Thanks to @sequoia.pub my blog is now on the ATProto! Do I do the Ghost newsletter next?

Stop Generating MCP Servers from REST APIs! This might be the most common MCP antipattern I see, and it's not helped by a bevy of startups and products offering to automate this process for you. Of course, it's tempting: APIs are APIs after all, right? Wrong.

One of the things I've been heads down on lately has been this AI companion for the book Becoming a Principle-Driven Leader by Charles and Chase Koch. I got to work on some interesting problems, develop techniques based on modern andragogy research, and deploy a multiagent system to the public.

I should be more active on this account, maybe when I’m not spending all my waking hours writing

What I think is the most important chapter of AI Agents with Model Context Protocol (MCP), and most difficult to research and write, is now available in early release. In chapter 7, you'll learn how to test, secure, and distribute your MCP servers.

I've finished the first draft of chapter 7 of AI Agents with MCP, which you should be able to see on @oreilly.bsky.social's learning platform either later this month or in March. Before edits, I've written just over 69,000 words, made 22 images, made ~227 physical pages (est), w/ 2 chapters to go

This bout of mania (not really) also got me to write a new issue of The Signal Path, where I talk about the recent explosion in usage patterns for agent coding, memory agents like @void.comind.network, agent orchestration, and goings-on in the MCP world, including chapter 6 of my book going into ER

The image of him fearfully at his door as a disgusting ice pig looms over him is heart rending and enraging.

I can't stop thinking about those pictures of Liam.

I wrote up an internal guide to Claude Code use, then I cleaned it up and made it public. It's wicked long, but use the TOC and use it more as a reference library than a singular article, and I think it should be really helpful!

It's Early Release Day! AI Agents with MCP just had a major release, with additional details added to all existing chapters, as well as the addition of Chapter 6, which covers advanced techniques for building MCP servers.

I’ve started doing this with simple games for my daughter. It’s really fun and I can quickly spin up simple educational word games at her level based on what she likes.

I am reminded of Robin Sloan’s writing on “home cooked” software: www.robinsloan.com/notes/home-c...

I got inspired by @simonwillison.net's simple HTML tool workflow: simonwillison.net/2025/Dec/10/... So I decided to spend a few minutes today to do something similar: tools.kylestratis.com

Just presented this! You can check out the code here: (note: the layout is screwy and config options don't get shown, but not bad for coding by voice while out and about and not even looking at the results until around midnight). No code was actually touched by me. github.com/kylestratis/...

I have a toddler birthday party right now, and an adult birthday party at a brewery this afternoon, so I’m participating in @joereis.bsky.social’s Practical Data Discord vibe coding hackathon purely via mobile using Wispr Flow and @anthropic.com’s Claude Code web. This is wild.

I’ve been writing about it for the past 6 months, I guess it makes sense to actually contribute to MCP too, making more work for myself:
