We built our own AI coding agent. Here's why we're sunsetting it.

Tinybird is discontinuing its AI-powered CLI, Tinybird Code, which was designed to facilitate the development of Tinybird projects using natural language prompts and deep ClickHouse knowledge. Despite its effectiveness, the decision to sunset Tinybird Code stems from a broader realization about the evolution of coding agents, which have rapidly matured and no longer require custom wrappers to function effectively. The development process for Tinybird Code significantly improved the platform by enhancing error messaging, streamlining the CLI, and refining documentation, making it more agent-friendly. Instead of maintaining a custom agent, Tinybird has distilled its domain knowledge into portable Agent Skills that can be utilized by any coding agent, allowing for a seamless integration with existing workflows and continuous improvement as agents evolve. This shift prioritizes creating a platform compatible with all agents, emphasizing clear interfaces, predictable behavior, and useful feedback, while encouraging users to adopt the skills approach for a more adaptable and robust experience.
