@sodiboo dependabot doesn’t even seem that bad but. it paints a certain picture when dependabot isn’t the only bot he’s depending on

@sodiboo When the AI agents get so complex there needs to be more AI agents to operate them.

@shroomie dependabot is just a procedure:

  • are any dependencies out of date? especially, are there any known security vulnerabilities that have been fixed?
  • if so, open pull request with the dependency updated

there’s more nuance but that’s the entire core functionality. nothing wrong with it.

@shroomie correct. GitHub actions is a generic workflow runner, doing Things defined by the repository.

@sodiboo We don’t call that software, we call that slopware.

@chjara @sodiboo I'm afraid to tell you, but running a bunch of agents in a box letting them 'talk' to one another with roles and complex tasks is already a thing. You can do out of the box with off the shelf software.
