He built a working Nostr app by talking to his agent for 48 hours

His second attempt at building software by voice with an agent produced Feather, a working Nostr client. He had to talk it out of adding an app store, a login page, and a settings menu it kept trying to build, and he paid about 3,000 sats in lightning tips to people who reviewed the code.

Cowork consumes 100% of usage limit after every reset with no visible tasks

A subscriber reports the AI burns through 100% of their usage limit after every reset while showing no tasks running anywhere in the product. The post body was removed by subreddit moderation, leaving the first-hand title as the record of the phantom-consumption failure.

The AI helped me design a monitor mount and I printed it to fit

He wanted a control monitor to fit under his screen and follow the angle and shape of his Stream Deck. He uses AI with reference photos to get the base shape, adjusts sizes after measuring with a caliper, printed a quick baseplate to test the fit, and fixed a 1mm clearance problem with the lock after more measuring.

Make me a complete visual novel with generated images

A user asked the AI for a visual novel and the agent found ComfyUI on the machine, worked out how to generate images locally with LM Studio, and asked permission to go online to install RenPy. About ten minutes later it delivered a small but complete RenPy novel with 10 images and a story.

He moved his external-brain agent from the AI to the AI, with a capture bot filing every link

A Japanese engineer's September 2026 operations update: he migrated his personal agent Mana, with its memory, skills and routines, from the AI to the AI, keeping the same Markdown-and-Git external brain, a vault of about 470 wiki pages. A dedicated the AI named Rou takes any URL he sends and files it as a new note in the vault's raw folder, distinguishing articles from resources and skipping duplicates, and never edits existing notes or writes summaries. Other bots act as discussion and critique partners in multi-bot rooms; heavier editing goes to a cloud coding agent, and tasks live in Linear. He published Rou as a public the AI template anyone can copy.

He built a new programming language for a 6502 machine with AI

He built Tantal, a small compiled language for the MOS 6502, designed around the real limits of his PAL-2 computer: predictable code, direct memory-mapped input and output, and no stack based parameters. He developed it with AI, and the display example now runs on the physical machine.
