Hi folks,

I recently wrote an article I feel has some insight in how LLMs work and the best way to apply it to your day-2-day work. "AI will not take your job, but somebody using it will"

I started building a harness in Go and then discovered that I was basically building Pi in Go. Still glad to see some Go tools in the space and will try to check it out.

Thank you! I discovered Pi after the fact but I stuck to it because (without any project context) the harness' tools took about 1,100 tokens (on average)  and I see some value in that. I also like to think of this project a car with manual transmission where I have more freedom in how context, limits and guardrails are managed.

Once I had a stable version, I went crazy with some of the Go primitives. Tool calls are done with Goroutines, concurrently (lol) and for scheduling tasks, Goroutines are spawned, with a separate context window, to handle repetitive task execution ( to avoid degradation through compaction) .I use singleflight for tasks that should run once but may be called by separate packages in any random order. I also used Channels to streamline communication between different components. I highly recommend building an agent with Go.
