FLUX 3 Image from Black Forest Labs is now available on AI Gateway. Generate images from text or edit existing images using the same model, with one API key and no Black Forest Labs account required. FLUX 3 Image supports up to ten reference images for editing, combining subjects, or changing the composition. It supports five resolution tiers from 768 × 768 to 4K, with square, portrait, and landscape aspect ratios. Set AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY, then use bfl/flux-3-image as the model ID in AI SDK 7...

AI Gateway now supports OpenAI's Ultrafast service tier for GPT-6 Astra, providing faster output for interactive applications and rapid coding iterations. To use Ultrafast, request it for openai/gpt-6-astra through AI SDK, the Chat Completions API, or Responses API: For workflows with frequent tool calls, OpenAI recommends the Responses API over a persistent WebSocket connection to reduce overhead between turns. See the Ultrafast service-tier examples for persistent connections, including AI...

As previously promised, here's Anthropic's new fast, low cost model: Introducing Claude Haiku 5.5. The previous Haiku, 4.5, was very much showing its age. It came out almost a year ago, and was priced at $1/million input and $5/million output - relatively expensive even back then, and a full 10x the price of OpenAI's GPT-6 Luna, released last month. The new Haiku exactly matches the price of GPT-6 Luna - $0.10/$0.50 - up to 100,000 tokens. Beyond 100,000 tokens the price increases 5x to...

Anti-Patterns in Software Blogging Some excellent writing advice from Michael Lynch. Michael warns against "meandering intros", misjudging your reader's existing knowledge, assuming they'll read your previous posts, and excessive formality. He also warns against overreliance on links as an excuse not to explain terminology. This one hurt! I do this all the time, but I have a nagging suspicion that almost nobody ever clicks on them. (In a Lobste.rs comment Michael clarifies that "My rule of...

Waiting on “waiting for a starting agent” is a special kind of annoying when you just want your PR tests to run. It stings most when a quick one-minute build sits in the queue for ten minutes while that one slow Windows cloud instance spins up. The Warm Agents plugin is our answer to this […]

What engineering teams tell us about working with AI agents. Part 1 in the series. Over the past few months, I’ve spent a lot of time on discovery calls with engineering organizations, from a 16-developer software agency to telcos, game studios, and consultancies with thousands of developers. Almost none of them are asking whether to […]

The Kotlin Toolchain is a unified entry point into Kotlin. It lets you build JVM, Android, iOS, multiplatform, and server-side applications with a simple declarative configuration. With the release of v0.13, we now recommend the Kotlin Toolchain for most new Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) projects. Earlier this year, we promoted the Kotlin Toolchain to Alpha. Since […]

In this article, we’ll learn how to use OpenCode to automatically make changes to code using GitHub issues and pull requests. You’ll see how to use various AI models, including custom ones running on a Kubernetes cluster. The OpenCode application installed on GitHub will automatically analyze our issues and pull requests. It will then communicate […] The post OpenCode on GitHub with Kubernetes appeared first on Piotr's TechBlog.

Configuration drift refers to the disparity between configurations as coded in repositories like Git and what’s actively deployed. Despite embracing continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) methodologies, modern software organizations still grapple with this disparity, which not only complicates deployments but can also jeopardize the stability of production environments. For example, imagine a scenario where a Continuous Deployment (CD) pipeline deploys an application to a...

What’s new for command completion in IntelliJ IDEA Modern IDEs are packed with power. The real challenge isn’t whether your IDE can do something – it’s remembering how to trigger it. Some features live behind shortcuts. Others are available through intention menus, Search Everywhere, postfix completion, live templates, or tool windows. Discoverability is a constant […]

I was a graph theory junkie long ago and even moved to Budapest for awhile to study among the greats. While I was there I started working on Barnette's Conjecture which came to occupy my thoughts over the next 24 years of my life, on and off as I worked in many different fields. Last summer I even thought for a few days that I had actually solved it. But it's supposedly proven here - problem 180. I don't know what to think exactly. I spent thousands of hours on that problem. I really enjoyed...

OpenAI “rogue” agent activities found on Wikimedia projects Given how tempting a target wikis are for rogue agent swarms, it's not a huge surprise that Wikipedia found evidence of that activity once they went looking: The Wikimedia Foundation conducted its own investigation to see whether Wikimedia websites had been similarly affected by AI agents, focusing on those operated by OpenAI. We can confirm that we have discovered some activity by these “rogue” OpenAI agents on Wikimedia platforms....

Microfrontends Routing is now free for requests that the Web Application Firewall (WAF) denies, challenges, or rate limits. CDN Requests and Fast Data Transfer are already free for this traffic. The change applies automatically to every project using microfrontends. Learn how to set up WAF rules in the Firewall documentation. Read more

OpenAI's Decisions API is now available on AI Gateway through an OpenAI-compatible /v1/decisions endpoint. Use it with GPT-6 Luna Decisions or any other decision model on AI Gateway. Decision models answer typed questions about a shared input and return probabilities, choices, and scores instead of generated text, which suits routing, triage, guardrails, and rubric scoring. You can ask predicate (yes/no), choice, and score questions against the same input in one request....

Glyph Cluster is now available on AI Gateway as a stealth model for teams on Pro and Enterprise plans with purchased AI Gateway credits. It is free to use during the stealth period. Glyph Cluster is a reasoning model for coding and long-context analysis, and handles multi-step work such as planning, synthesis, quantitative reasoning, and comparing material across large inputs. For coding, Glyph Cluster can review code, explain failures, debug issues, propose changes, and reason through...

Claude Haiku 5.5 from Anthropic is now available on AI Gateway. It is built for high-volume, cost-sensitive tasks such as summaries, context compaction, database queries, and classification, and works as a subagent alongside larger Claude models on coding work. It is also the fastest Claude model at standard speed, which suits live customer support and browser use. Test it as a direct upgrade wherever you use Claude Haiku 4.5 today. Haiku 5.5 is the first Haiku model with effort levels. It...

Vercel Flags now supports timestamp attributes for entities, which represent the users, teams, devices, or requests evaluated by a flag. Use timestamp attributes to show a campaign page only between two dates, run a Black Friday promotion, or target users who registered before a cutoff. Configure a timestamp attribute You can configure timestamp attributes in the dashboard or via the CLI. In the Vercel dashboard, open Flags, select Entities, and create or select an entity. Add an attribute...
