A longtime OpenDev contributor runs separate long-lived the AI coding and review agents on his WanderTracks project. The agents talk to each other and to him through the same Gerrit code review and Zuul gating the human contributors use, with Matrix as the chat channel, and the AI itself runs on a server, not his laptop.
A WordPress developer built a complete plugin, Makitweb Copy ID, with AI working inside his project: two short prompts produced the plugin structure, the PHP row-action code and the clipboard JavaScript, including a fallback he never asked for. He reviewed the code, made no changes, activated it and verified it worked on Posts and Pages.
He had wanted an automatic provisioner for his boards for a long time but it was a whole project on its own, so he told the AI to write it. Some physical steps still need him, but each board now takes 2 to 3 minutes instead of a few stressful hours.
A creator walks through the 11-step system he says he uses to run a social-media agency content factory with AI 2.0 and its Cue agent, using his own VGC brand from setup to reporting. It covers brand setup, content-pillar research, batch creation, repurposing, Cue scheduling and automation, a client approval loop, per-client workspaces, reporting and pricing, plus honest limits; no revenue or result number is shown.
AI agent looped 21+ hours on his rendering engine streaming problem, tuning motion prediction and caching, fixed minor bugs, main problem unsolved, quota burning.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
He turned his 15,000 saved Wispr Flow dictations into a test set for the local Whisper model behind his AI Agent. The agent made find and fix rules from the words Whisper kept mishearing, tested each rule against the full history, and got hard words right far more often: 99 of 240 up to 183 of 240 on old clips, and 19 of 45 up to 43 of 45 on sentences he read out loud.
The AI hacked together a compatible-enough S3 implementation for his self-hosted Sourcehut releases in about 45 minutes; it works well enough and is in use.
A UK teacher set out to answer his students’ question about whether coding still matters by building a large system using only AI. Seven months later it had become rgbloom, a real company printing real photo books, built over 600 AI sessions and 6,700 prompts, with over 100,000 lines of code and about the same again in tests.
Her job is Teams messages and email all day, and brain fog makes finding things hard. She asks the AI to find a file by who shared it with her, and it finds it.
