Most think of simplification as clean up work, as if we’re just sweeping up the crumbs from the week’s PRs.
True simplification is an act of destruction.
(Which is why we’re afraid to do it).

Creating a loop doesn't have to be that complicated.
1. Chat with your agent to get clear on a new feature
2. Tell the agent to turn the convo into a GitHub milestone with a bunch of well-groomed issues
3. Give the agent a goal of completing the milestone
I wasn't comfy letting agents do most of the work on @CompassCalendar until 2 months ago.
Surprisingly, they haven't ruined it. In fact, the product has become simpler and more reliable.
If you've been considering delegating more to your agents, this is your sign.
Launched on Product Hunt last week. Here's how it went and what I recommend.
[ STATS ]
Daily Rank: 17
PH followers gained: 50 (mostly bots)
Comments: 1
Conversions: 3/256
5. Set up auto-fixing PRs. Error → AI fixes → AI deploys to staging→ AI notifies you → you verify and deploy. This will allow you to get some sleep.
Big day
We're on Product Hunt!
Check out the demo, say hi in the comments - you know the drill :]

After my calendar app failed miserably in 2023, I started building a FinTech app.
I'd go to NYC to pitch it.
Instead of resting at night, I'd find myself in the hotel drawing calendar layouts.
Sometimes I'd skip the conference or meeting to turn a sketch into a prototype.
