Agentic development
One builder, many agents.
I ship with coding agents running in parallel. Each task gets its own worktree and agent; I write the spec, review the diffs, and merge what's right.
- Orca agent workspace ↗
- Claude Code
- Codex
- OpenCode
This site's redesign was built the same way.
- 1
Spec
Write the task down: scope, constraints, what done looks like. Clear specs are what make agents useful.
- 2
Dispatch
Each task gets its own git worktree and its own agent, several running at once in Orca.
- 3
Review
Read every diff, run it, test it. Agents draft; I decide what ships.
- 4
Ship
Merge, deploy, start the next loop. Smaller changes, faster releases.
