As AI agents replace human workflows, your observability stack must evolve. A practical guide to tracing LLM calls, multi-agent chains, and tool use with OpenTelemetry — from a Tech Lead who's been there.
Prompt engineering gets you to demo. Context engineering gets you to production. Learn how controlling what information each agent receives determines whether your agentic system is reliable or brittle.
Traditional OAuth and service accounts don't work for multi-agent AI systems. Here's what Uber and Auth0 discovered — and how to design agent identity the right way.
When AI agents write their own mocks, green tests prove only internal consistency — not correctness. A tech lead's guide to closing the verification gap before it costs you a production incident.
A practical guide to building an AI-powered monitoring dashboard that shows EC2 health, web platform status, CI/CD quality checks, and uses Claude to interpret anomalies in plain English.
After deploying multi-agent AI systems at scale, here are the failure patterns we hit and the resilience patterns that saved us. Practical guide for engineering teams.
MAF 1.0 merges AutoGen and Semantic Kernel into one production SDK — but the real story is CodeAct, which cuts token consumption 63.9% by having the model write Python programs instead of making individual tool calls. Here's what changes for .NET teams building agentic systems.
Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.8 ships with Dynamic Workflows — a system where one Claude orchestrates up to 1,000 parallel subagents in a single session. The Bun-to-Rust port in 11 days is the proof of concept. Here's what this means for real engineering teams.
A Tech Lead's field notes from shipping production AI agents — why custom agents still matter, how to avoid the infra money pit, the architecture pattern that actually works, and why understanding your client matters more than understanding transformers.
Anthropic's Model Context Protocol hit 97M installs and joined the Linux Foundation. As a Technical Lead, here's what this means for how we build AI systems today and tomorrow.
OpenAI's GPT-5.4 crosses the human baseline on OSWorld-V with native computer-use, 1M token context, and parallel tool calling. Here's what it actually means for teams building AI systems in 2026.
Stripe's autonomous agents write 1,300 PRs per week. OpenAI extended its Responses API with shell tools. AWS launched Strands Labs. The agentic shift is no longer theoretical — here's what it looks like in the real world.
The Model Context Protocol crossed 10,000 published servers under the Linux Foundation's Agentic AI Foundation. As someone who's integrated dozens of AI systems, here's why this number matters more than any benchmark.
90% of developers now use AI at work. But the real shift in March 2026 is agents moving from suggestion-mode to autonomous execution. Here's what that actually looks like in production systems and what breaks when you go too far too fast.
Anthropic's Agent Teams feature in Claude Opus 4.6 lets multiple Claude Code instances work in parallel on the same codebase. Here's the architectural model, real-world performance data, and what actually changes for teams building production software.
GPT-5.4 scored 75% on OSWorld-Verified, surpassing human baseline of 72.4%. Here's what this means for developers building agentic systems in 2026, with real API examples and architectural patterns.
How to build a coordinated Claude agent team: defining agent skills, assigning responsibilities, orchestrating multi-agent workflows, and collaborating across agents to deliver a real software product from idea to production.
Research interviews follow structured protocols with distinct phases. How to build an LLM-driven state machine with next_phase() function calling and dynamic instruction swapping via set_chat_ctx().
Three personas, one infrastructure. How to build an AI interviewer that asks questions, a coach that gives feedback, and an evaluator that scores fairly — all with system prompts, function calling, and state machines.
I experimented with CrewAI and LangGraph to build multi-agent workflows. Some were genuinely useful, some were expensive toys. Here's what I learned.
