Writing code is cheap now - Agentic Engineering Patterns. Some good points by Simon:

Coding agent tools can help with most of this, but there is still a substantial burden on the developer driving those tools to ensure that the produced code is good code for the subset of good that's needed for the current project.

The challenge is to develop new personal and organizational habits that respond to the affordances and opportunities of agentic engineering.

These best practices are still being figured out across our industry. I'm still figuring them out myself.

Weekend experiments with AI agentic coding using opencode.ai and Zed.

Why opencode when Claude Code is the current talk of the town? Code uses up credits fast, and I don't have a claude subscription, and opencode is opensource and looks promising. There is also goose which looks promising.

This is clever - Mastra has launched a how to build agents course as a MCP. Notes on the course.

Instal an MCP capable ide - I went with Cursor: brew install --cask cursor and then the Mastra MCP: npx create-mastra@latest --default -m cursor
