Spec-Driven Development: Maybe Developers Are Not Coders Anymore
Recently I have been changing quite a lot of things in the way I code. I slowly moved a lot of my work from Claude Code to Pi. I started using Herdr instead of my usual tmux setup, mainly because I like having multiple coding agents running in different panels and being able to clearly […]

I’m Using Herdr Instead of tmux Now
I’ve been a tmux user for quite a while. More specifically, I normally use tmux together with Oh My Tmux, and honestly, it works perfectly fine. It is fast, stable, lightweight, and does almost everything I need from a terminal multiplexer. But recently, I started using Herdr instead. And strangely enough, I don’t really have […]

Why I’m Slowly Ditching Claude Code for Pi
I’ve been using Claude Code quite heavily for coding, and to be clear: I still think it’s a very good tool. But recently I noticed something. I’m opening Claude Code less and less. And instead, I’ve slowly been moving more of my daily coding work to Pi. This wasn’t really a planned migration. I didn’t […]

Be Like Morgan – A story about work, laziness, AI, and knowing when to let go
Morgan was lazy. There was no point pretending otherwise. He hated waking up early. He hated meetings, especially meetings where eight people spent an hour discussing something two people could have settled in five minutes. He hated filling in forms. He hated copying numbers from one spreadsheet into another. Most of all, Morgan hated doing […]

You’re Using Claude Code Wrong (If You Aren’t Using Vim Mode)
Welcome back to maxlibin.com. If you’ve been spending any time with Anthropic’s Claude Code CLI, you already know it is an incredible tool. Having an AI agent live directly in your terminal, capable of navigating your codebase, running tests, and executing commands, is a massive leap forward for developer productivity. But I’m going to be […]

Why I Moved My AI Agent from Cloudflare to Hetzner (and Saved $30/mo)
A few weeks ago, I shared a guide on how to run OpenClaw on Cloudflare for what I thought would be a flat $5/month. While the "serverless" promise is enticing, three weeks of real-world usage taught me a hard lesson about hidden costs and rate limits. If you are looking for a high-performance AI agent […]

How to Run Your Own AI Agent on Cloudflare for $5 (No Servers Required)
Let’s be real: paying $20/month for every AI tool adds up fast. But what if you could run your own powerful, personalized AI assistant for just $5 a month? That’s exactly what OpenClaw (formerly Moltbot) allows you to do. It’s an open-source AI agent that runs entirely on Cloudflare Workers. It’s fast, it’s private, and […]

The OpenClaw Bible: A Masterclass in Building Your Own 24/7 AI Agent
Introduction: The Death of the Chatbot For the past three years, we have been living in the era of the "Chatbot." We’ve grown accustomed to the routine: open a browser tab, log in to ChatGPT or Claude, type a prompt, and wait for a reply. It’s brilliant, yes—but it’s also remarkably passive. These models are […]

Meet Ralph Wiggum: The Chaotic AI Loop That Writes Code While You Sleep
If you’ve been lurking around the AI engineering watercoolers (aka X or Reddit) lately, you might have heard developers whispering about "Ralph Wiggum." No, they aren’t quoting The Simpsons ("My cat’s breath smells like cat food"). They are talking about a brute-force AI coding technique that is quietly changing how we interact with autonomous agents. […]

From Vibe to Glory: Launching My First 2026 App in Under 4 Hours
It is January 2nd, 2026. While most of the world is still shaking off the New Year’s Eve fog or contemplating resolutions they’ll break by Tuesday, I’ve already shipped. A few weeks ago, I laid out a manifesto for the year: Vibe Coding: How I Build Revenue-Generating Apps at Speed. I made a public commitment […]
