Multi-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 & TechnologyWriting
Thoughts on design, development, AI infrastructure, and building products.
Why 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. Here's what worked.
AI & TechnologyTwo MCP Servers Made Claude Code an iOS Build System
XcodeBuildMCP and Apple's Xcode MCP give Claude Code structured access to iOS builds, tests, and debugging. Setup, real-world results, and honest lessons.
AI & TechnologyStartup Validation Stack: What 12 Projects Taught Me
I validated 12 projects in 9 months. Some followed the framework. Some skipped steps. The difference in outcomes taught me which evidence actually matters.
Career & GrowthMental Compound Interest: Cross-Domain Knowledge in Practice
Design + engineering + AI produced tools none of those skills alone could build. An interactive calculator and the cross-domain advantage in practice.
Systems & ProductivityClaude Code Extensions: Organizing 139 Skills and Hooks
Claude Code offers four extension types. After building 95 hooks, 44 skills, and dozens of commands, I learned which abstraction fits which problem.
AI DevelopmentClaude Code + Cursor: 30 Sessions of Combined Use
I tracked 30 development sessions using Claude Code and Cursor together. The data shows where each tool wins and where the combination fails.
AI DevelopmentDesign Systems for Startups: How I Built Mine Backwards
I built my design system backwards: tokens first, components never. A CLS bug taught me the cost of skipping tokens. I stopped debating when to invest.
Design & UXBuilding Design Teams That Ship: 12 Years of Evidence
After 12 years leading product design at ZipRecruiter, I learned which team structures ship and which polish endlessly. The patterns surprised me.
Design & UXThe Pathless Path: Leaving a 12-Year VP Role to Build
I left VP of Product Design at ZipRecruiter after 12 years to build independently. No plan, no destination, just curiosity and a financial runway.
Career & GrowthContext Window Management: 50 Sessions of Data
I measured token consumption across 50 Claude Code sessions. Context exhaustion degrades output before you notice. Here are the patterns that fix it.
AI DevelopmentDecision Timing: The 15x Cost of a Bad Database Choice
I measured the cost of a database decision across three systems. Migration cost grew 15x in three years. A framework for when to decide fast vs slow.
