Where Drupal really stands with AI agents, where it has a right to win, and what we need to do next.
AI agents can build with almost anything. That is both great news and a problem for Drupal.

A year into the Drupal AI Initiative, AI inside of Drupal has a clear goal for the months ahead. At DrupalCon Rotterdam at the end of September, we want to show a single Drupal site where AI Search, an AI chatbot, AI content review, and AI translation all work together on real, multilingual content, with observability and security running underneath...

The Drupal project runs one of the most disciplined coordinated-disclosure programs in open source, and it has done so through volunteer effort for more than two decades. Millions of sites, many operated by governments, universities, and enterprises, depend on it.

Marcin Grabias, Senior Drupal Engineer and maintainer of the Drupal LMS module, used Claude Code to merge two near-duplicate activity plugins into a single configurable one in roughly ten minutes of work that would have taken an hour by hand.

I've stepped into the role of interim CEO of the Drupal Association for a limited period, expected to last six to twelve months. My job in that time is to help put the Association on a durable footing. As I undertake that task, I want to start by being direct about where we are and where I'd like to see us go next.
The Drupal stewardship the Association provides costs more every year. That...
