Saw the GH Copilot project demo at Universe put on by @JamesMontemagno and the Tiny Clips team. It was impressive. Same agent harness and tasks awareness across Slack, VS Code, CLI, and GH Copilot. Projects bucket all the important things for a product or project into a single workspace spanning repos but retaining context.

We're back from San Jose. Don't believe we got enough. Here's my take on the agentic news of the day with inputs from my esteemed colleagues.

Looking forward to cohosting HH with @TryArcade and @AgenticAIFdn and having @ASalkever speak and hang with us at the HH before DE LA SOUL!

Me at the De La Soul show AGNTCon Community Party on Oct. 21

Sabi has raised $50 million to develop a wearable that could turn your thoughts into instructions for AI agents. Reliable everyday thought decoding is still unproven, but the ambition gives us plenty to think about. Read today's Daily Agentic.

Our latest Daily Agentic. Feedback always welcome, of all stripes. :)

Sam Altman and crew made more than 20 announcements at DevDay. The throughline? OpenAI is moving toward an agentic future, and it wants developers to build there with them. @ASalkever Editor-in-Chief @linuxfoundation + @AgenticAIFdn breaks it all down.

Your customer’s agent is coming to your business. Coding agents are outrunning review. Researchers found agents can know they shouldn’t act, then do it anyway. Plus AI in Korea’s bank hacks and Atlassian giving agents identities. Daily Agentic is up.

Meanwhile, back on the other side of social media.

So, they had us at "Le Chonk" -- we admit it. Clearly, a naming agency was not engaged for this assignment and we respect that. Lots more in this edition, from a new personal agent protocol to a new tiny Gemma from Google to a Black-Box viral sensation.

TikTok gets the agent drop, from "want" to "got" faster. Meanwhile, sightings of fleets of agents executing complex intelligence tasks autonomously hark the down of a new era. Plus German AI and a new AI Box so all your context belongs to you.

Here’s everything I learned about building Glass Town, my software factory: • Why I put my software factory in a persistent env • How to use an MCP server to manage the env • How I used Entire to make the factory transparent

A prompt bloat flag at C.H. Robinson traced back to a code error that kept a service in a retry loop, using tokens again on every pass. Jason Ward on tracking AI spend with observability metrics.

This is gutsy. Own it. Run it back. Thank you for doing this @OpenAIDevs. Right on.

The web was built for humans. Agents said cool, but where’s our interface? WebMCP, MCP Apps, and A2UI are building the second layer of the web — made for agents, with humans still in the loop. @ASalkever breaks it down: bit.ly/3VWBYvk Want to go deeper?

Who is that masked headline writer?

"As a company we are spending $2 per million token. What does it mean? It doesn't mean anything." Kuntal Patel and Abhinav Lad of Palo Alto Networks on why per-token cost is a weak KPI, and what they measure once agents start looping on their own.

Good lord...@Dpbrinkm can edit! Now i'm even more jazzed to be speaking at this. Come join him, and me, @dsp_, @techgirl1908, and lots more @AgenticAIFdn's AGNTCon in San Jose. Oh, and DM me if you want 10% off, I have a code!
