Benchmark report is in the repo. This is 100% promptcoding but hey the evals look okay, speeds are pretty good on local machine (m5 max 64gb), and the LocalJev server exposes an API that can be used with the normal Jev API wrapper libraries.

github.com/githubnext/l... Not everyone on the team has access to Jev yet. Spent a morning cobbling together a poor man's Jev on top of omlx for local use. Benchmarked and eval'ed a variety of models including diffusiongemma and a variety of autoregressive models (qwen, gemma4 26b, e4b, e2b.)

I am wondering if in the future it will be: - my agent and your agent sharing a task (agents end up being everyone's very personalized avatar in the creative space) - we are communicating within earshot of multiple agents who do work (they are not intrinsically linked to either of us)

Got to talk at @aidotengineer.bsky.social conf last week about the need for collaborative AI engineering. All our current coding agents are single player. We're trying to scale up individual productivity, but creating tons of alignment problems in the process. We have no good tools for...

Much like @steve-yegge.bsky.social's 8 levels of AI adoption, the superusers of Agentic Workflows are not just doing the same work as before, they're moving the conventions around what is automatable. It's wild to see this firsthand inside our team. ❤️

Coda: You can get value out of this in five minutes, but getting maximum value requires a behavioral shift, and folks at Next are buzzing about this. This tool can do many things. It's easy to use, but harder to realize/internalize that you can apply it to problems you wouldn't have before.

And we're particularly excited about using this to help open-source maintainers. When we showed this to @frenck.social, the maintainer of Home Assistant, he wrote a workflow that reads the traces for bugs and figures out if they originate in the HA codebase or not. True noise elimination for OSS.

We're seeing teams at GitHub use it for building tooling and workflows for themselves. We're seeing developer-adjacent personas at GitHub using agentic workflows to help them move information around. Software is a team sport and this helps everyone on the team, not just the engineers.

You can check out a zillion examples in our docs site: gh.io/aw-tp-bsky It can be for easy things like "triage my issues" and it can be for hard things like "find ways to optimize my code". If it's a task you'd express in English to an engineer, it might be a good agentic workflow!

Core to the behavior of Agentic Workflows is the notion of safe outputs. The body of a workflow is markdown, but the frontmatter is where you explicitly define what the agent can read and write, and those are enforced outside of the agentic run.

Heuristics can only take you so far in automation. There's no linter in existence that can tell you if your code and documentation have drifted out of sync. Agentic Workflows make it stupidly simple to express a task you want to delegate, forever — and have it do that for you, forever.

It's funny — we've talked about exactly that! Disposable interfaces that are hyper-specific to a task, and then thrown away. Don't love the wasteful vibe, so maybe "Instant Software" instead? Something you create quickly, not something you craft. And you don't feel bad using it once.
