Chimp just got a significant upgrade! You can now build both typesafe MCP servers & clients, with just a couple of lines of code. Using any approach to writing Scala, in the spirit of Tapir & sttp.
+ a new documentation site, to get up to speed quickly

A bunch of updates for sttp-client 4:
• Scala Native support for the http4s backend
• cookie propagation across redirects using a CookieStorage
• three bug fixes, both found & fixed by AI
Enjoy :)

The 2026 #Scala survey results are in! Thank you for your participation :)

Through a series of experiments, we've prepared a direct-style #Scala Skill for Claude Code.
We wanted to make sure that it only contains what's really necessary, and to help Claude where it stumbles. Even with a 1M window, context remains precious!
That way, we've arrived at a core set of guidelines, covering FP, tooling and coding style, plus a set of fetch-on-demand, use-case driven guides.
Try it out, generate some #Scala! if you witness AI having problems with some part of the ecosystem - just create an issue.
New Metals release is out! It includes support for stdio in the Metals MCP server, as well as a new way to decompile class files.

Hey, the Scala 2 bytecode optimizer just got ported to Scala 3!
While writing nice, high level code, let the optimizer then make it faster.
Try it out today on Scala 3.8.3-RC3 with -opt.

Anthropic says JSON tool calls aren't the best thing since sliced bread and that if your agent glues tool calls together using code, it becomes 37% more token-efficient with less inference and better accuracy. Should you just let it write Python in a docker sandbox though? 1/8
Should your agent get prompt-injected and generate code that tries to, for example, send classified data to an external server, it would be a compile error as classified data simply can't flow into network calls. 7/8
