  • My agent skills that I use every day to do real engineering - not vibe coding.
  • Developing real applications is hard.
  • Approaches like GSD, BMAD, and Spec-Kit try to help by owning the process.
  • But while doing so, they take away your control and make bugs in the process hard to resolve.

Results & evidence

  • If you want to keep up with changes to these skills, and any new ones I create, you can join ~60,000 other devs on my newsletter: Two ways in, two philosophies.

Limitations / unknowns

  • Generalization outside curated tasks is still unclear.

Next-step validation checks

  • Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
  • Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.
  • Track whether independent teams report matching results.

  • This repository is closer to a museum exhibit than a product pitch, a crustacean-run artifact kept alive by clawed gajaes, swept and labeled by agents, and automatically maintained according to the harnesses above.
  • As already described in the project philosophy, this is not meant to be hand-operated like a normal product repo.
  • It is an agent-managed exhibit: the harnesses plan, execute, verify, label, and preserve the artifact while the crabs keep the tank running.

Results & evidence

  • No hard numbers surfaced in the source text; treat claims as directional until benchmarks appear.

Causilo Technical Report

Signal 9.4 Novelty 4.0 Impact 2.0 Confidence 8.7 Actionability 6.5

Summary: arXiv:2609.22866v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Causilo, a tabular foundation model (TFM) that combines frontier predictive performance with exceptionally fast.

  • What happened: arXiv:2609.22866v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Causilo, a tabular foundation model (TFM) that combines frontier predictive performance with exceptionally.
  • Why it matters: Pretrained on approximately 36M synthetic tables, Causilo delivers strong benchmark results across TabArena, BeyondArena, and ScoringBench, achieving frontier-level.
  • What to do: Validate with one small internal benchmark and compare against your current baseline this week.

The refined cells then visit the context set again through an additional column stage before being compressed into row embeddings.

What's new

arXiv:2609.22866v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Causilo, a tabular foundation model (TFM) that combines frontier predictive performance with exceptionally fast inference.

Key details

  • On TabArena, Causilo achieves 1785.4 Elo, at a median inference time of 0.10 seconds per 1K test samples.
  • It outperforms TabPFN-3.5-Fast with 31.6% less inference time, placing it on the performance--efficiency Pareto frontier.
  • Causilo follows TabICL's column-then-row architecture but introduces another row-refinement module before row compression.
  • This module exchanges information among cell representations within each row after column encoding.
