Can AI animate? Yes-ish.
We tested AI-assisted social animations using SVG, CSS, JavaScript and WebGL, including a deceptively awkward dripping effect. A few sketches made the prompts far less slippery.
Stress Testing wtproj With 500 AI-Planned Tasks
We stress-tested wtproj on an edge-first CMS plan with 500+ dependency-linked tasks, human approval gates and a GPT-5.6 loop. The queue got stuck usefully.
Testing Meta AI and the Muse CLI by Building LLM Wars
We tested Meta AI and the MUSE CLI by building LLM Wars, a WebGL trading game, then checked code iteration, plan steering and token use—with a few costly side quests.
Sifter Update: Building a Practical Shopify Theme Testing Workflow
An update on Sifter, a Liquid theme renderer for Shopify testing, now with an in-browser theme editor, GraphQL store caching for your store and CI/CD support. The robots are learning.
Using an Agent to Release wtproj
We released wtproj 0.1.0 on GitHub, added version, update and --model commands, and wrestled with Windows CI. A tidy release, after a few detours.
We Asked GPT Sol to Build an Endless Platformer
We tested GPT Sol by letting it choose the game engine, build a 3D sidekick in blender, and create an endless platformer with audio-reactive colour and timed pickups.
Sifter: Rendering Liquid Themes Offline
A look at Sifter, an offline Liquid theme renderer using cached mock.shop data, Horizon theme testing, Rust parsers, and careful agent workflows. It is working better than expected, which is always suspicious.
An audio reactive rebuild of our sidekick game in Usagi Engine
We gave our minigame a rebuild in Usagi Engine, using Lua for rapid 2D prototyping and a small C# helper for Windows audio loopback capture. Slightly silly time wasting game.
Building a Blog Writing Assistant That Still Needs a Human Brain
Built a Windows writing assistant for shaping rough blog notes into publishable drafts using GitHub Copilot, Codex CLI, and win-dev-skills, then packaged it for limited Microsoft Store distribution with version-number and privacy-policy hurdles. Useful, slightly opinionated, and much less magical than the sales pitch.
Sheep Rain for Shopify: Serious Lessons from a Very Silly Build
We built Sheep Rain for Shopify to test Shopify’s updated dev store and app workflow, using app blocks, Cloudflare, SVG storefront effects, and a very Welsh approach.
