Boris Cherny, who built Claude Code, says engineering, product, design and data science are melting into one role, and what's left is five archetypes: Prototyper, Builder, Sweeper, Grower, Maintainer. I read the list and realised I'm all five, because building solo with agents leaves no one to hand a phase to. The framework is thirty years old. What's new is that it just became the primary axis instead of the secondary one.

I ran that checklist across 74 CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files. The real debt turned out to be the rule I had never written.

Read more →Real footgun stories and the deterministic hooks that would've prevented them. From $30k API key leaks to nuked home directories.
Read more →A community file distilling Karpathy's coding-agent observations hit 60K stars on four principles. I opened my own CLAUDE.md to compare. I'd independently written two of them. The two I hadn't are the ones that matter most.
Read more →Task management designed for AI coding agents. CLI-first, git-native sync, and Model Context Protocol integration.
Read more →Claude Code can now watch your PRs in the cloud, fix CI failures, and address reviewer comments while you're away. It's the logical next step after auto mode - and it raises the same trust questions, harder.
Read more →The official Claude Code plugin that lets agents work autonomously for hours. When to use it, when not to, and the philosophy behind letting AI fail repeatedly until it succeeds.
Read more →Five weeks after Cursor caught Grok 4.5 with a benchmark's answer key in the training set, xAI shipped Grok 4.6 under a launch table its rival wins six rows of. The contaminated benchmark is back, clean, and losing. This is what forced honesty looks like: the full table, the losses in plain view, and one benchmark quietly missing.
