Fowler's daily fragment endorsed Willison's guide, specifically the Red/Green TDD pattern. Called him "one of my most reliable sources for information about LLMs and programming." Distinguished vibe coding from agentic engineering. His Thoughtworks team is formalizing "knowledge priming as infrastructure" — treating project context documents (CLAUDE.md, SPEC.md) as first-class infrastructure. When Fowler stamps a methodology, enterprise adoption follows. (martinfowler.com)

1. Flip your multi-model pipeline to review-then-generate. Instead of using a reasoning model to plan before code generation, let the specialist generate freely and use reasoning tokens for review. Paper shows 90.2% pass@1 vs 87.2% for the planning pattern. Source 2. Audit you...

A GitHub Issue. No code, no credentials, no access. Just a paragraph of English that tells an AI agent to copy your private repo into a public comment. That's GitLost, and it works whether the agent runs on Copilot, Claude, Gemini, or Codex. (Noma Security) Noma Security discl...
1. Set package cooldown to 72 hours across all your package managers. pnpm: resolution-time=72h, uv: --exclude-newer, npm via .npmrc. This single config change would have protected you from the LiteLLM attack. Willison's survey covers all seven managers. 2. Install Lasso Secur...
Three independent sources — Simon Willison at the Pragmatic Summit, blog.tedivm.com's coding agent guide, and Anthropic's 2026 Trends Report — converged in March 2026 on the same conclusion: the highest-leverage skill in AI-assisted development is no longer prompt engineering...
A GitHub repo cataloging Claude Code tips doesn't normally warrant a top story. But shanraisshan/claude-code-best-practice at 53.4K stars isn't a tips list anymore. It's the de facto reference for how an entire generation of developers is learning to work with AI coding agents...
