Today we're launching ai-policy.dev! A collaboration of me, @danielroe.dev and @matteogabriele.npmx.social - this provides a few human curated AI contribution policies you can choose from. Our hope is that this will help you better define your stance and what kind of contributions you accept 🙏

Looks like pnpm 12 has poorer compression on pack/publish. For github.com/bluwy/create... (with many duplicated files) the tarball size with pnpm 12 is 823KB, before it's only 89KB.

Wrote a userscript that adds "AI" labels to users detected by agentscan.tools (by @matteogabriele.npmx.social)! Much needed hints to judge "contributions" these days. 👉 github.com/bluwy/github...

3 screenshots: one adds the "AI" label to detected authors on the GitHub PR list, one adds the "AI" label to a detected author of a PR, and one adds a "Report to AgentScan" menu item for PR comments

i've written up some thoughts about AI in the open source world, and more importantly, why humanity is important. its a bit wordy and doomy but this is an important topic right now. there is still a lot of good in the OSS world at least ❤️

npm still recommends a trusted publishing workflow that allows any jobs and steps to publish, instead of limiting to just one step or publish flow (which is easily possible with tokens before). amazing.

I re-watched last year Joyee's @webengineshackfest.org talk. I can't recommend it enough. There are many lessons on the require(esm) story. If you want adoption, meet developers where they are, build bridges for them to move to the future you want.

Today, VoidZero joins Cloudflare. Vite remains MIT, vendor-neutral, and stewarded by the same wider team. The same goes for Vitest, Rolldown, and Oxc. Cloudflare is also committing $1M to an OSS fund to support independent development in the Vite ecosystem.

You now do not need the Changesets bot for automatic PR comments. Use GitHub Actions instead! With two new sub-actions: - `changesets/action/pr-status` - `changesets/action/pr-comment` Set up a workflow like below to automate it yourself. Or check out the action docs: github.com/changesets/a...

FYI if you use pnpm and upgraded from Vite 7 -> 8, you might still have esbuild installed but unused. You can purge it out by: 1. Set `autoInstallPeers: false` in `pnpm-workspace.yaml` 2. `pnpm i` 3. Undo no1 4. `pnpm i`
