I have just updated the install guide for Coldbox in which I define some alternate installation methods. I know not everybody has the same server setups and people need options. So I have written a very detailed guide on how to alter the files in order to accomodate different server installs. If you find a mistake in the process or you have found an alternate way of installation, please let me know. I will be very interested in it and I will pay you in "Monopoly Cash" I hope this gives developers and system administrators and project managers a more relaxed approach to installing a software foundation like coldbox. If you have any comments on this, you know where the comments button is. Thanks.

Copy of BoxLang AI 3.4 Blog Series Part 5 : Reasoning Without the Guesswork

Reasoning-capable models have been usable in BoxLang AI for a while. params passes straight through to the provider body, so params: { thinking: { type: "enabled", budget_tokens: 10000 } } for Claude, or params: { reasoning_effort: "high" } for OpenAI, already reached the API. What never worked was reading the reasoning back. It was parsed out on arrival and silently dropped. In 3.4.0, that's fixed, and it's fixed the same way for every provider.

BoxLang 1.17 Series Part 4 : WriteDump Enhanced!

You call writeDump() on an ORM entity or a very rich class graph . The browser locks up. Thirty seconds later you get a page with forty thousand rows on it, you scroll for a while, you give up, and you go edit your code to dump a sub-key instead. Or worse, you crash the server.
