Meet the new BREACH 💥

This version is much more focused on the actual game.

Better gameplay. Better UX. More powerups. Difficulty that keeps ramping up.

Built with @threejs + Blender, with GPT-6 Astra helping along the way.

@prasenx We tried something similar at Nines too, but its just crappy feels like a Sonnet or Haiku.

We’re slowly growing.

Join the early players now, before the arcade gets a lot harder to win.

Last week, outages at Cursor, GitLab and npm opened the Nines arcade four times.

If you haven’t seen it yet, Nines is a small browser arcade that only opens when developer tools go down. Players compete for the top spot, and the winner gets a prize.

Hopefully tools stay up this week. If they don’t, we might have something for you to do while you wait.

@Pranto39 We're #1 on ClapStorm this week if you want to clap us up: https://t.co/aohgiijby4

@hamiltonulmer This is the useful kind of benchmark. The first version being 20x slower than the reworked extension says a lot about how much the surrounding data path matters.

@Prathkum The typed-decision framing clicks. A lot of agent plumbing turns into prompt parsing and defensive checks, so making the contract explicit should remove a lot of glue code.

We’re #1 on ClapStorm this week.

Tiny arcade that only opens when developer tools go down. If that sounds useful, a clap helps us hold the board through Sep 23.

@rxwei On-device plus Private Cloud Compute is a practical split for automation. The zero-setup part matters too, because a local tool only becomes useful when it is easy to try from an existing workflow.

@zcode_ai Open sourcing after a security incident is a meaningful way to rebuild trust. The useful test now will be how quickly outside contributors can review the boundaries and turn that scrutiny into fixes.
