Announcing our first-ever Ship Week: April 20-24 We've been heads-down building, and can't wait to show what's coming. Five days. New launches every day. Stay tuned. P.S. Want a first look? We're inviting beta testers to get early access and share feedback.

Introducing clidoro 🍅 Every pomodoro timer broke my terminal workflow until I built this. Built for humans (TUI) and AI agents (skills). Pomodoro timer for your terminal. $ 𝚗𝚙𝚡 𝚌𝚕𝚒𝚍𝚘𝚛𝚘

What if you never had to get an API key ever again? You can spend 5 min (vibe) coding an app, but 30 min getting the API keys We need OpenRouter for all APIs. But as a protocol Meet x402, my first real use for crypto www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqr4...

Big announcement, next week!

yay we're trending on github! ⭐️

For the Winter Olympics, I’m done with vibe coding and have moved onto vibe curling.

The latest in my "startups as bands" series. 🎸 "The best founders do the same. Strategy changes. Products get rebuilt. Markets shift. But the reason these people are working together remains intact. As investors, this matters more than any roadmap." pwv.com/news/post-wh...

It's so cold in Boston right now that packs of coyotes are able to cross the water today. 📸: @jcass35

holy crap! dan abramov knows about val town!

new thing at @val.town - every val gets a database! plus a database browser / ui. blog.val.town/scoped-datab... maybe the coolest part: if you fork someone's val, you get a copy of the database schema.

400,000,000 lines of shell, here we comeeee 🚀

we rebuilt @val.town's ai agent from scratch for the 5th time, and it's pretty great! would love any feedback :) blog.val.town/townie-v5

just built a fun little GitHub link preview for Atuin Desktop! what else should we support?

lots has shipped this week for Atuin Desktop! 🐢 ✨ ai assistant for authoring + editing runbooks 💅 pretty new sidebar ⚙️ compose your workflows with sub-runbooks 🛜 better SSH config support

To start 2026 I officially joined @stevekrouse.com, @macwright.com, and co. at @val.town as a programmer-writer, part-time while I continue writing my book :) Val Town's founding poem is still my favorite way to describe what it is: > If GitHub Gists could run > And AWS Lambda were fun

We just published our first public case study. modany.com has been using @tuist.dev since 2022. They had followed the project for years, and @natanrolnik.bsky.social was even on the core team. 3 years later: 200 modules, CI from 20+ min to 9. tuist.dev/case-studies...

11.14 is live! And we included something SUPER cool to cap off 2025... Remember when we shipped MCP and you could finally talk to your Directus instance through Claude or ChatGPT? Cool, but also meant keeping two apps open. We fixed that! ✨ AI Chat ✨ is now a sidebar in the Data Studio.

It's not a secret anymore: Tuist is coming to Android 🤖 Caching, insights, and the features you've loved in Xcode projects, now for Gradle. One solution across platforms, ready for agents. DM me if you want to be first in line 👀 https://community.tuist....

Owning 1% of every AI company isn’t a strategy; it’s a very expensive form of FOMO. pwv.com/news/post-re...

Founders, this was fun to write. I came up through building startups, not traditional finance, and that shapes how I think at @pwv.com. Writing it out reminded me exactly why I chose this path: to be in it with you. Deeply, thoughtfully, and in service of your creativity. pwv.com/news/post-wh...

launching a coding agent soon, we'll be competing with Cursor/Copilot and all other dumb coding agents that learn nothing from you. i'm so excited to share command code soon!!

“152 stars today” 😌

Super excited about commandcode.ai coding agent with taste. It's a meta neuro-symbolic reasoning space with continuous reinforcement learning (RL). We combine reasoning with neural intuition to create an invisible architecture of choices, we call taste. Just sent out alpha invites.

i'm hiring a 'growth engineer' to work side-by-side with me at val.town in brooklyn we're a small team on a mission to spread the joy of programming we're looking for someone self-directed, loves talking to users, write english & typescript, and own projects end-to-end if this is you, reach out!!

We built the fund we wanted as founders. After a decade of building and investing with cos like GitHub and Stripe, we’re excited to share PWV Fund I, early-stage capital for technology founders creating what’s next. Ideas start with founders. Founders start with PWV. 🔗 pwv.com/news/post-an...

