I'm currently developing an old school closed source SaaS, using entirely TypeScript and pnpm. It is so refreshing. You'll hear about that soon, but I want to share how I'm building it.
I've paired the backend with a Spacebot deployment to orchestrate agents per customer, as well as dedicated higher level operations agents. AI employees codified into backend logic using an SDK.
My workflow is Voicebox dictations, because the audio and transcript are saved locally for archive, to create dated research documents, I have 36 of them so far, converted into 142 tasks covering development to MVP and into production scale. The tasks are just in-repo markdown files with a metadata schema and naming convention like "API-001-hono-scaffold.md". They're more like specs, with full implementation guidelines and can evolve with the code. Finally I turn those into official docs when the code is complete and tested.
I watch every coding agent carefully, usually 2-5 at a time and I tackle 2-10 tasks per day depending on the size. I'm working with another backend developer, a close friend, who is cleaning up any slop behind me, every commit. Not using branches, just pushing to main.
I take a little extra time on the planning phase, doing deep research, web scraping. I spend the largest chunks of time on UI, but have a lot of existing material from my other apps like Spacedrive, Voicebox and Spacebot to use as reference. Research is key, you can never do too much. I capture every thought I have as a voice note, and have the agent expand it into a research doc.
Oh and canceled my Claude sub, exclusively using GPT 5.5 through OpenCode, being careful to pick the right thinking complexity for the job, because AI overthinking is a real issue in many tasks. Gippity is killing it right now.
I started this almost three weeks ago, moving exceptionally fast I was even able to demo it at Web Summit Vancouver, but in the last four days alone I've built the majority of the platform. I turned the docs into a deck and plugged the data room as an agent chat along side the deck, so potential investors can ask questions before chatting with me.
Feels like the golden age to build a new platform. Pretty hyped about this one.
@xiao_zcloak Via stripe, there’s a “manage subscription” button in the dashboard that takes you to stripe. If you have any issues from there just DM / email.
I set up a community AI bot so convincing that members didn't even realize they were talking to an AI.
And in the background, it ranks and scores members.
Less than 2,000 GitHub stars, @spacedriveapp is massively underrated.
🧵Here's my breakdown and a video walkthrough of using SpaceBot:
@johnhanacek@jamiepine Deerflow2 is better at long running autonomous tasks at this stage, but leveraging the production ready nature of OpenCode using Spacebot as an orchestrator, teams can collaboratively work on projects in ways no other agent harness can.

Personal Computer is an always on, local merge with Perplexity Computer that works for you 24/7.
It's personal, secure, and works across your files, apps, and sessions through a continuously running Mac mini.
I built the best agent harness, Spacebot
I built Voicebox and gave it a voice.
Now I’m building the data layer, resurrecting Spacedrive
