It forces you to think about building in a whole new way.
Matt Shumer@mattshumer_The cool thing about https://agent-s.app being a hobby project is I spend very little time on it. So I can't bloat it with features like other agents do. The base agent has to be good enough to support everything natively. Hobby projects force you to build differently.
Make it a goal to spend less than one hour a week on it. It'll force you to really get at the core of what you're trying to do.

I only add complexity if I truly need it personally.
For Agent-S, I needed to get more actual work done on the go, so I had Codex build me a mobile app.
And because the platform is so simple, it was able to one-shot the app with almost no effort on my end.
It all compounds :)

Basically, this approach means the base agent is insanely capable, and can do pretty much everything you ask it.
I use it for almost everything now.
I've literally spent less time building this than I used to spend debugging OpenClaw.
