a token generator with the Claude logo, implying that this is the LLM taking input and generating code, token by token
Claude tokens == NLP tokens
these are the smallest units of text that LLMs use to process input/generate output (1 token = 1 word, 1 subword, or 1 letter, depending on your model)
Docker Hub page for node Docker image
Quay container registry repository settings page
there isnβt exactly a wrong choice for a container registry, but how to eval which is right for you?
- use the CR bundled with your cloud/git ecosystem
- OSS vs. proprietary: both $$ in different ways
- artifact support (OCI, helm, AI model)
- vuln scanning/IAM
engineering teams are improving their #ClaudeCode workflows every day. but CC can test its own work autonomously
a feature might take ~10 tweaks to get right, most obvious after running simple smoke/UI tests
give agents access to real infra so that they can self-verify + iterate
βSoftware reliability is down across the industry; failure rate is up: and batch size is up.β @lauratacho.com + @nathenharvey.bsky.social
Basically, AI is generating larger changes (batch size) and we know from research (eg DORA) that larger batch size tends to result in exactly this!
a cover image showing multiple claude code agents linked together in an orchestration pattern
some tasks are too complex for @claudeai subagents. that's where #multiagent orchestrators come in, allowing a lead coding agent to delegate tasks and spawn agents as needed
in this post, we take a quick look at Gas Town and Multiclaude β¬οΈ

#claudecode has always stood out for its filesystem + ops capabilities. in fact, CC is a CLI-based agent for anything, not just coding
they built a solid UI on top of Claude Codeβs foundation to make a tool for file-related work, called Claude Cowork
Yes, we need code reviews.
In addition to reviewing intent, code reviews are an opportunity to review the how and ask questions: should we bring in these 3rd party dependencies, are we duplicating existing functionality, did we check in credentials by mistake, etc.
Most of this can be automated.

engineering teams spend so much time during the year talking about dev productivity.
dec is a difficult time to keep those metrics up anyway. why not use the holiday stretch to catch up on your skills + learn new things?
here are six MCP servers that help our team code more efficiently β¬οΈ

AI #agents alone are pretty capable, but #MCP servers extend what they can accomplish
as a dev, youβll want to connect your tools to your agent via MCP to handle more types of tasks
I sat down with @lauratacho.com to discuss DORA's last research into the impact of AI on software development and more!

ping us if you wanna talk ephemeral envs :)
happy cloudflare outage day to all who celebrate
OH at 1:37 am: βok i have to go i have to start my #KubeCon slidesβ
are you ready to introduce a coding #agent into your dev loop?
at Shipyard, we're big fans of #claudecode. we wrote a guide with our best pro tips, so you can get high-quality code from your agent right away π€

AI as an amplifier: DORA and GitLab on maximizing AI impact.
Tue, Nov 18, join @nathenharvey.bsky.social , Emilio Salvador, and Jessie Young for new research from @gitlab.com and the latest findings from @dora.dev

weβve got some HUGE news:
the Shipyard #MCP server is now in open beta!
use it for:
β
writing + improving #E2E tests
β
sandboxing #agent workflows
β
live, in-depth code reviews
weβre looking for user feedback, so reach out with any questions/comments π
benjie at #DPESummit on moving faster by using #agents smartly:
- write agent config files
- learn your AI devtools + their capabilities
- outline their reqs, conventions, + other rules

SF folks:
we're partnering with our friends at @heavybit.com for this awesome #GitHubUniverse social hour/unconference. great way to network + reflect on today's learnings from one of our fav SF tech events π
still time to RSVP for this evening!
