Remember the movie Ratatouille? 🐀

Hear me out lol: Just like Remy helped Linguini plan out each dish, LLMs help AI agents plan their next steps.

You’ve seen agents built into editors, but what about agents that work natively with any editor?

ACP makes this possible.

Join @blackgirlbytes.bsky.social as she connects goose to Zed and reveals her strategies for using AI to build real tools.

goose makes it easy to build apps fast, so we raised the stakes.

We challenged six developers to build one in four hours with a single rule: their apps couldn’t rely on a keyboard or mouse.

Now streaming for everyone: 3 teams of devs had 4 hours to build apps that use something other than a keyboard or mouse for input. @leonnoel.bsky.social, @ericaxtech.bsky.social, @kentcdodds.com, @joelhooks.com, Billy, & @zig.computer took the challenge

Why babysit every prompt when Goose can handle the queue?

Skip the messy one shot prompts. Queue digestible steps and let Goose run them in order. You can even reorder the prompts mid flow!

That means clearer results for Goose and more time for you to grab a coffee ☕️

Bluesky loves links — we don’t downrank or deprioritize posts with links in them, and as a result they get higher traffic, so lots of people post them.

I love the Startup Boston event! I'm excited to be speaking. I spoke:
- in 2018, when I was learning to code
- in 2024, when I was pregnant
- and now I'm coming back with a new perspective in 2025 as a tech lead focused on an open source AI agent

I'm speaking at Commit Your Code Conference! We'll chat about MCP and cutting edge UI.

When geese go head-to-head with AI, only champions emerge.
Camila and Simon code in their day jobs, but prompting is a different skill. Join Camila and Simon as they put their AI orchestrator hats on. Who will guide Goose to the greatest build?
