Posts on AI engineering, developer tools, and what it actually looks like to build and ship software with AI assistance.
A step-by-step guide to using Claude or ChatGPT for AI tax filing. Collect your documents, redact sensitive info, clean up the noise, and let AI help you fill out every form — without uploading your SSN to the cloud.
Stop re-authenticating every Playwright MCP session. This Claude Code plugin saves storageState authentication profiles per user role — log in once, keep your session persistent across sessions.
It's 2026 and big checks are still being cut to pre-product AI companies. Here's my standard reply to the recruiters.
The brute-force framing misses the point. For well-defined closure tasks — plan refinement, prototype validation, implementation verification — the Ralph Loop doesn't stumble toward correctness. It converges.
Nine layers of guardrails that make AI coding agents safe, predictable, and actually useful — from CLAUDE.md to CI pipelines to specialized review agents.
The old question was 'can you code?' The new question is 'can you build and ship?' A framework for evaluating engineers who use Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI-assisted coding tools.
Test Driven Development is dead. Quality control can be largely automated now. That frees you to focus on what actually matters: building things people want.
Anthropic just raised $30B. A small fraction could fund the Claude Code showcase the ecosystem actually needs.
The real barriers to AI coding tool adoption aren't technical — they're management problems, employee problems, and human nature problems.
Claude's default mode is eager compliance—give it vague instructions and it'll happily make assumptions. These workflow skills force systematic iOS HIG verification, catching platform convention violations you'd never think to check.
Claude's default mode is eager compliance. These interview skills flip the script—using AskUserQuestion to force systematic questioning before any code gets written.
Four Claude Code skills that generate and execute user workflow tests using Claude-in-Chrome and iOS Simulator MCPs. Catch bugs and edge cases while you're still building.
You don't need custom slash commands or skills—just point Claude Code at your CLI tools and describe what you want
How I stopped babysitting GitHub Actions and let Claude Code monitor, debug, and fix CI failures autonomously
How AI pair programming helped me finally ship a stalled project
