- How to run your product team like a research lab
Dan Shipper explains how product teams can adopt research‑lab practices—hypothesis‑driven experiments, documentation, and iterative learning—to improve decision‑making, foster innovation, and achieve continuous improvement.
- AI Style Guides: How to Help AI Write Like You - Every
Creating a concrete AI style guide with voice, structure, and anti-patterns helps models replicate a writer's idiosyncratic judgment rather than producing generic prose.
- AI should help us produce better code - Agentic Engineering Patterns - Simon Willison's Weblog
Coding agents can improve code quality by handling refactoring, enabling exploratory prototyping, and compounding small quality improvements over time.
- Compound Engineering: How Every Codes With Agents
The piece outlines a four-step 'compound engineering' loop—plan, work, review, compound—to make each coding unit simplify future work, enabling small teams to run multiple products via AI agents.

[Channels Mariah]: It's tiiiiiiiiiime! Today @every is releasing Compound Writing, so now you - yes, you - can install my tendency to overthink a paragraph. I started this past winter by pulling down the Compound Engineering plugin and telling Claude (4.5 at the time, what a model that was, “I want to build this but for writing.” I’ve spent the last six months building and writing with and adding to and tweaking it. The plugin gives Claude Code and Codex skills for interviewing you about an idea, shaping a draft, and questioning whether your argument holds up. When you figure out something useful about your writing, you can save it as guidance for the next piece instead of having the same conversation with the machine indefinitely. I’m standing on the shoulders of giants here in the form of @kieranklaassen and @danshipper, whose work on Compound Engineering and agent-native architectures informed the evolution of this project - what, why, and how. My process, and this plugin, is one way to write with AI. Someone else could start with the same tools and build something completely different, and I’d love to see it. You can use the whole process, borrow one editing skill, or write every word yourself and ask for feedback. No obligation to adopt my entire collection of hang-ups. My hope is that Compound Writing gives you a new playground to discover your own process and grow as a writer. I’ve written a guide to getting started:

INTRODUCING: Sparkle v4 from @every Is your desktop a disaster? We built an agent for that. → sparkle’s agent examines your filesystem and helps you create an organization structure that’s right for how YOU work → it starts with a deep clean. old installers, duplicates, forgotten screenshots, system junk—gone, with your permission. → it runs quietly in the background, keeping everything in order. set a schedule, and your mac stays organized over time instead of drifting back into chaos Declutter your Mac with 0 effort:
@danshipper
I vibe coded a new product on the side while running @every—and today we're launching it for free. It's called Proof, and it’s a live collaborative document editor where humans and AI agents work together in the same doc. It’s built from the ground up for the kinds of documents agents are increasingly writing: bug reports, PRDs, implementation plans, research briefs, copy audits, strategy docs, memos, and proposals. It's fast, free, and open source—available now at

Claude doesn't do image generation. Except it does—just add a skill that connects Nano Banana Pro to your workspace.https://t.co/s8eUsvAl1jYou're welcome.
