What it is: Block Engineering post by Tyler Longwell introducing Buzz, an open-source channel-driven workspace for humans and agents.

Gist: Buzz treats agentic engineering as a coordination problem, not just an intelligence problem. People, agents, repositories, decisions, signed identities, authorizations, telemetry, and Git activity all live in shared channels. The post emphasizes agent-owned keys, scoped delegation, portable signed history, object-storage-backed Git, and preserving the “why” behind work instead of losing it inside private agent sessions.
