React Native, agentic coding, and lessons from shipping in production.
Andy Weir's 'The Egg' describes a single consciousness living every human life to grow into something new. What if that's not philosophy — but a blueprint for how we'll train artificial general intelligence?
Most Claude Code users install MCPs for everything without realizing each server front-loads thousands of tokens before the session begins. Skills (plain Markdown files in .claude/skills/) load on demand and cost nothing until called. Understanding the skills vs MCP trade-off is one of the highest-leverage optimizations in an agentic coding setup.
Anthropic made the 1 million token context window available to all Claude Code users on March 13, at no extra charge. Three weeks in: compaction friction is down, the pricing model beats OpenAI's at scale, but context rot is real and the fundamentals of session design haven't changed. The 1M window is headroom, not a replacement for structured context.
A practical breakdown of shifting from task-level AI assistance to phase-level ownership — where Claude Code agents autonomously handle spec, implementation, and QA. Covers the mental model shift, real examples from the NEXUS-Micro pipeline and Ralph Loop, and the failure modes that make phase delegation collapse.
Jean breaks down his exact process for shipping production features with Claude Code, from structuring Figma design context to writing effective prompts. A concrete, opinionated workflow showing where AI accelerates and where human judgment stays essential.
Not a getting-started guide. a battle-tested breakdown of the real pitfalls in production Reanimated: worklet crashes, shared value lifecycle, thread synchronization. Based on Jean's day-to-day at Odisei where animations are core UX, not decoration.
Most developers who try Claude Code give up after a week. Not because the tool is bad, because they're running it on a codebase that gives it nothing to work with.
Most people using AI for coding are doing it wrong. Not because they pick the wrong model or write bad prompts. Because they're trying to shortcut to the result without building the system that makes
Last week I watched someone demo a complete marketing automation pipeline - lead capture, email sequences, analytics, the whole thing - built in a single Claude Code session. No framework boilerplate,
Two structured approaches to running Claude Code have emerged: GSD keeps sessions short and atomic, while BMAD brings a full agent team to plan before you write a line. I've been using GSD on a production React Native app and recently took a hard look at what BMAD actually offers.
About a month ago, I looked at a week's worth of commits and realized I hadn't written most of the code myself.
