Is it me or are all these articles about using AI effectively and building for AI just, you know, things that we should have been doing all along?

It feels like most of the “rules” are “don’t be an ass to your consumer”.

Partially, but I think if you design for agents, their needs are different enough from a human's that you end up making different choices.

I found myself nodding along to the linked tweet/article. Recently I did many rounds of iterative user-centered design with an agent to improve the CLI interface in Jobs [0], a task manager for LLMs. The resulting CLI follows most of these principles.

One great idea from the tweet that I will be adding: a `feedback` subcommand, for the agent to capture feedback while they work.
