Episode notes
Builder Agent Was Underused
- Nathaniel built a builder agent but found he rarely uses it because his coding needs are iterative and need frequent feedback.
- The builder is useful occasionally but became one of his least-used agents.
Research Agents Power Continuous Intelligence
- Nathaniel created research agents to feed AIDB Intelligence's Opportunity Radars and Maturity Maps continuously.
- He calibrated their source-quality filters and writing but still gained steady, valuable research outputs.
Calibrate Quality And Watch Heartbeats
- Expect to calibrate agent quality and writing; set standards for good vs. poor sources.
- Monitor heartbeats because they can be flaky and may need resets from time to time.
