How I work today

AI-native engineering

Models write, test and review code under my direction, inside guardrails I design. Every merge is still a human decision.

Agentic workflows

Claude Code daily: plan, build, test and review loops across multi-repo codebases.

Subagents

Specialized agents for research, running tests and writing tests, each on the right model.

Custom skills

Repeatable procedures packaged as skills. Third-party skills get a code review first.

MCP servers

Model Context Protocol connects LLMs to internal tools, code navigation and memory.

Context engineering

CLAUDE.md rules, memory, hooks, tool calling and RAG: the smallest accurate context.

Local LLMs

Self-hosted models on my own Linux server for privacy, cost control and offline work.
