I'm a huge fan of Playwright MCP or Chrome Dev Tools MCP but I just came across Playwright CLI this morning and something tells me using this with a skill is going to be my preferred way of using browser automation with Agents. github.com/microsoft/pl...

Hi @nuxt.com , I am receiving 500 HTTP errors from Nuxt UI MCP server, is there something currently down? Is there a MCP status page to know when the MCP server is having issues?

I had fun this week-end with GitHub Spec Kit. I started from an @aspire.dev Blazor+Minimal API template and built a Christmas Story generator for my almost 5-year-old daughter.
First time for me with Microsoft Agent Framework and Blazor. GitHub Copilot did a good job. Aspire MCP is awesome

Background agents in latest vscode version seem awesome.
Having everything built-in to delegate tasks to agents that work locally, autonomously, and potentially in an isolated context is going to be game changer.

Watching AspiriFriday replay featuring @scott.hanselman.com @maddymontaquila.net @damianedwards.com and @davidfowl.com is both highly educational and incredibly entertaining. On one side so many small learnings (tools, way of thinking, tips, good practices, etc). On the other side, just pure fun 😊

@acolombiadev.bsky.social nice video about GitHub Copilot Spaces! Usage with Copilot Agent is very interesting. However for the MCP, in its current state Copilot can't use the content of a space so it's useless. Are other tools currently being developed for this MCP?

Today, AI didn’t solve my coding issue. I tried Gemini Pro 3, Claude Opus 4.5, and GPT‑5.1 Codex. None helped, even with full context from my IDE and docs.
The problem wasn’t complex—the solution was simple once found 😁. The issue was that the AI gave wrong answers, not the right one 🤣.

@captainsafia.com I've discovered your blog recently and I love reading your articles, especially the ones about Aspire. Great job.
It seems Aspire is starting to overlap with some tools like Nuke, Cake, or Pulumi. I was wondering, is the plan to integrate with them or be an alternative to them?
