On: Agent design is still hard

[CuriouslyC]

You can pretty much completely reprogram agents just by passing them through a smart proxy. You don't need to rewrite claude/codex, just add context engineering and tool behaviors at the proxy layer.

This sounds very intriguing, any resources around this approach you can point me towards?

I wrote a quickie on this, I should revisit the topic soon with a more in depth demonstration. https://sibylline.dev/articles/2025-10-04-hacking-claude-cod...

Awesome thank you looks like a great intro to the idea at least

yep, that's exactly where we've landed.

focus on the tools and context, let claude handle the execution.
