rudel just launched on product hunt 🚀
we analyzed 1,573 claude code sessions and found:
-> skills fire in only 4% of sessions
-> 26% get abandoned within 60 seconds
-> error patterns in the first 2 mins predict failure
-> how much we're spending in tokens (a lot)
we turned it into a dashboard for your whole team
free, open source, self-hostable

@dessaigne this is the way and we found that managing and improving agent skills across a team to be a way of making team's ouput 10x https://t.co/idwxVJrKAg
agent skills are going to matter way more than people think.
a new research paper by microsoft validated a lot of the direction behind nua.
if you think about it, skills are just compact knowledge about procedures:
- how we test
- how we structure code
- how we design ui elements
- how we investigate incidents
- how we ship safely
etc.
and the paper treats skill files as trainable infrastructure.
that's exactly the shift i’m building for.
a skill file is no longer just a .md file sitting in a repo.
it becomes something you can measure, edit, test, reject, improve, promote based on the actual sessions where that skill was used.
and today most teams even don’t know:
- which skills exist
- where they live
- which skills an agent used successfully (or not)
- who tweaked a skill locally
- whether that tweak helped
- whether that tweak should become the team standard
and that’s the gap i’m focused on with nua.
make skills visible.
make skills measurable.
make skills compound.
my bet is that engineering will become less about writing code directly and more about managing the context and skills around the code.
and i think most coding agent tools are still approaching this from the old world:
code first.
context second.
cursor, windsurf, claude code, codex, conductor, etc. are all incredible tools but their center of gravity is still the code editor.
that comes from assumptions that made sense a few years ago but not anymore.
nua starts from a different assumption:
the real leverage will be in the context layer the agents work from. code matters a whole less today and not at all tomorrow.

as much i love jony ive’s work at apple but you just cant compare this to this macchina.
imho, you shouldn’t design a car that way with such heritage and the racer spirit of enzo ferrari as if you were a designer of a californian tech company. every problem should not look like a nail… it’s just tacky for a ferrari.
@simonlast this is one where i see many ppl lack, especially across teams. so we built https://t.co/idwxVJrKAg to solve that in a way that doesnt slow one down. starting with agent skills
