https://x.com/dan_note/status/2050239025458409646 – DanNote on GitHub created a new GitHub organization called "Elixir-Vibe" — a home for Elixir-native tooling for AI-assisted coding, AST analysis, structural code search, code quality, architecture analysis, and BEAM-native coding agents.
https://github.com/elixir-vibe – The Elixir-Vibe GitHub organization housing libraries for fixing, reviewing, and spotting "slop" in AI-generated Elixir code.
https://x.com/kamilskowron/status/2051778642053628125 – Announcement of Credence, a semantic linter for LLM-generated Elixir code that catches patterns that compile and pass tests but are non-idiomatic, inefficient, or ported from Python/JavaScript conventions that don't belong in Elixir.
https://x.com/benoitc/status/2050939005395505185 – Benoit announced erlang_python 3.0.0, which embeds CPython into the BEAM with true parallelism via Python 3.14 OWN_GIL subinterpreters or free-threaded 3.13t, async/await, bidirectional Erlang↔Python callbacks, and stable thread affinity for numpy/torch.
https://github.com/benoitc/erlang-python – The erlang-python GitHub repo — combines Python's ML/AI ecosystem with Erlang's concurrency, making Python a first-class BEAM citizen rather than a simple guest like pythonx.
https://x.com/josevalim/status/2052090411607286087 – José Valim announced Tidewave updates including a minimap on large file diffs, pin-point agent feedback, smoother onboarding for Tidewave Teams, and updates to OpenCode, Claude Code & Codex.
https://open-design.ai/ – Open-source alternative to Claude Design. Turns your existing coding agent (Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, OpenCode, Qwen) into a design engine driven by 31 composable skills and 72 brand-grade design systems. Available on Mac and Windows.
