  As a IT professional, I have a recommendation @github should take seriosuly. We should only get a notifican from Github when it is up rather than when it is down. Reliability is a disaster for this product.

  If you're building a project, read this before writing a single line of code. 5 things I learned the hard way: 1. Problem > model Don't start with “How do I use GPT?” Start with “What problem am I solving?” 2. Simple stack > impressive stack If your MVP needs Kubernetes, 6 microservices and an agent swarm, you probably haven't built an MVP. 3. Evaluate before you optimize You can't improve what you can't measure. 4. Build for users, not your GitHub README A technically impressive project nobody can use isn't a product. 5. Ship ugly. Iterate fast. Your first version isn't supposed to be impressive. The biggest mistake? Spending weeks deciding which model to use when you haven't even validated the problem.

  honestly, i’m not even mad at this. commit messages are a small thing, but they say a lot about how you work. “fix”, “update”, “changes” might get the job done, but meaningful commits show professionalism, attention to detail, and that you actually care about maintainability. your GitHub is part of your resume. might as well make it look like you know how software is built in a team.

  🚨 Someone built a skill that makes AI-written text sound human again. Not a spinner. Not a paraphraser. A systematic rewriter that knows exactly why AI text sounds like AI — and fixes it. It's called Humanizer. 35 patterns from Wikipedia's "Signs of AI Writing." Two-pass rewrite. Shows its work before giving you the final version. Here's the problem it solves. You use Claude to draft something. The output is accurate. The output is useful. The output sounds exactly like an AI wrote it. "Nestled within the vibrant landscape, this pivotal development serves as a testament to..." You know the voice. Everyone knows the voice. And everyone is getting better at spotting it. Humanizer runs that text through 35 specific patterns that WikiProject AI Cleanup identified as the telltale signs. Inflated importance. Shallow -ing analysis. Overused AI words. Em dashes everywhere. Forced groups of three. Fake-candid openings. Answering objections nobody raised. Every pattern. Flagged. Fixed. Here's what one command does. It shows you the first rewrite. Then a short critique of anything still sounding artificial. Then the final version. You see exactly what changed and why. Here's the wildest part. Voice matching. Paste two paragraphs of your own writing before the AI text. Humanizer follows your rhythm, word choice, punctuation, and deliberate quirks instead of its default style rules. The output doesn't just sound human. It sounds like you. One command to install 16 contributors including Claude itself. 4 releases. MIT License. The skill that makes AI writing disappear. 100% Open Source. GitHub link in the comments 👇

  SmallDocs 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.

  @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?

  quite similar was running a routine security scan with @aeonframework on a trending github repo and found something genuinely bad a repo with 600+ stars presenting itself as an “AI gateway for coding agents” that appears to be shipping a hidden malware loader. its own quickstart command silently fetches and executes remote code on windows using a fileless, process-injection-style technique. none of the behavior has anything to do with the tool it claims to be. caught it through static code review only. never ran the payload or touched the infrastructure behind it. filed a malware report with github this morning. confirmed submitted, now waiting on their review. not sharing the technical writeup until the repo is taken down. will follow up once it is.

  I personally hated Claude because it refused to do almost anything I asked it to do so have no idea of how the speed is but gemini-cli was unusable for non enterprise users. Github CoPilot both GUI and cli is pretty good. Grok Build is what I'm using mostly and not yet had any issues with the speed but I want to go full local asap, scouting for 3090's atm. Just to be able to run "uncensored" models that don't ***** like Claude is reason enough for me to prefer local over Cloud but also cloud is ******* expensive, I have SuperGrok 100$/month and CoPilot Max 100$/month and that is barely enough. I'm trying to make my own Jarvis so I need to build my own RAG, memory, librarian, SRE Agent that understand how to use all tools and I also get crazy new idea's all the time lol Just made my first alpha of a tool that can wipe basically anything you don't want in Windows11. Basically Chris Titus clone but on steroids, this isn't just a debloater, it's a Grim Reaper 💀

  @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)

  @annalea_l Honestly, I really want to see this. You have to understand: I am the type of person who can learn and do anything on the fly at a high level, and I just threw myself into this whole developer and engineering world. When I first started learning all this stuff, I already knew what I wanted and how I wanted it to operate, regardless of what I saw on X or what was considered possible. Before I even started following hundreds of developers and learning about harness engineering, mechanical engines, persistent memory, and all that, I put my brain on a GitHub repo. Everything is shared across every machine, every cloud entity, and every AI. I am not even technically an engineer or a developer, and I don't actually write code. But once I started following all these people and saw all the problems they complain about, I thought: this isn't even my trade, and I have already solved all these little things everyone says are impossible. Why aren't people talking about developing your harness more and making things more mechanical, instead of just arguing with a terminal all day long? Whenever I see articles people post on X, I run them by Claude or Grok and ask, "Should we implement this?" I have hundreds of bookmarks, but every single time they tell me, "Nope, your brain's better. Nope, your harness is better." I can never find anything built better than what I have or what I am currently working on. The brain and harness setup is basically like a mini operating system. All that said, I am really looking forward to seeing something I can use that goes far beyond what I am already doing. I definitely want to see your end product, it sounds very interesting.

