Cross-Model Audits of AI-Written Code — Process, Not Faith
After using AI to port a calculator from a 35-sheet engineering spreadsheet, how do I know it is correct? This article covers three independent audit rounds by an agent from another provider, the rules to set before starting, confidence levels that keep claims within the evidence, and the classes of errors AI kept making in every round.
Let AI Read Documents, but Let Code Do the Math
The controller requires manually entered values to fall between 0 and 100, but the path where AI reads values from documents and feeds them in only checks whether they are numeric. A single negative value inflated the result to 5.25 times what it should have been without an error — a lesson in treating AI output as untrusted input, just like values entered by people.
Repairing a Claude Code Session .jsonl File Too Large to Open at 38 MB
A single session stretched over 8 days grew to 38.61 MB / 11,537 records until the UI could no longer open its history. I wrote a Python script to process it line by line, trimming only the parts that were already unreadable to humans, bringing it down to 17.41 MB while preserving all 8,171 message uuid values in their original order, with no orphans.
Using Claude to Upgrade Proxmox 8 to 9 and Rebuild Windows VMs
A real case using VS Code + Claude to upgrade an entire Proxmox cluster from 8 to 9, then delete and rebuild all Windows VMs for VDI without ever SSHing into a host myself. I have laid out the commands and scripts Claude generated during the actual work as steps that a person or AI can read and run again.
Edit Videos with Claude Using Thai Prompts, No Video Editor Needed
How I actually use Claude in VS Code to trim, resize, join, and add background music to videos by typing in Thai, without memorizing ffmpeg commands or opening a video editor. Includes getting AI to compose music, NVIDIA GPU acceleration, and Mac and Linux instructions for people who have never used Claude.
Managing Linux Servers Safely with AI over SSH
How I actually use Claude to audit and fix Linux server security over SSH, from preparing my machine and storing secrets to hard rules before touching production
Claude Builds a Steel Shed in SketchUp, Then Runs FEA and a Heatmap
In the final part of the series, I ask Claude to build an entire mono-slope steel shed in SketchUp, layer by layer from concrete columns to roof tiles, then analyze its strength with PyNite and apply a heatmap based on the actual forces.
Driving SketchUp with Claude Code, Part 2 — MCP Plugin Bug Fixes
Let Claude Code actually "see" and "drive" SketchUp through a community MCP plugin, with fixes for 2 time-wasting bugs — a broken PyPI wheel and a UI freeze caused by a blocking socket
Driving SketchUp with Claude Code, Part 1 — uv and PyNite Setup
Start a series on using Claude Code to draw 3D steel structures in SketchUp and run FEA calculations. This first part covers setup only, configuring Claude permissions, installing uv, and creating a conda env with PyNite.
OpenClaw vs. VSCode + AI Agent: Which Should You Use?
Comparing two approaches that turn AI from a chatbot into an assistant that gets work done — a chat-app gateway like OpenClaw and an editor-based setup like VSCode + AI Agent, covering workflows, token costs, and security basics for beginners.
Build a Desktop AI Server with WSL2 + Ollama + OpenClaw
A record of building a home AI server from scratch, starting with Windows 11 IoT, installing WSL2 + Ubuntu, setting up Ollama to run LLMs on two GPUs, then adding multiple OpenClaw instances through systemd, covering drivers, custom Modelfiles, user isolation, and benchmarks
