ANECDOTE

Adobe Hackalong Found Multiple Bugs Fast

  • He recommends Adobe's program for its broad scope including AI-related projects and binaries.
ADVICE

Create Skills For Missing Knowledge And Determinism

  • Use skills when Claude lacks specific knowledge or you need deterministic behavior.
  • Provide credentials, server details, or custom workflows in a skill so Claude doesn't waste time re-learning your environment.
INSIGHT

Run Both Deterministic Workflows And Free Agents

  • Run both a hard-coded methodology and a free-roaming agent and compare outputs to discover gaps.
  • Add any agent-found techniques back into the deterministic workflow to improve coverage next run.
