OpenMontage

OpenMontage is an open source (AGPLv3) agentic video production system. You describe the video you want in plain language, and an AI coding assistant (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf) handles the whole chain: research, scripting, asset generation, editing, and composition. No manual editing w

Zencastr

Zencastr is an all-in-one remote recording platform for podcasters, video creators, and interviewers. Founded in 2016, endorsed by people like Seth Godin and Sam Harris. The pitch: spend less time juggling tools, more time making content.

AgentBox

AgentBox is Rui Carmo's Docker-based sandbox for running coding agents in isolation. The README is refreshingly honest about the state of the art: "There's no perfect way to sandbox agents (yet), but containers are a practical start." MIT licensed, mostly Dockerfile and Makefile.

Kurt Vonnegut - Enough

The pitch is simple: near Claude Opus 4.8

Claude Tag

Claude Tag is Anthropic's way for teams to work with Claude as a teammate inside Slack. Announced June 23, 2026 (beta for Claude Team and Enterprise), it lets Claude join Slack as a team member: admins grant it access to selected channels, tools, data, and codebases, and anyone in a channel can tag

AI and Context Engineering Glossary

Unified terminology reference for AI, Context Engineering, and Knowledge Management. Organized by domain. Each entry links to its dedicated vault note.

Comprehension Debt

Comprehension debt is the gap between what a system does and what its owners actually understand about it. Every line of code you ship without understanding adds to it. You still own the behavior; you just can't explain it, debug it, or safely change it.

Loop Engineering Went Mainstream

In mid-2026, "loop engineering" became a common phrase in AI conversations. Boris Cherny from Anthropic (creator of Claude Code) said it directly: "I don't prompt Claude anymore. My job is to create loops." Peter Steinberger made the same point in his own words: stop prompting coding agents, design
