You can’t solve AI-era delivery challenges by treating them as people problems, they’re systems problems. When ownership and feedback live at the system level, engineers feel safe to speak up and teams move faster. Tune into the full convo: https://youtu.be/dDu-sT11AvU

Sigstore’s Fulcio now recognizes CircleCI OIDC tokens! Sign containers and artifacts directly from your pipelines. No keys, no secrets, just verified provenance. Full walkthrough + example repo:

It’s the end of the year, and teams are asking the same question: Did AI really make delivery faster? In the latest Confident Commit, we unpack why the answer isn’t always yes, and how autonomous validation helps teams finally realize the ROI of AI-assisted development: https://circle.ci/4fPfRwo

The DevOps community runs on the work of engineers, maintainers, authors, and advocates who keep this industry moving. If a podcast, tool, or event made an impact on you this year, now’s your chance to recognize it! 💚 Vote now: https://circle.ci/4pjaz0c

What happens when AI ships code faster than your SDLC can handle? Our very own Michael Webster is tackling that question on stage at QCon AI New York, Dec 16–17! Join us:

AI is generating code faster than teams can review it, and massive PRs are slowing everything down. If the pipeline isn’t modernized, all that “AI speed” just gets stuck. Full breakdown here: https://circle.ci/4oEksER

AI doesn’t replace great developers, it amplifies them. As @lizthegrey.com and Justin share, teams that use AI effectively are increasing velocity and expanding headcount, not cutting it. Tune in for the full convo: https://circle.ci/491BGr6

AI makes coding faster. But shipping? Not so much. Even with a 60-minute PR-to-production pipeline, faster code generation didn’t move the needle. The real bottleneck is validation, not speed! Watch the breakdown: https://youtu.be/dDu-sT11AvU

This is Chunk. 👋 Our autonomous validation agent is now in open preview! Fixing flaky tests? Cleaning up tech debt? Speeding up builds? Perfect. Those are Chunk's favorite things to do. 😎 https://circleci.com/chunk/

We’re feeling extra thankful for everyone who stopped by our booths, talks, and meetups this month! And a huge shoutout to the folks on our team who spent November speaking, hosting, and showing up for the community. 💚

“If you’re selling velocity, you’d better be one of the fastest teams around.” In the latest ep of the Confident Commit, @fosterfriendship.bsky.social & Rob talk about what it takes to walk the walk on engineering velocity, and not just buy more tools. 🎧 https://circle.ci/48DDupd

Build agents that actually work together, not just call an API once. In this tutorial, we walk through how to: 🔍 Use CrewAI + Gemini to build a multi-agent “newsroom” 🧪 Write pytest checks to validate your agents 🔄 Automate everything with a CircleCI pipeline so you never ship broken crews

CircleCI is a finalist for the 2025 DevOps Dozen Awards! 🌟 We’ve spent this year helping teams ship with more confidence, meaning fewer flaky tests and more time to build. If CircleCI has supported you this year, we’d be grateful for your vote: https://circle.ci/4pjaz0c

We’re rolling in with a full squad to AWS re:Invent this year! Meet the engineers, execs, and field experts behind CircleCI at Booth #1451. We’ll be talking AI-native development, self-healing CI/CD, and what it takes to ship confidently on AWS in 2026. See you in Vegas. 👋

We’re at @qconferences.com 2025 next week! 👋 Come find the CircleCI team to talk pipelines, platform engineering, and how AI is changing software delivery. Join us: https://qconsf.com/

In town for #MSIgnite or #QConSF next week? Stop by to talk about something that’s on everyone’s mind: AI agents. Join us & Platform Engineering to discuss how teams are adapting their platforms to handle AI code securely & reliably. See you there! https://circle.ci/483eng5

Great engineers don’t just ship, they ask why! In the latest Confident Commit, Rob and Johnny Austin, VP of Engineering at Upwell, talk about hiring devs who challenge the backlog and focus on impact, not output. 🎧: https://circle.ci/49H7GBB

CDMX ✈️ NYC ✈️ Tokyo October consisted of hackathons, table talks, meetups, and so many great conversations around AI and CI/CD! Huge thanks to everyone who spent time with us and checked out Chunk in action. 🙌

👻 Happy Halloween! 🎃 We asked our team to share their own dev horror stories, and they didn’t disappoint. If you dare, swipe to relive tales of registry overwrites, lost backups, and one epic spam fail.

