Cool idea. But is anyone actually building real stuff like this with any kind of high quality?

Every time I hear someone say "I have a team of agents", what I hear is "I'm shipping heaps of AI slop".

Even though I did not know about Andrej Karpathy's tweet from earlier this month, I ended up converging on something very similar.

A couple of weeks ago I built a git-based knowledge base designed to run agents prompts on top of it.

I connected our company's ticketing system, wiki, GitHub, jenkins, etc, and spent several hours effectively "onboarding" the AI (I used Claude Opus 4.6). I explained where to find company policies, how developers work, how the build system operates, and how different projects relate to each other.

In practice, I treated it like onboarding a new engineer: I fed it a lot of context and had it organize everything into AI-friendly documentation (including an AGENTS.md). I barely wrote anything myself, mostly I just instructed the AI to write and update the files, while I guided the overall structure and refactored as needed.

The result was a git-based knowledge base that agents could operate on directly. Since the agent had access to multiple parts of the company, I could give high-level prompts like: investigate this bug (with not much context), produce a root cause analysis, open a ticket, fix it, and verify a build on Jenkins. I did not even need to have the repos locally, the AI would figure it out, clone them, analyze, create branches using our company policy, etc...

For me, this ended up working as a multi-project coordination layer across the company, and it worked much better than I expected.

It wasn't all smooth, though. When the AI failed at a task, I had to step in, provide more context, and let it update the documentation itself. But through incremental iterations, each failure improved the system, and its capabilities compounded very quickly.

I remember the personal wiki was a bit of trend 5 years ago but it kind of died because it had an unclear purpose for the most part. I kept one but never really referred to any of the notes and then just went back to a paper and to do list. I’m sure this is useful for those who kept up the habit.

Hey, contributor to Wuphf here,

We have been using it as a sounding board. I think that in its current state it's actually more useful for someone to learn about how to run a business - "what does a CEO vs PM do" and/or learn about the pros/cons of running a bunch of agents at once.

+100 for this comment.

The problem with your comment is that the word "real" is just there to move the goalposts. There are people building high-quality stuff like this, yes.

I built a tiny utility like this that works very well yesterday:
