I Fixed Claude Without Touching Any Code

You might have noticed that I haven't You might have noticed that I haven't been posting videos as much recently. been posting videos as much recently. been posting videos as much recently. Part of that's cuz I had a lot of fun Part of that's cuz I had a lot of fun Part of that's cuz I had a lot of fun going to open source and that definitely going to open source and that definitely going to open source and that definitely threw off my schedule for recording. But threw off my schedule for recording. But threw off my schedule for recording. But the bigger part is just that I've been the bigger part is just that I've been the bigger part is just that I've been coding way way more. Way more. I've coding way way more. Way more. I've coding way way more. Way more. I've landed dozens of PRs in just the last 3 landed dozens of PRs in just the last 3 landed dozens of PRs in just the last 3 days and many more if you're willing to days and many more if you're willing to days and many more if you're willing to go back a week or two. I have been go back a week or two. I have been go back a week or two. I have been coding more than I ever have. And more coding more than I ever have. And more coding more than I ever have. And more importantly, I've been landing more code importantly, I've been landing more code importantly, I've been landing more code than I ever have. A lot of my than I ever have. A lot of my than I ever have. A lot of my productivity wins recently can be productivity wins recently can be productivity wins recently can be credited to T3 Code. We've made a ton of credited to T3 Code. We've made a ton of credited to T3 Code. We've made a ton of improvements that make it way easier to improvements that make it way easier to improvements that make it way easier to work on lots of things for real work on lots of things for real work on lots of things for real applications in parallel. But I've also applications in parallel. But I've also applications in parallel. But I've also spent a lot more time in my editor. The spent a lot more time in my editor. The spent a lot more time in my editor. The last 2 days, I've spent more time in VS last 2 days, I've spent more time in VS last 2 days, I've spent more time in VS Code than I probably have in the last Code than I probably have in the last Code than I probably have in the last year actually writing and reading code. year actually writing and reading code. year actually writing and reading code. As long as you consider markdown files As long as you consider markdown files As long as you consider markdown files code. I know this sounds insane, but I code. I know this sounds insane, but I code. I know this sounds insane, but I actually sat down and spent maybe 6 actually sat down and spent maybe 6 actually sat down and spent maybe 6 hours just editing markdown. and then hours just editing markdown. and then hours just editing markdown. and then the next day spent another 6 to 10 hours the next day spent another 6 to 10 hours the next day spent another 6 to 10 hours testing those changes and making small testing those changes and making small testing those changes and making small adjustments afterwards. And I want to adjustments afterwards. And I want to adjustments afterwards. And I want to share how much this has benefited me. I share how much this has benefited me. I share how much this has benefited me. I am genuinely annoyed at how much these am genuinely annoyed at how much these am genuinely annoyed at how much these small changes have improved my small changes have improved my small changes have improved my development experience and I have a development experience and I have a development experience and I have a feeling they will help you out too. I feeling they will help you out too. I feeling they will help you out too. I want to cover everything that I've been want to cover everything that I've been want to cover everything that I've been doing here from how I actually make doing here from how I actually make doing here from how I actually make these changes and test them to how I these changes and test them to how I these changes and test them to how I keep these things synced across the many keep these things synced across the many keep these things synced across the many different machines I do dev work on different machines I do dev work on different machines I do dev work on because there's like five of them now to because there's like five of them now to because there's like five of them now to how I actually write these things and how I actually write these things and how I actually write these things and audit the histories I have with my audit the histories I have with my audit the histories I have with my agents to make sure I'm doing them agents to make sure I'm doing them agents to make sure I'm doing them right. But I got one more really helpful right. But I got one more really helpful right. But I got one more really helpful thing I want to show you first today's thing I want to show you first today's thing I want to show you first today's sponsor. There's a lot of parts to your sponsor. There's a lot of parts to your sponsor. There's a lot of parts to your app that used to be really easy to build

app that used to be really easy to build app that used to be really easy to build before AI that got even easier thanks to before AI that got even easier thanks to before AI that got even easier thanks to agents going and doing all the work for agents going and doing all the work for agents going and doing all the work for you. And if I'm being honest is you. And if I'm being honest is you. And if I'm being honest is definitely one of those things. So definitely one of those things. So definitely one of those things. So what's the role of an O platform like what's the role of an O platform like what's the role of an O platform like work OS if agents can just build O for work OS if agents can just build O for work OS if agents can just build O for you? There must be a reason why you? There must be a reason why you? There must be a reason why companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, Perplexity, Verscell, Replet, Cursor, Perplexity, Verscell, Replet, Cursor, Perplexity, Verscell, Replet, Bolt, and everyone else in this list are Bolt, and everyone else in this list are Bolt, and everyone else in this list are betting on what works built, right? betting on what works built, right? betting on what works built, right? Well, yeah, of course, but it's probably Well, yeah, of course, but it's probably Well, yeah, of course, but it's probably not what you think. It's not because not what you think. It's not because not what you think. It's not because setting up O is so hard. It's because setting up O is so hard. It's because setting up O is so hard. It's because your O needs to do more than it ever did your O needs to do more than it ever did your O needs to do more than it ever did before. O is how you know what users are before. O is how you know what users are before. O is how you know what users are accessing your things. O is how you set accessing your things. O is how you set accessing your things. O is how you set up an enterprise to use your service. up an enterprise to use your service. up an enterprise to use your service. authors, how agents can do things on authors, how agents can do things on authors, how agents can do things on behalf of their users. You could try to behalf of their users. You could try to behalf of their users. You could try to set up all of these pieces yourself, but set up all of these pieces yourself, but set up all of these pieces yourself, but if you're planning on diying it and you if you're planning on diying it and you if you're planning on diying it and you want to sell to real businesses, you want to sell to real businesses, you want to sell to real businesses, you should probably go look at the admin should probably go look at the admin should probably go look at the admin portal on work OS because you're going portal on work OS because you're going portal on work OS because you're going to have to go set up Octa, SAML, Duo, to have to go set up Octa, SAML, Duo, to have to go set up Octa, SAML, Duo, ADP, ADFS, and all of these other things ADP, ADFS, and all of these other things ADP, ADFS, and all of these other things that I know you don't want to set up. that I know you don't want to set up. that I know you don't want to set up. You're watching this channel. You like You're watching this channel. You like You're watching this channel. You like writing real code. Don't deal with this. writing real code. Don't deal with this. writing real code. Don't deal with this. Just use work OS. And when it comes to Just use work OS. And when it comes to Just use work OS. And when it comes to agents, work OS is helping pioneer a new agents, work OS is helping pioneer a new agents, work OS is helping pioneer a new standard to allow for your agents to off standard to allow for your agents to off standard to allow for your agents to off on a service, which is huge. They're on a service, which is huge. They're on a service, which is huge. They're partnering with a ton of companies like partnering with a ton of companies like partnering with a ton of companies like Cloudflare, Firecrawl, Resend, Monday, Cloudflare, Firecrawl, Resend, Monday, Cloudflare, Firecrawl, Resend, Monday, Kernel, and more in order to get this Kernel, and more in order to get this Kernel, and more in order to get this standard ready, and it already is. So, standard ready, and it already is. So, standard ready, and it already is. So, if you have a small app with a handful if you have a small app with a handful if you have a small app with a handful of users, no businesses, and no agents of users, no businesses, and no agents of users, no businesses, and no agents using it, you're fine rolling your own.

using it, you're fine rolling your own. using it, you're fine rolling your own. But if you want to build something But if you want to build something But if you want to build something serious, look no further than soy. OoS. serious, look no further than soy. OoS. serious, look no further than soy. OoS. So, as I mentioned before, I've been So, as I mentioned before, I've been So, as I mentioned before, I've been coding a lot more and I actually decided coding a lot more and I actually decided coding a lot more and I actually decided to sit down and take the time to to sit down and take the time to to sit down and take the time to streamline certain things that I was streamline certain things that I was streamline certain things that I was doing. Since T3 Code makes it so easy to doing. Since T3 Code makes it so easy to doing. Since T3 Code makes it so easy to work across multiple machines, I have work across multiple machines, I have work across multiple machines, I have four that I work on T3 Code itself on in four that I work on T3 Code itself on in four that I work on T3 Code itself on in T3 Code. You can literally just click T3 Code. You can literally just click T3 Code. You can literally just click and choose what box is going to run that and choose what box is going to run that and choose what box is going to run that diff. Super convenient to have lots of diff. Super convenient to have lots of diff. Super convenient to have lots of machines that you could run different machines that you could run different machines that you could run different work on depending on the needs of the work on depending on the needs of the work on depending on the needs of the work you're doing. managing everything work you're doing. managing everything work you're doing. managing everything that exists on all of these machines and that exists on all of these machines and that exists on all of these machines and making sure skills are available on the making sure skills are available on the making sure skills are available on the right ones and not available on right ones and not available on right ones and not available on different ones. Not trivial and I caught different ones. Not trivial and I caught different ones. Not trivial and I caught myself starting to make a custom system myself starting to make a custom system myself starting to make a custom system to manage all of that. And I got pretty to manage all of that. And I got pretty to manage all of that. And I got pretty far into it and it was buggy and far into it and it was buggy and far into it and it was buggy and annoying and had lots of annoying edge annoying and had lots of annoying edge annoying and had lots of annoying edge cases. So I stopped. This directory cases. So I stopped. This directory cases. So I stopped. This directory we're looking at here is my fleet repo. we're looking at here is my fleet repo. we're looking at here is my fleet repo. And my fleet repo is just a bunch of And my fleet repo is just a bunch of And my fleet repo is just a bunch of markdown files and a fork of vibe proxy markdown files and a fork of vibe proxy markdown files and a fork of vibe proxy because I'm making a lot of changes to because I'm making a lot of changes to because I'm making a lot of changes to the CLI proxy API for my specific needs. the CLI proxy API for my specific needs. the CLI proxy API for my specific needs. And in my agents and cloud MD, I And in my agents and cloud MD, I And in my agents and cloud MD, I describe what this project is and what I describe what this project is and what I describe what this project is and what I want agents to do in it. So when I do want agents to do in it. So when I do want agents to do in it. So when I do make changes to the skills I have, like make changes to the skills I have, like make changes to the skills I have, like I have my core agents and claude MD, and I have my core agents and claude MD, and I have my core agents and claude MD, and I have the skills directory that has a I have the skills directory that has a I have the skills directory that has a folder for claw only skills, a folder folder for claw only skills, a folder folder for claw only skills, a folder for my command center skills, which is for my command center skills, which is for my command center skills, which is just this one machine, the leader just this one machine, the leader just this one machine, the leader machine that controls everything else.

