Notes on agent-native workflow, prompt-composed systems, and the files your agents actually read.

- 2026-07-20 — [Make policies explicit, or your agents will improvise them](/blog/make-policies-explicit) — Humans fill policy gaps with judgment. Agents fill them with confident improvisation. Kanban's 'make policies explicit' becomes load-bearing — as legible workspace artifacts, not tribal knowledge.
- 2026-07-16 — [The AI Productivity Paradox: Flow Metrics for Agentic Delivery](/blog/flow-metrics-for-agentic-delivery) — AI lifts individual output and leaves system delivery flat — the productivity paradox nobody can measure. Issue #1 of an ongoing report: our board's real flow numbers, definitions and all.
- 2026-07-08 — [Spec-driven development works — until the spec stops being true](/blog/spec-driven-development) — Every SDD guide says the spec should be a living artifact. No tool in the wave actually delivers that — because 'living' is a process property, not a document format. That's what a board is for.
- 2026-06-29 — [Instruction Bleed: when your SKILL.md files quietly interfere](/blog/instruction-bleed-explainer) — A new arXiv paper names a real failure mode: edit one prompt module and an unrelated one's behavior shifts. What it measured — and what it doesn't claim.
- 2026-06-29 — [What Instruction Bleed means if you write SKILL.md / AGENTS.md](/blog/instruction-bleed-for-skill-authors) — The practitioner's read on instruction bleed: where cross-module interference is most likely to bite, and the cheap check the paper hands you.
