A lot of agentic software development feels like cowboy coding, set it up, let it rip and see what it figures out.

The slightest amount of guidance, input from experience can make a huge difference.

yeah, to some extent. I've been pulling repos to play around but I've now got a hard fork of paseo; I ripped out anything related to github. I upgraded the relay with security features to prevent abuse. I'm in the process of adding the first "real" large feature update that'll let the agents work over the relay with one another which will let me add compute wherever I find it. In the process of adding a browser plugin that will let me pull up pages for context to work on whatever (I don't trust even agents for searching the web).

And it's quite fascinating. Still dont think there's trillions of TAM out there if Qwen3.8-Flash-Next runs fast enough on $3k (before memory cartel) pricing.
