Never Let Claude Code Auto-Compact Again
Auto-compact fires when the context is full — not when your task is at a clean boundary. Here's how to stay in control with a status line, manual compact instructions, and a HANDOFF.md habit.
I spend my days breaking AI coding tools so you don't have to. Claude Code, Codex whatever's next—I test everything, keep what works, and send you the good parts. No fluff. No filler.
No spam. 1–2 emails a week. Unsubscribe anytime.
Specific commands. Actual workflows. Things you can use before you finish your coffee—not after three hours of 'prerequisites.'
Real implementations from production work. I'll show you exactly what I did, why it worked (or hilariously didn't), and how to adapt it for your stuff.
That task you keep putting off because it's tedious? Let's automate it. Those context-switches killing your focus? Let's fix that. More building, less wrestling.
New AI tools emerge weekly. Most are noise. I'll tell you which ones are actually worth your time—before everyone else catches on.

New AI tools worth your attention
Yep. Genuinely. If I ever add paid extras, the newsletter itself stays free. Pinky promise.
1–2 times a week. If I don't have something useful to share, I don't hit send. Novel concept, I know.
Nope. I explain things simply, then show the practical steps. Power users still get depth—but nobody gets left behind.
Every single one. Browse the archive, catch up at your own pace, binge if that's your thing.
One click. Every email. No guilt trip, no 'are you SURE?' nonsense. We're adults here.
I've been coding for 15 years. The last 4? Deep in AI tools—testing everything, breaking most of it, keeping what actually works.
Every day, I experiment. Every week, I share what I've learned. Not theory. Not hype. Just the stuff that makes coding feel less like wrestling and more like... vibing.
AI tools aren't replacing us. They're amplifying what we can do. Master them now, build things you couldn't before.
