@vaishnavsm_ @buildkite We hope you're enjoying the new terminal/cli experience of the WWW @vaishnavsm_ .

We fixed this for you btw 😜

Wonder how many new signups @buildkite and @CircleCI get every time there is a GH Actions outage...

[Gayan @hewadotme]

Built one of the most time saving skills for Claude today. One that works with @buildkite bk cli that helps debug issues with my PRs. This allows me to quickly fetch failing error logs and kick off a debug session that will try to identify the problem.

The references section in the skill allows me to customise the skill to the project I was working for. This way common failure patterns are easily identified and responded. I am amazed at the fact the turn around to get something functional and useful took less than an hour.

If you're hating life on Github Actions you should really look at @buildkite . It's a ceiling raiser, and with agentic coding you can have everything launched in hours so why not?

Looking for some rad folks to come work with me in the freshly minted Brand & Design team at @buildkite.

If you're someone who wants to get a bit weird and wild with brand and product, say no to pigeonholing, and help shape Buildkite design from the ground up then let's talk 🤜