machine that controls everything else. machine that controls everything else. and a universal folder for the skills and a universal folder for the skills and a universal folder for the skills that I want all of my machines to have. that I want all of my machines to have. that I want all of my machines to have. I also have a little bit of metadata I also have a little bit of metadata I also have a little bit of metadata that I include here that makes it easier that I include here that makes it easier that I include here that makes it easier for my agents when I'm running them in for my agents when I'm running them in for my agents when I'm running them in this project to know which skills should this project to know which skills should this project to know which skills should appear on which machines. So, let's appear on which machines. So, let's appear on which machines. So, let's start from the top. This was my agents start from the top. This was my agents start from the top. This was my agents MD and Claude MD file that I have had on MD and Claude MD file that I have had on MD and Claude MD file that I have had on all of my computers for approximately 2 all of my computers for approximately 2 all of my computers for approximately 2 years now, give or take, maybe a bit years now, give or take, maybe a bit years now, give or take, maybe a bit less. And I hadn't touched it cuz I just less. And I hadn't touched it cuz I just less. And I hadn't touched it cuz I just didn't think it mattered that much. I didn't think it mattered that much. I didn't think it mattered that much. I also have a video I did before about also have a video I did before about also have a video I did before about deleting your cloud MD and agents MD. deleting your cloud MD and agents MD. deleting your cloud MD and agents MD. That was for project cloud and agents MD That was for project cloud and agents MD That was for project cloud and agents MD files and you're definitely writing files and you're definitely writing files and you're definitely writing those wrong. I will show you what I mean those wrong. I will show you what I mean those wrong. I will show you what I mean in a bit. Just we'll get there. Trust in a bit. Just we'll get there. Trust in a bit. Just we'll get there. Trust me. This was my old file. I had global me. This was my old file. I had global me. This was my old file. I had global defaults. First off, I called that repo defaults. First off, I called that repo defaults. First off, I called that repo specific agent MD instructions. Override specific agent MD instructions. Override specific agent MD instructions. Override these user instructions override both. these user instructions override both. these user instructions override both. TypeScript. I had one instruction. Avoid TypeScript. I had one instruction. Avoid TypeScript. I had one instruction. Avoid any unless there is no reasonably typed any unless there is no reasonably typed any unless there is no reasonably typed alternative or the user explicitly asks alternative or the user explicitly asks alternative or the user explicitly asks for it because I was tired of agents for it because I was tired of agents for it because I was tired of agents just writing any everywhere. especially just writing any everywhere. especially just writing any everywhere. especially like GPT41 like GPT41 like GPT41 and like sonnet 4 to 42. Really bad and like sonnet 4 to 42. Really bad and like sonnet 4 to 42. Really bad about all that. And then I had some about all that. And then I had some about all that. And then I had some instructions here for commands. I was instructions here for commands. I was instructions here for commands. I was really tired of agents spinning up dev really tired of agents spinning up dev really tired of agents spinning up dev servers and breaking my environment. So servers and breaking my environment. So servers and breaking my environment. So I told them to stop. I said prefer I told them to stop. I said prefer I told them to stop. I said prefer targeted verification first like type targeted verification first like type targeted verification first like type check and lint and focus tests run full check and lint and focus tests run full check and lint and focus tests run full builds yada yada. Package manager builds yada yada. Package manager builds yada yada. Package manager preferences. I said prefer bun then preferences. I said prefer bun then preferences. I said prefer bun then pnpm. Tech preferences just the things I pnpm. Tech preferences just the things I pnpm. Tech preferences just the things I want to use. Code styles. Okay, I did want to use. Code styles. Okay, I did want to use. Code styles. Okay, I did make one change here recently. I added make one change here recently. I added make one change here recently. I added this Yagy bit which did actually this Yagy bit which did actually this Yagy bit which did actually meaningfully help. I don't know where meaningfully help. I don't know where meaningfully help. I don't know where this came from. Another agent might have this came from. Another agent might have this came from. Another agent might have added this. And then the computer added this. And then the computer added this. And then the computer inventory. This was definitely added by

inventory. This was definitely added by inventory. This was definitely added by Soul when I was working on the fleet at Soul when I was working on the fleet at Soul when I was working on the fleet at some point, but this was not a great some point, but this was not a great some point, but this was not a great agent MD and I just kind of lived with agent MD and I just kind of lived with agent MD and I just kind of lived with it for a long ass time. Here is my new it for a long ass time. Here is my new it for a long ass time. Here is my new global agents MD. This is probably the global agents MD. This is probably the global agents MD. This is probably the least important of the files, but we'll least important of the files, but we'll least important of the files, but we'll go through the rest. I'm Theo. You're my go through the rest. I'm Theo. You're my go through the rest. I'm Theo. You're my agent. We'll be working together a lot, agent. We'll be working together a lot, agent. We'll be working together a lot, so I thought it'd be worth introducing so I thought it'd be worth introducing so I thought it'd be worth introducing myself. known for my YouTube channel and myself. known for my YouTube channel and myself. known for my YouTube channel and work on T3 products like T3 GG, T3 chat, work on T3 products like T3 GG, T3 chat, work on T3 products like T3 GG, T3 chat, T3 code, upload thing, ping, etc. I love T3 code, upload thing, ping, etc. I love T3 code, upload thing, ping, etc. I love to build.

This is a small piece, solving problems. This is a small piece, solving problems. This is a small piece, but I found this helps a lot just cuz my but I found this helps a lot just cuz my but I found this helps a lot just cuz my preferences were not often met by preferences were not often met by preferences were not often met by agents, especially with certain agents, especially with certain agents, especially with certain overeager models like 56 Soul and Opus overeager models like 56 Soul and Opus overeager models like 56 Soul and Opus 5. I noticed that my agents were a bit 5. I noticed that my agents were a bit 5. I noticed that my agents were a bit too uh proactive and were a little quick too uh proactive and were a little quick too uh proactive and were a little quick to start writing a lot of code when they to start writing a lot of code when they to start writing a lot of code when they didn't necessarily need that much code. didn't necessarily need that much code. didn't necessarily need that much code.

Anyways, let's look at my skills a bit. Anyways, let's look at my skills a bit. Anyways, let's look at my skills a bit. I noticed myself saying the same couple I noticed myself saying the same couple I noticed myself saying the same couple things to my agents over and over and things to my agents over and over and things to my agents over and over and they would often behave differently and they would often behave differently and they would often behave differently and they would often behave in ways that I they would often behave in ways that I they would often behave in ways that I didn't love. In particular, when I asked didn't love. In particular, when I asked didn't love. In particular, when I asked my agents to babysit a PR or to file a my agents to babysit a PR or to file a my agents to babysit a PR or to file a PR, the quality I would get out was PR, the quality I would get out was PR, the quality I would get out was mixed. So, I started originally with the mixed. So, I started originally with the mixed. So, I started originally with the babysit PR skill, which has been very babysit PR skill, which has been very babysit PR skill, which has been very helpful because a lot of my projects helpful because a lot of my projects helpful because a lot of my projects have a lot of AI code reviewers on them, have a lot of AI code reviewers on them, have a lot of AI code reviewers on them, thanks to the incredible channel thanks to the incredible channel thanks to the incredible channel sponsors we have around that. Some sponsors we have around that. Some sponsors we have around that. Some projects like T3 Code have three or four projects like T3 Code have three or four projects like T3 Code have three or four of them on the project. And the point of of them on the project. And the point of of them on the project. And the point of the babysit skill is to have my agent the babysit skill is to have my agent the babysit skill is to have my agent monitor the PR doing things like monitor the PR doing things like monitor the PR doing things like rebasing and pulling in Maine when it rebasing and pulling in Maine when it rebasing and pulling in Maine when it should so that the PR stays fresh.

should so that the PR stays fresh. should so that the PR stays fresh. Things like reading those review Things like reading those review Things like reading those review comments and addressing them when they comments and addressing them when they comments and addressing them when they come in. most importantly looping until come in. most importantly looping until come in. most importantly looping until the PR is green and everyone's approved. the PR is green and everyone's approved. the PR is green and everyone's approved. As I told my agents to babysit more, I As I told my agents to babysit more, I As I told my agents to babysit more, I noticed certain failure patterns that noticed certain failure patterns that noticed certain failure patterns that frustrated me. Little things like the frustrated me. Little things like the frustrated me. Little things like the agent commenting through my account but agent commenting through my account but agent commenting through my account but not indicating it was an agent to big not indicating it was an agent to big not indicating it was an agent to big things like the PR getting three times things like the PR getting three times things like the PR getting three times larger than it should have been because larger than it should have been because larger than it should have been because it would address every single comment it would address every single comment it would address every single comment like it was missionritical even for like it was missionritical even for like it was missionritical even for things that didn't matter as much. So, things that didn't matter as much. So, things that didn't matter as much. So, the point of this was to fix those the point of this was to fix those the point of this was to fix those things. All the repos we work in have things. All the repos we work in have things. All the repos we work in have various AI review bots. They're helpful various AI review bots.

Screenshots and videos help as helpful. Screenshots and videos help as helpful. Screenshots and videos help as well. I have a custom file upload skill well. I have a custom file upload skill well. I have a custom file upload skill that I built for my agents that allows that I built for my agents that allows that I built for my agents that allows them to upload arbitrary files to R2 them to upload arbitrary files to R2 them to upload arbitrary files to R2 with a public URL they can use to embed with a public URL they can use to embed with a public URL they can use to embed things in PRs because I noticed them things in PRs because I noticed them things in PRs because I noticed them doing nasty [ __ ] to try and get a video doing nasty [ __ ] to try and get a video doing nasty [ __ ] to try and get a video in a PR. This solved that. This is in a PR. This solved that. This is in a PR. This solved that. This is probably the most important line in probably the most important line in probably the most important line in here, though. Do not let review feedback here, though. Do not let review feedback here, though. Do not let review feedback expand the PR beyond the user's original expand the PR beyond the user's original expand the PR beyond the user's original goal. Address real shortcomings, but goal. Address real shortcomings, but goal. Address real shortcomings, but avoid scope creep. This skill has been avoid scope creep. This skill has been avoid scope creep. This skill has been great. One of the most important details great. One of the most important details great. One of the most important details is kind of hidden now. Let me do that so is kind of hidden now. Let me do that so is kind of hidden now. Let me do that so you can see it better. The description. you can see it better. The description. you can see it better. The description. This is a thing that most people get This is a thing that most people get This is a thing that most people get wrong and agents get even more wrong. wrong and agents get even more wrong. wrong and agents get even more wrong. Your description should not describe Your description should not describe Your description should not describe necessarily what the skill does because necessarily what the skill does because necessarily what the skill does because the description is always inserted even the description is always inserted even the description is always inserted even if the skill is not being used. The if the skill is not being used. The if the skill is not being used. The point of the description is to let the point of the description is to let the point of the description is to let the model know when it should pull in the model know when it should pull in the model know when it should pull in the skill. So, you should treat the skill. So, you should treat the skill. So, you should treat the description less like an elaborate description less like an elaborate description less like an elaborate explanation of all the things the skill explanation of all the things the skill explanation of all the things the skill does. Hell, I've seen skills where the does. Hell, I've seen skills where the does. Hell, I've seen skills where the description gives you everything that description gives you everything that description gives you everything that you need, and you don't even need to use you need, and you don't even need to use you need, and you don't even need to use the skill because the description has the skill because the description has the skill because the description has all the details. The description should all the details. The description should all the details. The description should have the magic keywords to tell the have the magic keywords to tell the have the magic keywords to tell the model when to pull the thing in. So here model when to pull the thing in. So here model when to pull the thing in. So here I could probably delete this monitor a I could probably delete this monitor a I could probably delete this monitor a pull request through review in CI pull request through review in CI pull request through review in CI entirely and have it just be use when entirely and have it just be use when entirely and have it just be use when the user asks to monitor, watch, or the user asks to monitor, watch, or the user asks to monitor, watch, or babysit a PR. The point of this skill is babysit a PR. The point of this skill is babysit a PR. The point of this skill is to be pulled in and give the model the to be pulled in and give the model the to be pulled in and give the model the context when it needs these things. I context when it needs these things. I context when it needs these things. I know it's unintuitive because it's know it's unintuitive because it's know it's unintuitive because it's called a description, but you really called a description, but you really called a description, but you really should think of the description of a should think of the description of a should think of the description of a skill as the trigger keywords rather

