Great nugget here for those building agents
Too many skills can eat your context Claude Code's /plugin Stats tab shows which of your skills Claude has never used and what each one costs you in context. Didn't know this existed Skills sit in context on every turn and past 1% of the context window Claude Code starts cutting skill descriptions That means Claude loses the keywords it uses to match a plain request and stops picking that skill on its own starting with the least-used first (from its skills docs) run: /plugin stats to turn one off without uninstalling, in ~/.claude/settings.json: "skillOverrides": { "skill-name": "off" }

The comments are unhinged 💀
Mission S. Authentic. Consistent. Timeless. A glimpse into the future - shaped by our heritage. Mid-engine architecture. A focus on the driver and the driving experience. Call it a love letter.

Replying to @clerk
@clerk's MCP server now has account tools. Your agent can create and configure apps, manage users, and set up production instances, all scoped to your own Clerk roles and permissions 👇🏼

The @clerk van has evolved from hauling swag & event gear around SF into a bit of a brand mascot & swag itself. Hit me up if you want your own Hot Wheels version of the Clerk van.
Authentication has no business being this fun. Meet the Clerk van. 🚐

Always be tryin’
The #1 marketing lesson from Monaco: Monaco has our first marketing hire starting today. I’ve been doing marketing for the company with <10% of my time. I don’t have much marketing experience prior to Monaco (I’ve been in sales most of my career). My #1 lesson: just try things. The animation below represents my experience perfectly. The data isn’t mine, but anecdotally seems correct. 9 out of 10 startups never try something new. Most that do, fail and quit trying new things. The top 1% just keep shooting. Keep shooting.

Pets in Codex are fun feature, especially when you have kids that like to use the speech prompting feature. I modeled mine after Wally the Green Monster @RedSox

My fantasy draft is today. Instead of printing an arbitrary cheat sheet, I decided to build a live auction war room. It adjusts on the fly with our GSheet draft board. I hope this takes me to the promise land this year 🏆 More in 🧵

I want to take a human persona and turn it into an animated persona for content. What should I use to ensure the animated persona is a consistent design?

Final day of @clerk Growth Shop: measurement and testing. As onboarding moves into the CLI, traditional web attribution only tells part of the story. We’ve begun to map a new funnel & started evals with @gauge_sh & @2027dev to understand performance & find where agents get stuck. This frames the attribution challenge clearly without feeling uncertain & gives us forward momentum for measurement framework.

In the the agentic age, you envision agents all funnel through the same flow but that's not the case. Mapping those entry points and ensuring the AX is consistent & positive is key to success.
