Ten coding agent habits checked against the research behind them, from AGENTS.md drift and /compact to model switching, subagents, and review.

Prompt guardrails fail right when coding agents get dangerous. How Docker Sandboxes make YOLO mode safe, plus a ready-made kit for infrastructure work.
Engin Diri
Manage PagerDuty teams, schedules, escalation policies, and services with Pulumi, and wire alerting to the AWS infrastructure in the same program.

Google's Open Knowledge Format: a one-page spec for the LLM wiki. Markdown, one required field, git. Why knowledge as code is your agent loop's missing layer.
Engin Diri
A zero-touch Ollama GPU inference server on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud as one Pulumi program, with OIDC credentials from Pulumi ESC and no static keys.
Engin Diri
Deploy a self-hosted Hermes agent as one Pulumi program across Render, Modal, and Tailscale — a code-executing AI agent with nothing on the public internet.

The unit of work moved from the prompt to the loop. The five pieces of loop engineering, the memory that makes it compound, and what it won't do for you.

AI coding has two shapes: 2x is mostly prompting, 10x is mostly plumbing. The parallel coding playbook, translated to Pulumi.

In a large codebase, the model is the smaller variable. The harness around it does the work: CLAUDE.md, hooks, skills, LSP, MCP, subagents.

A year ago, building an AI agent meant frameworks, RAG, and glue code. The Claude Agent SDK, Codex SDK, and skills replaced most of that middle layer.
