QA [quality assurance] has always been kind of broken. As AI transforms code generation, traditional QA approaches fall short. Jennifer Sand, CEO & co-founder of Codential, explores the necessity for a new quality framework to address issues in AI-created code. ainativedev.io/news/beyond-...

AI hates legacy code. AI coding agents feel like magic... right up until they collide with production code. For teams maintaining legacy systems, these agents often hallucinate APIs, run off on tangents, and shatter trust faster than an unreviewed hotfix at 5pm. 🧵 1/3

Specs are becoming the new code. @jedi.be just dropped his insights on spec-driven development, and it's essential reading for anyone building with AI agents. The core insight? We're shifting from telling AI how to code to describing what we want built. Read the full piece: ainativedev.co/94af0c

AI Native DevCon is back, and bigger than ever! Join us Nov 18–19 in New York (and online) for two action packed days of conference sessions and hands-on workshops for developers building with and for AI. Head over to ainativedev.io/devcon to see the full line up!

Prompts are temporary. Specs are forever. OpenAI’s Sean Grove calls specs the “new code.” They force you to decide what good output looks like before you run the AI. Think reusable clauses, version control, IDEs that validate your spec as you write. 🧵 #AINativeDev #AIEngineering

AI coding tools are powerful, but without structure, they drift. Claude Taskmaster attempts to fix that, and its growth has been explosive. In just 9 weeks the repo's jumped from 0 → 15,500 stars 🌟

Why code alone isn’t enough anymore 🚫💻 Most AI tools today just help us write more code, but the real shift is moving beyond code as the source of truth. At our first London meetup, we dug into a better approach: spec-driven development.

🔥 Roasting your README with AI? Shopify just open-sourced Roast, a Ruby framework for reliable, versioned AI workflows.

Structure > force. One structured prompt = same accuracy as eight unstructured ones (via Will Kurt, .txt). For Claude Code users: clearer specs mean faster output, less context bloat, reusable prompts. 🔗 Read how specs can elevate your coding workflow. ainativedev.co/bm3 #ClaudeCode #SpecDriven

Taming Claude Code for CI/CD? Terminal setup is easy. Scripting it for pipelines? Not so much! Jump into a quick guide on automating Claude for DevOps: ✅ API key scripting ✅ Direct config edits ✅ MCP server setup ✅ Pre-set tool permissions 🔗 ainativedev.co/0qn #ClaudeCode #AINativeDev #DevOps

Claude Taskmaster is blowing up in the AI dev world, and for good reason. It takes messy prompts to clean specs and bite-sized, dependency-aware tasks. Some devs report 90% fewer errors! 🧵

Agent-based coding ≠ just pair programming anymore. We’re seeing something bigger: ▪️ Parallel agents handling subtasks ▪️ Isolated envs via git worktrees + containers ▪️ New UIs for merge + review 🔗 Your guide to parallelizing AI coding agents: ainativedev.co/tg5 #ainativedev #aiagents

Parallel coding agents are changing the Developer workflow. With tools like Claude code we are exploring parallelization strategies like using git worktrees and containers. All for us to review what we want while the agents do the hard work! #AINativeDev #DevTools #DevOps

Cursor 1.0 just dropped. Its biggest update since launch, and a glimpse at where AI-native development is headed. New in this release • BugBot (inline PR reviews) • Async Background Agents • Jupyter + MCP support • Project Memories • Visual plans in chat 🧵⬇️

You log off. Your agents keep working. ⚙️ Augment Code’s Remote Agents are now available in VS Code. They handle refactors, tests, bug fixes, and docs, while you’re offline 🧵

“Vibe coding” with real UI context? Stagewise is an open-source VS Code extension that lets you click on a live UI element and prompt an AI to change it. It pipes in HTML, screenshots, and context, so the AI knows exactly what you mean. It’s early, but promising! #AINativeDev #FrontendDev

🎙 We're joining Port for a live webinar on how #GenAI is reshaping platform engineering. 📅 June 16 | 1PM EST We'll cover: - AI infra stack - Org design: Who owns what - How IDPs deliver GenAI to devs 📩 Register: ainativedev.co/4f2 #AIEngineer #AINativeDev #Webinar

📝 Specs are the new code. Prompting was just the start. The next level of AI-native development is Specification Driven Development and Sean Grove (OpenAI) nailed why 🧵

🚧 Using AI tools like you did 6 months ago is a mistake. ↳ Coding agents are reshaping how we interact with code editors and prompts. Patrick Debois shares insights from the AI Engineer World’s Fair, including what’s working in practice. 🔗 ainativedev.co/qz4 #AINativeDev #AIDev #AIEngineer

devs: you might want to try this one 👀 Mistral's new open-source model for coding agents, Devstral, hit 46.8% on SWE-bench verified. That’s higher than some proprietary giants. We tested it, check out the write up! ainativedev.co/fa9 #ainative #opensourceai #devstral

Connecting your agent to GitHub? Invariant uncovered a case where a malicious issue can prompt your agent to leak private repo data to a public PR. No malware involved, just prompt injection.

Agents are the new users. Netlify’s CEO argues it’s time to design platforms for bots, not just humans. He calls it Agent Experience (AX). Could it be the next evolution after UX and DX? Dion Almaer breaks it down here: ainativedev.co/1yd #AX #AIdev #AgentExperience

GitHub’s Copilot Agent now runs in the cloud; drafting PRs, writing code, and iterating on reviews autonomously. It respects CI rules and repo protections, and uses server configs (MCP) for tool access. We got hands-on with the dev experience: 🔗 ainativedev.co/chg #Build2025 #AIdev #AINativeDev

Most code models generate one token at a time. Gemini Diffusion doesn’t. It denoises full sequences in parallel, with: - Major speed gains (~5x over Gemini Flash) - Built-in error correction Is it production-ready? Not yet. Is it interesting? We think so. ➡️ https://www.ainativedev.co/99j #LLM#AI

JVM devs, this one’s for you: Rod Johnson (Spring) just dropped an OSS agent framework. JVM-native, Kotlin-based, and focused on agentic flows mixing LLM-prompted interactions with code and domain models. #Java #Kotlin #AINativeDev #News #OSS

Sourcegraph's Amp is now open to everyone! Amp is their new agentic coding tool built for deep prompting, VS Code-native workflows, and real developer feedback loops. Dion Almaer comments on this release: https://www.ainativedev.co/a00 #AINativeDev #AITools #VSCode #AgenticCoding

Gemini Diffusion might be easy to overlook, but it could quietly shift how code gets generated. Instead of predicting tokens left to right, it refines full sequences in parallel. - ~1500 tokens/sec. - Less locked-in errors. - Better for editing and refactoring. ➡️ https://www.ainativedev.co/99j

12 MCP Servers That Will Make You A More Productive Developer. MCP servers are like APIs for your agent’s brain. You define the tools. The agent learns to use them. And suddenly, your LLM can run a Docker container or file a GitHub issue. 👉 12 MCP servers to tinker with: www.ainativedev.co/409