skill as the trigger keywords rather skill as the trigger keywords rather than as an actual description. As such, than as an actual description. As such, than as an actual description. As such, you can guess how my file PR skill is you can guess how my file PR skill is you can guess how my file PR skill is formatted. File a concise pull request. formatted. File a concise pull request. formatted. File a concise pull request. Use when the user asks to file, open, or Use when the user asks to file, open, or Use when the user asks to file, open, or create a PR. Originally, I had the file create a PR. Originally, I had the file create a PR. Originally, I had the file PR and babysit PR skills as one skill, PR and babysit PR skills as one skill, PR and babysit PR skills as one skill, but I noticed once I added the keywords but I noticed once I added the keywords but I noticed once I added the keywords that it was good enough at triggering that it was good enough at triggering that it was good enough at triggering that I didn't really need that anymore. that I didn't really need that anymore. that I didn't really need that anymore. So, I made them separate. Also, I often So, I made them separate. Also, I often So, I made them separate. Also, I often want one and not the other. So, having want one and not the other. So, having want one and not the other. So, having them separate was really nice. So, now I them separate was really nice. So, now I them separate was really nice. So, now I have the file PR skill that triggers have the file PR skill that triggers have the file PR skill that triggers whenever a user requests filing, whenever a user requests filing, whenever a user requests filing, opening, or creating PRs. This skill has opening, or creating PRs. This skill has opening, or creating PRs. This skill has been a night and day difference to my been a night and day difference to my been a night and day difference to my quality of life. Not because my agents quality of life. Not because my agents quality of life. Not because my agents couldn't file PRs before. They could, couldn't file PRs before. They could, couldn't file PRs before. They could, but my agents would often file PRs in but my agents would often file PRs in but my agents would often file PRs in ways that I [ __ ] hated. And now I ways that I [ __ ] hated. And now I ways that I [ __ ] hated. And now I don't hate it as much. Here's an example don't hate it as much. Here's an example don't hate it as much. Here's an example of a PR that was filed by one of my of a PR that was filed by one of my of a PR that was filed by one of my agents before I made these changes. The agents before I made these changes. The agents before I made these changes. The title is fix server parse CLI version in title is fix server parse CLI version in title is fix server parse CLI version in update pre-flight. Summary: Verified update pre-flight. Summary: Verified update pre-flight. Summary: Verified pinned runtimes against the CLI's actual pinned runtimes against the CLI's actual pinned runtimes against the CLI's actual T3 version output. Make the T3 version output. Make the T3 version output. Make the self-updating process runner fake emit self-updating process runner fake emit self-updating process runner fake emit the same format and keep wrong version the same format and keep wrong version the same format and keep wrong version coverage realistic. Can any of you guys coverage realistic. Can any of you guys coverage realistic. Can any of you guys say in plain language what the point of say in plain language what the point of say in plain language what the point of this PR was? I know I can't. I happen to this PR was? I know I can't. I happen to this PR was? I know I can't. I happen to remember what I did here. The problem remember what I did here. The problem remember what I did here. The problem was that I was getting errors in the was that I was getting errors in the was that I was getting errors in the little log in T3 code that showed when little log in T3 code that showed when little log in T3 code that showed when there was drift between the version on there was drift between the version on there was drift between the version on your machine and the version on the your machine and the version on the your machine and the version on the remote machine. And this is the PR that remote machine. And this is the PR that remote machine. And this is the PR that was made to fix that. A lot of my PR was made to fix that. A lot of my PR was made to fix that. A lot of my PR descriptions looked like this. And the descriptions looked like this. And the descriptions looked like this. And the titles aren't helpful either. And that titles aren't helpful either. And that titles aren't helpful either. And that was annoying me. So, I gave direct was annoying me. So, I gave direct was annoying me. So, I gave direct concrete examples to my agent here.

concrete examples to my agent here. concrete examples to my agent here. Before filing, check whether a PR for Before filing, check whether a PR for Before filing, check whether a PR for this branch already exists. Review the this branch already exists. Review the this branch already exists. Review the diff locally against origin main to make diff locally against origin main to make diff locally against origin main to make sure its contents match the goal. PR sure its contents match the goal. PR sure its contents match the goal. PR titles usually become commit messages, titles usually become commit messages, titles usually become commit messages, so follow the repository's title so follow the repository's title so follow the repository's title conventions. Look at recently merged PRs conventions. Look at recently merged PRs conventions. Look at recently merged PRs and get histories. For example, prefer a and get histories. For example, prefer a and get histories. For example, prefer a concise human readable title that concise human readable title that concise human readable title that explains why the changes matter. Bad explains why the changes matter. Bad explains why the changes matter. Bad example here, PF server, negotiate per example here, PF server, negotiate per example here, PF server, negotiate per message deflate on the websocket. Good message deflate on the websocket. Good message deflate on the websocket. Good example, PF server. Cut websocket frame example, PF server. Cut websocket frame example, PF server. Cut websocket frame size by 70% with gzipping. This was a size by 70% with gzipping. This was a size by 70% with gzipping. This was a real example that I did because I had a real example that I did because I had a real example that I did because I had a really awful title I hated from one of really awful title I hated from one of really awful title I hated from one of my agents and gave it this example. my agents and gave it this example. my agents and gave it this example. Agents are really good at bad and good Agents are really good at bad and good Agents are really good at bad and good examples. So if you notice your agents examples. So if you notice your agents examples. So if you notice your agents doing something poorly that you have to doing something poorly that you have to doing something poorly that you have to go adjust, put one or two of those go adjust, put one or two of those go adjust, put one or two of those inside of a skill or your globals and inside of a skill or your globals and inside of a skill or your globals and now the agent knows what bad and good is now the agent knows what bad and good is now the agent knows what bad and good is to you and you've seated its weights to you and you've seated its weights to you and you've seated its weights with the things that matter to you. with the things that matter to you. with the things that matter to you. Another important chunk that I have Another important chunk that I have Another important chunk that I have here, this is probably the one that's here, this is probably the one that's here, this is probably the one that's changed my life the most, as silly as it changed my life the most, as silly as it changed my life the most, as silly as it is. Open the description with a simple is. Open the description with a simple is. Open the description with a simple explanation of the problem based on the explanation of the problem based on the explanation of the problem based on the user's original prompt. Then briefly user's original prompt. Then briefly user's original prompt. Then briefly explain the solution. Do not lead with explain the solution. Do not lead with explain the solution. Do not lead with an implementation inventory. So I gave a an implementation inventory. So I gave a an implementation inventory. So I gave a bad example here. Removed implicit bad example here. Removed implicit bad example here. Removed implicit workspace carryover from every new workspace carryover from every new workspace carryover from every new thread entry point. New threads inherit thread entry point. New threads inherit thread entry point. New threads inherit only the project from context branch only the project from context branch only the project from context branch work yada yada. Just nonsense. No one's work yada yada. Just nonsense. No one's work yada yada. Just nonsense. No one's going to read this. Good example. My new going to read this. Good example. My new going to read this. Good example. My new work tree default was ignored when work tree default was ignored when work tree default was ignored when starting new threads on existing work starting new threads on existing work starting new threads on existing work trees. Super unintuitive. Now your trees. Super unintuitive. Now your trees. Super unintuitive. Now your preferences always apply. So much preferences always apply. So much preferences always apply. So much better. I also specifically told it to better. I also specifically told it to better. I also specifically told it to stop opening draft PRs because Codex stop opening draft PRs because Codex stop opening draft PRs because Codex loves opening draft PRs that don't get

loves opening draft PRs that don't get loves opening draft PRs that don't get reviews. I told it to open a real PR reviews. I told it to open a real PR reviews. I told it to open a real PR rather than a draft. So review bots run. rather than a draft. So review bots run. rather than a draft. So review bots run. If the user also has to babysit it, If the user also has to babysit it, If the user also has to babysit it, continue with the babysit PR skill. I continue with the babysit PR skill. I continue with the babysit PR skill. I probably don't even need this anymore probably don't even need this anymore probably don't even need this anymore because it pulls the skills incorrectly. because it pulls the skills incorrectly. because it pulls the skills incorrectly. And you can see the difference if we And you can see the difference if we And you can see the difference if we scroll up a bit and click any of my new scroll up a bit and click any of my new scroll up a bit and click any of my new PRs. Here's a simple example. Fix for PRs. Here's a simple example. Fix for PRs. Here's a simple example. Fix for release. Skip scripts during versell release. Skip scripts during versell release. Skip scripts during versell installs. The hosted web deployment runs installs. The hosted web deployment runs installs. The hosted web deployment runs its filtered versell install command its filtered versell install command its filtered versell install command twice. Both installs invoke the root twice. Both installs invoke the root twice. Both installs invoke the root prepare life cycle. So the persistent prepare life cycle. So the persistent prepare life cycle. So the persistent build cache accumulated affect TSGO build cache accumulated affect TSGO build cache accumulated affect TSGO backups until it hit the 100 file limit backups until it hit the 100 file limit backups until it hit the 100 file limit in blocked releases. So now we're in blocked releases. So now we're in blocked releases. So now we're running with ignore scripts. That's a running with ignore scripts. That's a running with ignore scripts. That's a lot clearer. I also have at the bottom lot clearer. I also have at the bottom lot clearer. I also have at the bottom here in my example description. Maybe I here in my example description. Maybe I here in my example description. Maybe I don't have it here, but I have it in my don't have it here, but I have it in my don't have it here, but I have it in my global. I think I have it in my global. global. I think I have it in my global. global. I think I have it in my global. I do. I should add it here as well. add I do. I should add it here as well. add I do. I should add it here as well. add a blurb to the end of the PR description a blurb to the end of the PR description a blurb to the end of the PR description about what model and harness is making about what model and harness is making about what model and harness is making the changes. This has been really the changes. This has been really the changes. This has been really helpful for keeping track of what I'm helpful for keeping track of what I'm helpful for keeping track of what I'm using for different work. Sadly, Codex using for different work. Sadly, Codex using for different work. Sadly, Codex often doesn't know what model it's often doesn't know what model it's often doesn't know what model it's using. I've been yelling at the Codex using. I've been yelling at the Codex using. I've been yelling at the Codex team for a bit about this. Clot always team for a bit about this. Clot always team for a bit about this. Clot always knows and most other harnesses know as knows and most other harnesses know as knows and most other harnesses know as well. Codeex does not include the model well. Codeex does not include the model well. Codeex does not include the model slug inside of the system prompt, which slug inside of the system prompt, which slug inside of the system prompt, which is dumb of them. So, sometimes it'll say is dumb of them. So, sometimes it'll say is dumb of them. So, sometimes it'll say that 54 filed it when it didn't, which that 54 filed it when it didn't, which that 54 filed it when it didn't, which is annoying, but yeah, small thing.