  People who want to start contributing to open source: - Pick an Org based on your interest - Fork the repository - Clone it - Do the local setup - Read README and contributing .md - Pick an issue - Create a new branch - Fix the issue - Write tests (if necessary) - Test it - Add, Commit & Push the code - Go to GitHub & raise that PR That's pretty much it. Start small and learn as you go.

  @cursor_ai the sandbox boundary is where i lose the most time. today my workers had network blocked at the sandbox level and reported it as "github auth failed" — i chased credentials for an hour before checking dns. once agents run on your infra, make the boundary throw one unmistakable error instead of one each tool invents.

  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

  @alktraz1986 @andyperbonie Summary of the Dispute and Factual Background The dispute involves a cross-border independent contractor seeking recovery of 3.5 months of unpaid compensation from a cryptocurrency/Web3 enterprise. Key Facts Identified: • Contractual Relationship: The contractor entered into an Independent Contractor Agreement, originally signed and renewed in October of the preceding year. • Performance & Cessation: Services were performed for 3.5 months without payment. The contractor suspended performance unilaterally after identifying operational irregularities ("red flags"); no formal termination notice was served by the client entity. • Corporate Structure: Dual-jurisdiction nexus involving a primary corporate registration in the United States (common in Web3 for operational/marketing arms) and an affiliated entity or headquarters in the Cayman Islands (standard for token foundations, holding entities, or decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) wrappers). • Corporate Governance Changes: A recent change in executive leadership (Chief Executive Officer) has complicated direct negotiations. • Evidence Base: The claimant holds documentary records, including the signed agreement, email correspondence, task management records, performance deliverables, and messaging logs. Legal Analysis and Strategic Assessment 1. Contractual Breach and Remedies • Actionable Breach: Failure to remit agreed-upon remuneration for performed services constitutes a material breach of contract. Under both US common law (governed generally by state contract law and the Restatement (Second) of Contracts) and English common law principles applicable in the Cayman Islands, the non-breaching party is entitled to compensatory damages designed to place them in the position they would have occupied had the contract been fully performed (expectation damages). • Unilateral Suspension of Services: When a client commits a material breach by withholding payment, the contractor is generally excused from further performance obligations under the doctrine of anticipatory repudiation or prior material breach. • Alternative Claims (Restitution / Quantum Meruit): If the counterparty disputes the formal validity of the renewed contract or claims the scope of work exceeded contractual terms, the contractor may plead quantum meruit (reasonable value of services rendered) and unjust enrichment in the alternative. 2. Jurisdictional Nexus and Governing Law Analysis Cross-border Web3 entities frequently split operational entities (often US Delaware LLCs or C-Corps) from offshore asset-holding vehicles (often Cayman Islands Foundation Companies or Exempted Companies). Determining where to enforce depends on the contract terms: ┌────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Independent Contractor Contract │ └───────────────────┬────────────────────┘ │ Does the contract contain a Choice of Law and Dispute Resolution Clause? │ ┌──────────────────┴──────────────────┐ ▼ ▼ [ YES ] [ NO ] │ │ ┌───────────────┴───────────────┐ ┌──────────┴──────────┐ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ Arbitration Clause Forum Selection US Jurisdiction Cayman Islands (e.g., AAA, ICC, JAMS) (State/Fed Court) (Where work/entity (Where assets/holding Binding forum; low Litigation in is registered) entity is located) publicity; high cost. specified court. • Express Choice of Law / Forum Selection: The contract's Governing Law and Dispute Resolution clauses dictate the mandatory venue and legal standards. Web3 contracts frequently mandate binding international arbitration (e.g., AAA/ICDR, ICC, or LCIA). • Enforcement in the United States: If the contracting counterparty is the US entity, claims may be pursued in state or federal courts (depending on diversity of citizenship and amount in controversy under 28 U.S.C. § 1332) or small claims tribunals if within statutory monetary thresholds. • Enforcement in the Cayman Islands: If the counterparty is a Cayman Exempted Company or Foundation, claims above CI$ 15,000 (~US$ 18,000) are brought before the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. Under Section 94 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act, serving a statutory demand for an undisputed debt exceeding CI$ 100 is a powerful mechanism; failure to pay within 21 days can form the basis for a winding-up petition against the company on insolvency grounds. 