AI coding agents are fast, but they cut corners. Agent Skills is an open-source project by Addy Osmani that gives agents the same structured workflows senior engineers follow, from spec to ship. This post breaks down how it works, explains the Google engineering principles it builds on (Hyrum’s Law, Chesterton’s Fence, the Beyonce Rule, Shift […]
Read More →A viral Claude Code skill claims to cut 65% of output tokens by making LLMs talk like cavemen. Two research papers suggest forced brevity can actually improve accuracy in large models. But tokens are also compute — and nobody has benchmarked whether caveman-speak helps or hurts code quality. A look at the arguments on both […]
Read More →512,000+ lines of Anthropic’s Claude Code CLI leaked from a source map left in their public npm package. 1,900 TypeScript files exposing multi-agent orchestration, 40 permission-gated tools, and unreleased feature flags. Not a hack. A build config nobody checked. Table of contents Anthropic’s Claude Code CLI, all 512,000+ lines of it, got exposed to the […]
Read More →Most people blame Claude for strict limits. The blame is justified to an extent. Until Anthropic eases its usage limits, users are better off optimizing token usage. All you need to do is use tokens wisely, but not everyone knows how to do that and ends up losing a lot of tokens and money as […]
Read More →OpenSpec is an open-source framework that brings spec-driven development to AI coding agents. Write specs in Markdown, agree on the plan before writing code, and keep your project’s requirements versioned in Git. Three commands — propose, apply, archive — and your agent finally builds what you actually want. Table of Contents You’ve been there. You […]