is annoying, but yeah, small thing. is annoying, but yeah, small thing. Helps a lot to like get this information Helps a lot to like get this information Helps a lot to like get this information in my PRs. I've been really happy with in my PRs. I've been really happy with in my PRs. I've been really happy with this change, much more so than I this change, much more so than I this change, much more so than I expected. Another simple example, I had expected. Another simple example, I had expected. Another simple example, I had a bug in stashed prompts where they were a bug in stashed prompts where they were a bug in stashed prompts where they were being stashed per harness, which didn't being stashed per harness, which didn't being stashed per harness, which didn't make sense because if I stashed a prompt make sense because if I stashed a prompt make sense because if I stashed a prompt for codex, I want to go throw it in for codex, I want to go throw it in for codex, I want to go throw it in claude. It annoyed me. I told it that claude. It annoyed me. I told it that claude. It annoyed me. I told it that told it needs fixing and it described it told it needs fixing and it described it told it needs fixing and it described it accordingly. Stashing a prompt, accordingly. Stashing a prompt, accordingly. Stashing a prompt, switching providers, and restoring it switching providers, and restoring it switching providers, and restoring it didn't work. The stash was bucketed per didn't work. The stash was bucketed per didn't work. The stash was bucketed per provider instance. So after a switch, provider instance. So after a switch, provider instance. So after a switch, the badge disappeared and the stash the badge disappeared and the stash the badge disappeared and the stash looked lost. Restoring also dragged the looked lost. Restoring also dragged the looked lost. Restoring also dragged the stash model selection back, defeating stash model selection back, defeating stash model selection back, defeating the point of moving a prompt to a the point of moving a prompt to a the point of moving a prompt to a different provider. This is a great different provider. This is a great different provider. This is a great description of why I cared enough to do description of why I cared enough to do description of why I cared enough to do this thing. Super nice. Everything so this thing. Super nice. Everything so this thing. Super nice. Everything so far has been focused on my global skills far has been focused on my global skills far has been focused on my global skills and my global agents and cloud MD files, and my global agents and cloud MD files, and my global agents and cloud MD files, but there's a lot more to this than but there's a lot more to this than but there's a lot more to this than that. I want to show how I tuned the that. I want to show how I tuned the that. I want to show how I tuned the files that we have in T3 code itself for files that we have in T3 code itself for files that we have in T3 code itself for people contributing to T3 Code. This people contributing to T3 Code. This people contributing to T3 Code. This isn't for T3 Code users. It's for T3 isn't for T3 Code users. It's for T3 isn't for T3 Code users. It's for T3 Code contributors. It's much more Code contributors. It's much more Code contributors. It's much more specific to the code base, which means specific to the code base, which means specific to the code base, which means it would be helpful to figure out how I it would be helpful to figure out how I it would be helpful to figure out how I discovered these things in the first discovered these things in the first discovered these things in the first place. This was not a great example place. This was not a great example place. This was not a great example because I actually explicitly told the because I actually explicitly told the because I actually explicitly told the agent to not make the PR, but instead agent to not make the PR, but instead agent to not make the PR, but instead generate the one-click link so I could generate the one-click link so I could generate the one-click link so I could make the PR and then I opened it and make the PR and then I opened it and make the PR and then I opened it and went and tidied all of these things up.

went and tidied all of these things up. went and tidied all of these things up. Yeah, from here down is AI slop. I did Yeah, from here down is AI slop. I did Yeah, from here down is AI slop. I did include that. This is the real thread I include that. This is the real thread I include that. This is the real thread I used to do a lot of the changes that I'm used to do a lot of the changes that I'm used to do a lot of the changes that I'm talking about here. To be clear, when talking about here. To be clear, when talking about here. To be clear, when you look at the generated agents MD and you look at the generated agents MD and you look at the generated agents MD and Claude MD, don't assume I used those Claude MD, don't assume I used those Claude MD, don't assume I used those because I didn't. I was using them because I didn't. I was using them because I didn't. I was using them largely as a reference point to get largely as a reference point to get largely as a reference point to get things tuned how I wanted. I opened with things tuned how I wanted. I opened with things tuned how I wanted. I opened with a relatively wordy prompt on what my a relatively wordy prompt on what my a relatively wordy prompt on what my goals were here that I want to rethink goals were here that I want to rethink goals were here that I want to rethink the agents MD and Cloud MD for T3 code. the agents MD and Cloud MD for T3 code. the agents MD and Cloud MD for T3 code. I want them to better match the tone of I want them to better match the tone of I want them to better match the tone of my global agents in CloudMD. I also want my global agents in CloudMD. I also want my global agents in CloudMD. I also want to better represent the project and how to better represent the project and how to better represent the project and how agents should work. Random additional agents should work. Random additional agents should work. Random additional things I want to touch on. These are things I want to touch on. These are things I want to touch on. These are things I knew had been happening a lot things I knew had been happening a lot things I knew had been happening a lot that were annoying me. And also I wanted that were annoying me. And also I wanted that were annoying me. And also I wanted to pull in my glossery from my lake bed to pull in my glossery from my lake bed to pull in my glossery from my lake bed agents MD because I found that that has agents MD because I found that that has agents MD because I found that that has been super super helpful for how I been super super helpful for how I been super super helpful for how I communicate with the agent. I also said communicate with the agent. I also said communicate with the agent. I also said to match the tone from that file write to match the tone from that file write to match the tone from that file write up two separate drafts for an up two separate drafts for an up two separate drafts for an alternative cloudmd based on what I alternative cloudmd based on what I alternative cloudmd based on what I shared here and it wrote them and I shared here and it wrote them and I shared here and it wrote them and I didn't like them much. There were parts didn't like them much. There were parts didn't like them much. There were parts there that were good but it wasn't there that were good but it wasn't there that were good but it wasn't great. But I asked to do something that great. But I asked to do something that great. But I asked to do something that ended up being significantly more ended up being significantly more ended up being significantly more helpful. Can you look through my history helpful. Can you look through my history helpful. Can you look through my history with models like Fable, Opus, and GPT56 with models like Fable, Opus, and GPT56 with models like Fable, Opus, and GPT56 Soul in Cloud Code and Codeex on this Soul in Cloud Code and Codeex on this Soul in Cloud Code and Codeex on this machine to see what the most common machine to see what the most common machine to see what the most common mistakes are? Want to make sure we mistakes are? Want to make sure we mistakes are? Want to make sure we optimize to steer away from those. I optimize to steer away from those. I optimize to steer away from those. I want you to break down the most common want you to break down the most common want you to break down the most common failure modes and how often each model failure modes and how often each model failure modes and how often each model hits them. This was fun because not only hits them. This was fun because not only hits them. This was fun because not only did it catch specific failures that I did it catch specific failures that I did it catch specific failures that I cared about, it also categorized them by cared about, it also categorized them by cared about, it also categorized them by how often they happened with each model how often they happened with each model how often they happened with each model and harness. I noticed Opus 5 was and harness. I noticed Opus 5 was and harness. I noticed Opus 5 was aggressively killing the wrong process.

aggressively killing the wrong process. aggressively killing the wrong process. Often killing the T3 code instance that Often killing the T3 code instance that Often killing the T3 code instance that it was running in and it now is it was running in and it now is it was running in and it now is confirmed with real numbers. Even though confirmed with real numbers. Even though confirmed with real numbers. Even though I only used it for 2 days, it had done I only used it for 2 days, it had done I only used it for 2 days, it had done significantly more attempts to kill significantly more attempts to kill significantly more attempts to kill processes than Fable had in all the time processes than Fable had in all the time processes than Fable had in all the time I use it. Here you can see all the times I use it. Here you can see all the times I use it. Here you can see all the times user data were touched. Thankfully, it user data were touched. Thankfully, it user data were touched. Thankfully, it was almost all readonly inspection, but was almost all readonly inspection, but was almost all readonly inspection, but we should still audit it further. PR we should still audit it further. PR we should still audit it further. PR hygiene. We noticed soul see again 40% hygiene. We noticed soul see again 40% hygiene. We noticed soul see again 40% of the time it filed PRs, it was filing of the time it filed PRs, it was filing of the time it filed PRs, it was filing drafts. Other models were much less drafts. Other models were much less drafts. Other models were much less likely to file a draft. A lot of likely to file a draft. A lot of likely to file a draft. A lot of repowide check failures where it was repowide check failures where it was repowide check failures where it was running things it didn't need to, taking running things it didn't need to, taking running things it didn't need to, taking way more resource and build time on my way more resource and build time on my way more resource and build time on my machine. Good call out that it had here. machine. Good call out that it had here. machine. Good call out that it had here. And it also tracked the bash error rates And it also tracked the bash error rates And it also tracked the bash error rates for the different agents that were for the different agents that were for the different agents that were working here as well. I will say that I working here as well. I will say that I working here as well. I will say that I did all of this with Opus because I was did all of this with Opus because I was did all of this with Opus because I was out of Fable at the time and it didn't out of Fable at the time and it didn't out of Fable at the time and it didn't do quite as good of a job auditing as do quite as good of a job auditing as do quite as good of a job auditing as both Fable and 56 did. I did have all of both Fable and 56 did. I did have all of both Fable and 56 did. I did have all of them do audits looking for various them do audits looking for various them do audits looking for various failures and try to collect as many of failures and try to collect as many of failures and try to collect as many of them as possible so that I could use them as possible so that I could use them as possible so that I could use that as a reference point. As I that as a reference point. As I that as a reference point. As I mentioned, I had a lot of agents do this mentioned, I had a lot of agents do this mentioned, I had a lot of agents do this audit with me and find all the weird audit with me and find all the weird audit with me and find all the weird failures that happened across all of my failures that happened across all of my failures that happened across all of my real runs on my real machines. I forgot real runs on my real machines. I forgot real runs on my real machines. I forgot which model made this one, but I really, which model made this one, but I really, which model made this one, but I really, really liked it.

really liked it. really liked it. This was measuring corrections per 100 This was measuring corrections per 100 This was measuring corrections per 100 user messages per model. So, I would user messages per model. So, I would user messages per model. So, I would often tell Fable it implemented things often tell Fable it implemented things often tell Fable it implemented things wrong, but that's also because I use wrong, but that's also because I use wrong, but that's also because I use Fable to do the hardest stuff, and I Fable to do the hardest stuff, and I Fable to do the hardest stuff, and I often give Fable less context going in. often give Fable less context going in. often give Fable less context going in. I also apparently tell Opus 5 that its I also apparently tell Opus 5 that its I also apparently tell Opus 5 that its results look wrong way more often. It results look wrong way more often. It results look wrong way more often. It looks like Soul's really good here, but looks like Soul's really good here, but looks like Soul's really good here, but remember, I don't use GPT models for UI remember, I don't use GPT models for UI remember, I don't use GPT models for UI stuff. So, if I say it looks wrong, I'm stuff. So, if I say it looks wrong, I'm stuff. So, if I say it looks wrong, I'm probably just going to move off of Soul. probably just going to move off of Soul. probably just going to move off of Soul. For process, I actually had more For process, I actually had more For process, I actually had more problems with Fable than other models problems with Fable than other models problems with Fable than other models for like leaving branches stale, not for like leaving branches stale, not for like leaving branches stale, not fixing CI, stuff like that. Opus 48 fixing CI, stuff like that. Opus 48 fixing CI, stuff like that. Opus 48 would misread what I was asking for very would misread what I was asking for very would misread what I was asking for very often. Tool misuse. Opus was the worst often. Tool misuse. Opus was the worst often. Tool misuse. Opus was the worst by far. Opus 5 was misusing [ __ ] all the by far. Opus 5 was misusing [ __ ] all the by far. Opus 5 was misusing [ __ ] all the time and breaking my environment. time and breaking my environment. time and breaking my environment. Overbuild opus 5 and opus 48 were the Overbuild opus 5 and opus 48 were the Overbuild opus 5 and opus 48 were the most aggressive with. Apparently fable most aggressive with. Apparently fable most aggressive with. Apparently fable slightly worse than soul overall, but slightly worse than soul overall, but slightly worse than soul overall, but that's a universal problem. Stopping that's a universal problem. Stopping that's a universal problem. Stopping early was also a universal problem. No early was also a universal problem. No early was also a universal problem. No verify was pretty universal. Regression verify was pretty universal. Regression verify was pretty universal. Regression was rare but expensive when it happened. was rare but expensive when it happened. was rare but expensive when it happened. And only soul was doing unasked edits And only soul was doing unasked edits And only soul was doing unasked edits that I had to tell it like, "Hey, don't that I had to tell it like, "Hey, don't that I had to tell it like, "Hey, don't edit that. undo that. And then it edit that. undo that. And then it edit that. undo that. And then it proposed a bunch of changes to my global proposed a bunch of changes to my global proposed a bunch of changes to my global files that it thought made sense. And I files that it thought made sense. And I files that it thought made sense. And I sat and read through this and this one sat and read through this and this one sat and read through this and this one and this one and even this one. The and this one and even this one. The and this one and even this one. The point of doing all of this is that I point of doing all of this is that I point of doing all of this is that I wanted to get a better feel for all of wanted to get a better feel for all of wanted to get a better feel for all of the things that went right and wrong in the things that went right and wrong in the things that went right and wrong in my history. Some of this is just vibing my history. Some of this is just vibing my history. Some of this is just vibing it out in gut feel based on my own uses it out in gut feel based on my own uses it out in gut feel based on my own uses and my own work in these projects, but

