CoastWeb.dev

Finally got my #EmDashCMS plugin for using Cloudflare's new Email Service for sending in EMDash pushed up to npm www.npmjs.com/package/@coa... Can't publish to the emdash marketplace yet, but it's available on npm now!

Made an @emdashcms.com plugin to add Cloudflare's new email sending service (public beta) as an email provider today. It only works for emdash sites deployed to CF workers bc of bindings, but still was feeling proud of myself. Only to realize I'm locked out of npm, and can't publish 😓#BuildInPublic

Been playing with EMDash a lot, but not having much luck with their atproto plugin yet :(

Exciting weekend project time... going to try migrating CoastWeb's Astro blog posts to our new EmDashCMS blog (and 🤞hopefully make some standard.site records in the process)

Been building private AI knowledge assistants that sit on top of your own docs/wiki and answer questions without exposing content to the models. Looking for 1-2 teams who feel crushed by documentation or support q's and want a done‑for‑you pilot (1–2 wks, on your infra). DM or reply here for deets

Dropping a little Xmas gift to the ATproto developer community... I've wrapped the ATprotoDocs MCP server in a chat interface, so you can just query the documentation directly without needing to know how to install an MCP server. Play with it at: atproto-docs.coastweb.dev

Shifting focus to other projects 🚀

Dropping today, #5 in my MCP for Curious Dev series!

Working on this week's MCP post, and realizing that I've almost exhausted my list of original ideas for this series. What MCP questions do y'all have that I could be trying to answer?

Dropping a day early this week, happy long weekend! Proudly presenting #2 in my series "MCP for Curious Devs"...in today's installment, why a Remote MCP server is a better solution, than using in prompt URL search when querying documentation sources

Working on getting post #2 in my #MCP series ready to drop at the end of this week! This time I'm digging into how #RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) works. You're already doing RAG anytime you ask your chat agent to search a URL or retrieve some content and then use it to augment its response.

Post #1 in my #MCP series for curious devs drops today with "What devs should know about MCP". Subscribe to get mcp updates in your inbox every other Friday! coastweb.leaflet.pub/3ls2mopzrpc2i

Now that there are multiple ways for people to subscribe, it’s time to launch that series of posts about #MCP that I wanted to write! Holding myself to an editorial schedule of dropping a post every other Friday, starting this Friday with “What devs should know about MCP?”

You can now subscribe to our newsletter!!! Go to subs.blue to sign up to receive our developer updates. CoastWeb wanted a way for followers to opt-in to receiving emails on the protocol, so we built it! Now ours is the very first email subscription channel available on ATproto!

Soooo... I wanted to write about MCP... but I wanted to do it on #atproto .... AND I also wanted to make it like a substack that someone can subscribe with their email and it goes on my list. Sounded like a good excuse to make a lexicon and voila subs.blue is now taking all of my attention instead

testing posting some new records to this pds, might delete later

🏆 Today my #atproto docs #mcp server got a pretty awesome shoutout at #POSTCON for winning their "What are you building with MCP" challenge on discord. Thanks Postman!

As everyone gets excited and freaks out about #MCP, myself included, I have a lot of info I feel like sharing… Over the next couple of weeks I plan to drop a series of blog posts on my @coastweb.dev called "What devs should know about MCP"... follow me there for all things MCP!

made a new reddit account so that i could get all up in the #mcp subreddits, and then i had a good laugh at the #atproto misinformation, and _lack_ of subreddits. <3 being here instead
