Bluesky’s new app is an AI for customizing your feed
Powered by Anthropic's Claude, Attie can 'vibe code' entire applications on the AT Protocol.
The team behind the decentralized social platform Bluesky has launched Attie, a new AI assistant designed to democratize app creation on their AT Protocol. Unveiled by former CEO Jay Graber and CTO Paul Frazee at the Atmosphere conference, Attie is powered by Anthropic's Claude model. Its initial function allows users to build highly personalized social feeds using simple natural language commands, such as requesting "posts about folklore, mythology, and traditional music, especially Celtic traditions." These AI-curated feeds will first be available in a standalone Attie app, with plans to integrate them directly into Bluesky and other AT Protocol clients.
However, custom feeds are just the starting point. The ambitious long-term goal for Attie is to act as an agentic coding tool, enabling what the team calls 'vibe coding.' This would allow users with no programming experience to describe an app idea in plain English and have Attie generate a functional application on top of the AT Protocol's open data layer. Graber emphasized that this shift makes the protocol "genuinely open to everyone," moving beyond just developers. The AT Protocol's clearly defined schema for data makes it particularly suitable for AI agents to build upon. Attie is currently in a closed beta phase, and interested users can join a waiting list on its official website.
- Attie is an AI assistant from Bluesky's founders, powered by Anthropic's Claude model.
- It initially creates custom social media feeds via natural language prompts on the AT Protocol.
- The future roadmap aims for 'vibe coding,' letting non-developers build full apps with AI.
Why It Matters
It could democratize software development and give users unprecedented control over their social media algorithms and experiences.
