I've transcended sidebar. I've been slowly turning my IDE into a Windows XP-inspired desktop. Agent threads are AIM chats, the background is a shader that reacts to thread activity, and all the fun lil apps are there too.

markdown all the way down internally, figma has talked about building something like this for 6+ years, at least the entire time i was there. in hindsight it makes perfect sense to have waited until now looking forward to multiplayer markdown editing with agents

as someone who grew up in the bay area & has worked in tech the vast majority of my career…what the hell is sf tech week

something silly: flying around with an agent in a procedurally generated 3D world

I was inspired by this, so I rebuilt it as a bb plugin that any agent can use. Then Opus 5.5 used it to make a synth we can play together. We're trading harmonies here while I tweak the controls :)

made entirely by Opus 5.5 + @get_bb_app

We talk a lot about how AI makes it easy to churn out slop, as if AI and craft are at odds. What's often overlooked: building and iterating this quickly gives us so many more reps to develop skills, taste, and judgment. Craft is built through practice.

Claude Opus 5.5 might be one of the best design partners I’ve had as a PM. I’ll ramble through messy, half-formed thoughts on the user problems to solve, usability considerations, constraints, how the system might evolve, how the product should feel. It just... gets it.
