Yes, you could also do essentially the same thing with Claude Code, but I use GHCP.

How I Use 20 AI Agents to Manage My Working Week I built 20 AI agents with GitHub Copilot CLI and an Obsidian vault to manage 25 meetings a week across three Microsoft partners. Here's what the system looks like, what genuinely helped, where I over-...

I use GitHub Copilot CLI a little differently to most people; it basically acts as my professional admin tool connected with Obsidian. I’ve tried to describe it on my blog. It is a WIP but loving the power & flexibility.

Oh don't mind me, I am just building my own group of coaches in GitHub Copilot CLI... they'll use my notes and interactions in Obsidian and Work IQ to synthesise guidance on where I'm spending my time and my performance to help my own thinking. I'm loving how powerful this stuff is!

@scott.hanselman.com loved your session at Tech Connect. How are you doing voice input?

You know what’s cool?

Using GitHub Copilot CLI to help me organise and analyse my Obsidian vault.

Or using GHCP + the Microsoft Learn MCP to research and answer a question from a Partner and help me draft an email.

You know what’s not cool?

Reclining your seat in an exit row.

OK, agents in GitHub Copilot are pretty awesome.

18-year old car passed its MOT today, only a couple of advisories. I can breathe a sigh of (financial) relief.

Until next year.

Understanding Partner Center Identity & Entra ID Associating your primary corporate Entra ID with Microsoft Partner Center is a common architectural error that is surprisingly difficult to reverse. Here is why it happens and the reality of your opti...

I've spent some time digging into Microsoft's Partner Center and Entra ID details - turns out you cannot switch the primary Entra ID tenant once you've associated it with PC. This can be a challenge!

At least I’m on brand with my job!

I managed to get a cheap upgrade to First Class on my train though, so that’s a win. Who knew a decent table with some elbow room helps you get stuff done?

I don’t like mornings where I get up and the hour is 04:xx. Somebody get me some caffeine.

You had me at "with other natural flavor"...

I'm actually quite pleased with how it works, using different AI models for different aspects of the task (titles, research, writing, etc.).

I've built a multi-agent blog writing assistant in n8n (yes, I can and should do it in Foundry...). If I 'co-write' with my AI assistant, should I call that out explicitly in the post?

My 3D printer hasn’t been doing enough lately. I need to find some good Christmas themed prints.

I'm slowing moving back to my blog from having used LinkedIn's newsletter feature lately. Here's something I wrote on the topic of how Microsoft Partners need to reconsider their GTM in the world of generative AI.

Posted a story to Viva Engage today, like some kind of internal influencer. I actually quite like it, except that I'm not sure anybody will see it!

Love this idea! Let’s talk.

Expensive 24hrs ahead if you’re on Octopus Agile. 😬

Honestly, this text generation in images thing is properly useful.

Did this a while back. So much quicker and easier to manage. Also performance is way better. Plus it forces me to keep learning.

I’ve been using Midjourney for a little bit, but this is a bit of a game changer. Need to do some more experimenting!

A cartoon pirate, standing on a small island, waving a wooden sign reading “Happy Friday”.

Finally got access to DALL-E 3 in ChatGPT today. Absolutely love the ability to create text within images.

I’ve fallen into a rabbit hole of researching controlling moving lights using DMX via my computer. Because my shed clearly needs moving lights. Send help.

Obviously, I’m on all of them. 🤦🏻‍♂️
