The Railway dashboard is currently unavailable, and all running Railway services are down. We're working with our upstream provider to restore service. Updates: status.railway.com

Grok Build from xAI comes with /imagine and /imagine-video commands out of the box to generate images and videos directly from CLI. First CLI tool that comes with native video and image generation. Result 👇

Composer 2.5 is now the most-chosen model in Cursor. We're giving everyone 10x usage for the rest of the day. Enjoy!

Phew, Grok Build is really thorough, pretty incredible. Relay feature for PasteLocal is done, pushing to Github now. And if you want to know what this adds, here's a bit more about it, this is a feature I really wanted in there, and honestly didn't really expect to have done this week. • Per-peer E2E encryption: clipboard data is encrypted individually for each paired device using X25519 + HKDF + AES-GCM (no plaintext ever leaves the client) • Durable persistence: relay state is now stored in an atomic state.json with proper TTL handling and compaction. Pending clips survive relay-server restarts • Safe compaction: fixed unsafe map mutation during expiration/compaction that could cause data loss or undefined behavior • Full bidirectional CLI: new commands: pastelocal relay send, inbox, fetch, and status, plus pastelocal-remote --relay --peer --send • Auto-sync: when watch.enabled + relay.auto_upload are on, meaningful clipboard changes are automatically pushed to paired devices • Improved DX: doctor checks are now only shown when relay is enabled, and the TUI shows basic relay status • Multiple review cycles: went through full implement → review → fix → re-review (effort 4), plus a final targeted regression fix round Try it out and please send any and all feedback!

Just started testing the @grok Build beta. First feel: UX is nice, still some rough edges, but model speed is genuinely cool. If task quality on hard stuff matches opus 4.7 (or even slightly below) at this speed, it's a game-changer. Good chance they steamroll the competition.

We just crossed $10M in ARR at @Chatbase! 🎉 🎉 And today, we're launching Chatbase as the full harness for customer-facing AI agents. Similar to how Claude code is a harness for coding agents, Chatbase is the harness for customer experience agents. That means we give the model the context, tools, workflows, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop systems to be the best ambassador for your brand. It's going beyond just solving issues and is giving your customers the best experiences across every channel. This is a milestone I have been thinking about and obsessed with since day 1, and I am super excited to bring my vision for customer facing agents to life with Chatbase. Thank you to every one of our customers and to the amazing Chatbase team for getting us here! Next stop: $100M ARR

An early beta of Grok Build, an agentic CLI for coding, building apps, and automating workflows is now available for SuperGrok Heavy subscribers. Through this early beta, we will improve the model and product based on your feedback. Try it at x.ai/cli











Yesterday Fitbit Air launched, but did you know it comes with a new @googlehealth API? You can build AI agents, MCP servers, or CLIs on top of your sleep and heat data. - 31 different data points from exercise to sleep, heart rate, or SpO2. - Webhooks push real-time notifications when health data changes. - Support Read or write data, request only the permissions you need. - Query by time range, roll up daily summaries, or paginate results. I am whoop guy, but might be good reason to explore this. Full getting started codelab below.👇🏻
