Terminal window showing lazydolt TUI interface with database commands and commit history for Dolt version control.

lazydolt is a terminal UI for Dolt built entirely by coding agents in an afternoon. Think lazygit but for a version-controlled SQL database.
Zach tested it. His read: "shockingly good prototype for the human time invested."

GitHub - aspiers/madolt: magit-like emacs mode for dolt magit-like emacs mode for dolt. Contribute to aspiers/madolt development by creating an account on GitHub.

Vibe-coded a couple of TUI apps for @dolthub.bsky.social from scratch yesterday. Before AI this would have taken weeks or even months. github.com/aspiers/lazy... and github.com/aspiers/madolt

Chicago, this is suspect. Chicago billed Medicaid $231.7M for ambulances in 2024; the EMS budget is $82M. Agent Mode in Workbench found 3 cities exploiting the same loophole. Read it👉 www.dolthub.com/blog/2026-03-11-chicago-...

When you add an agent to an app, it can't touch the UI.

We fixed that. In-process tools that fire the same events as a button click.

Your Time is All Messed Up: Time Implementations in Go We recently rewrote our implementation of `TIMESTAMPDIFF` in go-mysql-server and Dolt, and along the way, we had to make considerations for Go's implementations of time.

Found a bug in Dolt's TIMESTAMPDIFF: dates >292 years returned wrong values. Fixed using microsecond arithmetic. www.dolthub.com/blog/2026-02-20-go-time-...

Supporting Git remotes as Dolt remotes A deep dive into how we built the GitBlobstore, which enables using Git remotes as Dolt remotes, using Git plumbing commands, bare repositories, and force-with-lease.

You can now push a Dolt SQL database to the same GitHub repo as your source code.

User-Defined Set-Returning Functions in Doltgres Doltgres now supports PostgreSQL set-returning functions using RETURNS TABLE and RETURNS SETOF syntax, allowing SQL functions to return a set of records with multiple values, instead of just returning a single, scalar value. We continue to move closer to full support in Doltgres for all the features available through Postgres' user-defined functions.

Doltgres supports set-returning functions—RETURNS TABLE and SETOF. One function, unified logic, plus branches, diffs, and time-travel. www.dolthub.com/blog/2026-02-18-doltgres... #Postgres #DatabaseEngineering #Doltgres

Dolt's Extra Layers of Concurrency Dolt handles concurrency to individual branches via standard SQL transactions. Dolt also has an additional layer of concurrency management to deal with version control functionality. This article explains Dolt's concurrency layers.

SQL Rebase Edit Interactive rebase now supports editing commits during a rebase. Learn how to use this powerful feature to curate your commit history!

New in Dolt: `edit` action for interactive rebase.

The workflow:
→ dolt rebase --interactive
→ set action = 'edit' on the commit you need to fix
→ make your changes
→ dolt commit --amend
→ dolt rebase --continue

Nobody has to know about that typo...

Screenshot of a text written by Steve Yegge on Software thats ahead of its time. He is discussing Dolt, highlighting its use of Git version control for databases and agent-based production workflows.

Steve Yegge (Beads/Gastown): Dolt is "Ahead of its time." 🚀

As AI agents hit prod, Git versioning is the backstop. Dolt solves the "awareness problem," letting agents work safely.

The killer app for agentic workflows is here.

Dolt Durability Testing With VMs We've recently been building crash recovery testing for Dolt, adding confidence in its durability properties when running on different filesystems and with different settings. Here we describe a bit about our framework for running crash-durability tests against Dolt.

We crash Dolt VMs on purpose (10,000+ times) to validate crash recovery.
Hard reset mid-transaction → reboot → verify acknowledged writes.

Text reads "How It Works: A tour of Dolt's embedded SQL driver." Dolt logo in corner.

For Go programs, you can connect to Dolt without a separate server process—similar to SQLite.

This is how Gas Town connects to Dolt via Beads for agentic memory.

Agentic Memory Agentic memory is here, and it's powered by Dolt. This article explains what agentic memory is, defines requirements, and shows why Dolt is a perfect fit. Beads, the leading agentic memory system, uses Dolt for storage.

Key insights:
❌ Don't save all context—limits exist!
✅ Use structured task management like Beads for better performance.

Using Dolt with ORMs Object-Relational Mappers (ORMs) simplify application development by abstracting database interactions, and they pair naturally with Dolt, a MySQL-compatible, version-controlled relational database. This post explains how ORMs work with Dolt, highlighting tested integrations, useful Dolt features like schema overrides and nonlocal tables, and important considerations around branching and connection pooling.

ORMs meet version control 🔀

We tested 12+ ORMs with Dolt and documented everything:
- Schema overrides for historical data
- Nonlocal tables for global state
- Branch-specific connections
- Reflection on system tables
