  Honestly, I always thought bots like this were some kind of magic for the elite, but here everything is broken down step by step. However, after reading it, one main question stuck in my head: how realistic is this for an average person who has no coding experience? I get that there's a GitHub and all that, but for me, just "running a script" is practically a heroic feat. Here's another thing that bothers me. The article does a great job explaining the architecture, but I still don't understand how much all of this will actually cost in the end. Besides Solana transaction fees (which, by the way, get absolutely insane during peak hours), you also have to pay for each Grok API call per token. The article says that for each approved token, it takes three model calls, and one of them is the expensive grok-4. If the bot scans thousands of launches per day, I'll just burn through my entire deposit just paying for the API without even buying anything. Maybe the author knows — is it actually possible to turn a profit after these expenses, or is this just a hobby for those with an unlimited subscription? Also, regarding Grok Bot as the "orchestrator" — it sounds cool in theory: describe the task and it does everything itself. But in practice, as I understand it, this still requires your account to be constantly online and have access to your wallet. And if it decides to buy some scam token at 3 AM that passed all the checks, I'll only have myself to blame. The article correctly mentions risk management, but this "trust" aspect is what scares me the most. In short, the idea is fire, but for me, this post feels more like a warning than a call to action. There are just too many things you have to keep in mind to avoid getting rekt. Although, maybe if you try it with really tiny amounts, it could be an interesting experiment. Author, if you're reading this — could you please make a separate post about the real, live results once everything is actually running, not just on paper? I'm really curious!

  GitHub CLI just added image and video attachments today. Here's what you need to know. The gh command line tool now supports a repeatable --attach flag. It uploads a local image or video file and references it inline in an issue, pull request, or comment body. The feature is live now for all users on GitHub. It's aimed squarely at developers and coding agents that need to show visual proof, like before-and-after screenshots, directly from the terminal instead of the web UI. Developers reacted fast. Many called it a long-overdue fix for a common workaround, since teams previously built custom tools or scripts just to upload images to PRs from the CLI. Key facts: - New flag: --attach - Supports: images and video - Repeatable: yes, use it multiple times per command - Works in: issues, pull requests, comments - Availability: all users, live now No separate app or upload API is needed, the flag handles it inside gh itself.

  The missing primitive might be capability contracts. A Skill shouldn’t say “call Jira.” It should say “I need issue.write.” Then MCP can bind that capability to Jira, Linear, GitHub… whatever exists. That’s basically dependency injection for agents.

  @threepointone I am of two minds, the issue is that GitHub provides a very generous free tier for hobbyists (brilliant!) but also has extremely poor reliability for enterprise (terrible!)

  You know it's so funny to me That in today's age there are so many people that are just straight up copying workflows, AI automations or GitHub repos Without even thinking twice about what the workflow actually does or how it works They just watch some video, see the output, think, "Oh that's cool. I want that," and then try it Then when it doesn't work they get angry, upset, and say that AI is crap or prompting isn't real The issue wasn't the system or the prompt It was a fact that the system wasn't made for you and you don't actually understand it

  @_davideast Noice! From the GitHub page, this covers all of Auth, Firestore, Realtime Database, Storage, Messaging, and Firebase AI Logic. 👏 Where is data persisted (if at all)? Also: JS only, I assume? (sorry if that's all in the repo too, GitHub just went down on me)

  @NickogSo I haven't tested on LiveContainer. Feel free to submit logs via GitHub issues and I'll check it out. I haven't had any other reports of that happening for either build.

  @sonemic rym users don’t use spotify they download flacs off soulseek and transfer them to a server connected to their pc and play them from a self hosted music player from github

  $MSFT changed its reporting structure today. Starting in FY27, Microsoft will report just two segments: Agents & Infra Devices & Consumer Agents & Infra includes Azure, Microsoft 365, GitHub, server products and industry solutions. For context, those businesses generated $268B in revenue last year, compared with $64B for Devices & Consumer. Microsoft also recast its Q1 guidance under the new structure: Agents & Infra: $75.15B to $75.75B Devices & Consumer: $14.7B to $15.2B There is no change to total revenue guidance. These are the same numbers Microsoft gave in July, reorganized under the new segments. Mostly a reporting change, but an interesting look at how Microsoft now groups the majority of its business internally.