Made a Slack-o-lantern that hits you with the Slack notification sound and logo when you walk by. 👻 now baAAck toOOO WooOOrk 👻

Trending and HN again this weekend 😁 I guess people like it 🥹

Finally sharing what I’ve been building for almost a year now! 🐢✨ Atuin Desktop: runbooks that run It’s open source and in open beta now 🥰 Built for engineers who need repeatable, reliable workflows. No more copy-pasting from slack or outdated docs

A fortuitous start to @climateweeknyc.bsky.social: our $7.2M seed round makes the news! techcrunch.com/2025/09/22/e...

Atuin Desktop now has tabs! We've been working hard to get this ready for open beta, and making it feel like a real editor is important In recent weeks, we've also released support for local, file based workspaces - check them into a git repo, sync them however you want

#ClimateWeekNYC is almost upon us, as is the "What is the future of AI Weather Forecasting?" panel with @rabernat.bsky.social, @juliangsf.bsky.social, @mikepritchard.bsky.social, Google, Sorcerer and NVIDIA on Tuesday, September 23. Come join us! luma.com/svimvi2y?tk=...

We're offering early access to Tuist QA. If you're keen on integrating it into your iOS projects—whether they're in Swift, React Native, or Flutter—send me a direct message, and we'll arrange the setup for you. tuist.dev/qa

Wish I had tools like blog.sourcetable.com/fantasy-foot... from Sourcetable when I was messing about with sports start back in 2015 cc @tcash21.bsky.social

Perhaps the biggest Atuin Desktop update yet! Highlights 1. Orgs! Share runbooks and workspaces with your team 2. MySQL block 3. Invite friends to try the app right away, no waitlist Changelog: forum.atuin.sh/t/desktop-de...

Last night, I gave a talk about AI, programming, & vibe coding www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WC8...

📰 Val Town Newsletter 25! So. Many. Product. Announcements. 🗂️ Multi-file Vals 🦾 New Townie ＞ Local development 🤝 Val Town for Teams 🔎 New Search 🏢 Val Town Hall 🌟 Community Vals Read it here 👉 blog.val.town/newsletter-25

vals have multiple files! and folders! you can clone them locally! and use cursor! or vim! or townie! which itself is a val! which means it can edit itself! code search & our blog are also now vals! everything's a val! you get a val! you get a val! everyone gets a val!

"Enthusiasm" in the internet economy is a topic I've recently read about, and I wrote a small piece reflecting on it from my observations and personal experience: pepicrft.me/blog/2025/0...

Very excited to announce that I'll partner with @redwoodjs.com over the coming months to improve Cloudflare worker support for @livestore.dev

We're kicking off our open source fellowship program by sponsoring @schickling.dev from @livestore.dev It might seem surprising to sponsor LS as it is a data layer that brings data closer to the UI, traditionally a server's job, and we're a server-first framework. More: rwsdk.com/blog/rwsdk-x...

Vibe code ai agents with us in this free workshop today at 8:30am PT with me and Langbase founding engineers. How we built CHAI .new. This will be almost like an AI engineering course taught live in a workshop style. We will build and deploy several ai agents. Join below.

What if Lovable, bolt, v0 were built in themselves? The new Townie is 100% open-source and is itself built on Val Town. (It can edit itself!) It's not for one-shot demos, but for building complex full-stack projects Code, prompt, branch, pull request Already always deployed

Wanna talk about bias in publicly funded media? I scraped the Sesame Street wiki to figure out which letters of the alphabet were featured in each episode. Y axis is number of episodes featured. You all aren't ready to discuss the difference between P and Q

For the first time, you can vibe-code any AI agent. Meet Chai.new — Computer Human AI by Langbase ☕ 🔹Prompt: "make an agent that…" 🔹Sip: chai builds any AI agent 🔹Ship: every agent gets a UI 🤯 Like your on-demand AI Engineer. What will you s(h)ip today?

Big congrats to @langbase.com on launching chai.new — go from concept to custom agent in seconds not days. I’ve been beta testing and am convinced it’ll change how we build AI-backed apps.

The team at @unkey.com are really cooking with the dashboard refresh. - Key creation with immediate feedback - Multiple ratelimits on a single key - Metadata with JSON formatter - Warning when you dismiss that we only show it once Live in production now.

what a week 🤩

We believe software can be personal again. Not just technically, but philosophically. Owned. Forkable. Beautiful. RedwoodSDK: The complete toolkit for the modern web that respects web standards and your freedom

Vals are getting upgraded! We are unifying vals and projects into a single primitive: the val – a collaborative folder of deployed code – that includes all the best features of vals & projects 👉 blog.val.town/upgrading
