Why Does Your AI Agent Forget Things Halfway Through?
Your agent is not forgetting. The session outgrew the job it was opened for. What 210 of my own sessions showed me about scoping AI work properly.
My Raspberry Pi could not carry the dream. A 2018 Mac mini could.
I wanted a small army of agents running 24x7 and a place to host all my homelab apps. The Pi was never going to do it. A colleague handed me his 2018 Mac mini and the whole thing took shape in one sitting.
I treated skills like dotfiles. Then they started spawning subagents.
My CLAUDE.md was turning into a Frankenstein .bashrc. Skills landed and my first instinct was 'dotfiles for Claude'. Half right. Dotfiles sit, skills move.
