How a solo founder used Codex and ChatGPT to launch a fashion brand without engineers | Yana Welinder
Aug 17, 2026 · 33 min
Yana Welinder is the solo founder of Yana Bana, an AI-native fashion brand built with AI as her technical co-founder, starting from hand-drawn sketches and ending with runway photos, CAD files for 3D printing, and a live Stripe-connected pre-order site—no engineers required. A former product leader, she brings an operator’s rigor to her creative process: her “fashion prompt” is a detailed spec covering silhouette, volume, fabric behavior, movement, and sound, and watching her use Codex plus comp…

Build an AI code review bot in 30 minutes with Vercel Eve
Aug 5, 2026 · 24 min
AI writes most of my code now, and that created a new problem: a PR queue I couldn’t keep up with. In this episode, I walk through how I built Merge Mommy, a Vercel Eve agent that reads every PR after checks pass, scores it across six risk dimensions, auto-approves the low-risk ones, and pings me in Slack for anything that needs a human. I built the whole thing in one Codex session, it’s SOC 2 compatible, and it’s already cleared my backlog. What you’ll learn: Why AI-generated PRs create a revie…

Claude Opus 5 review: this model is brilliant (but annoying)
Jul 24, 2026 · 25 min
I’m tired of new models. Every week there’s a new benchmark, a new frontier intelligence claim, a new thing to test. But here we are, because Opus 5 just dropped and I’ve had real hands-on time with it, so you’re getting the honest version. This is my full Opus 5 review: personality analysis, live benchmark results from my 7-model How I AI eval, and an actual verdict on whether I’m swapping it in. Spoiler: the answer surprised me. What you’ll learn: Why I think we’ve hit an intelligence overhang…

GPT-5.6 Sol vs. Claude Fable: Why OpenAI’s new model crushes my benchmark
Jul 9, 2026 · 37 min
GPT-5.6 Sol is back, and I ran it through my full How I AI vibe benchmark against GPT-5.6 Terra, Luna, Claude Fable 5, and Sonnet 5 across five categories: PRDs, prototypes, wireframes, debugging, and agentic voice. Sol won by a meaningful margin on my Claire Weighted Index (70% my taste, 30% Terminal Bench 2.1), and I also tested two use cases I can't stop thinking about: building a gamified homework tracking app for my kids in one shot with Codex, and browser automation with Chrome that burned…
What a harness is and how to build one with Claude Agent SDK
Jul 8, 2026 · 25 min
Everybody is saying, “It’s not the model, it’s the harness,” but almost nobody stops to explain what a harness actually is. So I did. I built one live on the show: a Sentry bug-debugging harness for my company ChatPRD, using the Claude Agent SDK, a custom terminal UI built with the Ink library, and opinionated adapters for Sentry, Linear, GitHub, and Vercel. The harness handles evidence gathering, root-cause analysis, and follow-up artifact creation, all without me needing to type “dear agent, p…

Sonnet 5 review: I ran 64 generations to find out if it's worth it
Jun 30, 2026 · 26 min
I’ve been testing every major frontier model release since the start of the year, and when Anthropic dropped Sonnet 5, I wanted more than a vibe check. I got tired of one-off tests I couldn’t repeat or compare over time, so I built something better: the How I AI Bench, a repeatable eval harness I constructed live using Claude Code while recording this episode. I ran Sonnet 5 blind against four other frontier models (Sonnet 4.6, Opus 4.8, GPT-5.5, and Gemini 3 Pro) across PRD quality, prototype g…

He walks through how that team actually worked, why they threw out nearly every process, and how anyone can copy the app…
GLM 5.2: why I’m replacing Opus in Claude Code with this new model
Jun 24, 2026 · 27 min
I put GLM 5.2, the open-weight coding model from Z.AI, through four real tasks inside my actual codebase: a codebase architecture audit, a UI redesign, and a 45-minute autonomous bug-hunting session pulling from Sentry and Vercel logs. Total cost: $3.36 for roughly 6 million tokens, a prioritized bug-fix dashboard I’m actually shipping from, and a landing page redesign that matched Chat PRD’s design system on the first try. What you’ll learn: What “open-weight” actually means and why it matters…

Jun 22, 2026 · 48 min
Brian Grinstead is a distinguished engineer at Mozilla, where he’s worked on Firefox and the web platform since 2013 (he joined to help launch Firefox DevTools). Recently he and his team pointed an agentic bug-finding pipeline at Firefox—a codebase with tens of thousands of files and tens of millions of lines of code—and shipped a record month of security fixes. The viral chart everyone saw gave the credit to Anthropic’s new Mythos model. Brian’s take is that the harness and pipeline did just as…
How to design AI agent loops: schedules, goals, and subagents in Claude Code and Codex
Jun 17, 2026 · 29 min
I break down every loop type from scratch—what a heartbeat, cron, hook, and goal loop actually are, when each one fits, and the five things any effective loop needs before it touches production. Then I build two live loops: a daily aging-PR reviewer in Claude Code that schedules itself at 10:15 a.m. and spins off its own subagents, and a weekly skills-identification loop in Codex that spawns goal-based subagents to validate its own output in real time. What you’ll learn: The plain-English defini…
