The narrowing cone of collaboration. It’s the idea behind every workflow I’ve built for Claude Code, and it’s why I can leave implementation running overnight without worrying about what I’ll find in the morning. Here’s the full anatomy, phase by phase:

The death of Ann Widdecombe is deeply distressing. I do not know the full circumstances or motivations, but it looks to be an act of appalling and wicked evil. I am calling on Parliament and the Home Office to provide MPs who have received credible death threats receive proper state-funded security. That absolutely includes Nigel Farage, Reform MPs and any other politician who has been threatened in a way that is beyond the usual social media insults. I myself receive countless death threats, and arrests have been made because of those. Personally, I have found Parliament’s response to be unacceptably relaxed about it all - it seems Reform feel the same. I agree. I also believe that the temperature of political ‘debate' needs to be lowered. Of course there will be robust disagreement, and personal insults will inevitably be dragged into that, but too often, it’s too much. In Britain, there is a line. Or at least there should be. In the run up to the Makerfield by-election, the Daily Mail ran two front pages about Restore Britain in a row. On the Sunday, they linked us to a ‘white supremacy’ summit. On Monday, the headline labelled us as the home for ‘neo-nazis’, quoting somebody from Reform - Reform’s London Mayoral candidate also previously stated we were neo-nazi. Various other outrageous insults have been thrown at our party - from Reform, Green, Labour and other political figures. This is not a healthy way of conducting political debate and it certainly fires people up in a reckless way. But the point remains. Any MP, from any party, who is subject to such foul abuse and threats should be protected by the state. Britain is not the same country as it was 20 years ago, even 10. There are a great number of very dangerous people living among us who want us dead. Those who put themselves in serious harm’s way through engaging with the political process should receive proper security - I include Nigel Farage in that. I will be looking to work with cross-party colleagues to implore the Home Office to reassess the current security arrangements for all MPs. It needs to change.

This is HORRIBLE! The flag doesn't blow in the wind in the Black Flag Remake until you get closer to it. We're in 2026 and they STILL can't get it right. YIKES!

Planning is where most AI coding setups do nothing, and it shows. Mine converts the spec into phased tasks with acceptance criteria and dependency ordering. Then two review agents check the plan: one for integrity, one for traceability, meaning every requirement in the spec maps to a task. Nothing silently dropped. Tasks can live in Tick (my CLI task tracker built for agents), Linear, or plain markdown. Same workflow either way. A plan an agent can execute unsupervised looks different from a plan a human executes. Smaller tasks, stricter acceptance criteria, explicit dependencies. Write plans like that and watch your agents stop wandering.

The world wants me to die. My incurable disease diagnosis became global news. It was omnipresent on social media and 1,900 articles were written in a matter of days. Many were saddened. However, joy dominated the commentary. People pointed to schadenfreude, the pleasure of another's failure. Yes, there’s that. There is a special place in people’s hearts that loves to see others fail, especially when that person’s presence threatens their own psychological stability in some way or helps them feel better about themselves. But, if you look over the social media commentary about me, you’ll see that pattern: “he deserved it.” I deserved it because I challenged death. The crowd was running a deeply rooted psychological script that represents the oldest, most deeply embedded stories of human culture. This was the first story ever written down, 4,000 years ago. Gilgamesh sought eternal life after losing someone he loved, only to have the plant of youth stolen by a serpent as he bathed. Leaving him to accept his mortality. Asclepius became so skilled at rejuvenation that he raised the dead. As punishment, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt to enforce life and death authority. This is the story of Jesus. Pontius Pilate offered a choice between a thief and the immortalist, and the crowd demanded the execution. People need this story conclusion to keep themselves sane. The challenger must lose and the loss must appear deserved. It’s a shield of self preservation. For if death is inevitable, their existence and that of their loved ones is justified and unavoidable. If death is not inevitable, nothing about their reality is safe. I occupy the same philosophical and archetypal position as Gilgamesh, Asclepius and Jesus. This statement will draw outrage and accusations of blasphemy, hubris and narcissism. Nevertheless, it’s the pattern that has repeated itself for thousands of years. Death has been the omnipresent concern of the human race. It encapsulates our greatest fears, joy and curiosities. The discourse around it changes over time; however, the fundamentals remain unchanged. What’s different about this moment, that is unlike any other moment, is that physical death may no longer be inevitable. What if I didn’t deserve it? And what if I am your ally, and not a threat?

@mateusz_palak These statements make me cringe. You’re right ofc. I cringe because I can’t believe anyone would do it.

I can't believe I still see this. STOP WRITING BUSINESS LOGIC IN YOUR VIEWS. STOP PUTTING RAW SQL IN YOUR CONTROLLERS. STOP COMMITTING SECRETS TO YOUR REPO. YOUR FUTURE SELF WILL FIND IT. AND THEY WILL NOT FORGIVE YOU. PLEASE.

@bradmillscan 💯 you do. I still find my workflows useful even with opus / fable intellect. It still comes down to this: the model can’t read your mind!

Serious Q: Do you need superpowers/gstack in the age of Fable/Sol? Frontier labs are spending billions optimizing models. Individual humans are maintaining the top coding skill repos. Aren't the models getting smart enough to allow for less skills & more retardmaxxing?
Shann³@shannholmberg

the 3 planning frameworks I run every AI build through each one forces the same discipline, you plan and align before the agent builds 1. superpowers (jesse vincent) a skill framework for claude code that makes you plan before you build, it works on anything, code or a campaign the superpowers pipeline: > brainstorm the idea, surface the requirements > lock a spec before anything gets built > break the work into small tasks > run subagents in parallel, one per task > review everything against the spec a dev never codes without a spec, and superpowers brings that same discipline to marketing, the brief, the task list, and the review in one flow 2. g-stack (garry tan) full sprint in one methodology, spec all the way to production (even good at monetisation), with its own 23+ specialist skills the g-stack sprint: > spec the work, then build it > review it through separate lenses, CEO, eng, design, devex > QA it, then ship > each lens catches what the others miss nothing reaches production without passing a reviewer first 3. matt pocock's skills grill-first, it interviews you before it builds anything the pocock grill loop: > grill-me and grill-with-docs question you until every decision is resolved > you and the agent end up using the same words for the same things > then to-spec, implement with TDD, and code-review the grilling avoids misalignment, the reason AI output comes out generic is usually the agent guessing run them in sequence, pocock's grilling first so you know what you want, then superpowers or g-stack to plan and ship it. the same order runs a launch or a positioning doc as cleanly as it runs code

Getting drunk on Saturday may seem cool but have you ever worked out, eaten well, gone to bed at a reasonable hour, and woke up on Sunday morning feeling incredible?

My favourite trick in the whole system: the bridge. The problem: finishing one phase and starting the next in the same context drags stale history along. Starting a fresh session loses the flow. The fix: when a phase concludes, a bridge skill enters plan mode with deterministic continuation instructions. Next phase is computed from state on disk, not remembered. Fresh context, zero lost momentum. It feels like the workflow just keeps moving. Under the hood, every phase is a clean start.

"AI-generated code is slop." Unsupervised, unspecified, unreviewed AI code is slop. Agreed. Code built from a validated thousand-line spec, written test-first, committed per task, and checked by independent review agents against that spec is cleaner than what most of us write by hand. I know because I've done both for a living. The quality argument was never about the model. It's about the system around it.
