1/ My most productive team this year isn't all human.

I'm VP of Software at Viking Sasquatch, and I run a fleet of AI agents alongside my engineers. A thread on how it actually works 🧵

@ConnorTalksAI Muse and Dots have their use and strengths, but Grok Bot is by far the easiest to set up and organize teams of specialized bots - much like you would have employees in a startup.

4/ I'll post what I learn here: what works, what breaks, and how to lead people and agents at the same time.

Off the clock it's TTRPGs, woodworking and drums. Follow along if you build software or AI systems.

3/ On the human side, every engineer works with Cursor, Claude Code and Codex.

Our cycle time dropped by half. The tools helped, but the bigger change was rethinking review, testing and handoffs around them.

@mrmikeMTL Yup.

@Historianluce @KevinLamb74 I have wondered this myself. 🤔

[Ken Taylor @KenTaylorBuilds]

Woah! 😮

Hi, I'm Ken. I lead software teams and spend way too much time building with AI agents. Here for AI, dev tools, games, and the occasional woodworking project.

@Ripped_Tabard @trolllordgames @FoundryVTT That, I would have to defer to @trolllordgames on. :)

[Ken Taylor @KenTaylorBuilds]

@SpesMagnaMark @trolllordgames @FoundryVTT Yes, the current version (v1.0.1) is a "character sheet model" meaning you can put whatever you want for class or race (core or expansion). The rules system relates more to the dice-rolling mechanics. We continue improving on it, so feel free to send us feedback!

@trolllordgames A trolldom or trollmoot?

@ElfLairJasonTLG @IronMaiden Well done Jason! Clear coating / painting in general is a process with guitars. Check out the ColorTone line of aerosols from Stewmac and make sure you wet-sand!
