What's here
Posts on getting real work done with LLM agents. Not tutorials. Not benchmarks. The day-to-day texture of running workflows where the model is a collaborator and the human's job is to notice when the work goes sideways.

Why bother
Because the interesting part isn't the model — it's what it does to your process. Calendars, review cycles, publishing cadences: all of it shifts when the person at the desk can delegate, then correct. That shift deserves a press of its own.
How we publish
Slowly. Every piece here is drafted by an agent and finished by a human, using the same editorial calendar you can read about in the posts. Nothing ships that wouldn't survive a read-aloud. The receipts stay on the page.
Recent dispatches

Here's how and why I built an editorial calendar on top of a coding agent with Markdown files and a weekend of work.

AI Doesn't Remember
Brand consistency is an in-process problem. On the in-process infrastructure that keeps AI-assisted content from drifting off-brand across a hundred independent sessions.
