The team behind Bluesky is launching Attie, an AI-powered app that will let users design their own algorithm and eventually “vibe-code” their own app.

Attie was created by Bluesky’s exploration team, led by chief innovation officer (CIO) Jay Graber, who stepped down as the company’s CEO earlier in March.

Attie will work as a separate app from Bluesky and will allow users to customize their feeds, according to its developers.

Users will be able to write natural-language prompts to create social feeds without needing to know how to code. In the end, the plan is to let them vibe-code their own social apps and build tools for others, Bluesky’s interim CEO Toni Schneider told TechCrunch in an interview.

For now, the application is available on the web and only for select users. Those who would like to try out the new app can join the waiting list through their Bluesky account.

“Describe what you want to see and watch your feed compose itself around you,” explains Attie's website.

“We built the AT Protocol so anyone could build any app they imagine on top of it, but until recently, 'anyone' really meant ‘anyone who can code,’” Graber said in a blog post.

The app doesn’t require users to know how to code and can provide them with the type of feed they want to see according to what they describe.

One of the provided examples was Attie being asked to “show electronic music and experimental sound from people in my network.” It provided a list of Bluesky users’ posts on the topic.

Other examples included coding, design, poetry, and even niche topics, such as Celtic traditions.

Graber notes that Bluesky and Attie are two separate apps, suggesting that users of one app won’t need to use the other to access the feature.

Nevertheless, both apps were built on the same framework, which may indicate that some functionalities could be implemented in both apps in the future, notes Engadget.
