Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 17/04/2026Before AI: I moved slow, but I knew every line. Now: I move fast, and I'm auditing things I didn't write. Both ways are exhausting. 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 13/04/2026You can just do things. Built a self-hosted cora.computer for email: - auto-triages into custom labels w/ AI - marks processed as read, uncertain → Needs Review - queues archive proposals for approval Runs on Cloudflare Workers + D1 + AI Gateway (Gemma 4) 100
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 06/04/2026Use Google's latest OSS model Gemma-4 in Hermes or OpenClaw via @cloudflare workers AI It's seriously impressive and noticeably faster than Kimi in my testing 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 07/03/2026I got tired of reviewing PRs blind. So I built Sherpa - a Chrome extension that explains GitHub PRs as you read them. On demand. Your code never leaves your machine. New post on how it works: markphelps.me/posts/building-llm-po… 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 25/02/2026deepwiki is so good ask questions about a codebase in natural language no clone, no boot up, fast response with sources 🧑🍳😘 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 24/02/2026Apple finally approved my FamilyControl prod permissions. Going to finally launch Stay on TestFlight this week. Related, I migrated trystay.app to @Cloudflare with OpenNext in 5 mins from the Triangle Co. Saves $40/month. 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 21/02/2026Look how cute this lil dude is. This is much easier than building mobile apps ngl 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 21/02/2026Me and Claude cooking this morning.. Who knew building Chrome extensions was this fun 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 20/02/2026Gave Sherpa a fresh coat of paint and now it's running on @Cloudflare Workers + Durable Objects so summaries stay synced across tabs and users in real-time 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 20/02/2026vibe coded a chrome extension that explains PR changes as you scroll through them near-realtime what a time to be alive 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 20/02/2026Adding devcontainer support to Flipt let me use --dangerously-skip-permissions with Claude Code. Now the agent can run wild inside the container. Can't touch my host. Mounted my skills in. Full control. Wrote about why this matters: markphelps.me/posts/running-ai-agen… 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 19/02/2026Show me your OpenClaw agents. Here's mine: Hunter - Blog & social posts Gilfoyle - Server maintenance 🤘 George - Flipt business. British, organised David G - Workout planning & accountability Dwight - Assistant to the regional manager. Coordinates them all 100
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 14/02/2026Codex 5.3 is scary good.. and fast. Vibed this landing page using some frontend skills from skills.sh Deployed to Cloudflare Workers using the Cloudflare Docs MCP server openvault.agentty.sh We're cooked gang 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 09/02/2026OpenClaw Mission Control update: usage graphs 1.1M tokens across 4 agents in 6 days main: ~500k 🐷 coding: ~200k social: ~30k blog: ~15k Models: opus-4-6: 45% gpt-5.2-codex: 35% MiniMax: 15% Now I know exactly where my API budget goes. 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 08/02/2026Everyone's building OpenClaw mission controls. I built one too, but with a twist: It shows you what OpenClaw hides—the raw LLM inputs, tool calls, token counts, everything. A thread 🧵 101
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 02/02/2026I've installed and nuked clawdbot/openclaw like 4 times now. Local linux, then VPS. Each time something broke badly enough that nuking and starting over was the only option. 110
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 01/02/2026I'm building an MCP gateway in Rust 🦀 Instead of loading every tool upfront, your agent gets four meta-tools: search, inspect, call, list. Progressive discovery. 50 tokens vs 18,000 for typical workflows. Useful or solving a problem that doesn't exist? 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 30/01/2026i think our jobs are safe for a little while longer.. 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 25/01/2026Spent a few hours yesterday bringing my old blog back to life: markphelps.me Go/Hugo -> Astro AWS S3 -> Cloudflare R2 Netlify -> Cloudflare Pages Thumbnails conjured via Replicate API I have been fully absorbed into the orange cloud 100
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 09/01/2026Opus is a beast at planning (and coding) but I still have it spawn parallel subagents using Sonnet 4.5 when possible because Sonnet also ships code like a machine. Save on those rate limits! 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 07/01/2026@Experian is impossible to reach when your account gets hacked. Their AI blocks you from any human help. Anyone dealt with this? WDYD? 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 06/01/2026I don't and well never understand Nix and I dont care who knows it! 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 04/01/2026thinking about building a simple app that tracks car maintenance + deadlines (registration, inspection, insurance renewals). i keep a spreadsheet (like a nerd) but never look at it until something's already overdue. anyone actually solved this or is everyone just vibing? 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 04/01/2026One thing I've noticed over this holiday break: I've been rapidly prototyping ideas with AI, then taking a full day to sit with them and decide if they're actually worth pursuing. And since the code is AI-generated, killing bad ideas feels completely painless. 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 02/01/2026Are we already at the point where foundational models have become commodities? 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 02/01/2026I want this page as an API yourgpt.ai/tools/openai-and-other-l… Does this exist? Up to date LLM model prices/context limits/etc info as JSON 010

Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 23/12/2025Gemini 2.5 Flash is absurdly fast and honestly holds its own against the bigger Gemini models.. at least for UI/design work. What are your thoughts chat? 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 22/12/2025ask your ai agent to recommend 2-3 pre-commit hooks for your current project this + husky = vibe coding bliss 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 22/12/2025CodexBar by @steipete is super nice. - works with Codex, Claude Code and Gemini - open source: github.com/steipete/CodexBar this feels like the future, AI helping us build polished little apps that do one thing really well. 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 21/12/2025Me when Claude starts recommending these for new projects: - Go - Cloudflare Pages - Replicate API 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 20/12/2025Really digging these superpowers Claude skills a co-worker showed me today github.com/obra/superpowers what Claude code skills or plugins are you using? 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 19/12/2025Its about that time to buy a new mac. Wish I could use my linux machine full time but my new hobby building ios apps requires a mac. Now the question is, mac mini or macbook? 100
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 10/12/2025Im serious idk how anyone writes Swift on the daily. Its a very ugly language 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 10/12/2025Day 2 of sharing my waitlist for my new iOS app www.trystay.app So far I posted on LinkedIn and pulled in 2k eyeballs. Only 23 signups, a 1% hit rate...not exactly going viral lol. Curious which channels actually move the needle for fellow indie app builders 000
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 20/10/2025This AWS outage has had more impact on my life so far than the US govt being shutdown for 3 weeks 020

Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 20/10/2025Pretty happy I was able to snag this domain for my vibe coded agent/tunnel project. Now just need to finish it 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 18/10/2025Since Im blocked by Apple currently from working on my vibe coded iOS app.. I figured I would get to work on my vibe coded VibeTunnel replacement using Tauri ✨ 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 18/10/2025I’m really enjoying this ‘beads’ tool to capture and manage tasks while vibe coding. It integrates really nicely with Claude code, does what it says it does and doesn’t get in your way Much better than managing TODOs in a markdown file Check it out 👇 110
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 17/10/2025Been playing email ping pong with Apple Support for the last week. So frustrating! Their Apple Dev Account system is the most antiquated insane thing I've seen. 100
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 11/10/2025Every time I try to use Neovim for React/Typescript/frontend work, it feels like forcing a square peg into a round hole Vscode just hits different. There’s something about it that makes coding frontend way more enjoyable than with other tools 120
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 08/10/2025Any body else give their coding agents words of encouragement or just me? "Nice!" "Looks great"! "Good job champ!" 010
Mark Phelps @markphelps.github.io · 08/10/2025After so many tries to give Codex a real shot, i just can't do it anymore. Claude code actually fits the way my brain works 🧠 100
