About me

Later I understood it wasn't my degree holding me back. Back then I just couldn't do anything yet.

Most of what I know I taught myself: reading docs, running experiments, failing a lot. When I was job hunting out of school I sent more than five hundred résumés. Three companies wrote back, all of them tutoring schools.

These days I run AI agents in the terminal all day, and when something annoys me I turn it into a small tool and put it out there. The moment I hope for is when a general tool becomes one person’s own tool. I also want to see how far an ordinary person can get on this road.

Claude Code skill

Opus Manager

Unattended: Claude becomes the project manager. It writes tickets, hands the coding to cheaper models, checks the results itself, gets a model from another vendor to review, and keeps going after you leave. In my words: a $20 Claude Pro plan starts to feel like the $200 Max plan.
