The more I use agents, the more I think the human job is the bread, not the meat.
Sweat the idea up front.
Let agents do the messy middle.
Then actually use the thing and feed back what you learn.
The middle is getting cheaper. The bookends are where product judgment compounds.
Users agree with the framing that humans provide product judgment bookends while AI agents handle the messy middle, seeing it as a useful way to rethink AI workflows.
@trevin @kieranklaassen 💯💯💯
@awkward_andyy Right now I see it the other way around. How to use /goal (and Claude Code dynamic workflows) to use CE skills.
@trevin Interesting! Hadn’t considered flipping it around, will try that today. Thanks Trevin!
@trevin With the rise of /goal, do you see a way of integrating it into the CE workflow for executing the messy middle?
@trevin I used to powerlift so I call it the barbell shaped distribution of work, but I think I like sandwiches better..
@awkward_andyy Think of skills as both orchestrators and tools. If you think of them also as the latter you can start seeing the matrix differently!
@trevin Yep I believe this is also what @balajis means by AI is middle to middle
@trevin @danshipper I realised a while ago that I'm definitely the bottleneck
