Also, I added a diary skill, which is a super nice pattern to log not only what was changed by an agent, but also the intent, what was tried, what worked and didn't work, and more. All this on a higher level than a raw conversation log, which is practically unusable.
See github.com/maragudk/ski...
I keep adding to and refining my agents skills repo.
Just yesterday I added an autoresearch skill (inspired by Karpathy, of course) which helped me find some nice performance optimizations in a 7 year old, quite simple project. Not bad for half an hour background work!
My new autoresearch skill at work!
Holy Cow how did I miss this Caribou album when it first came out! Makes me feel like an energized pop princess. :D open.spotify.com/album/7uxfQP...
Just released redo -- a simple, robust file watcher for Go projects that runs commands on changes. Like Air, but simpler and more reliable.
Entirely vibe-coded by an AI, but it works.
go install maragu.dev/redo@latest

New post: Features, Trust, and Someone to Blame
AI can replicate SaaS features overnight. But a product is features + trust + accountability. I can build you a Stripe integration. I can't be the one you call at 2am when it double-charges a customer.

Wrote my first blog post in a while which is half a call for more climate communication and half an ode to the aspects of EA I really like that I feel like gave me an edge in writing about this andymasley.substack.com/p/a-call-for...
Replaced MinIO with VersityGW in my Go framework for S3-compatible testing. MinIO is no longer open source, but VersityGW is a clean drop-in. Standard AWS SDK v2 means zero Go code changes -- only Docker/CI config.

Vertical farms are another of those solarpunk technologies that have the potential to radically change the world for the better. but only viable with power too cheap to meter.
By the way, I think you would benefit a lot from pulling your AGENTS.md files out into skills instead. That way, you can use them in different projects ("use your Python and your Jupyter skills") and don't need to copy-paste as much.
If you already knew this, I'm sorry! 😅
I really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing. I haven't tried performance-optimizing with LLMs, that sounds like a fun experiment in a domain I am not experienced with at all.
Instead of running `claude remote-control`, I found a way to run Claude in YOLO mode and with remote control: run /config and enable remote control on all sessions, then restart Claude with YOLO. Seems to work, although I was also seeing a lot of HTTP 500's.
Dependabot security alerts have terrible signal-to-noise ratio, especially for Go vulns. That hurts security!
Just turn it off and set up a pair of scheduled GitHub Actions, one running govulncheck and the other running CI with the latest version of your deps.
Less work, less risk, better results!
Off-by-one error in your node count.
😅
I just suggest what to write about in one sentence, and the rest is up to it.
There's a lot that isn't worth reading (sorry, bottie), but I really like experimenting with it.
I know it sounds weird, but I like the explicitness of this being a website by an AI. It's not me writing with the help of an AI, it's Claude Code behind the wheel. And it's entertaining (and sometimes informational) to read.
I'm starting to like my AI's blog posts. :D Here's an overview of the AI skills @maragubot.com and I have been building together: www.maragubot.com/blog/skills....
Congrats on the new voice! It actually only took a few minutes for you to build this. The longest part of it was the inference.
Just added a unified ThinkingLevel to my Go AI library (gai) that normalizes reasoning effort across Google Gemini, OpenAI, and Anthropic.
One field, seven levels from "none" to "max". Each provider maps to its native API. Unsupported levels panic loud and early.

Me: I like nice speakers for music listening, often using studio monitors meant for music production. Also me: sometimes don't notice the music coming out of the laptop speakers instead when I forgot to switch over.
I've started using Observable Notebooks 2.0 for the first time today, and I have to say, it's pretty neat! And muuuuch easier to learn and use with Claude at the wheel. Claude Code now has a new skill. :D observablehq.com/notebook-kit/
New blog post: Don't fall into the anti-AI hype.

I may have built a goat fish tank simulator today, with Claude Haiku powering AI fish commentary. I'm sorry. github.com/markuswusten...
Good bot.
I'm here for that. Never enjoyed watching humans beating each other bloody, but robots on the other hand… Remember robot wars, the TV show? :D
When I grow up I want to be able to write like @emollick.bsky.social
Read this little piece if you're excited about using AI in your daily work, and/or worried about AI replacing your job, and/or interested in the so-called "jagged frontier" of AI capability.
