I want some kind of LLM workflow tool.• Ability to manage a set of input files (Markdown or similar), plus other general-purpose context.• With real-time collaboration. (And maybe some concept of snapshots or VCS integration.)• And the ability to create/manage a inference…— Patrick Collison (@patrickc) June 6, 2026
Build agents, not pipelines
There are only two ways to use LLMs in a computer program: as part of a pipeline, or as an agent. In other words, either you express the control flow of the program in code, or you give a LLM tools and allow it to manage the control flow itself1.
Vercel Workflow
Build durable, reliable, and observable applications and AI agents with the Workflow Development Kit (WDK).
Multi-agentic Software Development is a Distributed Systems Problem (AGI can't save you from it)
Recently, I've been thinking a lot about scaffolding and languages for managing systems of LLMs coordinating with each other — new programming languages might be the ideal solution for this area.
The free tier of GitHub Codespaces permanently changed my workflows as a developer
I remember the GitHub Codespaces announcement. It sounded innovative and exciting, but I did not have a specific need for it. I enjoy…
Lody Is Now Open Source: A Shared Workspace for Teams and Coding Agents
Lody helps teams understand the context behind software decisions. We are moving Lody toward local-first, with the goal of making that context durable, portable, and ultimately controlled by the team

Lisp Against the (LL)Machine
Every Lisp, Scheme, and Lisp-adjacent project listed is a non-toy implementation that is at least somewhat active. When I first wrote this article (2026-03-12), most Lisps did not have a policy or even public stance on LLM contributions. In such cases I posted to their bug trackers or discussion lists to ask. Most maintainers kindly responded.
Adding payments to your LLM agentic workflows
This post discusses integrating the Stripe agent toolkit with large language models (LLMs) to enhance automation workflows, enabling financial services access, metered billing, and streamlined operations across agent frameworks.

Free/Open Source Software choosing to use and/or support LLM usage/AI, as well as alternatives and tips to requesting better policies or forking.

What programming language do LLMs default to when you don't tell them? A small benchmark.
truefoundry/trueforge
The open-source agent harness - the runtime layer that turns an LLM into a working agent.
One of the best examples of LLM developer tooling I've heard is from a team that supports software from the 80s-90s. Their only source of documentation is *video interviews* with retired employees. So they feed them into transcription software and get summarized searchable notes out the other end.
