Claude Code runs with your keys. What it can reach by default, which settings.json rules help, why they are not a wall, and how to turn on the built-in sandbox.

Structured Thinking · part 7

Notes preserve a conversation but never structure it. Compress a rambling brief into three named themes and say them out loud while it can still be corrected.

Structured Thinking · part 6

Precision is a resource, not a virtue. Decide how exact the answer needs to be before you start, or the deadline decides it for you at the worst moment.

Structured Thinking · part 5

Analysis with no hypothesis expands to fill the time and yields a folder, not an answer. Commit to a guess on day one, then spend the time killing it.

How to Build a Production AI Agent · part 1

Most agents are three boxes and no way to know if they are still right. This series builds the rest. First step: label the dataset before the agent exists.

Structured Thinking · part 4

Most requests arrive as somebody's private guess at a solution. Reconstructing the real question behind one takes an hour, the cheapest hour in the project.

Structured Thinking · part 3

Most people break a problem into the things they noticed. That is a list, and it tells you nothing about what to do first. Here is the one question that turns it into a tree.

Structured Thinking · part 2

Most problem breakdowns look organized and are secretly broken. MECE thinking is the two-part test that catches it: no overlap, no gaps.

Structured Thinking · part 1

The Pyramid Principle says lead every email, deck, or update with the conclusion, then support it underneath. Here's why readers who scan need that order.

Agents in Production · part 11

LLM judges have measured biases toward length and confident wrong answers. Check yours against real human labels before it gates anything you actually ship.

The Delivery Layer · part 2

A review meeting looks technical but runs as a social auction. The research shows the risk most likely to ship is the one raised quietly by whoever has the least standing in the room.

Two-thirds of Danish SMEs use AI tools, but only 7% have AI built into an actual process. The gap is depth, not adoption, and it is where the real work is.

Agents in Production · part 10

A prompt edit changes what your agent does for every user, just like code. Give it review, tests, staged rollout, and a rollback button, before it needs one.

The Delivery Layer · part 1

Most project damage comes from choices nobody recorded making. A bad call can be reviewed and reversed. An unmade decision just accrues until it breaks.

Agents in Production · part 9

Routing is a cost optimisation, not day-one architecture. Build it once you have production data showing which requests a cheaper model actually handles well.

Agents in Production · part 8

A tool schema is read by the model on every call, not once by an engineer. Design the contract, the errors, and the catalog size, because MCP will not.

Agents in Production · part 7

Production AI data pipelines have four jobs: extraction, normalization, enrichment, indexing. Most teams build only the last one and ship stale answers.
