- I built an AI office staff for trade businessesHow I built ONYX1 Office: six AI office roles for small trade firms that run on the owner's own machine, with an animated office view and scheduled routines.
- AI brain rot: what happens to engineers when the hard part becomes optionalWhat the evidence says about AI, deskilling and the next generation of engineers: cognitive debt, the apprenticeship gap, and what is worth still doing by hand.
- We may have already created a new kind of AGIThe original AGI vision imagined an artificial human. What emerged may be distributed, non-biological and organism-like. Have we already crossed a threshold?
- Building a Persistent AI Engineering AgentHow to build an agent that picks up a ticket, works across six repositories for days, survives restarts and produces reviewable pull requests. Make the work persistent, not the model.
- The Agent Never Logged OffPersistent AI agents are about to break one of security's oldest assumptions, that activity has boundaries. A case for continuous agent authority, authority leases and memory provenance.
- The Agentic SprintA human-gated operating model for autonomous software delivery.
- Human Delegation ProvenanceCredited research and open-specification work on keeping human authorisation verifiable across chains of autonomous agents.
- Autonomous LoopAn open-source engineering experiment exploring resumable, verifiable and bounded autonomous software execution.
