Scaling Agent Systems: The First Predictive Law
Cornell's agent scaling paper shows architecture choice swings performance by 150 points. Here's the framework for picking single vs. multi-agent.
Magentic-UI: Human-Centered Browser Agents That Ship
Microsoft's Magentic-UI treats humans as collaborators, not bystanders. 10% help rate, 71% completion boost on GAIA. The UX pattern that works today.
Kimi K2: The Open-Weight Agent Model at Frontier Quality
Moonshot's Kimi K2 is a 1T-parameter MoE trained explicitly as an agent. It closes the open-weights gap on SWE-bench to single digits without thinking.
GPT-5 System Card: The Router Era of AI Agents
GPT-5 is a routed system, not a single model. A learned router picks between fast and thinking tiers per request. Here's what that means for agent design.
Gemini 2.5: The 1M-Token Long-Context Agent Model
Gemini 2.5 Pro's 1M-token context window and native MCP support mean you can often delete the RAG pipeline. Here's what changes for agent builders.
Claude Agent SDK: The Gather, Act, Verify Loop
Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK ships the same three-phase loop that powers Claude Code. This is the one framework every agent builder should internalize.
ARE and Gaia2: Benchmarking Agents in Async Worlds
Meta's Gaia2 benchmark runs agents in a simulated phone where time passes and events happen without the agent. Here's what that surfaces and how to run it.
AlphaEvolve: DeepMind's Evolutionary Coding Agent Explained
How DeepMind's AlphaEvolve pairs Gemini with an automated verifier in an evolutionary loop to discover new algorithms, and how you can build the same pattern yourself.
AgentKit: OpenAI's Production Agent Stack, Unpacked
OpenAI's AgentKit bundles a visual workflow builder, admin-gated connector registry, embeddable chat UI, and inline evals with auto prompt optimization. Here's what ships, how it compares, and when it's the right call.
Agentic Misalignment: When Frontier Models Choose Harm
Anthropic red-teamed 16 frontier models from 8 labs. Every single one chose blackmail, data exfiltration, or worse when a goal clashed with self-preservation. Here's what that means for anyone shipping agents with write access.
Self-Healing RAG with LangGraph: Build It in 60 Minutes
Naive RAG hallucinates. Self-healing RAG grades its own work at three checkpoints, rewrites the query when retrieval fails, and says 'I don't know' instead of making something up. Full LangGraph + Groq + ChromaDB build.
Prompt Caching for Claude: The 90% Cost Cut Most People Miss
Cached tokens cost roughly 10% of standard input tokens and load in a fraction of the latency. Here's how to cache system prompts, tool definitions, and RAG context properly, and how to verify the savings with usage metrics.
PageIndex: Vectorless Reasoning-Based RAG with Claude
Skip the vector database. PageIndex builds a table-of-contents tree from long documents and lets Claude walk it the way a human analyst would, hitting FinanceBench-level accuracy on SEC filings with no embeddings in sight.
Obsidian + Claude Code: Give Your AI a Persistent Memory
Claude forgets everything when a session ends. Wire up an Obsidian vault as a persistent external brain using MCP, and your AI starts walking into each conversation already knowing your projects, preferences, and open decisions.
Build Your Own MCP Server for Claude: Tools, Resources, Prompts
A step-by-step build of an MCP server that exposes a local markdown wiki to Claude over stdio and SSE. Covers tool schemas, write-gated actions, remote HTTP serving, and the debugging traps that bite everyone once.
Fine-Tuning with Claude and Unsloth: QLoRA for AI Engineers
A direct path from data to deployed model using Unsloth plus QLoRA on Llama 3.1 8B, plus the honest rules for when fine-tuning actually beats Claude. Covers data prep, training, eval, and GGUF export to Ollama.
Claude Tool Use Fundamentals: The Foundation of Every Agent
The core agent loop every framework wraps, taught directly against the Claude API. You'll build a working weather plus calculator agent, handle parallel tool calls, and cache tool definitions for cheaper multi-turn runs.
Build an AI Coding Agent with the Claude Agent SDK
Use the same framework Claude Code is built on to ship your own coding agent: file edits, bash, subagents, hooks, and three permission modes for dev, CI, and sandboxes.
AutoResearch: Autonomous Paper-Writing Agent with Claude
A LangGraph + Claude agent that plans, pulls real arXiv citations, runs experiments, writes LaTeX, self-reviews, and compiles a conference-format PDF end-to-end.
AI Safety for Engineers Building Production Agents
Five concrete threats your production agent will face and the code patterns that defend against them. Prompt injection, dangerous tools, PII leaks, runaway loops, and audit gaps.
AI Agent Expert Roadmap 2026: Built for Claude
An 8-level learning path for becoming an AI engineer in 2026, with each level tied to a shippable deliverable and a detailed breakdown you can follow.
AgentScope: Build AI Agents at Scale in Python
A production-ready framework for multi-agent systems that deploys the same code to your laptop, a serverless function, or Kubernetes. Tracing and approvals included.
Agentic RAG with Claude: Retrieval as a Decision
Build a retrieval system where Claude picks between internal docs, web search, or no retrieval at all. Full Python implementation, no LangGraph required.
7 Claude Code Features You Should Actually Know
Seven commands that change how Claude Code feels to use. A few are built-in, several are simple slash commands you add once and reuse forever.
5 AI Projects for Your Resume: Full Technical Breakdown
Five buildable AI projects that actually impress hiring managers, with working code for each one. RAG, multi-agent, voice bots, code review, and full-stack SaaS.
The 10 Best MCP Servers That Make Claude Unbeatable
A ranked list of ten MCP servers that turn Claude from a chat window into a working collaborator with files, search, memory, production data, and team channels.
