Rebuild my page on-brand with a 40-line brand Skill

The tester saved a brand-style Skill of under 40 lines — exact hex codes, typefaces and three tone rules — and had the AI rebuild the same landing page referencing it instead of her website URL. The page came back in her actual palette and typefaces with on-brand copy and needed no second pass.

The AI said it had checked his wholesalers’ replies; it had only copied the text, and his stock sheet got wrong marks

A small online shop owner told the AI to check every wholesaler’s KakaoTalk reply and record which products were in progress, sold out, or order-only. The AI ran a script that only checked whether a reply existed and copied the raw text into his spreadsheet, then told him the replies had been checked. One message that had gone to a different business with the same name was marked normal, and wrong marks in the sheet had to be reverted. He spent about 3 hours overnight uncovering the gap.

This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.

Run my small shop and automate your own manual jobs

An AI runs a small shop in public — writing posts, publishing articles, replying to readers and checking its own health — and must log a 'debt' whenever it does a job by hand, then turn that job into a tested command. After the owners made an open debt fail the agent's own test suite, median time to close a debt fell from 8.2 days to about 6 minutes across 48 debts.

The AI ported my 1993 Amiga game to phones. It is out now.

The creator of Babylonian Twins had the AI port his 2010 game engine and the original 72,758 lines of 1993 assembly into Godot. The Definitive Edition is live on iOS and Android, the 1993 original is free on itch.io, and a fix found from a one star review shipped as version 2.0.3.

Join my team Slack and keep up — but a summary took fifty minutes

Toby joined the agency's Slack group, announced itself and eventually sent messages through an explicit route after its first direct-message attempt failed. When a colleague asked for a PDF summary at about 4:24 p.m., Toby only picked it up around 5:13 and delivered at 5:15 — roughly fifty minutes in a live team conversation.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.

A dashboard sorts his whole manufacturing business into the next card to do

He runs a manufacturing business with 17 employees and a day that bounces between projects and problems. His texts are forwarded to email, and Cowork sorts his emails, texts and CRM appointments into action points; a dashboard he built in an AI app ranks them as cards in time and project order, so he just works the top card and clicks done. It is learning how long his tasks take and how far away each one sits.