and my own work in these projects, but and my own work in these projects, but it's also a lot easier to go through it's also a lot easier to go through it's also a lot easier to go through your history with an agent or dozens of your history with an agent or dozens of your history with an agent or dozens of them in this case than it is to read them in this case than it is to read them in this case than it is to read through all of that yourself and really through all of that yourself and really through all of that yourself and really think about it. And getting stats on think about it. And getting stats on think about it. And getting stats on what the failure cases are and getting what the failure cases are and getting what the failure cases are and getting your agents to give you the feedback on your agents to give you the feedback on your agents to give you the feedback on what happened is super helpful. And if what happened is super helpful. And if what happened is super helpful. And if you notice certain threads that just you notice certain threads that just you notice certain threads that just didn't go how you want, you should work didn't go how you want, you should work didn't go how you want, you should work with the agent to fix that. You should with the agent to fix that. You should with the agent to fix that. You should ask it why did you make this decision? ask it why did you make this decision? ask it why did you make this decision? What gave you indication that this was What gave you indication that this was What gave you indication that this was the right direction? It might be the right direction? It might be the right direction? It might be something that's outdated in your cloud something that's outdated in your cloud something that's outdated in your cloud MD or agents MD. It might be something MD or agents MD. It might be something MD or agents MD. It might be something that it read incorrectly early and then that it read incorrectly early and then that it read incorrectly early and then followed along once it was in context followed along once it was in context followed along once it was in context that didn't actually make sense. Think that didn't actually make sense. Think that didn't actually make sense. Think about these failure modes, notice them about these failure modes, notice them about these failure modes, notice them when they happen, and ask the agent when they happen, and ask the agent when they happen, and ask the agent questions. Another really common one is questions. Another really common one is questions. Another really common one is if you ask for what you think will be a if you ask for what you think will be a if you ask for what you think will be a simple change and the agent takes 30 simple change and the agent takes 30 simple change and the agent takes 30 minutes or more when you thought it minutes or more when you thought it minutes or more when you thought it would take five. Ask the agent why it would take five. Ask the agent why it would take five. Ask the agent why it took longer. What did it spend its time took longer. What did it spend its time took longer. What did it spend its time on? Ask it to categorize all of the tool on? Ask it to categorize all of the tool on? Ask it to categorize all of the tool calls it made into different groups and calls it made into different groups and calls it made into different groups and try to determine which ones were and try to determine which ones were and try to determine which ones were and weren't helpful so that you can make weren't helpful so that you can make weren't helpful so that you can make adjustments to help the model make adjustments to help the model make adjustments to help the model make better decisions in the future. And I better decisions in the future. And I better decisions in the future. And I guess with that there's no better time guess with that there's no better time guess with that there's no better time than now to dive into our agents MD than now to dive into our agents MD than now to dive into our agents MD file. Another very important thing is file. Another very important thing is file. Another very important thing is that your agent MD should be incredibly that your agent MD should be incredibly that your agent MD should be incredibly different from your readme MD. The point different from your readme MD. The point different from your readme MD. The point of a readme is context on the project of a readme is context on the project of a readme is context on the project and what it is that is useful for humans and what it is that is useful for humans and what it is that is useful for humans and agents that are trying to decide if and agents that are trying to decide if and agents that are trying to decide if they want to pull in this code. The they want to pull in this code. The they want to pull in this code. The point of the agent and cloudmd files is point of the agent and cloudmd files is point of the agent and cloudmd files is to tell the agent how to change things to tell the agent how to change things to tell the agent how to change things in the codebase and what it should know

in the codebase and what it should know in the codebase and what it should know before it makes those changes. So yes, before it makes those changes. So yes, before it makes those changes. So yes, there are parts of this that should be there are parts of this that should be there are parts of this that should be descriptions of the project, but the descriptions of the project, but the descriptions of the project, but the majority of what's going on here really majority of what's going on here really majority of what's going on here really should be focused on how your agents should be focused on how your agents should be focused on how your agents will work in the project. While there is will work in the project. While there is will work in the project. While there is a lot of overlap between developers a lot of overlap between developers a lot of overlap between developers contributing to a project and agents contributing to a project and agents contributing to a project and agents doing those contributions, this file doing those contributions, this file doing those contributions, this file really should not be written for devs. really should not be written for devs. really should not be written for devs. It should be written for agents to help It should be written for agents to help It should be written for agents to help the agent interact with the dev better. the agent interact with the dev better. the agent interact with the dev better. And with that said, one of the most And with that said, one of the most And with that said, one of the most important details you can get right in important details you can get right in important details you can get right in these is a glossery. I like writing these is a glossery. I like writing these is a glossery. I like writing these not just so the agent understands these not just so the agent understands these not just so the agent understands me because it's usually pretty good at me because it's usually pretty good at me because it's usually pretty good at that. It can infer what I mean when I that. It can infer what I mean when I that. It can infer what I mean when I talk about a thing that I want it to do. talk about a thing that I want it to do. talk about a thing that I want it to do. The glossery can help it understand what The glossery can help it understand what The glossery can help it understand what I'm saying a little bit, but the I'm saying a little bit, but the I'm saying a little bit, but the glossery is much more helpful for the glossery is much more helpful for the glossery is much more helpful for the agent to describe things to me the way I agent to describe things to me the way I agent to describe things to me the way I want it to. And a lot of these base want it to. And a lot of these base want it to. And a lot of these base terms are really simple. Most of them terms are really simple. Most of them terms are really simple. Most of them are terms that it probably already knew. are terms that it probably already knew. are terms that it probably already knew. But when you give it this type of really But when you give it this type of really But when you give it this type of really simple language to describe things with, simple language to describe things with, simple language to describe things with, it becomes much easier to talk to the it becomes much easier to talk to the it becomes much easier to talk to the agent because it knows how you're agent because it knows how you're agent because it knows how you're thinking and how you and your team are thinking and how you and your team are thinking and how you and your team are working. So our glossery is really working. So our glossery is really working. So our glossery is really simple here. The first word defined in simple here. The first word defined in simple here. The first word defined in the glossery is you, which means the the glossery is you, which means the the glossery is you, which means the agent reading this file and changing T3 agent reading this file and changing T3 agent reading this file and changing T3 code. We, us, and maintainers mean Theo, code. We, us, and maintainers mean Theo, code. We, us, and maintainers mean Theo, Julius, and the people building T3 code.

Julius, and the people building T3 code. Julius, and the people building T3 code. These are who you're talking to. Now These are who you're talking to. Now These are who you're talking to. Now user means the person using T3 code to user means the person using T3 code to user means the person using T3 code to direct coding agents and agent means the direct coding agents and agent means the direct coding agents and agent means the coding agent a user runs inside of T3 coding agent a user runs inside of T3 coding agent a user runs inside of T3 code depending on context. This may also code depending on context. This may also code depending on context. This may also include you. Provider means the agent include you. Provider means the agent include you. Provider means the agent runtime or harness that T3 code talks to runtime or harness that T3 code talks to runtime or harness that T3 code talks to such as codecs, claude, cursor or open such as codecs, claude, cursor or open such as codecs, claude, cursor or open code. Client means the web, desktop and code. Client means the web, desktop and code. Client means the web, desktop and mobile UIs. Environment means one mobile UIs. Environment means one mobile UIs. Environment means one running T3 server and the machine file running T3 server and the machine file running T3 server and the machine file system provider credentials and state system provider credentials and state system provider credentials and state that it owns.

A project is an environment local workspace record environment local workspace record environment local workspace record rooted at a directory. You get the idea. rooted at a directory. You get the idea. rooted at a directory. You get the idea. These are all very simple terms. I think These are all very simple terms. I think These are all very simple terms. I think this is easier from the top though. So this is easier from the top though. So this is easier from the top though. So let's do that. T3 code is a minimal guey let's do that. T3 code is a minimal guey let's do that. T3 code is a minimal guey for coding agents. A node websocket for coding agents. A node websocket for coding agents. A node websocket server wraps provider CLIs like codeex, server wraps provider CLIs like codeex, server wraps provider CLIs like codeex, cloud code, cursor, gro and open code. cloud code, cursor, gro and open code. cloud code, cursor, gro and open code. And it serves web desktop and mobile And it serves web desktop and mobile And it serves web desktop and mobile clients. You can think of T3 Code as an clients. You can think of T3 Code as an clients. You can think of T3 Code as an open- source bring your own subscription open- source bring your own subscription open- source bring your own subscription alternative to apps like Cloud Desktop, alternative to apps like Cloud Desktop, alternative to apps like Cloud Desktop, Codeex app, Cursor Glass, and Conductor.

This is useful context because now the This is useful context because now the This is useful context because now the agent has to spend less time figuring agent has to spend less time figuring agent has to spend less time figuring out what it is or what to look at when out what it is or what to look at when out what it is or what to look at when it's trying to model UI and UX. Now it it's trying to model UI and UX. Now it it's trying to model UI and UX. Now it has very specific direct instructions.

has very specific direct instructions. has very specific direct instructions. Now it knows what to think about when Now it knows what to think about when Now it knows what to think about when it's trying to get things right. And it's trying to get things right. And it's trying to get things right. And then an important piece, what makes T3 then an important piece, what makes T3 then an important piece, what makes T3 code special? Again, you might think, code special? Again, you might think, code special? Again, you might think, oh, that's something that should go in oh, that's something that should go in oh, that's something that should go in the read me. Yeah, to an extent, but the the read me. Yeah, to an extent, but the the read me. Yeah, to an extent, but the more important part of putting this here more important part of putting this here more important part of putting this here is to give the model an idea of what it is to give the model an idea of what it is to give the model an idea of what it should never compromise on if it's should never compromise on if it's should never compromise on if it's making changes. and those changes hurt making changes. and those changes hurt making changes. and those changes hurt any of these things, it shouldn't make any of these things, it shouldn't make any of these things, it shouldn't make those changes. It also helps those changes. It also helps those changes. It also helps contextualize how it's working and where contextualize how it's working and where contextualize how it's working and where it's working. So, it knows things like it's working. So, it knows things like it's working. So, it knows things like since I say we're open at the core, that since I say we're open at the core, that since I say we're open at the core, that means it's an open source project, act means it's an open source project, act means it's an open source project, act accordingly.

