- Keep important workflows moving for teams that depend on them.
Claude Code
2 days ago
- Claude Code is a CLI tool that runs Claude in an agentic loop, using filesystem commands like cat, grep, sed, and find, offering transparency without magic.
- Improve rule-following by starting every session with 'read CLAUDE.md' and including its entire content in every response to enforce adherence.
- Enhance context gathering with a workflow: list source files, use ripgrep to find definitions, expand context iteratively until all relevant code is identified.
- Cache context in claude/ directory by generating comprehensive guides for topics, and update them after changes to fix inaccuracies or outdated info.
- Avoid context compaction by breaking large changes into smaller sessions; if context runs out, ask Claude to document what it learned and start fresh.
- Automate workflows via CLAUDE.md and custom slash commands, storing step-by-step instructions in claude/workflows/ and having Claude announce each step.
- Run multiple Claude instances in parallel using separate folders or git worktrees to work on independent tasks without interfering.
- For difficult problems, have Claude produce a context document and ask a smarter model (e.g., o1-pro, o3) for a detailed implementation guide to feed back to Claude.
- Use o3 to create tutorials for obscure libraries or frameworks, storing them in claude/tutorials/ for reuse.
- Future improvements include custom MCP tools, stackful workflows with branching and variables, sub-claude invocations, and whole-codebase scans with cheap models.
Self-improving CLAUDE.md files
2 days ago
- Using CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md files improves agentic tools like Claude Code and Codex by providing project context.
- Manually updating these files becomes tedious and hard to maintain as project complexity grows.
- A trick is to use agent logs (JSONL files stored in ~/.claude/projects or ~/.codex/sessions) to identify common problems with CLAUDE.md.
- Prompting the agent to search logs and analyze improvements to CLAUDE.md, including patterns of frustration or repeated requests, works well.
- Parsing JSONL efficiently can be challenging, leading to complex jq commands, so a custom CLI tool was built for faster searching (open-sourced for Mac and Linux).
- The CLI tool reduces analysis time from minutes to seconds, and could be scheduled for self-improvement.
- Curating suggestions quickly helps, but better prompts could improve self-optimization.
- The author hopes Anthropic adopts AGENTS.md for better naming.
Codex Micro – a compact hardware controller for AI agents
14 days ago
- Codex Micro is an AI agent controller that allows voice prompting, collaboration, and monitoring of agents in a tactile way.
- It features Agent Keys that dynamically reflect agent task states (idle, thinking, complete, needs input, error) and Command Keys for actions like push-to-talk, accepting/rejecting outputs, and triggering custom actions.
- The device includes a joystick for accessing 4 preset or custom skills, a dial for controlling agent thinking depth, and customizable keycaps with 32 icons.
- Designed with a polycarbonate frame for diffused RGB lighting, an aluminum base for stability, and supports remapping keys directly in Codex software.
- Fully integrated into Codex, it requires no additional downloads and offers 6 programmable layers for workflow customization via Input software.
