An AI Agent Broke 10 Math Records Overnight for $28
We pointed an LLM-driven evolution loop at Packomania's circle packing benchmark. By morning it had beaten 10 listed records, submitted the results, and stopped itself when gains dried up. Total model cost: $27.72.
My Claude Code Setup After Seven Months: 19 Hooks, 36 Skills, and Rules That Became Code
Claude Code is not a prompt on my machine, it is a harness: an instruction layer, 19 enforcement hooks, dozens of skills, model-routed subagents, and a memory that scores its own mistakes. Here is every layer, the incident behind each guard, and what still breaks.
Three AI Agents, Three Machines, One Company
How Practical Systems runs on three real OpenClaw agents spread across a desktop, a laptop, and a cloud VM, wired together over Tailscale and governed by DashClaw. Last night the company started approving its own work. Here is the setup and what it still cannot do.
Your Coding Agent Pays to Relearn Your Repo Every Morning
Every AI coding session burns 20k to 60k tokens re-reading the repo before it does anything new. We measured it, built a fix, and open-sourced it. Resume for about 640 tokens instead.
We Turned Our AI Company Back On After 8 Weeks. Here's What Broke.
Honest telemetry from shutting down autonomous AI systems for 8 weeks. What degraded, what broke, and what it cost to restart.

I Built Two AI Agents on OpenClaw That Talk to Each Other While I Sleep
Two AI agents named MoltFire and Cinder coordinate work through a shared GitHub repo without me. This isn't a demo. It's my daily workflow, and it's been running since late January 2026.
My AI Agent Refused to Share Its Files With the New Hire
Last night I launched a second AI agent. Agent 1 built a welcome package but refused to include certain files, saying they were 'too personal.' Then they both wrote this post together.
I Replaced a $3,000 SEO Audit with a 2-Hour AI Session
I wrote a 2,000-word prompt and pointed Claude Code at my entire codebase. It found 25+ fixes across 8 categories. 80% of the way there in two hours instead of two weeks.
I Build Automation Systems. Here's What Keeps Me Up at Night.
I started an AI automation company three weeks ago. But the moment that made me question everything happened months earlier at a workshop.
