10 postsBuilding Reliable Software With Untrustworthy AI Agents
A practical framework for reliable AI-agent coding: context window management, verification layers, CLAUDE.md briefs, and reusable skills.
Why Coding Agents Improve More From Harness Design Than Models
LangChain pushed a coding agent to Terminal-Bench's top 5 without changing the model — the gains came entirely from harness design.
Beyond Context Engineering: A Discipline for Reliable LLMs
A position paper argues LLM reliability requires channel engineering, not just context engineering, and introduces the Socium collaboration model.
CommitBrief — AI code reviews, right in your terminal
A provider-agnostic, local-first CLI that reviews your staged changes, a historic range, or a whole GitHub pull request. Zero telemetry, no server. Free and open source.
commitbrief.comStop Editing Prompts, Build a Context Compiler Instead
Instead of hand-editing prompt strings, treat context assembly as a compiler: versioned templates, testable rules, and full traces of what shipped.
Context Engineering: Why AI Agents Need More Than Good Prompts
AI agent output depends less on prompt wording and more on curated context. Why tool design, memory, and context curation now beat prompt engineering.
From Prompt to Loop Engineering: The Verifier Is the Bottleneck
Prompt engineering became context engineering, now loop engineering: same unit-of-work shift, but the newest bottleneck is the verifier, not the model.
Treat the Context Window Like a Budget, Not a Junk Drawer
An open-source context-engineering framework has AI agents draft a context manifest before work begins, disciplining token budgets with decay rules and cross-platform parity checks.
Harness Engineering: Curating Context to Scale AI Coding Agents
Harness engineering keeps AI models fixed and optimizes context and tools instead, encoding nonfunctional requirements for reliable agent output.
Regex Beats LLM Classifiers by 45 Points in Agent Context Routing
In a new test, plain regex rules beat TF-IDF classifiers by 45 points at routing agent context, showing an LLM call is often unnecessary.
New Context Engineering Rules for Claude 5 Models
Explore the evolved context engineering practices for Claude 5, focusing on design over strict rules.
