Been building a @rescript-lang.org MCP server lately, letting an LLM truly see a codebase.
If you haven’t met ReScript before, this one’s still worth watching . It has a clear case of how localized MCP servers can lift developer tooling.

Today, we’re announcing the preview release of ty, an extremely fast type checker and language server for Python, written in Rust.

In early testing, it's 10x, 50x, even 100x faster than existing type checkers. (We've seen >600x speed-ups over Mypy in some real-world projects.)
Never use your default branch to send PRs in GitHub!
Maintainers can't push to that branch, even though if you enabled "Maintainers are allowed to edit this pull request."
The editor tooling in #ReScript has immense potential. I'm very happy to be among the core contributors and learn from the best!
Even with a little code tour.
Working on preserving JSX in #ReScript output at the @rescript-lang.org retreat!

Upcoming ReScript (@rescript-lang.org) v12 move platform binaries into optional dependencies (e.g. rescript/linux-x64)

To shrink the download & install size significantly!

Download & Install size change:
- Before: 67 MB | 197 MB
- After: 15 MB | 48 MB (on a Linux x64 machine)
Does anyone know if #cursor follows links when indexing a remote llm.txt file?

Discovery of the day: devtools logpoints. Instead of adding console.log directly in the code, you can add a logpoint in devtools (at least in Chrome). The brilliant @jec.fish has a video about this: youtu.be/JyHjoaUhAus. No more forgotten log lines! 🙌🏻
