Hi guys. I am new to open source. I had raised a PR 2 months ago but it didn't got merged. Then I thought I need to raise issue first so raised an issue in different organization last week and it says unanswered. So lemme know what is the right process actually. What you guys do. And how you pick organizations or project. For the last one I had used Claude to explain the code base and then help with the Issue and I did where human touch was needed and understood what I was doing. So is this the right way or you need to write everything yourself or what. Tell me about approach.

Thanks in advance.

I have come acrossed recently to the leetcode profiles of many working professionals who is the industry for 2-3 yrs and have 1000+ streaks so i wanna asks what drives your engine for doing this for so long? isn't that you had did this for placements? i am in graduation yr college so tell me should i follow you and why are you doing this? though i love doing leetcode but beside this there are lots of things to do so i am not consistent, maybe sometimes working on backend or agentic systems or reading about some technology.

tldr: are you being consistent due to fear or it's something else and what's that something?

I have these 2 queries, i wanna ask everyone here.

• during implementation, i am mostly letting the codex / cursor / devin to do the work after i writes the things in the agents . md so am i doing write or wrong? like i am not writing code myself, like whenever i stumbles upon something new like say i wanna add ocr parsing so i am not reading the docs or that tool like say surya ocr or else and just saying that in agents . md that we will be using this ocr and it just do's the implementation self but i am not doing that right? so is that a problem like should i need to know how to implement?
• i understands the design, builds the working agent, backend, frontend too but UI, i am unable to get good UI like don't know i always needs to manually write tailwind css and still i don't get a clean good UI which looks great as others. so how can i improvise on this or make the agent to give a good one. i have heard there is design . md a thing but don't know what to even write in there? like i can say use tailwind . css but i already writes that in agents . md

Hi everyone, I have few queries i wanna ask you all, working with agent on day to day basis.

1. So, whenever i wants to build something new, like new webapp, multi-agentic system or anything else, i goes to chatgpt to learn about concepts and how things would work but when it's a huge system, it gets hard for me keep everything in mind like how everything is working or even learn about few new concepts. so i wanna ask how you guys keep everything in mind? like ofcourse i uses excalidraw for the architecture but that's just the big picture but about rules of every element and how it should behave like suppose for protocol design when network takes the LLM output and sends back to the client so how we will parse it and would build the initial state like we can ask everything at once or stream it as events and then problems like reorganising events, deduplication and so on like when we design the whole system we need to keep lots of rules in mind right so how do you keep that.

2. during implementation, i am mostly letting the codex / cursor / devin to do the work after i writes the things in the agents . md so am i doing write or wrong? like i am not writing code myself, like whenever i stumbles upon something new like say i wanna add ocr parsing so i am not reading the docs or that tool like say surya ocr or else and just saying that in agents . md that we will be using this ocr and it just do's the implementation self but i am not doing that right? so is that a problem like should i need to know how to implement?

3. I uses ide/agents like antigravity / copilot / cursor / codex but all of their free or student monthly credits got exhausted with a single project already so what should i use like should i copy paste from claude chat web agent? i don't have good system that can run GLM 5.2 like i have heard that's too good right now and open sourced so i went to huggingface to download but i don't have enough compute like 200GB+ vRAM. so what actually should i do?

4. i understands the design, builds the working agent, backend, frontend too but UI, i am unable to get good UI like don't know i always needs to manually write tailwind css and still i don't get a clean good UI which looks great as others. so how can i improvise on this or make the agent to give a good one. i have heard there is design . md a thing but don't know what to even write in there? like i can say use tailwind . css but i already writes that in agents . md

5. i heard about skills . md how it actually works like i know you are researcher you are suppose to do something something... i do that in directly prompts or when i builds multi-agents i passes that on prompts. but what else for this one.

6. not lots of peoples are around me whom i can look upto and understand their workflows and improve mine, so can you tell me how your workflow looks like while building something or debugging and best practices as of now when coding is evolving and not the same at least i feels this like i am constantly learning new things and building from devops infra, web apps, agents, even few desktop and android app and smart contract / blockchain. basically learning about many system design and all of them feels connected to each other and implementing with the agents.

7. difference between claudecode and opencode, i mean i know that there is like claudecode can run the anthropic models only and opencode can lots of many. but my question is does wrapper makes any difference or real deal is the LLM model itself like claude fable 5 can do the same work with claudecode or used with opencode or cursor or else.

I think this is it. Thanks if you read this much.

Hi everyone, I wanna know how experienced folks in the industry learn new something. Like in youtube knowledge is swallow some of you guys told me and I also felt that. Read from articles/blogs/papers are one of the good way I have found but finding a good one that actually drops the things in detail instead of surface knowledge is not easy. Google don't indexes in terms of quality of the blogs but with factors, but I heard somewhere they are gonna change the indexing algo soon. But the question is how you guys learn new stuffs suppose there is tool calling so when you search in Google you would get articles on very popular sites but reading them definitely we won't be able to do much. I tried learning from Claude but I feel I don't able to control its response it just quickly climbs to somewhere without telling me how it reached there. I know it writes good code but should start like how it ended up being here. Why we are writing it that way what's the flow and all. I have found chatgpt is good at these like teaching new stuffs. GLM,Gemini,deepseek these are bad. Minimax and qwen is not built for this task.

Tldr: drop your approach of learning new tech, framework, tools, anything new you comes across for actually building Stuffs and not like for just knowing for the sake of staying updated bcz that's a good thing.

Hey everyone, I have been building agents since quiet time now. But many a times agent hallucinates, gives undesired results or whatever. I have seen many videos on YouTube and got general advices like write good guardials, do this do that. But still having problem in building. I wanna know how to improvise fr. Can you share your workflows with me how you design one or point me to some good blogs/articles to learn from someone else's experience. Would be of great help.

What to do you guys do when chat context gets too long like chatgpt is now taking ~2gb ram so what to do now? I tried branching but that's not what I intended then I created a summary it gave very recent ones and forgot the main context. So what to do now? My 8gb ram pc is laging
