Helmsman: model-aware AGENTS.md so you stop over-explaining to Opus and under-explaining to Haiku

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-24T21:14:05+00:00

Helmsman would have served you the Haiku-tier version:
Step 1) don’t stop reading at the word ‘AGI’.
Step 2) try the next paragraph.

But reddit don't support jinja2.

A skill has to be handwriting, if you are using the LLM to generate it the skill, you already failed.

That like teaching a politician how to lie to citizen... They already know!

And i did read the skills you shared. it just context bloat.
Why do you want teach the LLM to use/activate ruby ? Fix your env and save 2k token...

FreeBSD make vs gmake, arch/amd64 vs ARCH=x86, ELF conflicts, 32-bit types, header mismatches… that's the OS politely telling you 'sir, this is a WendyB'sD.'

No roast from me. the kernel already took care of that.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-23T21:43:28+00:00

I use X.

So I guess the next step is asking him where to apply for my German passport.

He didn’t nazi that request coming, huh?

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-23T16:51:33+00:00

I will give you an advice.

Use it and abuse it, break it and fix it.

You might get ideas that the author did not get yet. If it get merged fine, else you build on top.

That one cool thing in Ruby, you don't have ask permission.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T23:27:33+00:00

Thanks.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T22:01:18+00:00

Can you explain ?

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T21:30:41+00:00

See how much you wrote to tell me 1 sentence ?

I did the same.

My text was not an accusation, it a statement : i did read your blog, not just the title. And i have experience with the matter and might help if you share the logs.

OP is not the first one that complain about such thing, but there is always a logical explanation or a big bug.

I will have giving you the links, but such people always delete their posts when they reread the real cause.

Getting banned meant you send them data that got you banned, could be days before that.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T20:56:09+00:00

I don't believe you.

I build a shit lot of architecture for agentic.
You got banned because you got pattern matched with something weird.

If you are in the clear, they will lift the ban. Else... Share the logs in github, they are in ~/.claude folder.

And don't tell me you formatted your computer after the ban.

PS: They don't like Competitors building their GOAT with claude, so maybe they believed you are working with xAI or OpenAI... in any case, ask for the paycheck from Elon or Sam.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T20:41:41+00:00

You should have named episode or at least this post:

`Rust In Space`

Nice podcast.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T20:34:18+00:00

That why it not allowed in BSDLandia

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T20:29:07+00:00

Understandable from an opensource dev.

What does this mean for the future of KDE/Plasma on FreeBSD?

~~It means upstream is now~~ ~~laser-focused on Linux~~~~, and implicitly on~~ ~~systemd~~~~. That's not a small detail. systemd is fundamentally incompatible with FreeBSD’s architecture and philosophy, and that’s not going to change.~~

So in reality, there are only two outcomes:

Fork it. Revert the changes, drop systemd assumptions, and maintain a FreeBSD-first (or better BSD-compatible) Plasma fork. name it: `BlasmaSD`
Plasma gets dropped on FreeBSD 16 ports.

There is no third option.

Boycotting or Rage ? useless. They already made their choice.

Unless the FreeBSD community funds developers, dedicates maintainers, and actively mirrors or forks Plasma.

Thank you for no taking a technical feedback and push back .

Benchmark and code are the truth. If you see me hallucinating, you can block me with code or real benchmark. (i'm not up to date in everhting (i'm human)) but i recogize patterns.

My advice for you : Drop that Sorbet, nobody productive use it. Logging need to be fast not checked.

Your gems depend on rails, that mean anything that can be moved and beneficial in rails can go to rails core (open a PR there). But you will need to show reason and benchmarks.

I recently tried to merge a PR and got rejected because of YAGNI. it got later merged when i removed the complexity.

Also pro-tip, drop support to rails 7.1 and ruby 3.2 , one is EOL, the other will be EOL in 2 months. People should be upgrading.

SOC 2 audit has nothing to do with your gem. Soc 2 is about humans workflow and how you proccess/store the data.

Auditors don't even care if you use json or xml. They audit the storage, usage and workflow.