I even specify that developer preferences specify that developer preferences specify that developer preferences should be able to override anything should be able to override anything should be able to override anything here. Of note, most T3 code here. Of note, most T3 code here. Of note, most T3 code contributions will come from T3 code contributions will come from T3 code contributions will come from T3 code itself, often controlled remotely. This itself, often controlled remotely. This itself, often controlled remotely. This means you should be careful about means you should be careful about means you should be careful about accessing data, killing dev servers, and accessing data, killing dev servers, and accessing data, killing dev servers, and other things that may damage the T3 code other things that may damage the T3 code other things that may damage the T3 code instance that the contributor is using. instance that the contributor is using. instance that the contributor is using. This is because I got really annoyed at This is because I got really annoyed at This is because I got really annoyed at Opus, killing my running jobs. It was so Opus, killing my running jobs. It was so Opus, killing my running jobs. It was so [ __ ] annoying that it inspired me to [ __ ] annoying that it inspired me to [ __ ] annoying that it inspired me to do this whole rewrite. So, I guess Opus do this whole rewrite. So, I guess Opus do this whole rewrite. So, I guess Opus has contributed a lot. If you haven't has contributed a lot. If you haven't has contributed a lot. If you haven't caught up on the podcast, Opus 5 went caught up on the podcast, Opus 5 went caught up on the podcast, Opus 5 went from my favorite model to one that from my favorite model to one that from my favorite model to one that pisses me off a ton really fast. I don't pisses me off a ton really fast. I don't pisses me off a ton really fast. I don't use it if I can avoid it at this point, use it if I can avoid it at this point, use it if I can avoid it at this point, but yeah, this was because Opus was but yeah, this was because Opus was but yeah, this was because Opus was pissing me off. And then we have the pissing me off. And then we have the pissing me off. And then we have the glossery. And then I have the three ways glossery. And then I have the three ways glossery. And then I have the three ways to hurt yourself. This came pretty much to hurt yourself. This came pretty much to hurt yourself. This came pretty much directly from soul auditing my logs and directly from soul auditing my logs and directly from soul auditing my logs and finding these particular failure modes finding these particular failure modes finding these particular failure modes that happened a lot. I have a few more that happened a lot. I have a few more that happened a lot. I have a few more pro tips coming up for realworld work as pro tips coming up for realworld work as pro tips coming up for realworld work as well as two skills that have changed my well as two skills that have changed my well as two skills that have changed my life that I've never shared before. And life that I've never shared before. And life that I've never shared before. And I'm really excited to show you guys all I'm really excited to show you guys all I'm really excited to show you guys all of that. But this video is getting long, of that. But this video is getting long, of that. But this video is getting long, so I hope you can forgive one more quick

so I hope you can forgive one more quick so I hope you can forgive one more quick sponsor break. If you're a developer and sponsor break. If you're a developer and sponsor break. If you're a developer and you watch my videos or you've talked to you watch my videos or you've talked to you watch my videos or you've talked to me in person, then you probably already me in person, then you probably already me in person, then you probably already know how much I love today's sponsor. know how much I love today's sponsor. know how much I love today's sponsor. It's Convex. And I don't normally ask It's Convex. And I don't normally ask It's Convex. And I don't normally ask them to pay me because I show them for them to pay me because I show them for them to pay me because I show them for free. Their stuff is so good that we free. Their stuff is so good that we free. Their stuff is so good that we built all of T3 Chat on top of it after built all of T3 Chat on top of it after built all of T3 Chat on top of it after my own self-rolled solution just wasn't my own self-rolled solution just wasn't my own self-rolled solution just wasn't cutting it. And I'm so thankful I did cutting it. And I'm so thankful I did cutting it. And I'm so thankful I did because Convex solves so many annoying because Convex solves so many annoying because Convex solves so many annoying problems. They want me to show their new problems. They want me to show their new problems. They want me to show their new cloud code plugin. And I get it. It cloud code plugin. And I get it. It cloud code plugin. And I get it. It makes the model better at Convex. But it makes the model better at Convex. But it makes the model better at Convex. But it doesn't really need it because the doesn't really need it because the doesn't really need it because the models already are all so good at models already are all so good at models already are all so good at Convex. It turns out having one folder Convex. It turns out having one folder Convex. It turns out having one folder in your codebase that represents all of in your codebase that represents all of in your codebase that represents all of the things that your backend database the things that your backend database the things that your backend database etc. all need makes it really easy for etc. all need makes it really easy for etc. all need makes it really easy for agents to write code against it. This is agents to write code against it. This is agents to write code against it. This is why I love Convex. It's just code and why I love Convex. It's just code and why I love Convex. It's just code and it's just TypeScript code, too, which it's just TypeScript code, too, which it's just TypeScript code, too, which makes it really safe. And if you're makes it really safe.

So yeah, this next piece is written. So yeah, this next piece is written. So yeah, this next piece is another one of those huge lifesaver ones another one of those huge lifesaver ones another one of those huge lifesaver ones because I was running into a lot of because I was running into a lot of because I was running into a lot of problems where I would make a change in problems where I would make a change in problems where I would make a change in T3 code and it would only apply to one T3 code and it would only apply to one T3 code and it would only apply to one of the surfaces. For example, it would of the surfaces. For example, it would of the surfaces. For example, it would only be changed on the desktop app and only be changed on the desktop app and only be changed on the desktop app and not the website or mobile. I wanted to not the website or mobile. I wanted to not the website or mobile. I wanted to stop doing that and also to make sure stop doing that and also to make sure stop doing that and also to make sure the docs kept up to date as well. So I the docs kept up to date as well. So I the docs kept up to date as well. So I said as much hit every surface. The most said as much hit every surface. The most said as much hit every surface. The most common defect in this repo is a change common defect in this repo is a change common defect in this repo is a change that works on the path you tested and is that works on the path you tested and is that works on the path you tested and is missing everywhere else.

This call out ended up making me go even This call out ended up making me go even This call out ended up making me go even further. And I believe I still have a PR further. And I believe I still have a PR further. And I believe I still have a PR open for this. I do. I made a PR that I open for this. I do. I made a PR that I open for this. I do. I made a PR that I have to update and get merged soon where have to update and get merged soon where have to update and get merged soon where I properly split user and maintainer I properly split user and maintainer I properly split user and maintainer docs. So, they're two entirely separate docs. So, they're two entirely separate docs. So, they're two entirely separate entry points because I've had a lot of entry points because I've had a lot of entry points because I've had a lot of problems with models writing a bunch of problems with models writing a bunch of problems with models writing a bunch of the internal details of how something the internal details of how something the internal details of how something works in the userfacing docs. I had this works in the userfacing docs. I had this works in the userfacing docs. I had this a lot with lake bed and I still have it a lot with lake bed and I still have it a lot with lake bed and I still have it a bit with T3 code and I found that a a bit with T3 code and I found that a a bit with T3 code and I found that a really clear split plus a little bit of really clear split plus a little bit of really clear split plus a little bit of tuning in your agents MD to steer the tuning in your agents MD to steer the tuning in your agents MD to steer the model in the right direction helps a ton model in the right direction helps a ton model in the right direction helps a ton with this. Also gave some context on dev with this. Also gave some context on dev with this. Also gave some context on dev servers because I noticed the model servers because I noticed the model servers because I noticed the model often trying to call bun even though the often trying to call bun even though the often trying to call bun even though the whole project is V+ now and it's called

whole project is V+ now and it's called whole project is V+ now and it's called out everywhere. Models are also really out everywhere. Models are also really out everywhere. Models are also really bad at V+ without a little bit of help bad at V+ without a little bit of help bad at V+ without a little bit of help because they'll try to type out V+ and because they'll try to type out V+ and because they'll try to type out V+ and it doesn't work. They have to use VP and it doesn't work. They have to use VP and it doesn't work. They have to use VP and they'll also use VP dev instead of VP they'll also use VP dev instead of VP they'll also use VP dev instead of VP rundev which is really annoying. I rundev which is really annoying. I rundev which is really annoying. I called out Evanu for this decision called out Evanu for this decision called out Evanu for this decision already where VPDEV does its own thing already where VPDEV does its own thing already where VPDEV does its own thing and VP rundev does what you actually and VP rundev does what you actually and VP rundev does what you actually want even though PNPMDEV and bundev do want even though PNPMDEV and bundev do want even though PNPMDEV and bundev do the obvious thing. VPDEV is special and the obvious thing. VPDEV is special and the obvious thing. VPDEV is special and that pissed me off a lot at the time that pissed me off a lot at the time that pissed me off a lot at the time because it annoyed me to have to because it annoyed me to have to because it annoyed me to have to remember to type the right thing. Then remember to type the right thing. Then remember to type the right thing. Then my agent started making the same mistake my agent started making the same mistake my agent started making the same mistake and now I'm even more pissed. So this is and now I'm even more pissed. So this is and now I'm even more pissed. So this is a line that exists because our friend a line that exists because our friend a line that exists because our friend Evan Yu could not get over his [ __ ] Evan Yu could not get over his [ __ ] Evan Yu could not get over his [ __ ] It is what it is. He's wrong. It is It is what it is. He's wrong. It is It is what it is. He's wrong. It is hurting real users. Now I have to add hurting real users. Now I have to add hurting real users. Now I have to add this line and burn millions of tokens this line and burn millions of tokens this line and burn millions of tokens over the next few years because one over the next few years because one over the next few years because one person thought this was a good idea. person thought this was a good idea. person thought this was a good idea. Other pieces in here that were helpful Other pieces in here that were helpful Other pieces in here that were helpful is I gave instructions for using custom is I gave instructions for using custom is I gave instructions for using custom T3 code home directories so that if you T3 code home directories so that if you T3 code home directories so that if you spin up a dev server doesn't break your spin up a dev server doesn't break your spin up a dev server doesn't break your running server as well as the ability to running server as well as the ability to running server as well as the ability to share a dev server over tailet and tail share a dev server over tailet and tail share a dev server over tailet and tail scale which has been awesome for doing a scale which has been awesome for doing a scale which has been awesome for doing a lot of remote dev work. I also noticed lot of remote dev work. I also noticed lot of remote dev work. I also noticed it was often sharing the wrong URL it was often sharing the wrong URL it was often sharing the wrong URL without the pairing like token that I without the pairing like token that I without the pairing like token that I needed. So I told it to do that. And I needed. So I told it to do that. And I needed. So I told it to do that. And I also noticed that it was stopping the also noticed that it was stopping the also noticed that it was stopping the wrong processes and often forgetting to wrong processes and often forgetting to wrong processes and often forgetting to stop the one that it should. So I told stop the one that it should. So I told stop the one that it should. So I told it to make sure it saves the PID when it it to make sure it saves the PID when it it to make sure it saves the PID when it spins up the dev instance so it could spins up the dev instance so it could spins up the dev instance so it could kill it. I gave explicit instructions kill it. I gave explicit instructions kill it. I gave explicit instructions for test data which have been very for test data which have been very for test data which have been very helpful as well. As well as some helpful as well. As well as some helpful as well. As well as some instructions for verifying. I got instructions for verifying. I got instructions for verifying. I got annoyed at it spinning up computer use annoyed at it spinning up computer use annoyed at it spinning up computer use when it didn't need to. So I specified when it didn't need to. So I specified when it didn't need to. So I specified here upon request user visible front-end here upon request user visible front-end here upon request user visible front-end changes should get one integrated pass

changes should get one integrated pass changes should get one integrated pass in a real client. And we have skills for in a real client. And we have skills for in a real client. And we have skills for this test T3 app and test T3 mobile that this test T3 app and test T3 mobile that this test T3 app and test T3 mobile that Julius wrote for spinning up and testing Julius wrote for spinning up and testing Julius wrote for spinning up and testing those things with computer use. Then a those things with computer use. Then a those things with computer use. Then a bit more pull request instructions so bit more pull request instructions so bit more pull request instructions so the people filing pull requests will get the people filing pull requests will get the people filing pull requests will get better stuff when they do it from their better stuff when they do it from their better stuff when they do it from their agent because a lot of we have like 500 agent because a lot of we have like 500 agent because a lot of we have like 500 PRs. I want everything I can to make PRs. I want everything I can to make PRs. I want everything I can to make them easier to read. This has been very them easier to read.

