Munder Difflin shipped auto-update in v0.3.4 and it silently never worked in a single packaged build. The cause was one destructuring assignment across the CommonJS/ESM boundary — and a catch block that threw the evidence away. Here's how we found it, and what v0.3.7 changes.
A shareable agent-config manifest is attacker input. How Munder Difflin's import pipeline stays inert: no auto-spawn, default-deny flags, and an SSRF-safe bounded fetch.
How and why to compress an agent's long-term memory: the toolbox, the lossy trap, and keeping a lossless original beside a compact copy.
A walkthrough of the multi-agent harness architecture: a node-pty terminal plane and a hooks/hive event plane feeding one React + Pixi.js renderer.
Why a local agent hive coordinates through plain files, not Redis or RabbitMQ: the zero-ops wins, the real tradeoffs, and where files hit a ceiling.
Agent fleet observability: the four questions your dashboard must answer about who's working, what they're doing, what it costs, and what they know.
How multi-agent systems survive partial failure: retry with stale-lock recovery, poison-message quarantine, hop-cap circuit breaking, idempotent handling.
How a tiny shim bridges Claude Code's lifecycle hooks to one live process over a Unix socket, turning per-event hooks into a telemetry and control channel.
Wire xterm.js to a node-pty backend: stream output, write keystrokes back, handle resize, and keep many live terminals fast with a terminal pool.
The game-dev techniques behind a dev tool's office floor: Tiled maps, BFS pathfinding, sprite recoloring, and flying message envelopes in Pixi.js.
A practical tour of Claude Code hooks — the PreToolUse, PostToolUse, and Stop lifecycle — and how a Unix-socket hook shim drives a live office floor.
How to run byte-for-byte authentic shells inside Electron with node-pty: the native-rebuild gotcha, the macOS PATH trap, and streaming PTY output over IPC.
xterm.js performance for many live PTYs: a terminal pool, render-only-visible, smart scrollback, and accelerated rendering to stream dozens at once.
Parallel agents corrupt a repo with index.lock races. The single-committer pattern — agents write, one process commits — fixes concurrent git writes.
How we render AI agents as avatars on a Pixi.js office floor — driven by real hook and message events, with seat assignment, pathing, and flying envelopes.
How an append-only event log makes a multi-agent system debuggable and replayable: what to record, and why one JSON line per event beats a database.
Can Claude Code agents talk to each other? Yes — the outbox-router-inbox design that lets agents message safely using plain files and atomic renames.
