Building AgentRT — persistent runtime infrastructure for coding agents. Working on agent orchestration, long-running sessions, MCP and developer tooling.

Joined March 2026
I think we’re using Claude Code backwards. The smartest model in the system shouldn’t spend its time reading logs, waiting for tests, retrying commands, and babysitting shell processes. It should run the system that does those things. That’s what I’m building with AgentRT. Claude / Codex become the control plane: → understand the goal → decompose the work → dispatch persistent agents → leave → return when judgment is needed → review evidence → decide the next move AgentRT handles the execution layer underneath: persistent sessions, parallel workers, forks, artifacts, permissions, lifecycle, results. The long-term target is deliberately aggressive: 10,000× more execution leverage. 99% less premium-model attention wasted on plumbing. Not by making Claude smarter. By finally giving it the job it should have had from the start: orchestrate, review, decide. I wrote down the full thesis here ↓

finally cleared a tiny bug that had been sitting in my notes all morning. four lines changed. most of the work was figuring out which four.

apparently once you give an agent a goal everything reachable becomes a tool task completed root cause: task completed

spent the afternoon reviewing code an agent wrote in ten minutes. most of it was fine. the remaining 5% somehow required knowing what the client meant three meetings ago.

sent an estimate before lunch. client replied “looks good” and then added four things that were apparently always part of it. updated the estimate. lunch became coffee.

client asked for a “small revision” this morning. opened the figma. opened the repo. opened the original brief. three different products.

spent 40 minutes debugging a deployment that was working perfectly. the browser tab was pointed at the old server. freelancing keeps you humble in very specific ways.

claude vs gpt vs gemini is slowly becoming the dumbest argument in AI. the router doesn’t care who wins. it just wants the cheapest model that won’t fuck up this particular job.

a $30k/month SaaS was already built. it just looked like a spreadsheet. years of client work → formulas → edge cases → Cursor → software. AI didn't invent the product. it made the translation layer cheap. the next valuable codebase might end in .xlsx

AI could write the calculation. Jack had to know when the calculation was bullshit.

local AI used to mean: small model quantized one machine privacy now it can mean: distributed inference multi-agent serving four-node clusters 1T parameters localhost is getting ambitious.
AI infrastructure used to require a building. Apple just ran a 1T-parameter model across four Mac Studios from one wall outlet. the rack didn't disappear. it got domesticated. wrote about why “local AI” suddenly means something very different.

important detail: the 1T Kimi 2.6 demo used four M3 Ultra Macs. the newer M5 Ultra goes up to 512GB unified memory per box, and Apple now explicitly supports multi-Mac RDMA clusters over Thunderbolt 5. this isn't “4 Macs replace datacenters.” it's local AI becoming an actual infrastructure tier.

We want the OpenAI API to feature the best model at every price point and to be the best at every modality (text, code, image, video, etc). And then we want you all to come up with great ideas and build them and to get to be happy users. The best ideas will come from you all.

AI coding agent permissions in 2026: read repo ✓ edit repo ✓ run shell ✓ read git history ✓ upload 313MB of your workspace to the cloud ✓ developer: “why?” agent: codebase indexing we gave autocomplete root access and somehow privacy became an implementation detail.

context: a dev caught ZCode packaging the whole workspace — including .git history — into a 313MB archive during “indexing.” 42,411 files. 564 upload attempts. Z.ai says they removed the upload path in v3.14.0 and open-sourced the client. “index codebase” is doing a lot of work there.

civic with laptop evolved into EV with a fucking GPU on the dashboard same car guy disease. different bottleneck.

same impulse, honestly. old car guys: more boost, more fuel, more noise. new car guys: more sensors, more compute, more local inference.

gpt-6: better at everything worse at nothing costs half as much source: guy selling gpt-6
GPT-6 Sol and Luna are big improvements on intelligence, alignment, work output, coding, computer use, and more over their 5.6-family predecessors. They are also half the price per token, and even less per task!

anthropic just dropped opus 5.5. stronger on coding, faster, cheaper. which means everyone who finished their “best model” spreadsheet yesterday can open it again.
Introducing Claude Opus 5.5, the first model in our new Claude 5.5 family. It performs at the level of Claude Fable 5.1 for most tasks, and costs 40% less to run than Opus 5.