One last one is I noticed that the dev servers one is I noticed that the dev servers one is I noticed that the dev servers were being spun up and worked on with were being spun up and worked on with were being spun up and worked on with way too much security for something that way too much security for something that way too much security for something that only affects your local network and tail only affects your local network and tail only affects your local network and tail net. So I yelled at it for that and said net. So I yelled at it for that and said net. So I yelled at it for that and said security is important but should not be security is important but should not be security is important but should not be overindexed on especially for dev mode overindexed on especially for dev mode overindexed on especially for dev mode and maintainer only features. Another and maintainer only features. Another and maintainer only features. Another one of those additions that seems small one of those additions that seems small one of those additions that seems small but has actually been life-changing for but has actually been life-changing for but has actually been life-changing for a lot of this work. The harsh reality is a lot of this work. The harsh reality is a lot of this work. The harsh reality is that you don't notice complexity that that you don't notice complexity that that you don't notice complexity that isn't necessary until it crosses a isn't necessary until it crosses a isn't necessary until it crosses a certain threshold. So the problem I had certain threshold. So the problem I had certain threshold. So the problem I had is that stuff was getting unnecessarily is that stuff was getting unnecessarily is that stuff was getting unnecessarily complex. I only noticed when it was too complex. I only noticed when it was too complex. I only noticed when it was too far, but then I took all of the things far, but then I took all of the things far, but then I took all of the things that caused that. I put them here and that caused that. I put them here and that caused that. I put them here and now everything is less complex, which

now everything is less complex, which now everything is less complex, which has been awesome. It's been so nice to has been awesome. It's been so nice to has been awesome. It's been so nice to have everything I do just be more like have everything I do just be more like have everything I do just be more like what I want and my prompts have gotten what I want and my prompts have gotten what I want and my prompts have gotten way smaller as a result. Here's a real way smaller as a result. Here's a real way smaller as a result. Here's a real example. I have to add the iOS and example. I have to add the iOS and example. I have to add the iOS and Android apps for T3 code to the Android apps for T3 code to the Android apps for T3 code to the marketing site. We are working on a marketing site. We are working on a marketing site. We are working on a marketing site overhaul, but I want marketing site overhaul, but I want marketing site overhaul, but I want these ASAP. So, we're going to get them these ASAP. So, we're going to get them these ASAP. So, we're going to get them right now. I asked it to make these right now. I asked it to make these right now. I asked it to make these changes. It decided that it wanted to changes. It decided that it wanted to changes. It decided that it wanted to give me a mock for all the different give me a mock for all the different give me a mock for all the different options using one of those two skills options using one of those two skills options using one of those two skills I'll show you in a minute.

Here's one I did yesterday that I forgot Here's one I did yesterday that I forgot Here's one I did yesterday that I forgot to make a PR for where I'm trying to fix to make a PR for where I'm trying to fix to make a PR for where I'm trying to fix the remote upgrade path to just have the remote upgrade path to just have the remote upgrade path to just have better UI. File in PR and now that will better UI. File in PR and now that will better UI. File in PR and now that will be filed and I'll probably go merge it be filed and I'll probably go merge it be filed and I'll probably go merge it after I'm done recording. So, I just after I'm done recording. So, I just after I'm done recording. So, I just noticed a bug literally now where I had noticed a bug literally now where I had noticed a bug literally now where I had a slept thread that woke because I a slept thread that woke because I a slept thread that woke because I snoozed it and it unneooed, but I wanted snoozed it and it unneooed, but I wanted snoozed it and it unneooed, but I wanted to settle it and the settle button to settle it and the settle button to settle it and the settle button wasn't working on a thread that had just wasn't working on a thread that had just wasn't working on a thread that had just woken up. So, I described the bug. I had woken up. So, I described the bug. I had woken up. So, I described the bug. I had a woke thread that I wanted to settle a woke thread that I wanted to settle a woke thread that I wanted to settle and I was unable. The settle button that and I was unable.

Diagnose and fix Rightclick settle did. Diagnose and fix Rightclick settle did. Diagnose and fix file and babysit. That is everything I file and babysit. That is everything I file and babysit. That is everything I need and I will have a PR that is need and I will have a PR that is need and I will have a PR that is probably ready to merge in the next 15 probably ready to merge in the next 15 probably ready to merge in the next 15 or so minutes. That's pretty [ __ ] or so minutes. That's pretty [ __ ] or so minutes. That's pretty [ __ ] cool. I know it's silly, but this has cool. I know it's silly, but this has cool. I know it's silly, but this has been really nice, but I promised you been really nice, but I promised you been really nice, but I promised you guys more. Promised you guys skills I guys more.

These are are my command center skills. These are the ones that are specific to just this the ones that are specific to just this the ones that are specific to just this machine because I bring new computers machine because I bring new computers machine because I bring new computers into my network that I want to use for into my network that I want to use for into my network that I want to use for different things all the time. I do need different things all the time. I do need different things all the time. I do need to get in the habit of sunsetting a to get in the habit of sunsetting a to get in the habit of sunsetting a bunch of them, but I'm not there yet.

bunch of them, but I'm not there yet. bunch of them, but I'm not there yet. But when I get a new Linux box set up or But when I get a new Linux box set up or But when I get a new Linux box set up or I just reimage a machine, I don't have I just reimage a machine, I don't have I just reimage a machine, I don't have to put a bunch of work in or set up to put a bunch of work in or set up to put a bunch of work in or set up nicks or some [ __ ] I just want to get nicks or some [ __ ] I just want to get nicks or some [ __ ] I just want to get that machine online ASAP. So, I ended up that machine online ASAP. So, I ended up that machine online ASAP. So, I ended up configuring a bunch of things for my configuring a bunch of things for my configuring a bunch of things for my machine, getting my laptop how I wanted, machine, getting my laptop how I wanted, machine, getting my laptop how I wanted, and then telling an agent to look at all and then telling an agent to look at all and then telling an agent to look at all of my config, look at my bash history, of my config, look at my bash history, of my config, look at my bash history, look at all the things I set up, and look at all the things I set up, and look at all the things I set up, and write them all down. And then once I did write them all down. And then once I did write them all down. And then once I did that, I told it to go set up another that, I told it to go set up another that, I told it to go set up another machine with all of the things I liked. machine with all of the things I liked. machine with all of the things I liked. and it got a lot of it, but it missed and it got a lot of it, but it missed and it got a lot of it, but it missed some things and it did some things it some things and it did some things it some things and it did some things it didn't need to. So, I told it all of didn't need to. So, I told it all of didn't need to. So, I told it all of those. I told it to adjust those those. I told it to adjust those those. I told it to adjust those instructions to better fit the needs instructions to better fit the needs instructions to better fit the needs that I had. And it did. It created a that I had. And it did. It created a that I had. And it did. It created a whole provision a box skill that is all whole provision a box skill that is all whole provision a box skill that is all of the things that I want to have on of the things that I want to have on of the things that I want to have on these new machines that I can set up these new machines that I can set up these new machines that I can set up over SSH. I even got it to make me this over SSH. I even got it to make me this over SSH. I even got it to make me this nice little HTML page that it updates nice little HTML page that it updates nice little HTML page that it updates every time it makes changes to the fleet every time it makes changes to the fleet every time it makes changes to the fleet that detail all the machines, their that detail all the machines, their that detail all the machines, their specs, what they do, what exists on specs, what they do, what exists on specs, what they do, what exists on them, etc. Different connection methods, them, etc. Different connection methods, them, etc. Different connection methods, the different specs, the baseline for the different specs, the baseline for the different specs, the baseline for what I want on each box, T-M certain what I want on each box, T-M certain what I want on each box, T-M certain shell stuff, the ability to control shell stuff, the ability to control shell stuff, the ability to control T-Mox over SSH with a mouse. And as T-Mox over SSH with a mouse. And as T-Mox over SSH with a mouse. And as you've probably seen in previous videos, you've probably seen in previous videos, you've probably seen in previous videos, that's exactly what I have set up. I that's exactly what I have set up. I that's exactly what I have set up. I have this machine. This is the one that have this machine. This is the one that have this machine. This is the one that does most of my dev work. It's my does most of my dev work. It's my does most of my dev work. It's my framework desktop with 32 threads and 64 framework desktop with 32 threads and 64 framework desktop with 32 threads and 64 gigs of RAM. This machine gets abused gigs of RAM. This machine gets abused gigs of RAM. This machine gets abused and it is where I do all my dev work and it is where I do all my dev work and it is where I do all my dev work now. And it runs a T3 code process that now. And it runs a T3 code process that now. And it runs a T3 code process that everything is controlled through. All of everything is controlled through. All of everything is controlled through. All of my machines are colorcoded and also have

my machines are colorcoded and also have my machines are colorcoded and also have matching colors inside of my actual like matching colors inside of my actual like matching colors inside of my actual like cmox so it's easy to see each machine in cmox so it's easy to see each machine in cmox so it's easy to see each machine in SSH when I need to. But honestly, since SSH when I need to. But honestly, since SSH when I need to. But honestly, since the recent T3 code changes, I have been the recent T3 code changes, I have been the recent T3 code changes, I have been doing a lot less. I'm just using doing a lot less. I'm just using doing a lot less. I'm just using everything through T3 code and not everything through T3 code and not everything through T3 code and not bothering with the SSH. You get the bothering with the SSH. You get the bothering with the SSH. You get the point, though. I set all of this up so point, though. I set all of this up so point, though. I set all of this up so that I can more easily manage and that I can more easily manage and that I can more easily manage and configure my machines and I have a skill configure my machines and I have a skill configure my machines and I have a skill that is only on this computer, but this that is only on this computer, but this that is only on this computer, but this is in a repo that has all the skills is in a repo that has all the skills is in a repo that has all the skills that all the other computers get. So, that all the other computers get. So, that all the other computers get. So, let's look at the universal ones cuz I let's look at the universal ones cuz I let's look at the universal ones cuz I promised you guys I would show some promised you guys I would show some promised you guys I would show some skills I have never shown before. I skills I have never shown before. I skills I have never shown before. I already mentioned the file upload one. already mentioned the file upload one. already mentioned the file upload one. This needs a lot of tuning in the This needs a lot of tuning in the This needs a lot of tuning in the description because a lot of this one, I description because a lot of this one, I description because a lot of this one, I will admit, is slop. The whole service I will admit, is slop. The whole service I will admit, is slop. The whole service I built is also slop. I actually bought built is also slop. I actually bought built is also slop. I actually bought teslop.org in order to have a place on teslop.org in order to have a place on teslop.org in order to have a place on Cloudflare that these files will go. And Cloudflare that these files will go. And Cloudflare that these files will go. And this is my file upload skill for this is my file upload skill for this is my file upload skill for uploading any local file mdash a uploading any local file mdash a uploading any local file mdash a screenshot screen recording log document screenshot screen recording log document screenshot screen recording log document markdown file config build artifact or markdown file config build artifact or markdown file config build artifact or archive to the user's public file host archive to the user's public file host archive to the user's public file host at files.tslop.org and return a public at files.tslop.org and return a public at files.tslop.org and return a public URL. Rewriting all of this. When user URL. Rewriting all of this. When user URL. Rewriting all of this. When user asks to upload asks to upload asks to upload a file or one is needed for a PR PR a file or one is needed for a PR PR a file or one is needed for a PR PR descriptions, descriptions, descriptions, use this skill. Cool. Much better use this skill. Cool. Much better use this skill. Cool. Much better description. I also have a requires description. I also have a requires description. I also have a requires section I added here in my metadata section I added here in my metadata section I added here in my metadata because I don't want the skill on because I don't want the skill on because I don't want the skill on machines where I don't have a global machines where I don't have a global machines where I don't have a global file host token because that is how the file host token because that is how the file host token because that is how the skill gets authenticated. If it is skill gets authenticated. If it is skill gets authenticated. If it is unset, tell the user instead of unset, tell the user instead of unset, tell the user instead of guessing. And I have the simple bash guessing. And I have the simple bash guessing. And I have the simple bash command that it will run in order to command that it will run in order to command that it will run in order to post the file to my service. Needs the post the file to my service. Needs the post the file to my service. Needs the token. As long as it has the token, it

