Companies must replace their workforce of 1,000 office workers using an ERP (like SAP) with a few AI operators and C-level decision makers, or they will die.

But this cannot be done by adding AI workflows and AI agents on top of existing IT infrastructure and processes.

They must build an agentic company from the ground up, designed specifically for AI agents and AI operators. It is important that such a system have no admin UI, but only MCP access (or whatever comes after MCP).

I built a concept and prototype implementation of an agentic ERP system with all the modules SAP offers (FI, CO, HR, PM, PP, ...) which has no admin UI (only MCP). I also implemented a 3-level, autonomous, self-improving agentic workflow system (Level 1: Markdown recipes, Level 2: CLI, Level 3: Convex functions). Now, I run company simulations against it, processing for example 100,000 invoices.

My goal was to learn what is required for such an agentic company. I believe you can only truly understand it by implementing a prototype.

My agentic ERP is still a private repo, but I plan to open source it soon.

@karpathy I‘d love to see HTML 1.0 or a subset of 2.0 to replace Markdown in AI. NO STYLING!

@shadcn Registry to support images (byte array)

@tobi What I don’t get with this one-click install tools. Isn‘t the real power of OpenClaw in the CLI tools, the models and the SOUL on your PC/laptop? I think 99% out there don‘t understand what OpenClaw is.

@leerob I use Composer 1 as my default model, and I‘m pretty happy for most of my tasks. Why did you prefer Codex and Opus for your development? Did you use it primarily for long running agentic tasks?

[Markus Tripp @markustripp]

@leerob This is the reason why I created @headcodecms

[Markus Tripp @markustripp]

@kapish_dima @shadcn Cool. In the meantime you maybe want to help me with my open source project? https://t.co/lSgKHYmDG9 😉

Payload CMS to complex? Try @headcodecms

[Markus Tripp @markustripp]

What a journey. Almost two years ago, I shared the first prototype of @headcodecms , a simple CMS for Next.js, something minimal that developers could install like any other npm package. I planned to gather feedback and release quickly after.

Well... the plan changed.

More people got involved, feedback and feature requests rolled in. The project grew - fast. By early this year, Headcode CMS had become a fully‑fledged system. I made a big bet on the new Next.js caching architecture, even before it was production-ready. That gamble delayed things... and eventually, I put the CMS aside.

Then came Next.js Conf 2025.

Vercel officially launched the new caching system. And over one weekend, I revisited the project with fresh eyes.

A lot had changed in the ecosystem: AI tools, shadcn/ui, Drizzle ORM, TanStack, and so on. It just clicked: instead of pushing forward with the heavy version, I decided to tear it all down and build the CMS I wanted from day one: small, elegant, and open.

The new Headcode CMS is built around a simple idea:

Keep the core minimal. Integrate the tools we already love.

Here's what this new version offers:

- A dramatically simplified codebase: reduced to the essentials
- Built entirely on open‑source tools like Drizzle ORM, TanStack Form, and Zod
- Uses Next.js 16 Cache Components for performance
- Installable via a shadcn registry: like any other shadcn/ui component
- Lives inside your project: edit or extend anything
- Publish and install your own themes, section UIs, and field types via your own shadcn registry
- Works locally out of the box: no external dependencies
- Seamlessly scales up for production (Turso, Vercel Blob, etc.) via simple .env settings

Thanks for joining me on this journey.

Launch day: I created a Minimalistic Web CMS, published as a shadcn registry, and optimized for Next.js 16 Cache Components.

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://t.co/MVNsEEcDjX

@headcodecms includes a simple admin interface, that combines UI components from shadcn/ui and Kibo UI into flexible TanStack Forms, supporting both single fields and arrays.

This setup makes it easy to define content structures in code and edit them visually in the admin.

Headcode CMS is fully open source and it would not be possible without these wonderful projects:
@nextjs
@tailwindcss
@shadcn
kibo-ui
@tan_stack
@DrizzleORM
@better_auth
@tursodatabase
uploadthing (@pingdotgg)
@tiptap_editor

@shadcn shadcn/ui is my wrapper!

@rauchg Nice, but then the next dialog presents me 8 Google account options 😂

@dhh Omarchy looks awesome! You are absolutely right. It's as if the industry is trying to copy vegetarian burger patties or sausages instead of creating excellent vegetarian food 😉

@MartinThuer Kommt darauf an in welcher Community du unterwegs bist. In der US lastigen Tech Szene sehr wohl relevant.

Ich lese immer vom Wählerwillen. Mein Wille ist, dass Kickl nicht Kanzler wird und ich bin auch Wähler. Und woher kommt der Irrglaube, dass sich die meisten ÖVP Wähler Blau/Türkis wünschen? Und warum wird immer von abgewählt gesprochen? >50% ist immer noch eine Mehrheit, trotz Verluste.
