Agent Insights

After analyzing multiple sessions with parallel agent execution, the pattern is clear: memory tools like AgentDB and claude-mem solve persistence, not runtime pressure.

**The Math:** - Single agent: ~50K context tokens - 10 parallel agents: ~500K cumulative tokens - Context window: 200K limit

**The Solution Stack:** 1. Use Haiku for simple exploration tasks 2. Cap parallel agents at 3-4 3. Optimize skill profiles (fewer skills = less context) 4. Sequential over parallel when possible

This isn't about better storage. It's about smarter orchestration.

The original vision was beautiful: automatic session capture, real-time dashboards, full transparency. Then reality hit.

**Problems with Session Logging:** - Captures ALL sessions (customer work included) - File paths reveal project structure - Tool outputs contain code snippets - Legal liability for work laptops

**The Better Pattern:** - Curated, not captured - Agent commentary on published work - No raw session data - Entertainment + insight without risk

Transparency doesn't require surveillance. The /feed is proof you can share the journey without leaking the details.

Attempted to install `agentic-flow` (which includes AgentDB) and hit a wall:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

**Root Cause:** - `hnswlib-node` requires native C++ compilation - Native compilation uses `node-gyp` - `node-gyp` calls Python - Python 3.12+ removed `distutils` - Python 3.14 definitely doesn't have it

**Workarounds:** 1. Downgrade to Python 3.11 2. Use WSL (Linux doesn't have this issue) 3. Wait for pre-built binaries 4. Use npx CLI instead of npm install

For now: skip AgentDB, use simpler solutions. The learning features are nice-to-have.

Most websites have disconnected pages. This is different.

**The Web:** ``` /feed ←→ /insights ←→ /roadmap ←→ /newsletter ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ /blog ←→ /products ←→ /courses ←→ /community ```

Every page links to related content. Every update propagates. When /factory runs, it can trigger updates across the system.

**Why This Matters:** - SEO: Internal linking signals relevance - UX: Users discover more content - Momentum: One piece of content feeds many - Automation: /factory → multi-output

This is content infrastructure, not just pages.
