Software, film, and everything in between.

Step 1 in enabling infinite traits:

Traits are now indexed into a local SQLite database.

~100× faster listings, ~4× faster lookups.

Up next: embeddings-based dynamic trait activation.

Hey, it is Wednesday

OpenCode hacked
eMudra had picked a private key value of 4, thus everything is now deemed unsafe.
PHP, running 70% of the internet, has an insane hack...

Happy getting internet getting humped day

If you're in Miami, make sure to join us at the Effect meetup!

[Harry Solovay @harrysolovay]

I'm excited to speak at Effect Miami alongside two truly extraordinary engineers: @jdegoes and @devinjameson

This'll be an incredibly fun event... if you're in Miami, come!

Also, a shoutout to @ariazou for organizing.

How I imagine the interaction between Jev and Opus while using traits 😆

[Sam Simonds @SamSimonds8]

@Revenode Still building out our traits library... wouldn't be fun with no room for improvement :)

[Sam Simonds @SamSimonds8]

Before getting traits checked, Opus 5.5 built with native JS (.map, .filter().length, Math.max(...spread), .padEnd)

With Traits, it realized this is an Effect app and actually used Effect utilities. Still work to do, but the journey toward desloppification is underway 🤏

Decision-model-validated lessons your agent infers from your feedback.

[Sam Simonds @SamSimonds8]

@MazuzAsaf Incredible! Thanks for the visibility :)

[Sam Simonds @SamSimonds8]

Possibilities with decision models like Jev feel endless.

We're using it to build an open-source developer tool, Traits, that desloppifies AI codegen. Crazy future incoming https://t.co/2n3Dsi3FTh

[OpenCode @opencode]

We had a security breach last night related to a large scale distillation attack that impacted 1.4% of OpenCode Console users

We have notified them all this morning via email. If you did not get an email you were not impacted, it was a subset of users who had external providers linked

The incident is ongoing so we cannot share more details at this point but we are working with Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google to remediate

[Sam Simonds @SamSimonds8]

Decision models change the game

[Harry Solovay @harrysolovay]

Decision models could damage Anthropic's business.

You don't need Opus 5.5 when you can instantaneously run hundreds of natural language assertions on agent output...

... at a fraction of the cost.

This approach is being streamlined via Traits.

The post-slop era starts here.

[Harry Solovay @harrysolovay]

... you can't teach every such lesson upfront.

You work with your agent. You correct it.

Traits saves the underlying lesson, applies it to future code, and sends violations back to the agent to fix.

Teach your agent to code the way you do.

@phoxpup @dimforest @whozzat7 @Walcandy1 @elonmusk But you said no one has the right to impose beliefs on others. What does it matter to you if your neighbors are lesbians? If they are the minority where you live, then you are imposing the same tyranny of majority on them which you’re complaining about on a nat’l level.
