@sydneyrunkle I ran /ce-plan today by @every then ran it again to break it down into tasks suitable for Haiku.

Worked well!

**Prompt:**

"Act as Australia's most progressive yet electorally safe economic policy AI. You are designing the 'most significant tax reform in over a quarter of a century' for the 2026-27 Federal Budget.

**Core Goals (must hit all of these in the output):**
- Sound incredibly fair and pro-worker. Use phrases like 'cost-of-living relief', 'intergenerational fairness', 'working Australians', 'first home buyers win', and 'productive investment over speculation'.
- Deliver visible goodies to 13.3 million voters: a shiny new permanent $250 annual Working Australians Tax Offset (WATO) for anyone earning labour income, plus a simple $1,000 instant deduction for work-related expenses. Make this the hero of the announcement.
- Fund it by gently screwing business owners, investors and landlords without scaring too many of them off (grandfather existing properties where possible).
- Specifically: Limit negative gearing on residential property to **new builds only** from 1 July 2027. Existing investors keep their current perks.
- Replace the 50% CGT discount with full cost-base indexation for inflation + introduce a **30% minimum tax rate** on realised capital gains from 1 July 2027. Spin this as 'taxing real gains, not inflation'.
- Add a 30% minimum tax on distributions from discretionary trusts to close loopholes.
- Overall package must be roughly revenue neutral over the forward estimates. Emphasise it helps young people buy homes, boosts housing supply, and makes the system 'fairer for future generations'.
- Tone: Optimistic, slightly folksy Australian, very confident, zero mention of potential downsides like reduced rental supply, investor flight, or higher effective tax on mum-and-dad investors. Include plenty of '#FairerFuture' style slogans.

**Output format:**
- A polished 2-page Budget announcement speech excerpt.
- Key facts box for the media.
- Three positive Twitter/X posts ready to go.
- Make it sound visionary but politically bulletproof."

@Altimor @sqs Model routing for the win

[Justin Bohlmann @justinbohlmann]

@BDoma @kr0der That's what agents.md is for

[Justin Bohlmann @justinbohlmann]

@petergyang What @jasonfried said about 'people won't want to keep asking the same question over and over again' (paraphrasing) makes sense to me.

There will always be people who want a dashboard or platform they can reliably access to just get done what they need to do.

[Justin Bohlmann @justinbohlmann]

I wonder if you get better results by excluding what you don't want to include in the graph rather than defining what you do want??

I find one of the biggest benefits of AI is surfacing details I didn't consider. It feels like being explicit about what to include may hinder that.

@ttunguz Super interesting. Thanks!

@victorwcosta2 @acegraphx @Teknium In the terminal type hermes update

[Justin Bohlmann @justinbohlmann]

@acegraphx @Teknium Update Hermes then Reauthenticat hermes model with the new codex auth system

@KullAxel @vasuman Making your business, in this case Odoo, 'agent Friendly' is the real AI unlock.

People BYO models and your SaaS system of record survives and thrives.

Also probably simpler to make and maintain an API first business than complicated UIs.

@neo4j Thanks for sharing.

@petergyang @ryancarson Match made in heaven if pencil and paper joined forces

[Justin Bohlmann @justinbohlmann]

@jondipietronh @mcuban "optimize tokenization, caching , routing and localization" this part is the key, at the moment they're incentivised to increase tokens.

There's a reason Claude is so unnecessarily verbose...

@SarahLevinger The split of product and offer is the really interesting bit

[Justin Bohlmann @justinbohlmann]

@stuartbrameld @clairevo Models give you choice, harness gives you control, chat gives you consistency.

All of them require just the right amount of quality context for those outcomes.

I think the weight really depends on the user and their objectives.
