Like all the rest of #AshFramework / AshAi, these actions can be used interchangeably with a wide array of features. For example, you could provide jev-backed actions as tools to an LLM-backed action. Happy hacking 😎

Building on top of ReqLLM's support (Thanks @mikehostetler.bsky.social ), AshAI now also supports @typesafeai.bsky.social new Jev model 🎉.

It's interesting but easy to accomplish with Elixir. My agent very often evals against a live running app already, and tools like tidewave offer great support for this 😁

nothing that operates proactively, but I do have an agent w/ access to various systems to inquire and schedule runs etc.

Really enjoyed seeing all of my #ElixirLang fam at #ElixirConf this year, and looking forward to seeing many of you at #Goatmire where I will be giving a very different talk whereby I provide a real time travel device instead of the gimmick from last time 😉 youtu.be/7smgEJkgqO8?...

A very different talk than you're used to hearing from me, but I'm spending a lot of my time these days figuring out how to capitalize on LLMs in a way that leads to positive outcomes, so it was exciting to share some of what I've been doing lately 😎

I retired bobs-list.kobrakai.de today. Hex Bob has its own dashboard now at bob.hex.pm and elixir builds are even done by elixirs own CI anyways. The times of an elixir release without asdf/mise resources ready have been gone for a while. Erlang and docker builds however are still done by bob.

- In your LV, more logic could be moved into resource actions, like building the game board etc.

Zach Daniel @zachdaniel.dev · 02/09/2026
It is decent! Very light review, got a few notes: - `new_game` action could be a create action. You can use a `change` to massage the input and Ash will instantiate the struct result for you - in `search`, you could define the argument as `:ci_string` to get case insensitive searching automatically

I'm pleased to announce that @barnabasj.bsky.social , one of Ash's longest standing core team members, will be speaking at #AshConf about something very cool and ambitious 😎 I can't wait to hear about these projects. I've only got an inkling and what I've seen so far as *very* cool!

It’s always a fun day when your boards arrive 😄 #Goatmire #ElixirLang
A photo of the Goatmire 2026 logo circuit board. The logo is white against a classic electronics green background. There are some interesting traces and copper features visible, but nothing distinct. Could this be… an early peek? At the Goatmire 2026 name badge? A delightful addition to the goodie bag of the best Elixir conference / week long festival ever to grace the western shores of Sweden, in the cute costal town of Varberg?

No, that couldn’t be it. Unless…?

You'll get to hear from Remedy's Director of Platform Engineering this year at AshConf! At our scale and complexity, we have to be extremely disciplined about knowing exactly how, when, and where things are going wrong, otherwise...💸💸💸.

IIRC this is due to your elixir version unfortunately. Try upgrading to the latest elixir and run it again 🙇

FWIW this should be heartening. This stuff is easy and you don't need some mega framework.

Like its literally just a few typescript files.

Zach Daniel @zachdaniel.dev · 16/07/2026
Nah it's way simpler. There is a bit of Elixir for webhook handling. The rest is just a GitHub action that runs the claude code typescript SDK. Simple as dirt.
