Sandboxing is a solved problem, there are dozens of providers of firecracker instances to run your agent in. The problem to be solved is how do you define task-specific least privilege versions of your coding agent.

“Teaching and engineer to understand the minutia of fund accounting well enough to build software for these firms is tough.” Sounds like you need a senior familiar with finance/accounting and a family to feed. Email me!

how do you measure if google’s engineering org is more productive than meta’s? What about comparing 2 startups/small teams? I think the discussion about methods (coding agents included) depends on answering those questions. Seems point

A key term is ‘single player value’. One type of user needs to get benefits out of this marketplace as a tool so that you can use that engagement to solve the chicken and egg problem.

Not sure if you mean 1) sub-agent definitions (similar to skills in Claude Code) or 2) CLI scripts that use other coding agents (eg claude calling gemini via cli). For (1) I'm trying to come up with a simple enough definition that can

I implemented a client for each so that the session history is easy to extract regarding the agent (somewhat related to progress of goal). Context: AGENTS.md is standard across all; and subdirectories have their AGENTS.md so in a way this i

I'm leaning in this direction. Recently slopforked pi to python and created a version that's basically a loop, an LLM call to openrouter and a hook system using pluggy. I have been able to one-shot pretty much any feature a coding

The past month made me realize I needed to make my codebase usable by other agents. I was mainly using Claude Code. I audited the codebase and identified the points where I was coupling to it and made a refactor so that I can use either cod

I guess then if you did not receive instruction from the Buddha himself you cannot call yourself a true buddhist.

Agree, i was going the vaultwarden route and figured this pattern seems better: https://fly.io/blog/tokenized-tokens/ Secrets are encrypted and the proxy decrypts on the fly if destination is whitelisted for that

The problem we have as software engineers (from an entrepreneur's pov) is that we mostly struggle with stuff that's removed from the client's problem. I mean it in terms of owning the solution to a problem, being accountable&

I’ve been a year deep into my first job out of tech. There is a never ending slew of problems where being able to code, specially now with AI, means you have wizard-like powers to help your coworkers. My codebase is full of one-offs that sl

Just wrapped up my own module for this. Remixed my worktree workflow with a lima wrapper. I wanted to go head first to giving Claude Code full autonomy but realized capability and prevention need to go hand in hand Next step for me is creat

If they believe it would get them AGI they would risk it.

I agree with you in spirit but this harms the potential for these new products to emerge. You’re saying you don’t want them to be able to accrue a data moat. It sounds good for user privacy and optionality later on but it makes it harder fo

I have a directory called workspace where there’s a projects directory and the main area is for messing around. Just setup workspace once as a project.

Spot on, this is a solid abstraction to build upon. I always felt MCP was a misstep in comparison to OpenAI’s focus on OpenAPI specs. HATEOAS is the principle that has become more useful as agents drive applications.

I think it’s a mix of social media and risk aversion, this article touches on the broader discussion as it impacts many kinds of design https://www.alexmurrell.co.uk/articles/the-age-of-average

I agree with you in spirit, but that’s not an answer you can apply when there’s someone else’s money at stake.

My take on “Hard on purpose” is that it’s plausible deniability. It’s not for showing off, it’s to make the situation polite in a way that you can’t rationally attribute malice.

This seems misguided. The human submitter is accountable for the code submitted. Doesn’t matter if the AI built it, a contractor in another timezone, or ten thousand monkeys typing away. Github provides a profile but it’s not meant to make

I don't think this is a fair comparison. It's easier to move and retrain nowadays; there's also more kinds of jobs. These things will probably become even easier with more automation.

The problem is that the term itself is not clearly defined. Then, we discuss 'what will it do once it arrives' so all bets are off. You're right that I probably disagree as to what AGI is and what it will do once "we&#x2
