Kilo is the all-in-one agentic engineering platform. Build, ship, and iterate faster with the most popular open source coding agent.
Describe a task and Cursor wires up triggers, instructions, and tools, lowering the setup cost for recurring agent runs.
An agent-native planning step that sketches a solution shape before writing any code, aimed at reducing wasted generation.
Demo-to-skill capture begins limited availability with broader rollout planned, per the Codex changelog.
A no-model, no-OCR parser competes with vision models on ParseBench, cutting cost and latency for document pipelines.
Reacting to a message can now kick off an agent run, smoothing team handoffs into Cursor workflows.
A free library of reusable agent skills gives builders ready patterns instead of writing agent scaffolding from scratch.
Always-on cloud agents can now react to issues, reviews, and Slack emojis and operate a computer, automating triage and PR fixes hands-free.
An independent briefing for builders: the whole field read continuously, every story scored for relevance, and the noise left off the page.
300+ curated sources. Every story scored 1–10 for builder relevance by Claude's frontier model. The filler never makes it to the page.
GPUs, datacenters, power deals, and inference economics: the infrastructure layer that decides what every builder pays. Our signature coverage.
Every story is sourced. Every score is computed. We show our work and link to originals.
Every briefing closes with The Call: one falsifiable claim with a date on it. When we're wrong, we say so in print. Opinions are cheap; ours get scored.
