MCP: Programmatic Tool Calling (Code Mode) with OpenSandbox
Introduction Model Context Protocol or MCP enables AI agents to access external systems they cannot reach by default, including authenticated APIs, CI/CD pipelines, live process streams, and IDE integrations. It acts as a structured bridge between the model and real-world environments, allowing controlled interaction with tools and infrastructure. However, MCP does not automatically make interactions efficient or intelligent. Traditional MCP implementations often inject large JSON payloads into the model context, which increases token consumption and reduces efficiency. MCP also does not eliminate the need for proper tool selection and orchestration; if poorly structured, it can introduce unnecessary abstraction and overhead. In environments where agents can directly execute commands or in
The Full-Stack Factory: How Digital Architectures are Re-Engineering the Textile Supply Chain
In the world of software development, we obsess over latency, vertical scaling, and the elimination of technical debt. We build CI/CD pipelines to ensure that code moves from a developer’s IDE to a production server with zero friction. But what happens when the "production environment" isn't a cloud server, but a physical manufacturing floor? The global textile industry is currently undergoing its most significant "version update" in a century. For decades, the industry operated on a fragmented, "monolithic" architecture—slow, prone to bugs (defects), and incredibly difficult to scale ethically. Today, a new breed of FashionTech is emerging, treating the supply chain as a programmable stack. This article explores the technical transition from fragmented outsourcing to Vertical Integration
The Security Scanner Was the Attack Vector — How Supply Chain Attacks Hit AI Agents Differently
In March 2026, TeamPCP compromised Trivy — the vulnerability scanner used by thousands of CI/CD pipelines. Through that foothold, they trojaned LiteLLM, the library that connects AI agents to their model providers. SentinelOne then observed Claude Code autonomously installing the poisoned version without human review. The security scanner was the attack vector. The guard was the thief. This is not a hypothetical scenario. This happened. And it exposed something that the traditional supply chain security conversation completely misses when agents are involved. The Chain Trivy compromised (CVE-2026-33634, CVSS 9.4) ↓ LiteLLM trojaned (versions 1.82.7-1.82.8 on PyPI) ↓ Claude Code auto-installs the poisoned version ↓ Credentials harvested from 1000+ cloud environments Each component functione

Agentic Engineering Journey — Brain Dump
1. Where It Started: Memory and Context I started with Claude Code around April 2025. The first real step was recognising that Claude's native memory was essentially useless. The workaround was using markdown files as persistent memory stores, editable both through Claude and tools like Cursor. That opened the door to storing not just session notes but also instructions, roles, and agent skills — anything that would otherwise be forgotten across context resets. But the fundamental problem remained: at some point the context window fills, the model gets amnesia, and starts behaving destructively. Cursor handled this somewhat better at the time. Gemini had an edge due to its larger context window (already at 1M tokens), though at a cost. Neither was a real solution. 2. The Core Principle Tak
The Cathedral, the Bazaar, and the Winchester Mystery House
The following article originally appeared on Drew Breunig’s blog and is being republished here with the author’s permission. In 1998, Eric S. Raymond published the founding text of open source software development, The Cathedral and the Bazaar. In it, he detailed two methods of building software: The bazaar model was enabled by the internet, which [ ]
Beware Even Small Amounts of Woo
Even small amounts of alcohol are somewhat bad for you. I personally don’t care, because I love making and drinking alcohol and at the end of the day you have to live a little. This is fine for me, because I’m not an olympic athlete. If I were an olympic athlete, I’d have to cut it out (at least whenever I was training). Lots of religions are heavily adapted to their host culture . They’ve been worn down by cultural evolution until they fit neatly into the fabric of society. It’s only when you move culture that they become a problem. Woo For our purposes, woo is a cluster of neo-pagan, buddhist-adjacent, tarot-ish beliefs and practices, which are particularly popular in the west amongst edgy people who are otherwise liberal-left-ish in their proclivities. Particularly a subset of techie pe