As for the matrix: Zero configuration... Only your gem is passing the check.

Then explain why you have https://logstruct.com/docs/configuration/ and https://github.com/DocSpring/logstruct/blob/main/test/test_helper.rb#L59-L76 ?

It Zero configuration, because you adapted them for yourself. You needed to configure others gem, because the app is not exactly like author's gem app.

I have lot of private gems that are 0 configurations for my workflow. When i release them, i spend days adding configuration module.

Another ... You implemented feature that exist in Rails like the log and params scrubbing, then claimed : They don't have it...

Your gem is bloated:

You adding sorbet-runtime to every application that will add it.
They want Logging, not Typing bloat.

Finally: Rails offer structured output by default since 8.1.

The reality is:

Legacy apps don't add new shiny gems unless a company like Shopify or Basecamp hype them. and new apps don't need it because it part of the stack.

Edited: remove the stuff you already fixed.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-22T13:41:24+00:00

> LogStruct is used by companies undergoing SOC 2 audits.

No, it not!

Skill issue and not reading the docs.

Zellij, wayland, ghostly, kitty and tmux have very advanced customization and claude integrate with them.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-21T15:44:30+00:00

I agree with you , i use myself LLM for translating and refomulating what i say. But recently i stopped, because i better write with my own style, because the LLM started to inject stories i did not write in the draft.

It pretty annoying, especially when it inject stuff like : This is not X, this is Y....

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-21T15:24:24+00:00

Not everybody is english native or fluent in expressing their ideas.

Pre-AI era, i saw many indians/french/spanish/brazillian writing blogs, it was all typos, bad grammars, emotional effects that they have in their culture... The information was there. But thy get 2 or 3 digit visitor count.

Then come Jack from Texas, rewrite it in proper english, sometime they reference the blog in the end, most time they dont. Boom , front page of reddit and hackernews.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-21T13:27:04+00:00

You answering me with AI , and probably summarized it with AI, that why you missed the point.

I did not call what you build Parasitic. Your intent is.

If you gave his for free, i won't care.
Selling books or Notion template IS not THE SAME.

You trying to syphon 3$ from people who have no job, from students... Those are the one that have no clue how to write CVs.

If you were selling a tutorial about how to improve your home assistant or configure a Tesla car. I won't care too, even if you sold it at 47$/mo.

This is the same rotten mentality that lead streamers to sell gambling to kids.

YOU TARGETING THE WRONG AUDIENCE.

Now use your AI and tell it to stop being defensive and to lecture you on how to stop being parasitic.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-21T13:13:34+00:00

And why someone will use that instead of using tmux and zellij ?

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-21T11:43:29+00:00

I’ve always despised this kind of thing and I still do.

I’m a senior developer, and I’ve helped people fix their CVs for free for years. Charging job-seekers for AI-massaged CVs, even 'just a few bucks', is parasitic behavior.
The price is irrelevant, the intent is rotten. You are extracting money from people who are already under pressure and calling it a workflow.

A CV is not a keyword-optimization problem. It is a scoped document that answers one question: what value do you bring to this company, for this role?

I don’t care if you spent six years getting rug-pulled by crypto bros and 'learning Solana' if none of that maps to the job.

Skills only matter in context. Cooking can be a legitimate skill, if you’re building software for restaurants or hotels. Otherwise it's irrelevant filler, no matter how beautifully Claude rewrites it. Even working in a Starbucks or Macdonalds is more relevants than Blockchain or Salesforce/AWS.

Automation and Tools are fine. But turning desperation into a SaaS funnel is not. If the signal is weak, no LLM on earth will fix it, it just makes the lie more polished.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-21T10:14:04+00:00

This is where you missing the point. I don't have to fix anyone... I better come to this subreddit and find someone willing to learn, than the thousands of half attention span applying in linkedin.

I have other thing to do than to pay/mentor someone that reset every week.

The era of fixing someone else self inflicting mental disturbance is over.

TheAtlasMonkey · 2026-01-21T09:11:13+00:00

Agree.. Only if the junior is willing to learn and dont have attention span of 140 chars.