We’re collecting the spookiest stories from the dev community to help get everyone in the Halloween spirit! Here's @loderunner.bsky.social ⬇️

The 2025 DORA report is clear: AI amplifies what already exists. Solid systems get stronger, while broken ones break faster. Here’s how development teams are adapting:

New project, no ticket. 😎 With CircleCI’s Terraform provider, teams spin up projects automatically—complete with configs, secrets, and policies. Watch the full demo: https://circle.ci/4mVwY2g

Headed to @leaddev.com NYC? We’ll see you there! 🍎 We'll be on stage introducing Chunk, our new autonomous agent built to help teams ship AI-generated code with confidence. Catch our session & stop by our booth to learn more: https://circle.ci/4mGhv5K

CampAI w/ @auth0byokta.bsky.social brought hundreds of builders around one metaphorical fire. 🔥 We had so much fun watching founders and engineers connect over how to push software forward, together. Thanks to everyone who joined us!

Agents go beyond code generation. By combining reasoning with memory, control, and tool execution, they can adapt and act inside real systems. In CI/CD, that means fewer flaky tests, fewer blocked builds, and faster delivery. More in Confident Commit: https://circle.ci/4fPfRwo

Running tests on AI features looks just like any other suite! ✅❌ CircleCI’s MCP server brings deterministic testing to LLM-driven apps: https://circle.ci/4n2DhRE

You're shipping code faster with AI. Your CI/CD pipeline hasn't caught up. Chunk by CircleCI: your autonomous validation agent that fixes flaky tests, repairs builds, and optimizes performance while you sleep. Learn more: https://circle.ci/4ntkjUU

We’re bringing the builders together! Join us at the CircleCI HQ this Thursday (8/21) for AI HyperEngineering: ✅ Parallel Claude sessions on the same codebase ✅ Real-time context + memory strategies ✅ Agents running inside CI/CD pipelines Register:

No childhood PC. No early coding projects. Just one game of Minesweeper and someone telling @colabug.bsky.social she was an algorithmic thinker. Next thing she knew? She was writing C! #WeAreEngineers

@anjuansimmons.com knew he was an engineer the second the lights went out fixing a can opener. The test may have failed, but it definitely sparked his curiosity. 😅 Who else learned by blowing a fuse (literally)? #WeAreEngineers

Go from idea to a running pipeline in just two minutes—no tickets, no delays! With our Platform Team Toolkit, devs move fast while platform teams keep control and consistency, without the chaos that comes from unmanaged pipelines. Here's the full demo: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UU0c...

Rob asked engineers at #LDX3 where their journeys began, and the stories were as delightful as you’d imagine. Lara? She first learned HTML on Neopets. You could say Neopia was her first bootcamp! 🐱💻

From salvaging a bike in a river to frying a guitar in the name of improvement, Rob understands what drives engineers. It’s that restless belief that everything could be just a ✨little✨ bit better.

Do you debug your org like you debug code? 🤔 At @leaddev.com #LDX3 London, Rob & Olaf will share strategies to help engineering leaders diagnose bottlenecks, turn gut instinct into measurable insight, and set their teams up for success.‪ See you there!

We’re at @renderatl.com and we couldn’t be more excited to be surrounded by friends, builders, and some of the best energy in tech! This community shows up like no other, and we’re proud to be part of it. 🩷

Flaky tests got you down?? Here’s how to find (and fix) them quickly using CircleCI’s MCP server + Cursor. Happy building!

CI failure? No problem! Joel used CircleCI’s MCP server inside his IDE to diagnose the issue, get a fix, and kick off a passing build—without ever leaving his editor.

We’re headed to @infoq.com Dev Summit! Join Ryan on June 9 as he breaks down how to ship AI-powered software fast—without relying on vibes or manual fixes. Catch his session and start building smarter: circle.ci/4jiUgwR
