Follow up from my last post; lots were asking for more examples. I will be around if anybody has questions this morning.

Can it work without Linear, using md files?

Hey -- sorry was out of town so didn't see this! It could definitely work without Linear. You'd need to modify the command for the linear stuff to just write to MD files and make sure you pass those through to the other agents.

Anyone tried Conductor? I use Claude Code and like the workflow, not sure if adding Conductor makes sense or not.

No, but I will check it out.

All of this stuff seems completely insane to me and something my coding agent should handle for me. And it probably will in a year.

I feel the same. We’re still in the very early days of AI agents. Honestly, just orchestrating CC subagents alone could already be a killer product.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately!

I was bored yesterday and I tried to vibe code a simple react app yesterday using claude code and it was basically useless. It created a good shell of a code initially, but after 10 minutes I basically had to take over (It would be a feature, then regress the previous.)

Am I the only one convinced that all of the hype around coding agents like codex and claude is 85% BS ?

I’ve got this down to a science.
