Umesh Uttamchandani runs DevX. We hold eChai gatherings in their spaces city after city, so for a lot of founders here the name is an address more than a company.
Forty-five minutes with him on Radio LJ 90.8 FM, on how it got built.
Vaibhav Srivastav is at OpenAI, and was at Hugging Face before that, so this is written from inside the team that shipped the model. The five lines in the middle are the part to keep: what to change in your own prompts and AGENTS.md now that Astra follows instructions more closely than the model before it.

GPT-6 Astra is now available to all Pro, Enterprise and Business Premium users in ChatGPT Work and Codex. It’s also live in the API.
It's a phenomenal model and I love every second working with it!
Astra follows instructions more closely, so revisit your prompts and skills:
> Make “can you…” mean “do it”: finish authorised work and prepare a reviewable result before seeking approval.
> Audit AGENTS.md and skills. Ask it to identify the exact file and rule blocking progress. Prioritise your request over skill guidelines.
> Specify short paragraphs, plain language and phrases to avoid.
> Ask for subagents on independent work when it improves speed or quality.
> Run relevant checks. Repeat or expand only for changes, failures or unresolved concerns.
To push it to it's limits, I gave it a prompt to build a real-scale video fly through of nürburguring track in blender and it did not disappoint!
Enjoy! ✨
Miguel Ángel is a product engineer at HeyGen, and HyperFrames is HeyGen's own product, so this is the model being used on the thing he builds all day.

Astra is so cracked at Blender.
You can literally one-shot game assets with it.
