Us FDEs at Camunda embed in customer envs as "just another engineer" at the org. Often this means having to use Win11, fear-bricked by corp IT w/ endpoint security, virus scanner(s!), etc. And then you drop into WSL and go "aaaahhhhh" when the relief kicks in.

Node.js 26.10 comes with built-in debounce and throttle utilities. Like it! Can't tell you how many times I implemented (copied from the previous project) these two. Debounce: nodejs.org/docs/latest/... Throttle: nodejs.org/docs/latest/... #nodejs

funny to observe that w/ "Graph Engineering" in 2026, the AI "industry" seems to finally reach the verdict that deterministically orchestrating agents is the secret sauce. Exactly what Camunda has been doing with "Agentic Orchestration" since ... forever?!

"Graph engineering is the practice of wiring multiple specialized agents or steps into a graph - nodes that do the work, edges that route between them, and shared state flowing along those edges - for when a single agent running one loop isn't enough." (from www.aibuilderclub.com/blog/graph-e...)

Hey #SAP-osphere, Google just published TabFM, "a foundation model designed specifically for tabular data classification and regression", under an Apache OS license: research.google/blog/introdu... Seems to essentially do rn what SAP's RPT model might never deliver: www.sap.com/products/art...

MCP tools, Agents + Subagents, Skills - all missing a consistent versioning story. We're solving this pragmatically in #ProcessOS (semver, tags, releases). But c'mon, this is solved everywhere else in Software Engineering already; there should have been a standard for this from the get-go.

I've been working on @Camunda's #ProcessOS for some time now (context: ProcessOS is to processes what coding agents provide for software development). This means using an agentic engineering approach to -well- create the agentic solution ProcessOS (yep, inception vibes). 1/5

- high quality agentic engineering remains expensive, in time and money. Yes, that's right, folks. Even with an agent swarm capable of hammering unparalleled amounts of feature code towards your quality gates, _test-driving_ durable and resistant agentic solutions is sloooow and burns tokens. 4/5

Yet in the murky waters of probabilistic engineering, some structural invariants have become even more -well- invariable than ever: - tests rule. They not only protect from regressions, but also decide on development speed. The quicker you can quality control PRs, the faster PRs can land. 2/5

- terminals rule. (They always have, but that's besides the point here.) They're the most direct path to the engine room, natural language flows as plain text right into the machine. Extra bonus if you use STRG+G (and have $editor=nvim in your env) on the prompt for more editing options. 3/5

🇩🇪 Kein Aprilscherz, sondern eher Ostergeschenk: Teil 3 und damit der finale Artikel meiner Serie zur prozessbasierten Softwareentwicklung auf Golem ist online: 👉 www.golem.de/news/prozess... Diesmal dreht sich alles um Betrieb, Day-2-Operations und Skalierung. (Paywall, aber 100% handgetippt 😜)

So I did a thing: I willed the new Camunda8 CLI into existence 🤙 Meet c8ctl ("cocktail" 🍹). Interact with clusters, manage processes, extend via plugins, bridge your Copilot to your cluster (yes, really). Built for humans and agents. $> npm i -g @camunda8/cli camunda.com/blog/2026/03/meet-c8ctl/

Okay troublemakers, punks, antifa supervillains, and anyone who just enjoys being a petty little shitbird while they fuck up the algorithm of a massive media corp. Here's your assignment for the weekend. Get on it and spread the word.

Time for a small update: as of last week, my time as an SAP Mentor has come to an end. No drama, no backroom story, no scandal. The ecosystem moved on, my role at Camunda evolved, and at some point those paths just don’t overlap the way they used to. (1/3)

Given how Camunda tends to show up in various analyst reports and comparisons, it also felt wise to avoid any perceived conflicts of interest on the workflow side of things (insert analyst BOAT quad here :) ). I’m still very much in the SAP world: I’ll keep using UI5 and CAP (2/3)

just not with the same depth and intensity as over the past few years. And I’ll keep helping maintain wdi5 - you don’t abandon your kids, do you :) Huge thanks to everyone in the SAP Mentor community for all the chances to push SAP tech a bit further than the slideware. Good times. (3/3)

We had trouble with our publishing process to npmjs.com b/c of the elevated security principles GitHub enforced (which is a good thing!). This is fixed now, and v3.0.7 is live. The publishing process now uses the most secure OIDC-based "trusted publishing", including provenance. Happy testing!
