Remove-AI-Watermarks
Remove visible and invisible AI watermarks from images generated by Google Gemini (Nano Banana), ChatGPT / DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, Adobe Firefly, Midjourney, and other AI models.
semble
Fast and Accurate Code Search for Agents. Uses ~98% fewer tokens than grep+read.
Agent Hooks: Deterministic Control for Agent Workflows
The post is about agent hooks as a control layer that makes AI behavior more deterministic by enforcing rules at specific lifecycle points, instead of relying on prompts alone. It emphasizes using hooks for policy enforcement, validation, and observability so teams can block bad actions, add guardrails, and make agent workflows more production-safe.
LLM Evaluation and AI Observability for Agent Monitoring
A guide on LLM evaluation and AI observability, explaining how to monitor, test, and deploy reliable AI agents in production with confidence and control.
claude-for-legal
A suite of plugins for legal workflows.

Let’s Fix Bloated Python Classes Once and For All
The video demonstrates how a single Python class can gradually become overloaded with unrelated responsibilities like validation, data processing, and model training, making the code harder to maintain and reason about. It then walks through refactoring the code into smaller, focused components while introducing a practical framework for deciding what logic should and should not belong i...
Watching for file changes on macOS
This post details how to build a lightweight tool for monitoring file system activity on macOS without relying on third-party dependencies. It explains how to implement a Swift script that interfaces directly with Apple's native FSEvents API and forwards those live change notifications to a Python environment via stdout.
django-q2 - Background Tasks in Django (Celery alternative!)
The video explores django-q2, a lightweight alternative to Celery for handling background jobs and asynchronous task processing in Django applications. It highlights how django-q2 simplifies setup and integration while providing built-in support for async workers, scheduled tasks, and Django Admin management features.
Bridging Python's Logging Module to OpenTelemetry (Complete Guide)
This guide walks through using the OpenTelemetry Python SDK's LoggingHandler to bridge Python's built-in logging module with an OpenTelemetry-compliant pipeline without changing your existing log statements. It demonstrates how to configure the handler (via dictConfig), map standard log records into structured OTel fields, and automatically correlate logs with active traces to route them...
nb-cli: A Command-Line Interface for AI Agents and Notebook Automation
The article introduces nb-cli, a Rust-built command-line interface engineered to let developers and AI agents programmatically read, write, and execute Jupyter notebooks without needing a running server. It highlights an AI-optimized Markdown format that exposes structured token-efficient code and cell metadata, enabling language models and automated CI/CD pipelines to manipulate noteboo...
