very useful insight from The Pragmatic Engineer newsletter about what happened with Blocks ๐
๐ newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/the-pulse...
seems like codex's multi-agent is not quite ready for prime time ๐ง been hitting a bunch of issues mostly related to how the main agent and the subagents interact and their lifecycles
(using 5.4 xhigh)
(and yes well I guess it's to be expected, it's experimental for a reason ๐)
been catching up with the AI world and was reading Simon Willisonโs Weblog - in particular his Agentic Engineering Patterns section: simonwillison.net/guides/agen...
decided to read through it and extract some improvements for to agentsparty.dev ... quite a beefy addition ๐ฟ
ICYMI: I built a D&D-themed multi-agent orchestration framework and would love your help testing it ๐ฒ ๐
it's got DMs, adventuring parties, journals, and a "throne room" for meta-orchestration (and its OSS)
[bun, preact, astro + gemini 3.1]

no shade on anyone but damn if you are doing agentic coding for webapps and you are not using the chrome-devtools MCP... why
it's such a massively useful tool
(this one github.com/ChromeDevTo... )
finally got access to codex 5.3 ๐๐ฟ time to put it to the test and see how it does
i just tried something and i liked the idea so i kept following in
basically: break it, fix it, make it yours, and tell me what you find ๐ง
here's where I could use help: I've got limited agent availability on my machine, so I haven't tested this across different tools yet
if you're using Cloud, Codex, or others - try it out? each has its own quirks with subagents
and OFC it's fully open source: github.com/kelset/agen...
very much a personal time project and not in its final form, but I think there's something here worth exploring
used it as an excuse to experiment with Gemini 3 (and when I could, 3.1 pro preview) plus try out bun, preact, and astro
the site's pretty simple - configure your setup, click a button, get a zip file, tweak it locally however you want
THEN at some point I was like: I want people to play with this, especially folks new to multi-agent stuff
could've made it a giant gist... buuuuuuuuut then I built a website instead ๐๐๐๐๐

shout-out to James who's been brainstorming this stuff with me!!! bouncing ideas around made this way more fun ๐ค๐ค๐ค
ran into the classic problem: sub-agents need to communicate but there are limitations
solution? journals. the party has a journal, the game master has a journal, they coordinate through them
kept iterating, added personalities, even built a "throne room" meta-level ๐
recently I tried multi-agent stuff hands-on and realized itโs basically d&d: you've got a game master (main agent) directing a party of sub-agents, each with their own special abilities to tackle tasks
naturally, I leaned into the theme hard and built the whole thing like so ๐งโโ๏ธ
soooOOOO I've been nerding out on multi-agent orchestration lately and ended up building something silly that I kinda want to share ๐ฒ๐ค
(beware, wall of text incoming ๐งต)

Regardless of your political positions, if you are not disgusted by the US and Israel bombing a school you should prob do a morality check.
(yes, yes, we know that based on Israeli intelligence there were terrorists and nuclear weapons in the basement...)

big step recently: after 8+ years, I finished my therapy journey with my main therapist. It has run its course, and made me a much better human ๐ง
it doesn't mean ofc that I'm perfect, but that the type of work i could do with them is... dealt with, for now.
Next up? CBT ๐ฟ
the most sustainable career advice i ever got: treat your energy like a finite resource, because it is ๐
no amount of coffee or hustle culture tweets will change that ๐
a couple things i added to my personal machine gemini settings ๐๐ฟ
uhm i feel i lost complete touch lately with the London tech scene. what meetups are folks going to these days? or are we past that, and now there are other ways/places devs people to nerd out about stuff?
greenfield PSA: you don't need to maintain a huge project to "be an OSS person" - helping triage issues, reviewing PRs, answering questions in discussions... all of this keeps projects alive ๐ฑ๐ค
(and, if anything, make you more trustworthy over time U_U)
kind of bummed that codex still doesn't support subagents/agent team but happily surprised to find that gemini does have them ๐๐๐

who knew 15-year-old me DM'ing D&D 3.5 would end up being perfect training for agent orchestration ๐ค๐ค๐ค
fully agree with this one: www.qu8n.com/posts/most-...
communication skills are key and a true game changer even for devs
