An underrated use case for bb plugins: custom web & mobile apps with agents built in.
I made a @posthog plugin in @get_bb_app. It's a custom metrics dashboard integrated with an agent, using my existing agent subscriptions.
Only good malleable software I've used in the LLM era is bb (and @pidotdev on terminal I guess). So good I could get the codex voice integration to be much more powerful in bb than in codex.
Started writing bb's plugin API docs then realized:
1) agents are the target user for API docs now
2) humans need a drastically different docs experience if they aren't writing code
So I'm using bb to build a bb plugin that interactively shows you how to build bb plugins.
bb 0.39.0 is out.
Large threads are much faster: one CSS selector made the browser restyle the whole page on every insert, and it's gone. Typing no longer re-renders the timeline, and side chat and model pickers load faster.
Child threads can now live in a different project from their parent, bb connect allows 20 servers and machines per account, and automations back off and auto-pause instead of hot-looping on failure. Plus a long list of fixes.

These lil hover cards I built are actually a plugin in the IDE I've been building with friends :)
Building bb + bb plugins is some of the most fun I've had building software.
Just yap at an agent and watch the IDE morph in front of your eyes.
