GitHub - rtk-ai/rtk: CLI proxy that reduces LLM token consumption by 60-90% on common dev commands. Single Rust binary, zero dependencies CLI proxy that reduces LLM token consumption by 60-90% on common dev commands. Single Rust binary, zero dependencies - rtk-ai/rtk

Such a simple idea... RTK is a CLI wrapper for reducing the token cost generated from all of your favorite tools:

Depicted are my personal savings from a few days of running the tool. Read about RTK, LSP, memory and more:

While True: The Art of Unattended AI What's the point of having an intelligent AI assistant if you still have to babysit it? That's the question that's been haunting the AI automation community, and the answers emerging in late 2025 are ...

The Mozilla 0din.ai team published my guest blog post on the art of unattended AI coding sessions. In the piece, I explore how to move past "babysitting" AI. Showing how persistent iteration beats one-shot perfection and I introduce Maestro. Check out the full post here:

Just look at all these agents... It's incredible. What used to be fractured distraction is now a laser focused beam of productivity across a dozen efforts in parallel. What a time to be in technology.

Worktree support is just so rad... I'm running 3 parallel Auto Runs and 2 other interactive write tasks at the same time.

The adult version of being a kid in a ’90s arcade and realizing you’re about to run out of quarters… looks like I’m buying a third Claude Max plan soon.

Been working on a thing. Free, open source. Maestro is a cross-platform desktop app for orchestrating your fleet of AI agents. Set them loose on complex tasks, check in from your phone, and let them work while you sleep. I'm obsessed with this app.

Jailbreak matters shift from "cute tricks" to tangible problems as GenAI adoption becomes pervasive in our daily applications and productivity workflows:

If you're transcribing audio on Apple Silicon, whisperkit-cli is easily 100x faster than whisper. I spent the past few minutes debugging what I assumed was a failed migration from one tool to the other in my YouTube ingestion pipeline, no, it's just that fast.

I (ab)used some Vibe Coding to knock out intelligent ingestion of my RSS / Podcasts into Obsidian. Next step was adding Twitter, but they want $200/mo for the most basic API access. @hdm.io convinced me that Twitter is all but dead and I will find my content here so I've become the transformation.

Holy hell, never mind. I figured it out. Yes, it's off. That was a hacky experiment that we got sidetracked on and totally forgot about. The API cost alone shall serve my penitence.

I'm too old to be adding another social media platform. But I'm reserving my spot here just in case. It's more likely that if I quit Twitter, I'll end up with LinkedIn solely.
