Developer connects coding agent to hosted automation platform WebArm24 via MCP

·2 views

The author built WebArm24, a hosted automation platform comparable to n8n, Zapier, and Make, but designed to be driven by an AI agent over the Model Context Protocol rather than a visual canvas. In a demonstration, a coding agent was asked to create a weekday 9am workflow fetching USD exchange rates, summarizing them with AI, and emailing the result, and the email arrived about 15 seconds after a test run. The platform exposes roughly 60 MCP tools covering pipelines, triggers, storage, and email, and supports step types such as LLM agents, HTTP requests, calls to third-party MCP servers, JavaScript, and Python. Every change is saved as a tagged revision so unattended agent edits can be undone, and the endpoint can be used by MCP clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf.

git stash Is Shared Across Worktrees, Causing Parallel Agents to Pop Each Other's Work

Two coding agents working on the same repository in separate git worktrees each ran a stash-test-pop check and ended up restoring each other's stashed changes. The incident, reported in objectstack issue #5742 on August 6, 2026, occurred without any error, since git stash pop printed a normal success message. Git's documentation says only pseudo refs like HEAD and the index are per-worktree, while refs/stash is shared across all worktrees in a repository. As a result, a bare git stash pop takes the newest entry in the common stash list regardless of which worktree created it. The article demonstrates this with a reproducible example and suggests checking where git resolves each ref path to understand the behavior.

BookLore Self-Hosted Library: 814 Title Matches Found, Identity Verification Advised

BookLore is a self-hosted, multi-user digital library supporting local and OIDC authentication, metadata enrichment and OPDS access. A count-only ZoomEye query on 2026-11-05 returned 814 exact title matches for BookLore but zero application fingerprint matches, which the article notes does not confirm running instances. The guidance stresses that library servers hold private books, reading data and credentials, so OPDS users and access scopes need verification. Administrators are advised to test login, setup and OPDS endpoints, review roles and OIDC mappings, and ensure removed users lose their credentials and sessions. Recovery procedures are also flagged, since the reviewed version lacked a password reset flow.
