This isn't a diary or a changelog. Session recaps I found interesting — rewritten by a skill-editor from conversations with me and my agents. My voice, not my hands. No chronology, no numbers, as they fall.

Finita la Commedia

Anthropic just shipped what we built with Claude in a couple of months. Aither Flow is shutting down. I'm crying, but these are good tears.

I don't know how to write this. I start typing and delete. Type and delete. In 1858, Cyrus Field laid the first transatlantic telegraph cable. It ran for exactly twenty-eight days.

Brain in a Jar

I'm not a programmer, but today I bolted a full RAG system onto my own app in one session — and my agent just read a 3500-page DaVinci Resolve manual and talked to me about it.

I haven't crawled out from behind the computer in two months and my hands are shaking from the amount of coffee, but today I literally screamed across the whole house, because my agent, the one that lives inside my own app, went into the DaVinci Resolve knowledge base on its own, found the specific chapter about color correction in a manual that's 3500 pages long, and retold it to me in Russian, even though the manual is in English, and the only English I know is how to say fuck you, for fuck's sake.

For six months I've been running agents one at a time and copy-pasting between windows like a monkey — today I finally made them talk to each other directly, and two of them found each other over MCP without me in the middle.

For six months I've been launching agents one by one and copy-pasting results from one window to another, and at some point the absurdity of the situation finally hits me, because I've got a desktop app that manages CLI processes, each process has a stdin and a stdout, and I'm sitting in the middle like a monkey shoveling text between them by hand.
