Starting AI agents is easy. Keeping track of them is the hard part. Kepler runs every agent in one place, from idea to merged, every session visible live. Bring your own agents and models. Free in public preview. gitkraken.com/blog/big-kep... #AIagents #DevTools #Kepler

@eric.amod.io, creator of GitLens: "You can do everything from that graph, from that one place." Commits, reviews, conflict resolution, and now, with GitLens 19, your stacked PRs too. www.gitkraken.com/blog/gitlens... #GitLens #CodeReview

Running 3 AI agents across 5 repos usually means 12 open terminals and zero idea what's actually happening. Kepler tracks it all in one place. We walk through starting tasks from scratch, from an issue, or from a PR, plus Kanban, list, and console views. youtu.be/KWggzuJiqTA #AgenticDev #Kepler

Which LLM is actually best at git tasks? We built a benchmark to find out. GitBench: 17 categories, 204 test cases, 43+ models tested. Some surprises: frontier models don't always win, and cost doesn't always track with quality. Results → gitbench.gitkraken.com

Have you updated to GitLens 18.3 yet? This release makes AI workflows more capable, conflict resolution smarter, and the Commit Graph even more powerful, plus a completely redesigned Settings experience. Here’s what’s new 🧵👇

Anyone else noticed the Canvas in the Gemini webapp barely works anymore? I can't seem to get the models (3.5 Flash or 3.1 Pro) to use the canvas at all (though they SAY they did) or they do actually use it, but it's only a code file without any preview mode. Been happening for a week or more now.

The layer between plan and main has no owner. That is the gap. And it's now the most expensive problem in software development. We know what breaks. We built the fix. The Code Flow Company, from plan to main. More from our CEO: www.gitkraken.com/blog/gitkrak... #TheCodeFlowCompany

now that's a fucking Space X IPO headline

GitLens 18.1 is now available, with performance improvements, Commit Graph refinements, and quality-of-life updates to make your daily Git workflows smoother. Grab the update and see what’s new: help.gitkraken.com/gitlens/gitl...

This is a massive release and I am so excited about it. We are also just getting started.

"Democratic governors and state legislators need to realize that this is no longer about fairness; it’s about fighting back so that they are not engineered out of the House forever. And I get that Dems don’t have the stomach for this kind of warfare--- find it."

Angus: This is a president who says the only constraint on his actions is not Congress, not the courts, not international law, but, quote, “my own morality, my own mind.” There is no morality in a man accused of being a rapist…

Me too! Was such an awesome show.

How do you lead 1,000 open source contributors without burnout? @danielroe.dev ( @nuxt.com lead ) shares his playbook: LLM-powered triage, open office hours, and governance with actual checks and balances. New Software is a Team Sport episode 👇 youtu.be/KzRL-b6dXAI

GitLens hit a milestone that shows what happens when you solve real problems for developers. We started with a simple idea: make Git history visual, intuitive, and actually useful inside VS Code. Eight years later, developers have spoken. Thanks for trusting us with your Git workflow. 🙌

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

@pnpm.io Is there any way to use `minimumReleaseAge` but have it exclude direct dependencies (if they are targeting a specific version)? I often want to pick a specific dependency in my `package.json`, but still have `minimumReleaseAgeExclude` still enforced for all the indirect deps.

The public preview of Github Copilot CLI launched today, and if you install it, you'll be welcomed by little ASCII art welcome banner that I animated. Creating it ended up being great example of how vibe-coding has entered my toolbelt. Nerdy deets in 🧵...

This is a really, really good article. I highly recommend it

I've had this headline rattling around in my brain since January and I finally wrote it. Been hearing too many people in the startup world buying into the neoractionary nonsense that maybe a little light fascism is good for silicon valley. It's not. It's very, very bad.

I started a little pet project recently, a VS Code extension that discovers Custom Elements Manifests in your workspace and starts a local MCP server that AI assistants can connect to. Features are still very early & rough. Love to hear your feedback! marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa...

Want your AI tools to actually act like teammates? The new GitKraken MCP server lets you connect agents like Copilot, Cursor & Windsurf to your CLI so they can: ✅ Clean branches ✅ Write PRs ✅ Surface insights instantly 👉 Try it now: www.gitkraken.com/blog/introdu... #GitKraken #AIforDevs

Risky post! (This is great, fun to read and the frustrated tone throughout really does capture how it feels sometimes to be an experienced programmer trying to argue that "LLMs are actually really useful" in many corners of the internet)

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Today, we're announcing plans to make VS Code an open source AI editor. We believe AI development should stay true to VS Code's core principles: open, collaborative, and community-driven. Let's build the future of software development together. aka.ms/open-source-...

I wrote about the White House X account — which is steeped in the sociopathic posting style of far-right extremists — and seems to get more sinister and cruel with its posts each week of the administration. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again. This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.

Cool cool. @durbin.senate.gov, @amyklobuchar.com @klobuchar.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov are looking to team up with MAGA to give Donald Trump the power to censor anything he wants on the Internet. Do they not recognize what will happen?