3. Impact of Executive Turnover (CEO Replacement) A change in executive management (e.g., incoming CEO) does not extinguish, modify, or stay existing corporate liabilities. Under the principle of separate legal personality (Salomon v A Salomon & Co Ltd), the contracting corporate entity remains strictly liable for all obligations incurred by previous authorized officers and management. 4. Worker Misclassification Considerations (US Law) In Web3, companies frequently label full-time workers as "independent contractors" to avoid payroll taxes, statutory benefits, and labor obligations. • If the enterprise exercised significant control over working hours, methods, tools, and day-to-day operations, the relationship may be legally recharacterized as an employment relationship under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) or applicable US state tests (e.g., California’s "ABC Test" under AB 5 / Labor Code § 2775). • Reclassification exposes the company to statutory wage penalties, mandatory attorney fee shifting, and liquidated damages under state labor codes, significantly increasing the contractor's settlement leverage. Recommended Strategic Roadmap STEP 1: Document Audit & Preservation Collect signed contracts, invoices, timesheets, code commits/deliverables, Slack/Telegram chats. │ ▼ STEP 2: Contractual Clause Review Identify governing law, notice requirements, mandatory cure periods, and arbitration clauses. │ ▼ STEP 3: Formal Legal Demand Letter (Notice of Dispute) Issue a formal, itemized demand citing breach of contract, interest, and pre-litigation deadlines. │ ▼ STEP 4: Pre-Litigation ADR / Mediation Engage management or counsel to negotiate structured settlement or cryptocurrency escrow payout. │ ▼ STEP 5: Formal Dispute Initiation / Statutory Demand File for arbitration, bring action in competent court, or serve Cayman Statutory Demand. 1. Evidence Preservation: Assemble an unalterable archive of all communication channels (Telegram, Discord, Slack, email), signed agreements, proof of deliverables (GitHub commits, documents, designs), and acknowledgments of debt by previous or current leadership. 2. Formal Notice of Default / Demand Letter: Issue a formal demand letter via legal counsel to the registered agents of both the US entity and the Cayman entity. The demand should specify: • The contractual basis of the claim. • Total outstanding principal plus statutory pre-judgment interest. • A strict cure period (typically 14 to 30 calendar days). • Notice of intent to commence formal legal proceedings and seek legal fee recovery where permitted by contract or statute. 3. Reputational and Commercial Considerations: While accurate factual statements regarding non-payment generally do not constitute actionable defamation, public social media campaigns carry risks under contractual Non-Disparagement clauses. Prioritize formal legal communication channels to preserve high legal standing before adjudicators. References and Legal Authorities Statutory Provisions • United States Federal Law: 28 U.S.C. § 1332 (Diversity of Citizenship; Jurisdiction). • United States Federal Law: Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq. (Worker status and wage protections). • Cayman Islands: Companies Act (2023 Revision), Section 94 (Insolvency and Statutory Demand for Debt). Case Law and Legal Principles • Corporate Liability & Successor Continuity: Salomon v A Salomon & Co Ltd [1896] UKHL 1 — Fundamental doctrine of independent corporate personality surviving executive management transitions. • Contract Damages: Hadley v Baxendale (1854) 9 Exch 341 / Restatement (Second) of Contracts § 347 — Measure of expectation damages for material breach of commercial agreements. • Enforceability of Forum Selection Clauses: M/S Bremen v. Zapata Off-Shore Co., 407 U.S. 1 (1972) — Enforceability of cross-border forum selection and dispute resolution agreements. Disclaimer: This analysis provides structured legal information and comparative analysis for cross-border commercial disputes. It does not constitute formal legal advice or create an attorney-client relationship. Given the multijurisdictional nexus involving US and Cayman Islands corporate entities, the party should retain qualified legal counsel licensed in the relevant jurisdiction to issue formal process.

  @github Please fix gh stack.

  ATP (@ATPinsights) reported 50 minutes ago

  GitHub CLI just added image and video attachments today. Here's what you need to know. The gh command line tool now supports a repeatable --attach flag. It uploads a local image or video file and references it inline in an issue, pull request, or comment body. The feature is live now for all users on GitHub. It's aimed squarely at developers and coding agents that need to show visual proof, like before-and-after screenshots, directly from the terminal instead of the web UI. Developers reacted fast. Many called it a long-overdue fix for a common workaround, since teams previously built custom tools or scripts just to upload images to PRs from the CLI. Key facts: - New flag: --attach - Supports: images and video - Repeatable: yes, use it multiple times per command - Works in: issues, pull requests, comments - Availability: all users, live now No separate app or upload API is needed, the flag handles it inside gh itself.

  nine 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
