I've been loving AI automation lately. Redundant, repeated tasks are the bane of my existence (and prob yours too). I recently built one for our team with great success! I wrote about it here: geekforbrains.com/blog/automatio…
Recent "thinking" message from Sidekick CLI after failing a few attempts to update a file: "This is maddening. I can see the issue, but I am having trouble forming the correct `update_file` command. Let me try reading the entire file..." You got this lil buddy.
Drink every time Claude Code says "You're absolutely right" 🥃
Ok, shipping PRs from my phone via @OpenAI’s Codex is so fun. Setup a GitHub workflow with tests, auto deployment, and you’re cooking anywhere

I give you Sidekick 🤖🧠 An open source, agentic CLI developer I've been working on, greatly inspired by tools like Claude Code. A pet project that get out of control 😅 Still in beta, but would love your feedback: github.com/geekforbrains/…
Good god, Gemini 2.5 is smart! 🔥 Shoutout to @pydanti_ai - it was a seamless drop-in replacement for Sonnet in the CLI developer agent I’ve been working on. 🎉
If AI can help you write Swift and Kotlin, why use React Native? I’m actually asking. It used to be speed of development. I feel like that playing field is level now. Thoughts?
The new @OpenAI Agent SDK looks fun. Pretty close to PydanticAI but a little “slimmer” github.com/openai/openai-…
I've been working on my own CLI-based developer agent for fun. It's been quite the learning experience and has given me MAJOR respect for the team behind Claude Code. No small task. 🙇🏻♂️
I feel like I spend half my day watching AI do my work for me... I should be more productive.
