Passionate developer and crazy windsurfer … or the opposite. Working at GitHub during the day, coding windr.org at night (early morning to be precise)

Maybe, you can keep this task for you or another part of the team —for now— and use it where it helps you the best.

These are new tools we have to learn how to use it the best. Like any big change… (as you can guess I believe it is one :) )

Are you not doing this when reviewing PR already ?

And you iterate in the review and improve your asks too

Still shocked talking to devs/tech folks who see GenAI as just “autocomplete + chat on steroids”

No! Once you’ve clearly defined the work—requirements , architecture, quality, validation criteria—the “AI team” does the job for you.
You’re the PM, it’s the dev squad.

Server Instructions: Giving LLMs a user manual for your server Many of us are still exploring the nooks and crannies of MCP and learning how to best use the building blocks of the protocol to enhance agents and applications. Some features, like Prompts, are frequ...

MCP server instructions just clarified so much for me—perfect for guiding LLMs on tool workflows (like GitHub PR reviews).

This will help you too!

Thanks to Ola Hungerford!

DevFest Nantes 2025: Stop Coding Like It's 2022—The Agentic Era is Here I was at DevFest Nantes 2025, another great edition! Thank you to all the organizers, volunteers, sponsors, speakers and attendees for making it happen. I had many great discussions about GitHub, DevS...

From the discussions at #DevFest #Nantes 2025:
it’s time to stop coding like it’s 2022.

We’ve entered the Agentic Era — where AI understands context, follows specs, and builds with us.

Code less, think more.

I'm developing faster than ever, even if I spend less time in my IDE.

Thanks to #GitHub #Copilot and its agents, I now spend more time on what truly matters: defining architecture & specs in md.

This approach is completely reshaping how I work.

How has AI transformed your developer workflow?
