Rails World wouldn't be possible without the support of many sponsors. This year in Austin, be sure to stop by the Sponsor Lounge and meet our Gold sponsors: @PlanetScale, @HuntressLabs, @jetbrains, @rwx, @SerpApi (also one of our coffee sponsors!), and @clio_labs (also sponsoring the pre-registration event). Find them at their booths, say hello, and learn more about what they’re building.

Big thanks to all of these Gold Sponsors for your support this year. https://t.co/uJN0izNmLp #railsworld

Python Gem of the Day:

💎 Interlock: https://t.co/AwPUDBappf

- uv add interlock-cb
- Circuit breaker implementation for network calls (A circuit breaker temporarily stops calls to a failing service, helping prevent repeated failures and giving it time to recover).
- Supports FastAPI, Requests/httpx, and more.

AI Gem of the Day:

💎 Unsloth Desktop: https://t.co/E9Vn1eM3vm

- @UnslothAI released their desktop app, which allows users to run and train AI Models locally (supports Muse Glimmer)
- A strong competitor to LM Studio/Ollama
- Fully open-source app, no telemetry.

AI Gem of the Day:

💎Agent Plugins Standard: https://t.co/h5BcHWAe3z

- A plugin is a package containing skills and MCP server config.
- Plugins are supported by Claude, Codex, etc. But there was no common spec/standard for plugins.
- Vercel, Google, OpenAI, Cursor, etc are collaborating on this new standard. Once this is widely adopted, a single plugin implementation can work across IDEs and Coding CLI tools.

Excited to be speaking at PyCon AU 2026 in Brisbane! 🇦🇺🐍

I’ll be giving a talk on “Goodbye GIL: Exploring the Free-threaded mode in Python”, looking at what free-threaded Python changes, where it can improve performance, and the trade-offs involved.

💎What Codex Actually Sends to the Model: https://t.co/H3UbY3PSSF

@0xkato pointed @OpenAIDevs Codex CLI to a custom local server to see what requests it sends to the model backend. The post explains how Codex handles default tools, MCP servers, Agents.MD files, images, compaction, etc, inspected via real requests.

Hermes Agent can now search the live web with SerpApi!

We released an open-source SerpApi plugin for @NousResearch's Hermes Agent, giving it native access to:
• Google Search
• Google Maps
• Google News
• Google Shopping

Hermes automatically chooses the right search tool based on the request and receives compact, structured results designed for agent workflows.

My first video on @serp_api YouTube is live 📹: @pydantic AI Agents with Real-time Search

[SerpApi @SerpApi]

Our latest video is now live 🚀

Can a raw AI model know what the latest iPhone is?

We built a @pydantic AI agent with a local Qwen model, then added real-time Google Search with SerpApi, deep research capabilities, and MCP support.

The result: an agent that can answer current questions using live web data instead of relying only on its training data.

💎Trafilatura (pip install trafilatura) by @adbarbaresi : Python package and command-line tool for scraping and extracting web page content.

[SerpApi @SerpApi]

AI agents sound mysterious until you build one yourself.

At the core, an agent is just a loop:

user goal → model decision → run a tool → model observes result → repeat

Here's a beginner-friendly walkthrough on Building AI Agents in Python covering LLMs, prompts, memory, tool calling, MCP, and skills.

#AI Gem of the Day:

💎 Grok 4.5 (https://t.co/U1T6pSPtMC): @SpaceXAI released Grok 4.5 - co-trained with Cursor.
- The model achieves comparable performance to Claude Opus 4.8.
- It is priced more affordably than competing models from alternative labs at $2/M input and $6/M output.
- SpaceXAI also claims that the model is very token-efficient, using up to 4x fewer tokens on coding tasks.
