    Whiteboard launches open-source IDE for human-agent software design

    Whiteboard is an open-source desktop IDE from devdotfast that lets developers and agents collaborate in a shared workspace for software architecture and design. The app is built on CodeOSS, includes an AST-aware semantic diff viewer in Rust, and adds a decision log so users can inspect agent reasoning and code changes more clearly.

    Rust Glancer: a low-memory Rust language server

    Rust Glancer is an alternative Rust language server built to use far less RAM than rust-analyzer, with a target of under 100 MB for typical projects. It also preserves analysis results on disk so indexing can be restored immediately after an editor restart, though the project is still incomplete and has known limitations.

    AWS Kiro adopts Agent Client Protocol to separate agents from editors

    AWS said Kiro has replaced three separate agent harnesses with a single standalone architecture built around the Agent Client Protocol (ACP). The change lets Kiro’s editor, CLI, and web clients talk to agents through a shared standard interface, with extensions and platform-specific experiences handled separately.

    Using OpenTelemetry to Distill Frontier Models into Local SLMs

    Ben O'Mahony describes building AI-powered Language Server Protocols that go beyond rule-based code checkers by using model-driven suggestions and actions. He argues that instrumenting AI agents with OpenTelemetry and using user outcomes like accept, dismiss, or regenerate as implicit labels can create a feedback loop to train cheaper local SLMs.

    Andrew Kelley criticizes Bun's Rust rewrite

    Zig creator Andrew Kelley published a detailed critique of Bun and its planned rewrite in Rust, focusing on the project’s management style, code quality, and technical direction. He argues that Bun’s startup pressures and rapid development led to poor engineering practices and tension with the Zig community.

    TypeScript 7 launches with a native Go port and major speed gains

    TypeScript 7 is now available as a native port built in Go, with the project claiming 8x to 12x faster full builds and lower memory use than TypeScript 6. The release also improves editor features through LSP support and faster multithreaded performance across common tools such as VS Code and Visual Studio.
