I prompt injected my CONTRIBUTING.md – 50% of PRs are bots (glama.ai)

Relevant since we started outright rejecting agent-made PRs in awesome-selfhosted [1] and issuing bans for it. Some PRs made in good faith could probably get caught in the net, but it's currently the only decent tradeoff we could make to absorb the massive influx of (bad) contributions. >99.9% of them are invalid for other reasons anyway. Maybe a good solution will emerge over time.

Guy making mcps surprised people use ai bots

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

He is not making MCPs. He is just maintaining a list of MCPs other people made.

If this repo really was the source code for MCPs, I'd understand - MCPs are (part of) the boundary between the LLM and the external world - you don't want to let bots implement their own sandboxing.

But for an "awesome list"? Who cares?

I thought it was something related to Minecraft, but it's a slop enabler so honestly, poetic justice. If someone who peddles slop is upset about receiving slop, I'm happy.

Did you go to the repo before running your mouth? It's awesome-selfhosted data.

What AI slop?

[–] Dojan@pawb.social 6 points 2 months ago

This is not AI bullshit?

Per their own description

MCP is an open protocol that enables AI models to securely interact with local and remote resources through standardized server implementations. This list focuses on production-ready and experimental MCP servers that extend AI capabilities through file access, database connections, API integrations, and other contextual services.

It's ironic that they'd complain that their PRs are just auto-generated slop when they're collating tools for that exact purpose. They made that bed, so now they should lie in it.

they're referring to the linked article in the post. Ironic that your comment is calling someone out for not reading it.

[–] Dultas@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The blog post is specifically about awesome-mcp-servers not awsome-selfhosted so maybe you should read the article before posting?

I'm guessing I must have missed something here when I made that comment. I visited the link in the body of the OP not once, or twice, but three times to verify I wasn't losing my mind. Even went into reading the readme, some issues...etc to verify.

I'm now realizing that in my Lemmy client the link in the body is more obvious to click on than the actual article itself.
