AI practice

I have been running agentic systems in production daily since February 2026. Here is what that means in practice, and what I think it changes about the job.

How I work with it

I build with it daily, and I run what I build

The system I run

Frankenverse: A Self-Hosted Agentic System

A production agentic system I built and run every day. My own knowledge base wired to Claude through a self-hosted MCP server, with custom skills and workflows that do the everyday work and run unattended on a schedule.

Start date: Feb 2026
Type: Personal Project
Duration: 7 Months
Highlights
  • Self-hosted an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server on my own VPS - encrypted at rest, reachable remotely over HTTPS and WebDAV - so agents can read and write a live knowledge base from anywhere.
  • Built a library of custom Claude Code skills and sub-agents that run autonomously: routing inputs, holding state across sessions, and taking real actions (scheduling, reminders, external API calls) rather than one-shot prompting.
  • Owned the agent architecture end-to-end - orchestration, tool use, guardrails, model selection, and change control on the agent definitions themselves - the same production concerns an AI-product team faces.
  • I operate it daily as a real dependency, not a demo. The difference between having used agents and having lived with them in production.
You may be wondering...

How do you actually work with it?

Claude Code every day, with Cursor alongside it. I use it to argue out a design before any code exists, to document a codebase I have never seen, to stand up an MVP (see the "Create MVP" tool below), and to write and refactor the code itself.

What it has not changed is who is accountable for the result. I still have to know whether the answer is right.

You may be wondering...

Will it replace developers?

No, but it moves the job. Less of the week goes on writing the code and more of it goes on deciding what should exist and directing the work.

That shift is the part I care about, and it is a people problem before it is a tooling one. Coaching was my first profession, so getting a team to actually take up a new way of working is the thing I have most practice at. I do it first myself, then bring people with me.
