If you're at the same stage, I really recommend trying @kunchenguid firstmate.
Going to try bitter lesson-ing myself this week
Instead of hand-rolling a deterministic loop to tackle tickets from /to-tickets
I'll just get an agent to delegate to subagents.
Probably more expensive, less reliable, but may have emergent benefits

Just when I was thinking about integrating @AmpCode and @myfirstmate, perfect timing.
Friends, it's time to meet Puck.
It's a your new assistant in Amp.
Fast & always reachable, Puck can: research & read code & check CI, spawn other agents and talk to them, manage all of your threads for you.
The agent to manage your agents.

A real joy killer. So much for the fun conversations: “Should I use Luna Ultra, Terra XHigh, Sol Medium, or wait for Pluto Low ?”
I didn't work on it directly (only contributed the name!) and, frankly, was skeptical whether it changes how I work.
But it 100% changed how I approach new tasks now. Very good.

Is this the end of #Junie? This will lead to the paradox of choice; it's hard to see where @jetbrains is heading.
Claude Agent has become the first third-party AI agent to be built natively into JetBrains IDEs.

Despite Intellij being cited multiple times, I’m surprised they haven’t evaluated Junie yet.
I love seeing feedback on AI coding tools from companies which get feedback from their engineers, and evaluate tools based on this feedback + usage.
Data from CloudKitchens:
- GH Copilot: widely-used
- Cursor: used
- Windsurf: dropped
- Devin: dropped
- Claude Code: evaluating

When you think about it…
It’s taken being almost 40 years old to truly realize this:
Doesn’t matter your career, the job essentially comes down to being a likable guy. Bring bagels for everyone. Buy your boss a coffee, tell him it’s a bribe. Joke around tastefully. If you generally lift spirits, if you make the customers or your coworkers lives better, you’re going to succeed 10x over the “technically skilled but weird” guy.
