Building a Least-Privilege AI Agent Gateway for Infrastructure Automation with MCP, OPA, and Ephemeral Runners
This article presents a least-privilege AI Agent Gateway that places clear controls between AI agents and infrastructure. Agents do not access infrastructure APIs directly. Instead, every request is validated, authorized using policy as code with Open Policy Agent (OPA), and executed in short-lived, isolated environments, with built-in observability using OpenTelemetry.

You’ve Generated Your MVP Using AI. What Does That Mean for Your Software Architecture?
AI‑generated code creates implicit architectural decisions, forcing teams to rely on experimentation to validate quality attributes. To get useful results from AI, teams must clearly express trade‑offs and reasoning so the model can generate solutions aligned with desired QARs.

Building LLMs in Resource-Constrained Environments: a Hands-On Perspective
In this article, the author argues that infrastructure and compute limitations can drive innovation. It demonstrates how smaller, efficient models, synthetic data generation, and disciplined engineering enable the creation of impactful LLM-based AI systems despite severe resource constraints.

Working with Code Assistants: the Skeleton Architecture
Prevent AI-generated tech debt with Skeleton Architecture. This approach separates human-governed infrastructure (Skeleton) from AI-generated logic (Tissue) using Vertical Slices and Dependency Inversion. By enforcing security and flow control in rigid base classes, you constrain the AI to safe boundaries, enabling high velocity without compromising system integrity.

Why Most Machine Learning Projects Fail to Reach Production
In this article, the author diagnoses common failures in ML initiatives, including weak problem framing and the persistent prototype-to-production gap. The piece provides practical, experience-based guidance on setting clear business goals, treating data as a product, and aligning cross-functional teams for reliable, production-ready ML delivery.
