[Carlton Aikins @31Carlton7]

just wrapped up my first week at @vercel and @aisdk

initial thoughts:

- pace is insane. onboarding was only two days then they get us working in prod codebase immediately after

- you don’t wait for permission, people pull you in, unblock you, and expect movement

- working/building in public is part of the culture

learned so much in a short span, and took on great skills and techniques that i’ve already implemented in my projects (like @stora_sh)

looking forward to a great summer with this team!!

[Tom Lienard @tomlienard]

Vercel AI Gateway now supports a team-wide provider allowlist.

Once on, developers and agents can only route to allowlisted providers. Like team-wide ZDR and no prompt training, it's enforced at the gateway level on every request.

Shoutout to @vercel AI Gateway

The AI Gateway plugin for WordPress is here.

Install it and any plugin using the WordPress AI Client can call text, image, and video models with one API key.

i created a llama.cpp provider for vercel ai sdk that runs directly in the Node process (no separate server required, it uses llama.cpp bindings)
the llama.cpp provider supports reasoning, tool calling, image inputs, prompt caching (for a single conversation)

[Vercel Developers @vercel_dev]

Vercel CLI now supports native curl commands.

Same syntax as 𝚌𝚞𝚛𝚕, but uses Vercel auth to test all of your deployments. https://t.co/QhCxMZjKQ2

[Cline @cline]

Introducing the Cline SDK. We rebuilt the Cline harness for our extension and CLI from scratch using all the lessons learned since creating one of the world's first coding agents in 2024, and are open sourcing it for others to build with today.

npm i @​cline/sdk

[Chris Tate @ctatedev]

The fastest way to try the new Recraft 4.1 that just dropped

[Guillermo Rauch @rauchg]

You can just render images on the terminal btw:

Run 𝚗𝚙𝚖 𝚒 -𝚐 𝚊𝚒-𝚌𝚕𝚒 and access every image, video & text model from @vercel AI Gateway instantly
