Notes from the Wakoo team
Can you still build quality software when AI, tooling and the news cycle move this fast? We dig into the tools, the practices and what's reshaping the craft, Wakoo included.
Fable 5: Quality Comes at a Price
The most powerful models think longer, and cost more. How the "effort" parameter, token burn and structured workflows change what it means to use AI well.
Code Agents: When AI Takes Center Stage in the Project
Code agents no longer just suggest — they read, modify, test and open pull requests. A major shift, with real strengths, real weaknesses, and risks that teams cannot afford to ignore.
MCP: Connecting AI Agents to the Real World
AI agents no longer just answer, they act. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the USB-C port that connects them to your tools, and it's quietly becoming the standard. What it is, why it matters, and what it lets loose.
AI in the Age of Tokens: After the Hype, the Bill
GitHub Copilot is moving to pay-as-you-go token billing, the “Tokenpocalypse.” What a token really is, why the shift is happening, and what “AI FinOps” means for your team.
Where to look when checkout suddenly slows down
A slow checkout rarely has one obvious cause. Here's how to go from a vague complaint to the exact place to start — without grepping nine systems.
What we mean by “a GPS for developers”
Not a coding agent, not monitoring, not code search. Wakoo answers a different question: where do I even start?
Read-only by default: why Wakoo never writes to your code
Connecting a new tool to your stack shouldn't widen your attack surface. Here's our default posture.
