I am using @bazelbuild to download a Zig nightly build To then build the same Zig version from source (we have patches) Using a custom LLVM source repo Which is also built from source And all of this using remote execution with @buildbuddy.

@norootcause CI is also a bottleneck

Coding was the bottleneck, then code reviews were the bottleneck. At some point, incidents are going to be the bottleneck.

This is so underrated, being able to efficiently have have LLMs part of the build system unblocks a lot of marvels.

Remote caching means you never have to run the same prompt twice (unless an input changes). This saves you tokens and allows you to build complex pipelines of Claude prompts that only get rerun when needed.

@siggi @buildbuddy Exactly ! I show everyone I can how I’m pretty much alone doing codex cloud at this scale just because I don’t care containers are only 2 cores. While every other agents wait minutes doing things locally, mine loop at light speed while everything compiles and test w/ @buildbuddy

After LLVM, Clang, libc++, we now bootstrap Zig from source, too. This is a screenshot of a remote build of the Zig compiler for macOS, built on Linux remote runners.

Current status and coming soon: Compiling flash-attention kernels with @bazelbuild and #llvm for all Nvidia Compute Capabilities, 1 action per sm_xx per kernel, fully parallel, hermetic and remote, in 5 minutes. 🫶 @buildbuddy for providing the cores <3

@fmzakari @steeve @corentinanjuna @buildbuddy Not yet, but this is a good idea that we’ve been kicking around for a while (maintaining a “golden” cache for frequently used public OSS repos).

Farid Zakaria@fmzakari·15 Şub

@steeve @corentinanjuna @buildbuddy Does buildbuddy host a public cache for it ? I wonder if we can use it for the BUCK files we have also. 🥲

My friends who are actually working *on* LLVM are the ones complaining. Btw, thanks to @corentinanjuna and @buildbuddy a *cold* LLVM build is now 20s, fully cross compiled from *anything* to *anything* (yes even macOS)

Wait based, ive had this on my ideas list for a hot second!!

BuildBuddy@buildbuddy

Large engineering teams use Bazel to tame their ever-growing monorepos. Today, we're excited to share rules_claude, a hermetic cross-platform Bazel toolchain and ruleset for Anthropic's Claude coding agent designed to make working in large enterprise codebases fun again.

English

Siggi@siggi·5 Şub

I’d probably try to model that as a claude_run target (which can operate on the source tree) that takes source files as input and the markdown file as output. Another approach might be to write your own rule / genrule that does a git diff. You could then pass that git diff results and the existing documentation in as inputs. Then have a rule that copies the outputs of that rule back to your source tree.

English

sin-ack@traits_reality·5 Şub

@siggi i'd like to use tools like this and rules_codex to only update documentation when something changes, feeding the documentation back as input, which feels antithetical to the DAG approach of bazel. how does this ruleset handle such things?

English

Siggi@siggi·3 Şub

I've been building at the intersection of Bazel + coding agents for a few months and have some fun things to share. The first one is a hermetic, cross-platform Claude Code toolchain let's you easily use Claude in Bazel builds, tests, and runs. Link & more below!
