this is a cool and practical intro to Jev and how you can use it to make those agents faster and cheaper
Watching agents think feels like waiting for images to load pixel by pixel on a 56k modem.
John on our team got a docs agent to a 0.5s median answer with prefetching, speculation, and fewer round trips to the LLM. Web perf tricks, applied to agents.

another instant classic on the sanity engineering blog!
I stopped using Safari @sanity.io because of wobbly spinners. Now I can use it again thanks to zoom banter & humans working together, & writing a @github.com PR _by hand_ (NO AI)! It didn't require convincing @jensimmons.bsky.social to add no-wobbles to Baseline 2027! www.sanity.io/engineering/...

We just published a new engineering blog post on @sanity.io on how we cut our Grafana Mimir hosting bill almost in half.
Much kudos to Josh and the SRE team on this one!

How we cut our Mimir bill (nearly) in half | Sanity
Two infrastructure changes, zonal cache placement and arm64 CPUs, cut our self-hosted Mimir bill nearly in half while reducing latency. Here's how.

Get through security reviews faster.
The new Security tab in Manage gives you a centralized view of security configurations across every Sanity project. Find project members, long-lived API tokens, risky CORS configs, and which datasets are public.

Your design system doesn’t work well with agents. Maybe it does. Either way, are you sure?
We’ve been crankin’ on this at Sanity. We made a tool to test agents with our design system. And not just our system, yours should work too.

corrected the typo/weird phrasing – thanks!
"ironically," it is an 100% hand-typed blog post. maybe i'm influenced from my californian whereabouts, but i hope the thoughtfulness behind it is as real and effective as if i where to type it out from the other side of the atlantic ;)

This year Everything NYC is about Powering Intelligence, so we're giving you an afternoon to build it. We're running a workshop the day before.
Ask the Sanity team questions as they come up, see how they actually approach things, and get an early look at what's coming next.

Yeah, this is completely out of line, and not what we are coaching our team on. We are following this up internally.

@sanity.io studio finally has out-of-the-box table support. that's huge.
(and the underlying Container API support for PTE is an even huger unlock for inline editing of nested data structures)

Today, I helped ship native Portable Text tables in @sanity.io Studio: www.sanity.io/docs/changel...
Portable Text always supported nested structures, but making them inline editable was a whole new beast, one we've been chipping at since vendoring Slate in Feb.
Gonna talk more about this soon!

"The bot actually knows who you are, and that has a huge impact on the answers."
That's the whole idea behind the support bot we rebuilt with Sanity Context. The goal: more than half of you get unstuck without waiting on us, and a Support person stays one message away whenever you need them.