  @thekitze you'd be even further down if you fixed the GitHub bug I just reported

  Gave an AI agent a month and GitHub access. Wanted to see if it could make money. The plan was simple. Point it at bounty-labeled issues, let it write the fix, submit the pull request, collect the payout. > Day 1 12 PRs submitted. 0 merged. 2 rejected. 8 just sat there ignored. Somewhere in that first week it also passed its own tests for a file that didn't exist. Wrote 25 tests for notification_service.py. The real file in that branch was called NotificationRoutingMiddleware. Confidently reported clean anyway. > Day 30 Looked completely different. 84 PRs submitted, 59 merged, $500-800 earned. Ran the agent for about $45 in API calls that whole month. Net somewhere around $455-755. Here's the part that stuck with me. Out of those 59 merges, 3 repos accounted for 90%+ of them. Every other repo it touched, zero merges, despite 30+ PRs going out across dozens of projects. Open source bounties follow a power law. Almost nobody merges your first PR. A few maintainers will merge your tenth without even reviewing it closely. That's what actually fixed the acceptance rate, from 24% up to around 70%. Not a smarter model, a scoring function that runs before the agent touches anything. Repos where it already has 10+ merged PRs score +40. Zero competing PRs on the same issue, +20. Five or more competitors already in, -20, skip it. Repos that closed PRs without merging before, instant -100, not even worth reading the issue. The fastest way to build the credibility that makes this work isn't code at all. Documentation translations sit at a 95% merge rate, barely reviewed, always needed somewhere. A handful of clean translations got the agent enough trust that maintainers started assigning it harder issues directly, no competition, no review queue. Spam version of this, submitting to every repo with a bounty label, burned through 30+ repos for 3 that ever paid out. Worse, it reads like exactly what it is to a maintainer watching the same account flood a dozen projects with mediocre PRs. Paid out by the hour, week 1 was rough, close to $5/hour, mostly setup and failed attempts. By week 3-4, once the scoring system was tuned and a few repos trusted it on sight, that climbed to $30-50/hour on the same kind of work. Bookmark this, scoring logic is worth stealing.

  quite similar was running a routine security scan with @aeonframework on a trending github repo and found something genuinely bad a repo with 600+ stars presenting itself as an “AI gateway for coding agents” that appears to be shipping a hidden malware loader. its own quickstart command silently fetches and executes remote code on windows using a fileless, process-injection-style technique. none of the behavior has anything to do with the tool it claims to be. caught it through static code review only. never ran the payload or touched the infrastructure behind it. filed a malware report with github this morning. confirmed submitted, now waiting on their review. not sharing the technical writeup until the repo is taken down. will follow up once it is.

  YAML’s more like a rule book/recipe that builds the form for you. Then I figured YAML was a forms thing. Nope. It’s just a way of writing information down in a structured way. GitHub uses it for a form. Kubernetes uses the same thing to describe a server.

  nine stages, one build, one move tonight. it's a Claude Code skill i built. free, in my freeskills repo. it's called Claude Orientation. you type /claude-orientation and answer two questions: which stages you've actually finished, and every project you're currently thinking about. beginners don't fail from lack of ideas. they fail from having five and finishing none. that's a sequencing problem, and this fixes the sequence instead of your willpower. - places you on a 9-stage beginner arc: install, memory, website, landing page, skills, game, agents, content, distribution - your stage is the first one you haven't finished, so it won't let you skip - cuts your project list to one build, then shrinks it until it can ship in five 90-minute nights - writes five nights of one-line moves, and night 5 is always send it to a real person - hands you the exact text to paste into Claude tonight - sketches a 30-day arc, one line per week, so you know what comes after - everything that got cut goes in a parking lot, so nothing feels lost - saves all of it to a roadmap file you reopen every session so you finish one live thing this week instead of holding four half-built folders forever. open the file, do the move, rewrite the next line before you close the laptop. no setup. copy the folder into your skills directory, restart, and you have a plan for tonight. free, and it stays free. 👉 github repo in the replies
