The previous three posts covered how events flow from the SDK to the UI, how the timeline renders, and how tool cards visualize. This final post looks at SwiftWork's infrastructure — how data is stored, how state is restored, how Markdown is rendered, how code is highlighted, and how API keys are managed. These components are independent, but all essential to making the app usable. SwiftWork uses
We had ArgoCD running perfectly. Every deployment was reconciled from Git. Drift detection worked. Rollbacks were one-click. Our GitOps setup was clean. Developers still couldn't provision a staging environment without pinging the platform team. That gap — between "GitOps in place" and "developers can actually self-serve" — is where most platform engineering teams get stuck. GitOps solves a real p
Anthropic now ships at least three different memory models inside the Claude product family, and they don't behave the same way. Claude.ai has a chat memory feature for Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users that summarizes prior conversations and injects that summary into new chats. Claude Code has CLAUDE.md files plus a separate "auto memory" directory the model writes to itself, both loaded at se
Part 2 of 5 in The New Engineering Contract - what it means to lead engineers when AI is doing more of the coding. Stripe never skipped the boring stuff. They ship 1,300 AI PRs a week. Amazon skipped it. Their storefront went down for six hours. Kent Beck wrote the answer in Extreme Programming Explained in 1999. We read it. Then chose velocity anyway. A friend of mine leads engineering at a funde
