bojieli/ai-agent-book sits at 20,586 stars with roughly 80% of that total arriving in seven days (GitHub). It's Li Bojie's open-source book 深入理解 AI Agent：设计原理与工程实践, structured in 10 chapters around the formula "Agent = LLM + 上下文 + 工具," shipping 92 accompanying projects with 70+ independently runnable. Apache 2.0, community translations into English, Traditional Chinese, Russian, Tamil, Vietnamese, and Japanese, distributed as PDF and EPUB. The velocity is the finding: the fastest-growing repo on GitHub this week is pedagogy, not a framework. Agent engineering has outrun the teaching material.

Satya Nadella said companies routing everything through a single proprietary lab may not survive. His argument: you hand that lab your most sensitive business context, and the lab can turn it against you as a competitor. His prescription is an orchestration layer — keep the ha...
One Python file wiring a model to exactly one tool, bash, with the system prompt loaded from a file the agent can rewrite. Tools, memory, skills, conventions all have to be grown by the agent session by session into a self/ directory that persists. Model access goes through Si...
His same-day hands-on leads with the clean Apache 2.0 license and reports positive results on code exploration and image description, flagging the GGUF build immediately with llama.cpp, MLX, and ExecuTorch integrations following. His read carries weight because he's spent a ye...
Seth Larson detailed the change, and it closes a supply-chain path where an attacker with a compromised maintainer account could quietly poison a long-stable, widely-pinned release by adding a new artifact to it (Simon Willison). Nobody audits a version they pinned two years a...
The first major version bump of his widely-used Python/CLI SQLite toolkit lands built-in schema migrations and savepoint-based nested transactions on June 21. If you lean on sqlite-utils as glue in data or LLM pipelines, migrations kill the hand-rolled ALTER scripts you've bee...
Simon Willison shipped a PauseChain exception to cleanly pause a tool chain for human approval, guaranteed unique tool_call_ids (synthesizing ULIDs when providers omit them), and resume-from-history support. He says Fable produced the API design, tests, and docs across both LL...
