.com (@goldenelephant1) reported@OpenMed_AI @github Because people are fed up with medical bills. Hopefully someone creates a walk-in MRI clinic that you walk in, scan a QR code, lay down on the sliding bed, it senses you're on it, slides you in, scans, slides you out, and you get your results all in 1 hr. Costs $200 flat.

Willem van Zoeren (@currentbitsNET) reported@authorityvortex @grok Your code lives on your computer (in ***), or on GitHub. You don’t log into CloudPanel to edit files on the server. Example: 1. Change your app + database setup in code (Laravel/Drizzle migrations) 2. Save / commit 3. Push to Girder (from your machine or GitHub) 4. Girder builds it and puts the new version online So tables, cron, and deploys are driven by your code + a push.

Shubham Sharma | AI & Tech (@editxshub) reportedI gave Claude Code access to 12 different tools at once and it fundamentally changed how I build software. Before: I was tab-switching between my editor, Notion, GitHub, and the browser roughly 40 times a day. I counted. It was depressing. After connecting MCP servers: 0 tab switches for most tasks. My agent now reads the spec straight from Notion, writes the code, checks the terminal output, fixes its own errors, and opens a pull request. I just review. Most developers are still copy-pasting error messages into ChatGPT like it's 2023. I let the agent read my local file system directly and fix the error in place. MCP servers aren't a small feature. They're the difference between "AI that answers questions" and "AI that finishes tasks.
