BuildWithAI: Architecting a Serverless DR Toolkit on AWS
Overview I'd been getting more involved in disaster recovery planning lately and kept running into the same gap — a lot of teams on AWS have backups, but not a real Disaster Recovery (DR) plan. No documented runbooks, no tested failover procedures, no RTO/RPO targets tied to business impact. So that became the motivation for this side project: six AI-powered tools that automate the tedious parts of DR planning, built entirely on AWS. In part one of this three-part series, we will walk through the architecture — the serverless stack, the central model config, and the 5-layer cost guardrail system that keeps everything under $10/month (of course, you can set your own threshold; that's just what felt right for this side project). The next two parts will cover prompt engineering for each tool

BuildWithAI: What Broke, What I Learned, What's Next
Overview The architecture and the prompts are covered. Now for the part that usually gets left out: what actually broke, what could be better, and how to deploy the whole thing on your own AWS account. So far we've gone through the serverless stack and 5-layer cost guardrails, then the system prompt pattern and the prompt engineering behind all six tools. This final part is the practical side — the gotchas from development and a step-by-step guide so you can fork the repo and get it running yourself. Things that broke Bedrock model access First deploy went fine. Lambda functions created, API Gateway live, DynamoDB provisioned. Then the first endpoint returned access denied from Bedrock. No helpful error message, just a generic denial. The issue: when I first deployed this using Claude Sonn

I Turned My MacBook's Notch Into a Control Center for AI Coding Agents
Every developer using Claude Code knows the pain: you have 5+ terminal sessions running, Claude is asking for permission in one tab, waiting for input in another, and you're buried in a third. You Alt-Tab frantically, lose context, and waste time. So I built CodeIsland — a free, open-source macOS app that turns your MacBook's notch (Dynamic Island) into a real-time dashboard for all your AI coding agents. The Problem When you're running multiple Claude Code sessions across different projects, there's no way to see everything at a glance. You're constantly switching between terminals to: Check which session finished Approve permission requests Answer Claude's questions Monitor usage limits Multiple Claude Code sessions in cmux, with CodeIsland monitoring everything from the notch The Soluti
trunk/98fc38c4eb17c435699cea1a7d3aa84c14458ed9: Add autograd_cache_key to aot_autograd with tests (#178152)
Expose autograd_cache_key in torch._functorch.aot_autograd that wraps prepare_aot_module_simplified to build an AOTConfig and then delegates to the base autograd_cache.autograd_cache_key. This lets callers compute the cache key for a dynamo graph without running the full inductor pipeline. Tests verify that the API produces the same key as torch.compile by capturing the ground-truth key and graph from the inductor pipeline, then calling the new API on the same graph and example inputs. Pull Request resolved: #178152 Approved by: https://github.com/zou3519 ghstack dependencies: #177852 , #177871
