Most AGENTS.md files try to do too much. Treat yours as a table of contents — link to essential docs, let your LLM know where to look, and keep the file itself short and scannable.
Remote MCPs add a round-trip tax every time your AI needs context. Local Markdown files are faster, cheaper, and more reliable. Here's why that matters.
Poor AI output is usually a context problem, not a prompting problem. ContextStore is a native Mac app that makes it easy for anyone on your team to build and manage a Markdown-based context repository.
The build vs. buy equation has radically shifted. I built a full comment system for my blog in a few hours with AI — moderation, magic link auth, spam protection — and I own every piece of it.
Poor AI output usually isn't a prompting problem, it's a context problem. A context repository gives your AI the business knowledge it needs to make good decisions. Here's how to build one.
Quiddity interviews you about your tools and process, then generates custom /new-issue, /next-task, and /approve skills tailored to how you actually work. One install, one setup command, and you're off.
The final post in my series on skills for dev workflow. A /new-issue skill lets you describe a bug or feature in a sentence and get back a well-structured issue with wireframes and acceptance criteria — better than most people write by hand.
As your agent skills grow, some parts want to be their own thing. Here's how I used a simple prompt to extract a standalone /approve skill from my /next-task skill — and why thinking of skills like functions leads to better workflows.
A step-by-step guide to building a /next-task agent skill that pulls from your issue tracker, manages branches, implements changes, and opens PRs. Customize it for your own tools — Linear or Jira, GitHub or GitLab.
One of the most exciting things about LLMs is their ability to do useful things that would be hard to script in the traditional sense. Skills take this further, letting you build intelligent workflows that handle the messy, context-dependent parts of product development.
