He maintains about ten repositories in his spare time, including work on Bootstrap, and the issue trackers grow faster than his evenings. Since October 3, 2026 a conductor AI session paces background agents that read and draft under written rules, and he gets one question at a time. On Bootstrap every open item is analyzed and a fix prepared when needed, and nothing is posted without a maintainer.
Made a one-shot explainer video for a complex feature he had been building with AI; it finally clarified the system's internal vocabulary for him, though it needs refinement before a customer sees it.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
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.
Ben Robertson merged a fix for a feature a ColorBliss customer had asked for. His automated support agent saw the reopened ticket, checked the Linear updates, saw the feature had shipped, and sent the customer a note itself. He only found out when he logged into his help desk later.
Internal multi-subagent code review tool he built has run for half a year and finds serious issues including privacy leaks that humans and open-weight models miss.
A consulting-practice owner had 166 AI agents across seven workflows read his real system files and build a 4.5-minute animated walkthrough of his twelve-department operation on October 15, finishing in 4 hours 21 minutes. Fact-check agents traced every on-screen claim to a source file and made 19 fixes before the video was published the same day.
Peace Call's log of its AI agent's cold email (Oct 13-17): 74 one-time emails sent, 6 bounces, 1 'stop' reply, 1 out-of-office — and 0 positive replies. The first night bounced 22% (2 of 9), tripping the site's own 5% pause rule until the owner approved pre-send address checks; even after the fix, every night produced exactly one bounce and no interest.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Ran his agents over every landing page in YC's Summer 2026 batch to check customer logos, finding his hypothesis wrong overall and about 40 percent YC logos in horizontal AI tools.
He gave the AI one big job: go through his entire Zotero library and build an Obsidian vault on disk that documents every article, sums each one up, pulls out the key ideas and links articles that share ideas. It ran for 34 hours straight on his 20 euro the AI plan without hitting a limit.
