What I learned building an opinionated and minimal coding agent
Lessons I learned while building my own coding agent from scratch.
Agent Skills
AI coding agents take the shortest path to done, which usually means skipping the specs, tests, and reviews that make software reliable at scale. Agent Skill...
The Gap Through Which We Praise the Machine
My current theory of agentic programming: people are amazing at adapting the tools they're given and totally underestimate the extent to which they do it, and the amount of skill we build doing that is an incidental consequence of how badly the tools are designed.

"We argue for a reorientation from autonomous to human-centered coding agents: systems designed not only to complete tasks, but to collaborate effectively with people."@ZhiruoW @jyangballin @KLierethttps://t.co/ncWiAUxwbo 1/— Rachel Thomas (@math_rachel) October 20, 2026
Can agentic coding raise the quality bar?
Five examples of using agentic coding to improve software quality, instead of delivery throughput.
Mental models for working with coding agents
Model intelligence sets the ceiling. Your workflow with the agent harness sets what you actually ship.
Claude Code, Codex and Agentic Coding #8
When I started this series, everyone was going crazy for coding agents.
Coding After Coders: The End of Computer Programming as We Know It
In the era of A.I. agents, many Silicon Valley programmers are now barely programming. Instead, what they’re doing is deeply, deeply weird.
