The SBOM (Sandwich Bill of Materials) spec is a great standards contribution. I'm literally eating Jimmy John's while reading it—and there was no SBOM in sight, so what am I really eating?
[visual-explainer] is an Agent Skill that generates styled HTML explanation pages instead of dense terminal output.
Ars Contexta caught my eye because I already use Obsidian (for this site and personal notes), and I like the idea of using an LLM to help organize information.
"Ars Contexta derives a cognitive architecture—folder structure, context files, processing pipeline, hooks, navigation maps, and note templates—tailored to your domain."
Two projects build UIs from extended SQL syntax: Shaper for dashboards and SQLPage for CRUD/form-driven apps. github.com/taleshape... github.com/sqlpage/S...
🧵 Weeknote 2026-08 highlights: SQL-powered UI tools (Shaper + SQLPage), Ars Contexta for agentic note architecture, a visual-explainer skill for styled HTML explainers, and the sandwich SBOM spec. More in thread 👇
Theoretically, I wouldn't need to go through an age verification process for Reddit because _my account_ is 19 years old.

Former GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke launched Entire (https://entire.io). Their first offering, Entire CLI, is an open source tool to store all context around an agent session in git. One to watch! github.com/entireio/cli
/dev/push is a self-hostable, open source system for deploying with git pushes to simple VPS. Curious how it compares to Fly, which I currently use for Peaklet.
The Story of Wall Street Raider was surprisingly enjoyable. I don't usually get into software archaeology tales, but this was nicely written and an interesting story.
tabctl is a CLI tool to work with browser tabs, specifically designed to help agents work with tabs in a non-destructive way.
Oat is an incredibly tiny UI component collection. 6KB CSS, 2.2KB JS (minified+gzip). Most common controls, looks good, blazingly fast. https://oat.ink
andurel is a Go web "framework" that glues together well-tested projects (sqlc, templ, echo, datastar, river) with a CLI for code generation. 20+ years ago, I did something similar for Python — I appreciate this approach!
Simon Willison introduced Showboat and Rodney, two tools to let AI agents demo what they've built. Showboat constructs Markdown docs showing commands + output. Rodney is a CLI for Chrome via devtools protocol.
🧵 Weeknote 2026-07 highlights: Simon Willison's new tools for AI agents to demo their work, a tiny 6KB CSS component library, a new startup from former GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke, and more!
Vocal Guide by Jesper Ordrup suggests techniques for using your voice better when singing.
Tern Setups makes portable monitor setups. A 16" 1200P monitor and stand for $349, or go 4K for $499. Looks useful for working on the go!
Simon Willison wrote about StrongDM's "software factory" approach using AI. Most interesting: their Digital Twin Universe clones third-party services by feeding API docs to agents.
🏰 This week: Abbreviated weeknote—back from Disney & Universal! AI software factories with digital twins, portable monitor setups, and vocal coaching. 🧵
ESP32-Cheap-Yellow-Display: Building a community around a cheap ESP32 with touch screen display. Only about $15, great for lots of projects!
Beyond Peaklet, I haven't been a game developer. Even so, I can appreciate the awesome free (for all uses!) game assets at Kenney: https://kenney.nl
🎢 This week: Light weeknote—off to Disney/Universal! But still found great free game assets from Kenney and a cool $15 ESP32 display project. 🧵
Ahh, thanks for the correction! I've updated the reference on my site.
This guide is absolute gold from @mitchellh.com (creator of Terraform) on how he started to use AI agents, step-by-step.
It's practical, step by step & how he changed how he works (without getting overloaded or anxious.)
