npx workoslaunches an AI agent, powered by Claude, that reads your project, detects your framework, and writes a complete auth integration directly into your existing codebase. It's not a template generator. It reads your code, understands your stack, and writes an integration that fits.The WorkOS agent then typechecks and builds, feeding any errors back to itself to fix.See how it works →

MCPs can be replaced by CLIs (command line interfaces) most of the time. This is because CLIs are composable and debuggable for both humans and LLMs, and they often don't require any extra background processes. As a result, CLIs should be preferred over MCPs in most cases.

Custom hooks are the wrong way to abstract useQuery, as they lock you into one hook, get messy with TypeScript generics, and can't be used outside components. Instead, use queryOptions to define your key and fetch function once, then spread it into whatever hook you need (useQuery, useSuspenseQuery, etc.) with per-usage options on top.

Computer programming is still a valuable career despite the advent of AI, as the core skills of problem-solving and complexity control will always be essential. Junior programmers should still actively write code rather than rely solely on AI generation, as this hands-on experience is necessary for developing a deep understanding.

A 747 pilot who wistfully noted that his highly skilled job offered no further opportunities for improvement or learning. The advent of AI coding agents makes programming feel somewhat familiar in cases of the nitty-gritty of code, as they reduce the need for deep understanding of underlying code.

In the age of LLMs, tech writers must acquire new habits beyond basic documentation, as AI can automate many routine tasks. LLMs help automate keeping documentation up to date easily.

AI coding assistants hallucinate outdated Clerk patterns. Clerk Skills connects Cursor, Claude Code, and Copilot to current SDK docs — so the auth code they write uses the right hooks, components, and middleware. Install in 2 minutes. Add Clerk Skills to your editor →

Superset is a desktop terminal designed for developers to run, monitor, and manage multiple CLI coding agents concurrently in isolated worktrees.

Ghostty is a fast, cross-platform terminal emulator that uses native UI and GPU acceleration for a better, higher-performance experience.

Anthropic has launched a new memory import tool for Claude, allowing users to transfer their accumulated context and preferences from other AI providers like ChatGPT or Gemini. The process is simple: users paste a special prompt into their current AI, copy the output, and then paste it into Claude's memory settings. This easy transferability suggests there's still no good lock-in or moat in the LLM industry.

US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth designated AI company Anthropic a "supply chain risk" for refusing military use of its AIs for surveillance and autonomous weapons, then quickly made a similar deal with OpenAI. However, OpenAI's stated safeguards have been criticized by many as they are not as transparent in their language compared to Anthropic.

All Gemini CLI users recently banned for violating Antigravity's Terms of Service by using third-party tools are being unbanned.

Andrej Karpathy's microgpt is a 200-line, dependency-free Python project that distills the fundamental algorithms for training and inferencing a GPT.

Software engineers can now vibecode custom software on-demand as they need it rather than pay for a subscription to another app.

Verified Spec-Driven Development (VSDD) is an AI-orchestrated software engineering methodology that fuses Spec-Driven, Test-Driven, and Verification-Driven Development with rigorous upfront specifications, formal verification, and adversarial review.
