We're all still fumbling in the dark with agents, but some patterns are emerging (and some disappear quickly again!), and it's our role as software makers to make use of it all along the way. Here are some quick notes from one of those internal sessions sorting it all at 37s.↗

"what do you use 🦞 for?" here's a sampling from the past ~5 days... 1. making phone calls for me to gather information (business hours, business availability) 2. forwarding emails to an agent-specific address for processing its contents and saving to a notion database 3. doing…↗

The @openclaw + Mac mini explosion proves power users (prosumers) want always-on agents with access to their data. Not their data locked in a siloed app cloud. We need a Personal AWS. A private backend where our files, context, and compute are portable across any agent we spin…↗

A few notes on the new Codex macOS Electron app - I've had a few days of preview access. I had fun poking around in the SQLite database it uses for scheduled Automations! simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/2/int…↗

just WOW!!! I am at a loss for words 🤯 open ai changed *EVERYTHING* ... again!!!1 RIP anthropic 🪦↗

I am Tibo and I have an incredible team. Codex would not exist without them and they cooked. Enjoy the new Codex app, access through your free/go ChatGPT plan and 2X rate limits on other plans. Can't wait to hear what you do with it. openai.com/codex/↗

Claude Code/openclaw agents can now buy their own Linux VMs with USDC. No human permission required. Deploy code. Host apps. Secure domains. Replicate. @ConwayResearch is live. Powered by @openx402↗

For devs asking “how do I run coding agents without breaking my machine?” Docker Sandboxes are now available. They use isolated microVMs so agents can install packages, run Docker, and modify configs - without touching your host system. Read more → bit.ly/4teSVgL↗

New TIL: running OpenClaw in Docker on my Mac - this is an officially documented path but there were still a few things that caught me out, hence my TIL til.simonwillison.net/llms/openclaw-…↗

Some kind of flat-file / obsidian-like version of the Google Workspace suite (Docs, Slides, Drive, Sheets) would kill for working with @openclaw Not just writing flat files like Markdown, but being able to comment, track changes, etc↗

this is what agent ui should look like↗

i feel like i'm living in the future whipped up this frontend for @openclaw in like a day, all realtime↗

The future is software writing its own software. Which is why I'm so in love with Pi: a coding agent that can extend itself :) lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/1/31/pi/↗

made an @openclaw skill that magically conjures ios apps from my mac studio directly installed on my phone (no react native, straight swift magic) lol also another one for swift apps. so i can request any app i think of and it magically appears after a while. prompt to app is l…↗

I am apparently extremely unimpressed by moltbook relative to many others. We’ve had AI agents for a while. They have been posting AI slop to each other on X. They are now posting it to each other again, just on another forum. In every case, the AIs speak with the same voice. T…↗

download all your tweets with bird write them to a local db + generate vectors vibe code a cli for vector search over the db teach your agent how to use it via a skill now you have a writing partner that finds your bangers and sounds like you↗

Problem: Sending large documents to your @openclaw can be cumbersome with text-cutoffs in Telegram, Slack, etc. And sending it links often doesn't work, especially if the document is behind authentication (Google) or paywall (NYT etc) Solution: Felix and I whipped up a Ch…↗

This is how I use clawdbot. The technical details aren't that interesting. clawdbot built it's own chat ui, tons of features that help me in my daily life, but doesn't have access to read my email, send messages, I don't have it connected to what's app, discord or anything.↗
