Sounds very cringe
Not surprising for a $60M seed round
Do we have new words for smaller amounts or is this inflation at work?

Re: Ex-GitHub CEO launches a new developer platform for AI agents
#92Actually interesting, but how's that different from just putting your learning / decision context into the normal commit text (body) ? An LLM can search that too, and doesn't require a new cli tool. EDIT: Or just keep a proper (technical) changelog.txt file in the repo. A lot of the "agentic/LLM engineering frameworks" boil down to best approaches and proper standards the industry should have been following decades a…
After I have an ai dona task, I ask the next one to look at that plan and git diff and so ble check validate
I don't see the need for a full platform that is separate from where my code already lives. If I'm migrating away, it's to something like tangled, not another VC funded company
Re: Ex-GitHub CEO launches a new developer platform for AI agents
#93Really struggling to figure out what this is at a glance. Buried in the text is this line which I think is the tl;dr: "As a result, every change can now be traced back not only to a diff, but to the reasoning that produced it." This is a good idea, but I just don't see how you build an entire platform around this. This feels like a feature that should be added to GitHub. Something to see in the existing PR workflow.…
Github sucks now, for one; people are looking for an alternative.

#94Just have a data lake with annotated agent sessions and tool blobs (you should already be keeping this stuff for evals), then give your agent the ability to query it. No need for a special platform, or SaaS. As for SDLC, you can do some good automations if you're very opinionated, but people have diverse tastes in the way they want to work, so it becomes a market selection thing.
This is the way

#95Looking at the CLI implementation. Why not build on top of jj?
most people use git, jj has compatibility gaps

Seems they install a Git hook or something that executes on commit and saves your chatbot logs associated with the commit hash. This is expected to somehow improve on the issue that people are synthesising much more code than they could read and understand, and make it easier to pass along a bigger context next time you query your chatbots, supposedly to stop them from repeating "mistakes" that have already wasted your time.

#97Not sure what it is or what it does.
Uses AI to summarize coding sessions tied to commits. Commit hook > Background agent summarizes (in a data structure) the work that went into the commit. Built similar (with a better name) a week ago at a hackathon: https://github.com/eqtylab/y
Which only reinforces someone just lit $60M on fire. It's trivial to do this and there are so many ways people do things, having the AI build custom for you is better than paying some VC funded platform to build something for the average

What it does? Imagine a multi line commit message.
Yes yes a Dropbox comment. But the problem here is 1 million people are doing the same thing. For this to be worth 60M seed I suspect they need to do something more than you can achieve by messing around locally."
"Claude build me a script in bash to implement a Ralph loop with a KV store tied to my git commits for agent memory."

They also seem bothered by color photography in 2026. All style, no substance.

It extracts money from investors and allocates it to founders.
