Spent the weekend testing out our new Universe badges with my son. He gave it a 10/10. RP2350 on MicroPython, 2.8" TFT, accelerometer that auto-flips the screen, capacitive gaming controls, and an AGENTS.md so Copilot can code + deploy to it. 🤓

We worked with maintainers, including @tianzhouchen, to build a better way to track GitHub stars over time. The new API returns daily star counts without exposing who starred a project, making star history easier to retrieve, cheaper to serve, and more private. Here's how we built it: github.blog/engineering/arch…

From 2,500 requests to 24: Rebuilding star history without the stargazers

Our new repo star history API now provides trends without returning individual identities or requiring unbounded database work.

Even when the end-to-end tests pass, I sometimes want to see a feature working before I approve a PR. The GitHub Copilot app lets me watch my agent run tests, build the app, and check a filter change in the built-in browser canvas. I can verify the behavior without leaving the app or switching windows. Here's a quick walk-through. 👇

As low-quality contributions increase across open source repositories, more contributors should have the tools to help manage repos. Users with triage, write, maintain, or admin access can now archive PRs.

Users with triage role or higher can now archive and unarchive pull requests. • Archiving closes PRs, makes them read-only, and hides them from public view • Unarchiving restores commenting but does not reopen the PR github.blog/changelog/2026-1…

Approvals are now retained for Stacked PRs after stack rebases ✅ Whether you use the "Rebase stack" button or partially merge a stack, as long as the diff doesn't change, PR approvals will be kept even if you have "dismiss stale approvals" turned on

After introducing PR limits, we heard from maintainers dealing with a flood of draft PRs. You can now turn on “Count draft pull requests toward the limit” to include drafts in your repository’s limit. What other controls would help you manage contributions?

Back on X! I’m looking forward to talking with developers about how we’re scaling GitHub, improving reliability, and how AI is changing the way we build software. I discussed all three on the Engineering Leadership Podcast: sfelc.com/podcasts/navigatin…

Jakub Oleksy, SVP of Software Engineering @ Github, joins the podcast to discuss how Github is addressing some of the biggest challenges facing the industry when it comes to infrastructure scaling,...

My AI agent now has a face! 🤖 Idle. Working. Needs a decision. Done. It’s a Waveshare ESP32 on my desk. I pointed Copilot CLI at a photo of the device and ended up with blink, look-around, tap, sleep, and hook-driven states. Also created a web-based "character studio" so I wasn’t flashing firmware after every animation tweak. Full walkthrough of the process in the video! 🎥 Repo: github.com/danwahlin/esp32-a…

AI coding tools increase developer output. But growing pull request backlogs can easily overwhelm engineering teams, contributing to what’s known as “review fatigue.” Here’s how to calibrate your workflows for agentic development. Improve prompts, use stacked pull requests, and recognize how the developer role is changing. github.com/resources/insight…
