I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.

When we first shared Inspect, @tryramp's in-house coding agent, it wrote 30% of all merged PRs. Today, it's ~70% of all merged PRs, and goes far beyond just our engineers.

We shared some successes with the Ramp team today in our all-hands, that I wanted to share here as well.

I'm obsessed with the design of this set, it's so cool, Dune-chic

[Spencer Alger @spalger]

Honestly, was the most impressive week one I've ever seen, and Inspect being able to debug itself with dd has been an absolute game changer

[Dylan Garcia @_dylanga]

The first thing I did at @tryramp was set up distributed tracing, structured logging, and metrics for Inspect, our background coding agent.

We now have full visibility in to everything the system is doing: the browser, CF workers/DOs, @modal sandboxes, database calls, etc.

Most importantly, Inspect now has visibility in to itself. It can self-triage runtime errors it encounters and create PRs to fix them.

Every morning, it reviews the past 24 hours of its own @datadoghq dashboard, identifies systemic issues, new errors, and long tail latencies, and has a summary + PR waiting for me at 9am.

CLAUDE CODE but for HACKING

its called shannon, you point it at website and it just... tries to break in... fully autonomous with no human needed

i pointed it at a test app and it stole the entire user database, created admin accounts, and bypassed login, all by itself, in 90 minutes

[Zach Bruggeman @zachbruggeman]

The craft of engineering is rapidly changing. At @tryramp, we built our own background coding agent to accelerate faster.

We call it Inspect. It wrote 30% of merged frontend + backend PRs in the past week.

It’s powered by @opencode, @modal and @CloudflareDev. It runs fully in the cloud, and starts in seconds, letting every builder work at the speed of thought, no setup required.

Today, we’re open sourcing the full blueprint so anybody can build their own Inspect. Just give our spec to your current coding agent, and let it build your new favourite.

@arcinternet your "Contact the Team" sierra chat thing is broken so I'm unable to report a bug to whoever is still maintaining the best browser on the market 😢

@taran @SuhailKakar Took me like 4 tries to figure out how to get the page to scroll when the page was full screen on my Mac, using a trackpad. Something about the animation confused me and I slowed down my scroll before lifting my fingers, causing the page to just snap back down. I needed momentum.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

I prosecuted sex predators. Trump is one.
I shut down for-profit scam colleges. He ran one.
I held big banks accountable. He's owned by them.

I'm not just prepared to take on Trump, I'm prepared to beat him.

It's quite an amazing feat of social engineering to convince so many people that the burden of car ownership is synonymous with freedom.
