Every issue of ElixirLens, from the beginning.
Tidewave adds three lines to your Phoenix endpoint and turns your live app into an MCP server — so AI coding agents can query your database, eval code, and read logs against the actual runtime, not a static snapshot.
Hackney v3.x replaced its C-backed HTTP/3 implementation with pure Erlang QUIC. That's not a refactor — it's a proof of concept for how the BEAM should work.
A Tencent benchmark put Elixir at the top of 20 languages for LLM code completion. José Valim just explained why — and the answer is about design philosophy, not market share.
Oban 2.21.0 adds a suspended job state. It sounds minor. It isn't.
OpenAI published Symphony — a multi-agent coding orchestrator — as 96% Elixir. The README offers no justification. In 2026, that silence says something.
AlexClaw is a personal autonomous agent built on OTP. Its author says he didn't plan most of it — he just kept solving the next problem. The architecture tells a different story.
Three projects dropped this month and they all point at the same thing. The BEAM community has quietly crossed a line.
Elixir 1.20 infers types across whole functions and guards — with no annotations required. This is a bigger deal than it sounds.
Ectomancer turns your Ecto schemas into MCP tools. The schema is the contract — and that changes what 'AI-native backend' actually means.
Agent-to-agent communication is the new distributed systems. Elixir solved this in 1986.
Phoenix LiveView caught up to React in more ways than one. The question is whether it matters.
Elixir's concurrency model didn't anticipate AI agents — it just described them, thirty years early.
