So @bomb.sh clack accepted a PR hereโ€”the fix was legit, the PR included respectful back-and-forth, with only one red flag in retrospect.

Automated reputation farming like this has an extremely high abuse potential with very low chance of detection.

Maintainers are not equipped! See for yourself.

Sarah and Yan are both absolutely incredible people to have in your team and are a massive part of Astro's success.

If you're looking to make your docs better, you'd be missing the opportunity of your life by not hiring them!

There are some great people, @yanthomas.dev included, looking for their next adventure!

Oh hey, and me included, too! I'm not in a rush, but keeping my eye out for the right opportunity in docs or community leadership. If you've liked using or contributing to Astro, maybe part of that came from me!

If you want to support Astro, one of the best ways is to hire the people behind it.

There are amazing people on the core team looking for work right nowโ€”like me!

You get a talented engineer on your team, and give them the sustainability to keep improving Astro for everyone.

A screenshot from an Astro blog post with the following text:

What this means for Astro:
- Astro stays open-source and MIT-licensed
- Astro continues to be actively maintained
- Astro continues to support a wide set of deployment targets, not just Cloudflare
- Astroโ€™s open governance and current roadmap remain in place.
- All full-time employees of The Astro Technology Company are now employees of Cloudflare, and will continue to work on Astro full-time.

The Astro Technology Company (now Cloudflare) provides important resources to the project, but Astro's open governance model remains in place (Both Nuxt and Svelte are in similar situations)

Security Advisory: CVE-2025-66478 A critical vulnerability (CVE-2025-66478) has been identified in the React Server Components protocol. Users should upgrade to patched versions immediately.

Some people have asked so I want to clarify, @astro.build is not affected by the recent React vulnerability CVE-2025-66478. Astro apps using React do not use React Server Components.

npm Author Qix Compromised via Phishing Email in Major Suppl... npm author Qixโ€™s account was compromised, with malicious versions of popular packages like chalk-template, color-convert, and strip-ansi published.

A number of popular npm packages have been compromised and malicious versions published. Most of these have been removed from the registry. Astro indirectly depends on one that hasn't, so we have published 5.13.6 that pins a safe version.
