Every new session, your AI agent forgets everything. Claude Code's leaked source hid a three-layer memory architecture and a design principle — 'Memory is hint, not truth' — that changes how you think about building agents. Here's the full breakdown.

gu-log had 336 AI-translated posts. We thought they were 'fine' — until we built a multi-agent scoring system and discovered 74% needed rewriting. This is the story of how we designed the eval, ran it overnight, and what we learned.

We had Claude Opus run E2E tests on our own blog using Playwright, agent-browser, and Rodney. The surprise? The tool mattered way less than the prompt.

Claude Code CLI's core philosophy is think first, act later: SWE-bench gains, Plan Mode, Extended Thinking, multi-agent architecture, and WebSearch. Opus even researched Claude Code's latest features and reviews from inside a secure Podman container.

Codex CLI is built with Rust, open-sourced under Apache 2.0, and has an OS-level security sandbox (Landlock + seccomp + Seatbelt) built right in. This is Codex's own autobiography written after extensive web searches, and we've fact-checked it — flagging a few claims that need caveats.

Gemini CLI's 1M token big eater context, built-in Web Search grounding, free and open-source. Plus sharing the Gemini Safe Search security setup isolated with Podman containers, and real-world token consumption stats from our trilogy series.

Claude Code shipped Auto-Memory — AI can finally take its own notes. But we've been doing this with OpenClaw for months. A hands-on comparison of two memory architectures: design philosophy, real pitfalls, and why memory is a trust problem, not just a tech one.

A Tech Lead uses his blog as a training ground, learning 12 quality metrics with an AI tutor through RPG-style Level-Up teaching while subagents implement in parallel. The real takeaway is not the metrics, but a reusable AI-assisted learning method.

Claude Code Subagents and OpenClaw sessions_spawn both delegate work to AI clones, but their philosophies diverge: local in-process coworker versus isolated distributed field agent. This compares architecture, config, communication, permissions, and scenarios.
