1. Delete the docs you create to explain your code
2. Take the tokens you save on updating those docs
3. Spend them on making your code self-explanatory
if anything you want your agents to do is deterministic, such as managing a queue, or sorting a list, create a script for the agent to use. Agent's don't do deterministic things well. It's our job to force determinism upon them.
a prompt I've been using a lot recently:
implement <SPEC> and while you do, keep a running implementation-notes.html file (or markdown) with decisions you had to make weren't in the spec, things you had to change, tradeoffs you had to make or anything else I should know
You get good at anything by doing it a lot. Just do things a lot
It's not time spent. It's volume of doing. Make sure the time it takes you to do a single thing is as fast as possible. Your cycle time is sacred
every time you replace “this is hard” with “what’s the first step?” you shift brain activity from your amygdala (fear) to your prefrontal cortex (problem-solving).
that’s neuroplasticity in real time.
the new programming with agents, this is what i feel like, my brain power goes more and more to finding the creative ways to close the loop
only way to get these things to do exactly what you want
The biggest skill you can develop is the ability to reset fast.
Bad conversation? Move on.
Bad day? Start fresh tomorrow.
Missed workout? Hit it the next day.
Poor decision? Learn and adjust.
You can't control what happens to you, but you control how long you let it affect you.
I spent 10+ years building Android apps natively. Compose, XML layouts, Material Design since version 1.
The one thing that always frustrated me? Asking AI tools for help and getting Material Design 2 with random teal everywhere.
So I built the Material Design 3 Skill for Claude.
30+ components. Compose, Flutter, Web. Full MD3 Expressive support. Built-in audit scoring to check if your UI is actually following the spec.
It's free. It's open source. And it finally makes AI understand what modern Android UI should look like.

What's the worst AI-generated UI you've ever seen?
I'm Boris and I created Claude Code. I wanted to quickly share a few tips for using Claude Code, sourced directly from the Claude Code team. The way the team uses Claude is different than how I use it. Remember: there is no one right way to use Claude Code -- everyones' setup is different. You should experiment to see what works for you!
You don’t need a bunch of MCPs and skills. You don’t need a customized TUI with tons of plugins. You don’t need custom sub agents and Ralph loops.
You just need to prompt better.
@sedammert@rburhum Lo vengo usando con https://t.co/HCEybzMVee + skills para iOS
Puedes usar estos skills de aqui (tambien son aplicables para Claude) https://t.co/wgssFlNetc
