I know this blog post's title implies losing my (programming) skills, and I will gladly address my feelings about how agentic coding has caused my problem-solving and coding to atrophy from lack of use. The main focus of this post is about losing, specifically deleting, my overly verbose and complicated skills and AGENTS.md files.

Do you feel you are losing your coding skills when working with a coding agent, or do you see other skills emerging as you experiment with AI?

I was starting to feel weighed down by token and cost anxiety, but everything shifted when OpenAI cut the price of GPT 5.6 Luna by 80%. This dramatic drop in cost per token completely transformed how I choose and use models for Drupal development.

See how I start with the statement "AI is making great programmers even greater and not-so-great programmers, well, not-so-great" and somehow end up concluding that everyone needs to be open to "vibe coding" with Drupal.

AIs are eating our websites, and we need to adapt by bringing AI into our website to enhance our content and user experience and provide a five-star dining experience.

I recently released a module called the AI Schema.org JSON-LD module, which I built with AI in 4 days. It replaces a key part of my Schema.org Blueprints module that I worked on for 4 years. AI ate my work, and I need to be okay with that.