token. As long as it has the token, it token. As long as it has the token, it can upload. Say use only the files base can upload. Say use only the files base can upload. Say use only the files base name for file name such as login flow. name for file name such as login flow. name for file name such as login flow. MP4. The service slugifies it and adds a MP4. The service slugifies it and adds a MP4. The service slugifies it and adds a random suffix. So names do not need to random suffix. So names do not need to random suffix. So names do not need to be unique. Treat the response body yada be unique. Treat the response body yada be unique. Treat the response body yada yada yada. And then basic instructions yada yada. And then basic instructions yada yada. And then basic instructions on how to use the URL in GitHub as well on how to use the URL in GitHub as well on how to use the URL in GitHub as well as instructions that it can encode a GIF as instructions that it can encode a GIF as instructions that it can encode a GIF for a preview when it makes sense to. for a preview when it makes sense to. for a preview when it makes sense to. And I even give the ffmpe command for And I even give the ffmpe command for And I even give the ffmpe command for that which probably wasn't necessary. that which probably wasn't necessary. that which probably wasn't necessary. This skill is [ __ ] awesome. you have This skill is [ __ ] awesome. you have This skill is [ __ ] awesome. you have any idea how cool it is to have agents any idea how cool it is to have agents any idea how cool it is to have agents that can upload files? So, if you're on that can upload files? So, if you're on that can upload files? So, if you're on your phone on the T3 Code mobile app and your phone on the T3 Code mobile app and your phone on the T3 Code mobile app and your agent builds some new feature and your agent builds some new feature and your agent builds some new feature and you want to see it, you can tell it you want to see it, you can tell it you want to see it, you can tell it upload the file and respond with the URL upload the file and respond with the URL upload the file and respond with the URL and then it does. And then you can click and then it does. And then you can click and then it does. And then you can click the URL and watch the actual video it the URL and watch the actual video it the URL and watch the actual video it recorded on a real computer of it doing recorded on a real computer of it doing recorded on a real computer of it doing the thing. You can tell it to file a PR the thing. You can tell it to file a PR the thing. You can tell it to file a PR and it can include that URL in the and it can include that URL in the and it can include that URL in the embedded video in the actual PR. It embedded video in the actual PR. It embedded video in the actual PR. It makes the back and forth so much easier. makes the back and forth so much easier. makes the back and forth so much easier. And this is the theme I really want to And this is the theme I really want to And this is the theme I really want to make sure you guys get out of this. I'm make sure you guys get out of this. I'm make sure you guys get out of this. I'm not just trying to make the model more not just trying to make the model more not just trying to make the model more technically competent. The role of all technically competent. The role of all technically competent. The role of all of this is not to make the model better of this is not to make the model better of this is not to make the model better at writing code. There are little pieces at writing code. There are little pieces at writing code. There are little pieces here that are helpful with that. But the here that are helpful with that. But the here that are helpful with that. But the main point of all of this, the main main point of all of this, the main main point of all of this, the main reason I put all this time in is to make reason I put all this time in is to make reason I put all this time in is to make the model better at communicating with the model better at communicating with the model better at communicating with me. I want to read the outputs, but when me. I want to read the outputs, but when me. I want to read the outputs, but when the outputs are piles of slop with no the outputs are piles of slop with no the outputs are piles of slop with no useful context, it sucks. All of these useful context, it sucks. All of these useful context, it sucks. All of these skills, all of these capabilities, all skills, all of these capabilities, all skills, all of these capabilities, all of this time I spent is giving the model of this time I spent is giving the model of this time I spent is giving the model what it needs to communicate with me and what it needs to communicate with me and what it needs to communicate with me and other maintainers and contributors other maintainers and contributors other maintainers and contributors better. And the file upload skill is not

better. And the file upload skill is not better. And the file upload skill is not super useful for the agent, but it's super useful for the agent, but it's super useful for the agent, but it's really useful for me when I want the really useful for me when I want the really useful for me when I want the agent to show me something. And that was agent to show me something. And that was agent to show me something. And that was all the preamble for the skill that I all the preamble for the skill that I all the preamble for the skill that I rely on the most, the one that has rely on the most, the one that has rely on the most, the one that has fundamentally changed my life and sadly fundamentally changed my life and sadly fundamentally changed my life and sadly requires me to shout out anthropic requires me to shout out anthropic requires me to shout out anthropic because Thoric is the guy who HTML pled because Thoric is the guy who HTML pled because Thoric is the guy who HTML pled me. This is my HTML planning skill. It's me. This is my HTML planning skill. It's me. This is my HTML planning skill. It's no longer HTML plans. I use it a lot for no longer HTML plans. I use it a lot for no longer HTML plans. I use it a lot for things that aren't plans. It's now HTML things that aren't plans. It's now HTML things that aren't plans. It's now HTML communication. When the user asks for an communication. When the user asks for an communication. When the user asks for an HTML writeup of work, not as part of the HTML writeup of work, not as part of the HTML writeup of work, not as part of the codebase, use this skill to create and codebase, use this skill to create and codebase, use this skill to create and always upload it to PostPlan. This is always upload it to PostPlan. This is always upload it to PostPlan. This is also useful for reading postplan.dev also useful for reading postplan.dev also useful for reading postplan.dev URLs because I noticed the agent would URLs because I noticed the agent would URLs because I noticed the agent would try to browser use go to postplan when try to browser use go to postplan when try to browser use go to postplan when it could just curl it. So, when should it could just curl it. So, when should it could just curl it. So, when should this be used? Use this skill for any this be used? Use this skill for any this be used? Use this skill for any request to produce a readable HTML request to produce a readable HTML request to produce a readable HTML artifact for a human. Whether it's artifact for a human. Whether it's artifact for a human. Whether it's called a plan, a spec or writeup called a plan, a spec or writeup called a plan, a spec or writeup findings or summary, a report comparison findings or summary, a report comparison findings or summary, a report comparison set of UI mocks. The word plan is often set of UI mocks. The word plan is often set of UI mocks. The word plan is often absent. You can tell I wrote this by absent. You can tell I wrote this by absent. You can tell I wrote this by hand because of the typos here. What the hand because of the typos here. What the hand because of the typos here. What the requests share is a document to read requests share is a document to read requests share is a document to read outside the terminal and a link to open outside the terminal and a link to open outside the terminal and a link to open it. Horrible copy. I'll touch this up it. Horrible copy. I'll touch this up it. Horrible copy. I'll touch this up later. Also use it whenever a user later. Also use it whenever a user later. Also use it whenever a user supplies a postpl URL. A lot of this was supplies a postpl URL. A lot of this was supplies a postpl URL. A lot of this was slop I tidied up incorrectly. Honestly, slop I tidied up incorrectly. Honestly, slop I tidied up incorrectly. Honestly, probably going to delete almost all of probably going to delete almost all of probably going to delete almost all of this. The rest is what matters. reading this. The rest is what matters. reading this. The rest is what matters. reading a postplane URL. I want the model to a postplane URL. I want the model to a postplane URL. I want the model to stop opening this in the browser stop opening this in the browser stop opening this in the browser directly. So now I say when a user directly. So now I say when a user directly. So now I say when a user supplies a postplain dev URL, fetch the supplies a postplain dev URL, fetch the supplies a postplain dev URL, fetch the uploaded HTML immediately with the uploaded HTML immediately with the uploaded HTML immediately with the shell. Do not use web search or browsers shell. Do not use web search or browsers shell. Do not use web search or browsers to retrieve it. You know what I'm going to retrieve it. You know what I'm going to retrieve it. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to show you guys how I to do? I'm going to show you guys how I to do? I'm going to show you guys how I actually make changes here because I'm actually make changes here because I'm actually make changes here because I'm seeing opportunities to improve. Real

seeing opportunities to improve. Real seeing opportunities to improve. Real prompt I just wrote that might be prompt I just wrote that might be prompt I just wrote that might be helpful for you guys to see how I work helpful for you guys to see how I work helpful for you guys to see how I work with agents. This is in my fleet repo with agents. This is in my fleet repo with agents. This is in my fleet repo where I manage all of this content. I where I manage all of this content. I where I manage all of this content. I want to make a few more small changes. want to make a few more small changes. want to make a few more small changes. I've made more since my last prompt, so I've made more since my last prompt, so I've made more since my last prompt, so refamiliarize yourself before editing. refamiliarize yourself before editing. refamiliarize yourself before editing. The HTML communication skill is a bit The HTML communication skill is a bit The HTML communication skill is a bit overloaded. I want to break it in two, overloaded. I want to break it in two, overloaded. I want to break it in two, similar to the file PR and babysit PR similar to the file PR and babysit PR similar to the file PR and babysit PR skills, cuz I worked with this instance skills, cuz I worked with this instance skills, cuz I worked with this instance in this thread for that in the past. The in this thread for that in the past. The in this thread for that in the past. The descriptions for both should be really descriptions for both should be really descriptions for both should be really simple, focused on when to trigger and simple, focused on when to trigger and simple, focused on when to trigger and not what it is. One should be postplan not what it is. One should be postplan not what it is. One should be postplan read for reading content from postplan read for reading content from postplan read for reading content from postplan URLs. The other should be HTML URLs. The other should be HTML URLs. The other should be HTML communication for communicating to the communication for communicating to the communication for communicating to the user via HTML. When to use section user via HTML. When to use section user via HTML. When to use section should not exist in the post plan scale, should not exist in the post plan scale, should not exist in the post plan scale, only the HTML communication one. It only the HTML communication one. It only the HTML communication one. It should also be more minimal. Make your should also be more minimal. Make your should also be more minimal. Make your changes. Don't commit or push to any changes. Don't commit or push to any changes. Don't commit or push to any machines yet. I'll tell you when. This machines yet. I'll tell you when.

This is just because I'm using soul and I is just because I'm using soul and I is just because I'm using soul and I want to make sure it doesn't overdo so I want to make sure it doesn't overdo so I want to make sure it doesn't overdo so I tell it where to stop. When you give the tell it where to stop. When you give the tell it where to stop. When you give the model a stop point, life gets much model a stop point, life gets much model a stop point, life gets much better. Remember earlier when I said to better.
