    Theo Browne shares a list of projects he would like developers to build, arguing that agents make larger projects more approachable while choosing useful problems remains important. He calls for clearer package provenance and permission information when humans or agents execute code.

    He discusses source-control permissions, security fixes, worktreesA Git worktree is an additional checked-out working directory linked to one repository, allowing separate branches to be edited side by side. and filesystem performance, then imagines a way to synchronize development environments across machines. He also describes a more open mobile platform and team communication tools designed to work with agents.

    Browne closes by encouraging more reproducible benchmarks for real tasksEvaluation is the systematic assessment of a system's behaviour or results against explicit criteria. and unusual model failure modes. The proposals and performance comparisons are his views; the sponsor segment is omitted.
