This is mostly a thin clintypescript wrapper around the prompts.

This could have been a SKILL

> Git itself wasn't designed for that load, and bolting AI onto platforms not built for agents is the biggest mistake of this era. We're doing a generational rebuild of the underlying infrastructure to handle agent-rate work as the default. Git itself is being reengineered for machine scale. The monolith is giving way to modern, API-first, composable services

Two big red flags here.

First git itself is distributed and built for scale.

I guesss they mean “gitlab” instead of “git”. But such a huge mistake would never go unnoticed.

Are they going to rebuilt git??

Secondly: a big rebuilt of monolith to services. Firstly there is nothing wrong with a Modulith. Secondly “rebuilt” will cause a lot of busy work without immediate value for customers.

And first of all: this announcement is done due to the stock price not AI The productivity increase with AI is inflated because they want their stock price up.

Sell Gitlab stock while you can. The leadership team has no clue what they are doing.

Sadly non engineering leaders buy into this dogma. AI is very usefull but in my experience doesn’t 10x if you don’t YOLO it.

That’s indeed the trick. Spacex “invests” in Cursor, looks good on their balance sheet.

And xAI now gets 10B of more revenue on their income statement.

Perfect financial statement boosting for the IPO which in turn will pay back these costs.

At least that’s the bet.

There are two kid of specs, formal spec, and "Product requirements / technical designs"

Technical design docs are higher level than code, they are impricise but highlight an architectural direction. Blanks need to be filled in. AI Shines here.

Formal specs == code Some language shine in being very close to a formal spec. Yes functional languages.

But lets first discuss which kind of spec we talk about.

I think nanoclaw is architecturaly much better suited to solve this problem.

We make the creator of the PR responsible for the code. Meaning they must understand it.

Also, we only allow engineers to commit (agent generated) code. Designers just come up with suggestions, engineers take it and ensure it fits our architecture.

We do have a huge codebase. We are teaching Claude Code with CLAUDE.md's and now also <feature>.spec.md (often a summary of the implementation plan).

In the end, engineers are responsible.

If you work at OpenAI, leave now while you can.

My point is: Trust the work of AI just like the work of a contracter: Check and verify, but dont micromanage.

Do you trust your employees? Do you trust a contracter? Do you trust other people?

AI is similar to a person you dont know that does work for you. Probably AI is a bit more trustworthy than a random person.

But a company, needs to let employees take ownership of their work, and trust them. Allow them to make mistakes.

Isnt AI no different?

I hardly use Google anymore. I almost always use Claude. It can do the "higher level task" I often want to accomplish when I go to google.

Claude checks multiples websites, reads them all, and answers my question.

This is quite a bad idea. You need to control the size and quality of your context by giving it one file that is optimized.

You don’t want to be burning tokens and large files will give diminishing returns as is mentioned in the Claude Code blog.

Indeed seems like Vercel completely missed the point about agents.

In Claude Code you can invoke an agent when you want as a developer and it copies the file content as context in the prompt.

The BMW neue klasse is far superior to the latest Teslas.

Both in software hardware and handing.

I think it even surpasses Chinese brands.

Is open router used a lot? I just use claude code, so this is a misrepresentation of what is actually the most popular model right?

I dont like the "impure" label. But the guts of it is right. Most software solves a business problem. Even the "pure" ones could choose to deliver value sooner with tech debt.
