Bluesky’s AI assistant Attie expands into an open social research tool
Users can now ask Attie questions about news, trends, and conversations on Bluesky and other apps on the AT Protocol.
Get smart on it
Bluesky's AI assistant Attie has added a new feature called Quests that lets users ask it open-ended questions about information and news spreading across the Bluesky social network and apps built on the underlying AT Protocol. Users can now request Attie to pull information about trending topics or identify influential accounts in particular fields or locations.

The company is balancing community concerns about AI with the need to monetize services and fund the AT Protocol development it leads.

Building Self-Evolving AI Agents with OpenSpace Using Skills, MCP, Lineage, and Low-Cost Reuse
In this tutorial, we build and examine an OpenSpace workflow, progressing from environment setup and sparse repository cloning to live task execution, skill evolution, and MCP-based agent integration. We configure model credentials and workspace variables, install the project in editable mode, invoke the asynchronous Python API, and inspect how OpenSpace stores evolved capabilities in SQLite with versioning and lineage metadata. We also create a custom SKILL.md, connect host-agent skills, test
