Metacognitive AI: Teaching Your Agent Self-Evaluation
Most agent instructions define behavior. The missing layer teaches self-evaluation. False evidence gates, seven named failure modes, and hedging detection.

Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Context Engineering Is Architecture: 650 Files Later
Context engineering for AI agents across a 650-file, seven-layer hierarchy. Three production failures, real token budgets, and the system that survived.
AI & TechnologyMulti-Agent Deliberation: When Agreement Is the Bug
Multi-agent deliberation catches failures that single-agent systems miss. Here is the architecture, the dead ends, and what is actually worth building.
AI & TechnologyWhy My AI Agent Has a Quality Philosophy
My Claude Code agent inherited every sloppy human habit at machine speed. I built 3 philosophies, 150+ quality gates, and 95 hooks to fix it. Here is what worked and what didn't.
AI & TechnologyBuilding AI Systems: From RAG to Agents
I built a 3,500-line agent system with 86 hooks and consensus validation. Here's what I learned about RAG, fine-tuning, and agent orchestration.
AI & TechnologyCompounding Engineering: How My Codebase Accelerates Instead of Decaying
Most codebases slow down as they grow. Mine accelerates. The difference: 95 hooks, 44 skills, and 14 configs that make each new feature cheaper than the last.
AI & TechnologyAI Theater: Why 90% of Companies 'Use AI' But Only 23% Create Value
McKinsey found 90% of companies claim AI adoption but only 23% scale beyond pilots. I've witnessed three flavors of AI theater and practiced one myself.
AI & TechnologyHow LLMs See Text: What My i18n System Taught Me About Token Economics
Translating my site into 6 languages revealed that Korean costs 2.8x more tokens than English for identical content. The interactive visualizer below shows why.
AI & TechnologyThe Ralph Loop: How I Run Autonomous AI Agents Overnight
I built an autonomous agent system with stop hooks, spawn budgets, and filesystem memory. Here are the failures and what actually ships code.
AI & TechnologyThe OODA Loop for Prompt Engineering: What Five Failures Taught Me
Five prompt failures taught me that structured observation beats clever wording. Boyd's OODA loop maps directly to the prompt engineering workflow I use daily.
AI & TechnologyVibe Coding vs. Engineering: Where I Draw the Line
I use Claude Code daily with 86 hooks and a full quality gate system. Here's where I vibe code, where I engineer, and why the boundary matters.
AI & TechnologyFrom 76 to 100: Achieving a Perfect Lighthouse Score
How a personal portfolio site went from a 76 mobile Lighthouse performance score with 0.493 CLS to a perfect 100/100/100/100 across all categories.
