Parallel agent coding
OpenSpec for spec-before-code, Beads as the local task graph, git worktrees for isolation. The toolkit I wish I had.
Updated May 2026
Hermes for release notes
Wiring a Hermes agent to draft release notes from commits and PRs. Cron-scheduled, model-agnostic, ~$5 of infra.

Field notes · AI & agentic engineering
On building software with AI agents.
New workshop · free, self-paced
Stop repeating yourself to your agent.
A hands-on workshop that turns the four-layer agent-ready stack into muscle memory: one prompt, one hook, one subagent, one skill, against a planted bug in a starter repo.
Hook
Block the diff before the agent finishes.
Subagent
Audit the rest of the repo for siblings.
Skill
Name the workflow so you can call it.
Listen
Latest essay, in your ears.
Audio companions to selected essays. Generated, then loudness-normalized and published as a GitHub release.
The Subagent I Didn't Need
A confession about a subagent I wrote, ran for a month, and quietly deleted — and the broader taxonomy of agent-side artifacts that helped me see why. Five things live in a mature agent-ready repo, and they are not interchangeable. A field guide to when not to delegate.
Reading paths · In-depth series
Pick a track. Each one ships a complete idea end to end.
Tech notes
From the engineer's notebook.
Patterns, debug stories, and small wins — written for my future self.

Working notes
What people say after shipping together.
A few field notes from clients and peers who worked with me across product, engineering, and company-building.
Prakash and the Truemark team stand above every engineering team I've worked with over the last 25 years. If you can partner with Prakash, you will not regret it.
I have seen him progress from Trainee to Technical Project Manager. He is an excellent software developer, very enthusiastic, a quick learner, and someone with excellent problem solving skills.
Prakash is really easy to work with, and has a good understanding of react-native and javascript. I hope to work with him again one day.
