I swapped Claude for open weights in my agent heist. Claude read the ROM to explain why the move would not work. Qwen walked over and tried the handle. Every seat but one runs on my GPU now. briandouglas.me/posts/2026/0...

Every Agent Session Should Be a Heist
I stopped asking one model to play every role. Pokémon Red showed me how to cast a crew by benchmark and route each job with vLLM.

My OpenClaw was spending $80 a day to read my email. One config line brought it down to a few dollars. Wrote up where the money went and how observability made the fix obvious: briandouglas.me/posts/2026/0...

My OpenClaw Was Spending $80 a Day to Read My Email
My OpenClaw chief-of-staff agent was burning $80 a day in Anthropic API costs. The fix was one config line, and the only reason I found it was observability.

Cursor, GitLab and Zed agree GitHub is breaking. They disagree on how to rebuild it.
Cursor's Origin, GitLab's Project Switch and Zed's DeltaDB are racing to rebuild code hosting for AI agents as GitHub buckles under the load.

Claude code shared Fable is storing for sessions for 30 days because it’s useful for understand the safety of the model. My suggestion is you should save your sessions too. If you are not today, put it on paper. Here’s my AI Devcon talk on the subject lnkd.in/efQRKGTx

I Trained a Model Instead of Writing a Skill
Skills are a great way to teach an agent a pattern. I got curious whether the agent could just learn the pattern, so I tried training a model while also figuring out what RL actually is.

Hacking on an agent orchestrator that is essentially a bunch of open source tools I like (Git, tmux, opencode and stereOS), duct taped together using Bun. The result provides an isolated workspace in a tmux session you can attach to do work, and a VM where the agent can access the workspace
An ascii diagram that shows the architecture for an LLM agent system. At the outer layer is the host machine, which holds the workspace as a git worktree. The worktree is shared with a VM where the agent is isolated to. The final piece is a tmux session that allows the human to access the workspace and the VM directly via ssh

Claude Code crashed an hour into a session. No recovery, no history. But I had tapes running. It stores every LLM interaction in a local SQLite db. Pointed Claude at it, recovered everything, and shipped the feature. briandouglas.me/posts/2026/03/04/claude-failed-mid-session-tapes-brought-it-back/
