Help for Go teams building with AI agents — and for engineers finding their place

Hands-on workshops and audits for engineering teams, and 1:1 coaching for engineers. I'm taking a few pilot teams this quarter at a reduced rate in exchange for honest feedback.

For teams

Built on my book, Building Modern CLI Applications in Go, and the agents I build and measure on Build It in Go.

Workshop

Agent-Ready CLIs & Internal Tools

Your team’s CLIs and internal tools are already being run by coding agents. This workshop makes them safe and efficient for agents to use.

  • Review your tools for agent-readiness, together
  • Clear output, exit codes and errors agents can act on
  • Permission rules and dry-runs for anything destructive
  • Evals that show whether agents actually got better

Workshop

Build AI Agents in Go

A hands-on day where your team builds a working agent in Go — tools, guidelines, model switching and evals — on a real problem of yours, like reviewing pull requests.

  • An agent loop built from scratch, no framework
  • Tools that are safe by default
  • Switch between Claude, Bedrock and local models with one flag
  • An honest way to compare models on your own code

Consulting

Agent-Readiness Audit

I review your CLIs, APIs and developer tools and hand back a prioritized list of fixes, so AI agents can use them safely — without your team running a workshop.

  • What agents trip on today, with examples
  • Prioritized fixes, from quick wins to bigger changes
  • Guardrails for anything that writes or deletes

Coaching

1:1 Coaching for Engineers

For engineers figuring out where they fit as AI changes the job — after a layoff, before a move, or just feeling behind. Practical, honest, and based on what I’m doing myself.

  • A plan for using AI on purpose, with guardrails
  • Which skills to build next, and how to show them
  • Career moves: positioning, projects, going independent

Laid Off by AI? The 7-Day Plan for Engineers

What I’d do this week if I were a mid-level or junior engineer wondering if I’m next. One step a day, from guardrails on AI to the skills it can’t copy.

Local AI on an 8 GB Mac: Cheat Sheet

The model sizes, Ollama settings and memory watchdog script that kept my M1 MacBook out of the red, with every number measured on camera.
