🔬 New AI Craft
1. Self-Learning Skills: Let AI Coding Agents Learn from Their Own Sessions
A self-improving skill for Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI coding agents — automatically recognizes "golden paths" in a session and extracts them into reusable skills/rules for next time. Unlike the Agent Plan pattern (where the user drives requirement decomposition), this lets the agent meta-learn: harvest successful patterns from history and auto-invoke them when similar tasks arise, enabling iterative evolution.

2. Video-ShotCraft: AI Video Skill Pack for Claude Code & Codex
A Remotion-integrated skill pack that turns AI coding agents into video production tools — 106 shot recipe cards, 161 motion previews, and a production-ready template. It shows how the Agent skill ecosystem expands beyond text/code generation into composable multimodal modules.

3. AI's Real Superpower Isn't Doing More — It's Focus and Followthrough
A reflective essay arguing that AI-enabled "do everything" ambition is driving burnout, not productivity. The real value isn't throughput but selecting what matters and sticking with it. For developers deep in agentic coding, this is a counterintuitive reminder: precision over volume.

🛠️ Tools & Tips
1. Cursor Bridge — Run Claude Code on Your Cursor Subscription
A single Rust binary, zero config, that lets you run Claude Code through your Cursor subscription. One subscription, two tool entry points.

3. It's Not Empowering to Hand Off the Details
A reflection on AI-assisted coding: handing off details isn't liberation. Good work comes from knowing which details to delegate and which to own — a higher-order judgment skill, not an excuse to disengage.
