Agent Package Manager (APM) in action

  1. Agent primitives are software: Your .prompt.md and .instructions.md files represent executable natural language programs that deserve professional tooling infrastructure.
  2. Runtime diversity enables scale: Agent CLI runtimes provide the execution environments that bridge development to production.
  3. Package management is critical: APM provides the npm-equivalent layer that makes agent primitives truly portable and shareable.
  4. Production ready today: This tooling stack enables automated AI workflows in CI/CD pipelines with enterprise-grade reliability.
  5. Ecosystem growth pattern: Package management infrastructure creates the foundation for thriving ecosystems of shared workflows, tools, and community libraries

Talk, Tag, Build: How Three Prompts Automate Product Development

Setup it's three markdown files, and it's basically three prompts. What I figured out is, okay, if you want to build something, whether it's the whole app or just a feature of the app, you of course have to create a PRD, a product requirement doc, and again, it's like, duh....

Quote from "The Peterman Pod: Mozilla Firefox CTO on Browser War Stories and the Path to Distinguished Engineer"

I think it is one of the most powerful ways to create clarity of thinking for yourself, because clarity of thinking is, in my view, one of the most important things. And you only can really get that by forcing yourself to write down your ideas. And so I suppose one pertinent or timely piece of advice is, if you care about this, do not use an LLM to produce text for YouTube.

Because first of all, if you're putting your name on this thing, at least today, the LLM is like, it's pretty easy to tell when somebody does that. But more importantly, you are losing the opportunity to do the thinking yourself. And that thinking that happens when you write is one of the most important types of thinking for growth.

Integration in Slack of Claude Agent SDK

The co-founder of Instagram, Mike Krieger, which is now at Anthropic, mentioned that they use the Claude Agent SDK in a automated Slack channel when there is a new incident. It is name Claude Pager and it gathers all the context of the incident and can be poked to give out infromation when needed.

I have been waiting to implement something similar in our stack, once we are finally off the waiting list of the Datadog MCP waitlist...

Vibe Engineering

Following the vibe research, we now get vibe engineering from Simon Willison: Definition Vibe engineering establishes a clear distinction from vibe coding. It signals that this is a different, harder and more sophisticated way of working with AI tools to build production so...

Vibe Research

“vibe research”. Like “vibe coding”, it’s performing a difficult technical task by relying on the model. I have a broad intuitive sense of what approaches are being tried, but I definitely don’t have a deep enough understanding to do this research unassisted. A real AI researcher would get a lot more out of the tool.

The basic loop of doing AI research with Codex (at least as an enthusiastic amateur) looks something like this:

  1. Codex makes a change to the training script and does three or four runs (this takes ~20 minutes overall)
  2. Based on the results, Codex suggests two or three things that you could try next
  3. I pick one of them (or very occasionally suggest my own idea) and return to (1).

Vibe Coding Audiobook Review
