A family photo album made with coding agents: from a dictated prompt on Thursday evening to the first production deploy on Friday, and what is still missing.

HACK_002 recap from Vienna: the Pflegegeld-Prüfer, a care allowance checker, wins Track A1 but misses my advance target of 12 of 14 court cases. It gets 10.
Two hackathons in Vienna, one week apart, and the building only starts at the event. What I still get ready beforehand, and why my code stays home until then.
One /discovery run, several parallel agents, a live-browser test: how I had my own website audited, and why a human still makes every final call.
Sven is my personal AI raven: he folds mailboxes, calendar, CI and server status into one Morning Pulse in Discord. He proposes, I decide and publish.
FeedFoundry renders my Instagram text deterministically from templates, BuilderBob posts on its own and learns from real engagement back into planning.
Three agents run around the clock: Sven scouts AI ideas, BuilderBob runs agenticbuilders.at with 19 cron jobs; session-orchestrator drives a gated coding loop.
An open-source multi-agent tool matures in 9 days across 18 sessions: from the /plan to /evolve lifecycle across four runtimes. What daily self-use made of it.
AI-assisted development has shifted its bottleneck from writing code to judging it. Why verification now matters, from daily practice, not theory.
After two months and 1,052 commits, my autonomous infrastructure's AI moved from OpenClaw to Hermes Agent by Nous Research. The learning loop decided it.
Two weeks after my first hackathon: 1st place at BitGN PAC 2026 at AI Factory Austria, Vienna. Autonomous AI agent, 104 tasks, 5 security layers, blind scoring.
At OpenClaw Hackathon Vienna, 150+ met at House of Innovation. Four people built an AI-powered B2B sales agent in one night, then made a video without sound.
After 3,000+ sessions with Claude Code: what prevents AI agents from drifting in long-running projects. CLAUDE.md, Rules, Session Handovers and Quality Gates.
A week of GitLab migration, n8n automations, an Instagram content pipeline, and the current limits of AI agents.
