The $0 Distribution Playbook for MCP Servers: 12 Channels, 30 Days, Real Numbers

A month ago I shipped aicraft-code-review — an open-source MCP server that reviews code locally (OWASP scanning, N+1 detection, style rules) for Claude Code, Cursor and Cline. I had $0 marketing budget and no audience. One month later: 650+ PyPI installs, 12 Product Hunt followers, and listings in 5 directories — with more pending. Zero dollars spent. Here's the exact playbook, including what did...

MCP Transports: stdio vs HTTP, and What Just Changed

Our own search data has been telling me to write this for months and I ignored it. Thirty-one different spellings of the same question, things like "stdio vs http mcp" and "mcp server stdio vs http", nearly three hundred impressions, several of them sitting on page one. Zero clicks, because we rank for it by accident out of other articles and have never had a page that actually answers it. So her...

How do you unit test an agent skill?

Agent skills are prompts, not code, and there’s no compiler to catch a broken one. Agent skills ship on the honour system. You rewrite one, run it twice, post something convincing in Slack, and that’s the review. Is it faster? More reliable? Going to cost more? This isn’t a strategy. This is astrology for prompts. That bugged me. Not because I thought people didn’t know what they were talking ab...

Building a Static Encyclopedia with 1,000+ Entries, 8 Languages, and Zero Backend

TL;DR I built a full-featured encyclopedia web app with 1,025 entries, 8 languages, and sub-second load times — all without a traditional backend. The trick? Mirror a public REST API as static JSON files at build time, deploy to Cloudflare Pages, and let the CDN do the heavy lifting.

Building a High-Performance Daily Ledger API: Asynchronous Concurrency & Data Validation with FastAPI

When designing modern backend microservices, two pillars dictate the reliability and speed of your application: strict data contracts and non-blocking asynchronous execution. In this project, I built the Daily Ledger API —a lightweight, high-performance RESTful service built with Python 3, FastAPI, Pydantic, and AsyncIO. The service tracks, validates, persists, and concurrently analyzes daily nu...

Dead Auto-Skills Were Padding Every Conversation: A Weekly Curator That Flags at 30 Days and Archives at 90

"Claude Code gets smarter the more you use it" is only half the story. The other half is that it gets heavier. Six months ago I was a university student making ¥100k a month. Juggling side jobs pushed that to ¥600k, and after being laid off I spent six months building an autonomous Claude Code environment. Today the business runs at ¥1.2M a month. Along the way, one problem hit me hard: skill rot...

Reliable provenance and graded trust Explicit reliability modeling cuts hallucination. Σ‑Mem stores symmetric competence states for peer agents, while LedgerMind adds a Structured Evidence Ledger that forces reasoning to cite provable tool outputs. Both pipelines let us evaluate answers systematically and keep track of where information came from [1], [2]. Why it matters: provenance ...

AI/ML Research Digest — Jul 26, 2026

Self‑Improvement and Distillation for Autonomous Agents Verification loops that check every tool call and compress the agent’s state are now a core research direction. The recursive verification loop (AREX) shows that such self‑checking can raise multi‑hop reasoning performance dramatically [1]. On‑policy distillation methods let agents learn from their own successful trajectories, while self‑dist...

Efficient scaling and deployment Looped transformers with a principled residual‑scaling rule keep gradients stable enough to add depth without exploding the training signal [1]. The same paper shows that deeper passes improve language modeling while preserving inference speed. A separate system‑level trick copies verified key‑value entries into a frozen small model, reproducing logits exactly and ...

Long‑context efficiency via attention and KV‑cache tricks Redesigning attention lets models handle far longer sequences without extra FLOPs. Linear‑time recurrent attentions such as DeltaNet expand hidden capacity, while Sparse Delta Memory adds a sparse addressing layer that multiplies effective hidden state size under the same compute budget [1].

Mixture‑of‑Experts scaling for multimodal retrieval Large Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) models now handle multilingual text and long visual contexts without exploding token counts. By routing queries to a small active subset of experts, they keep inference cheap while preserving performance on cross‑modal tasks [1].

Getting a marketing page from blank canvas to production-ready in a single working day is repeatable once you have the right setup. This is the exact Next.js Tailwind workflow I use across client projects — design tokens as CSS custom properties, a small component library with firm conventions, and a page-building sequence that keeps decisions cheap.

I Built a 100% Free Alternative to Studio 3T + Compass

If you work with MongoDB every day, you've probably lived this cycle: you start with Compass because it's the "official" tool, hit its limits within a week, install Studio 3T, love the extra power, and then eventually run into the paywall. A single-user Studio 3T license runs well over a hundred dollars a year, and the free tier is capped hard enough that any real team ends up paying. I got tired...

What Is DNS? A Simple Explanation for Beginners

Every time you type a website address into your browser, something happens behind the scenes that most people never think about. You type "google.com" and within a fraction of a second, your browser knows exactly which server on the internet to talk to. That process is powered by DNS. DNS Stands for Domain Name System DNS is often called the phonebook of the internet, and that comparison still h...

Here's the thing nobody tells you about WhatsApp automation: the hard part was never the AI, and it was never the German. It was WhatsApp itself. I wanted something dumb simple - a WhatsApp Channel that posts one German word every morning, A1 level, with an example sentence and a mnemonic. Gemini can write that in a second. The actual project turned out to be an argument with WhatsApp's...
