If your AI moves fast but your CI gets stuck in the middle, whats the point?
Announcing Dagger for GitHub.
Run the same checks before and after push. See results in your terminal and PR.
Cut out the middleman: just GitHub and Dagger Cloud.
Stop wasting compute: checks are cached, and you pay for exact usage, not machines.

Personal AI assistants can sometimes drive you completely crazy 😤 (ask my keyboard, it has scars). But when they work, it feels like magic ✨ Two examples from this week.
My partner had just bought a second-hand vehicle and needed to register it at the DMV in NYC. If you’ve never dealt with the DMV, imagine paperwork designed by someone who hates you personally 📑😵 I sent my assistant a few pictures of the car and its papers. He filled in every form, sent them over, went online and booked the appointment. Two minutes ⏱️ I’ve spent longer choosing a salad on the menu.
The next day she shows up at the DMV, proud, organized, ready. At the entrance: “Confirmation, please.” 📄 The confirmation is in my inbox. Not hers. Stupid me 🤦♂️ So she calls me. Nothing. Calls again. Nothing. Because I am, at that exact moment, in the pool 🏊♂️ (for real), doing my best dolphin impression, phone locked in a locker, completely unreachable.
So she did something she would never have thought of six months ago. She opened WhatsApp and wrote to my AI in our thread: “Hey, send me the DMV reservation for today.” 📲 My AI dug through my inbox, found the email, pulled the confirmation and sent it to her. He even added a picture of the barcode on whatsapp so she wouldn’t have to open the email 🙌 More thoughtful than me on a good day. She walked in, did her thing, walked out.
I got out of the pool 40 minutes later, hair wet, feeling very athletic 💪 One missed call from her. And a WhatsApp from Bob: “Reservation forwarded.” ✅ Problem solved, crisis averted, partner not needed. That’s the shift. 🔥 Slightly humbling, I’ll admit.
And that’s the easy one 😅 Last week Bob picked up the phone and called a restaurant to book a table for 10 🍽️📞 A real call. A real human on the other end. I’m still not sure the restaurant knows it was talking to a robot, and honestly, I’m not telling them 🤫
Is my custom homemade assistant as robust as Muse, Instinct and the big guys? Probably not 🤷♂️ It still has his moments and it requires some work. But it gets better every single day 🚀
- It saves successful skills
- It works over email, whatsapp, telegram
- It has all the context about all my meetings
- And more...
