What if you could package, distribute, and secure Agent Skills like you do with your container images, configuration, and libraries? This is my proposal for an open specification for managing Skills as OCI Artifacts, re-using the same tools and infra you already have thomasvitale.com/agent-skills...
Awesome new project by @lbroudoux.bsky.social and @kheddache.me, to expose APIs to AI agents.
I really like this blog post and their mindset on the problem reshapr.io/blog/from-co...
Betterleaks: a new open source Secrets Scanner from the author of Gitleaks. It's a drop-in replacement for Gitleaks with new filters, configurable validation, faster scans, more options, and built for the agentic era. #Git www.aikido.dev/blog/betterl...
I just published a blog post on an experiment I did with building a dry-run mode for the OpenTelemetry Collector. It's a work in progress, and was mainly built to scratch my own itch, but nonetheless -- enjoy!

The Go Checksum Database guarantees that every single Go build uses the same source for a given module version.
However, GitHub might not show you that code.
pkg.geomys.dev displays the canonical source of a Go module, and it comes with browser extensions to replace pkg.go.dev source links.
interesting move by @percona.bsky.social, spinning off #opensource project PerconaEverest to a new co and turning it to a multi-vendor #database provisioning on #Kubernetes (OpenEverest). aiming to donate it to the CNCF. A nice addition to the #cloudnative stack.

o16g.com is the best thing i've read in a week full of seriously great reads.
and now, as of two hours ago...with its own line of merch. do scroll down until you see the "honeycomb edition" shirts.. you will understand my excitement 😍🌈 www.bonfire.com/store/o16g/
hum ça me dit que "Cet album a été consulté sur trop d'appareils" ;-)
For those of us struggling with feeling devalued as programmers with the rise of AI, I present the following quote from Paul Graham:
"In programming, as in many fields, the hard part isn't solving problems, but deciding what problems to solve."
Est ce qu'il y a un meilleur moment que le vendredi fin d'après-midi pour faire une release ? ;-)

Really interesting. As always, push past the initial friction.
I really like the idea behind gryph github.com/safedep/gryph, it is hooking up onto your agents and create an audit trail log. It was simple to install, and did the job (I'm talking about the free opensource solution)
Merci à tous les orgas de la team @cloudnativedays.fr ! la barre était déjà haute après le KCD 2023, mais cette édition était vraiment top !
Vivement la prochaine ;-)
I wrote about Clawdbot/Moltbot/OpenClaw and Moltbook, the fascinating, weird and sometimes even useful social network for digital assistants to swap tips and gossip with each other simonwillison.net/2026/Jan/30/...
The Oxide RFD on using LLMs is exceptionally well written (h/t @bcantrill.bsky.social). This is a more coherent idea of what writing/text/language *is* and what's it's for---and why its expedited manufacture won't invalidate all aspects of that ontology---than a good chunk of the humanist hysterics.
Wahou assassin! Ça nous rajeunit pas tout ça ;-) en tout cas bravo pour le reste, sauf les blessures, et bonne année à toi aussi. Faut qu'on se fasse un dej un de ces jours!
The year of “reasoning” The year of agents The year of coding agents and Claude Code The year of LLMs on the command-line The year of YOLO and the Normalization of Deviance The year of $200/month subscriptions The year of top-ranked Chinese open weight models The year of long tasks The year of prompt-driven image editing The year models won gold in academic competitions The year that Llama lost its way The year that OpenAI lost their lead The year of Gemini The year of pelicans riding bicycles The year I built 110 tools The year of the snitch! The year of vibe coding The (only?) year of MCP The year of alarmingly AI-enabled browsers The year of the lethal trifecta The year of programming on my phone The year of conformance suites The year local models got good, but cloud models got even better The year of slop The year that data centers got extremely unpopular My own words of the year That’s a wrap for 2025
Here's my enormous round-up of everything we learned about LLMs in 2025 - the third in my annual series of reviews of the past twelve months

This year it's divided into 26 sections! This is the table of contents:
I have opinions about GenAI agents. Too many for Bluesky, so I wrote a whole blog post instead.

Merci pour votre super travail !
New post! ✨ Prompt caching ✨
My first big project post for @ngrok.com. 5 weeks, 12217 lines of code, 195 commits. I poured a lot into this one, and learned a lot in the process.
I really hope you enjoy it ❤️
Here's Emil's 17 step guide to how he used VS Code agent mode plus Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Gemini Pro 3 and Claude Opus to build the new library - it's a fantastic case study in using LLMs for serious, prediction quality code (vibe engineering, not vibe coding) friendlybit.com/python/writi...
Excellent read on the new changes to the MCP Spec - thanks @aaronpk.com!
Krew, not brew, of course...
want automatic completions for your kubectl brew plugins - or at least the ones written in go with the Cobra lib?

Smart hack - see the Readme for more details.
Time for a v1.0 ? ;-)
