Notes from building Compound Coders, shipping products using AI, and turning agent output into verified software. The work lives where prompts meet repo memory, recovery habits, and production evidence.
Chat with Troels AI
Prompting, repo memory, product judgment
// OPERATING.SYSTEM
Modern AI work needs a repo-shaped system.
The training connects five levers: mindset, accurate prompting, context engineering, evaluation and recovery, and agent-oriented repository organization.
- 01Raise the turn success before chasing speed
- Frame tasks with role, context, constraints, output shape, examples, and acceptance criteria.
- 02Build repo memory
- Move product, workflow, engineering, and shipping memory out of chat so agents stop starting from zero.
- 03Ship through verified loops
- Prototype when the shape is unclear, turn evidence into product direction, then build small checked issues.
// LATEST.NOTES
Fresh experiments, essays, and videos.
Short, practical pieces from the edge of AI-assisted software work.
// VIDEOS

Simple Steps for Crystal-Clear Requirements!
Ever struggled with unclear project requirements? This video shows you how a simple, structured prompt can help you gather all the details you need for successful projects! Watch as we demonstrate a powerful technique for collecting project requirements using an AI assistant. If you want to try this out for you self, go to awesomecodeprompts (it's free, but you need an OpenAI or kluster.ai account): [link coming, but need to a verified account first] This approach works for any project - from software development to marketing campaigns. Say goodbye to confusion and rework. Try this requirements-gathering method today! In the next video we will use these requirements to build a calculator, so remember to subscribe!

How to Setup DeepSeek R1 on TypingMind
Looking to get started with DeepSeek R1, the powerful EU-hosted AI model? In this quick tutorial, I'll show you how to set up and connect DeepSeek R1 with TypingMind's user-friendly interface in just minutes. The video below walks you through creating your API key, configuring the connection, and testing your setup for seamless AI interactions. DeepSeek R1 is provided through kluster.ai, a platform founded in 2024 that democratizes access to AI compute power through a decentralized network of GPU providers. This EU-hosted solution offers excellent performance with lower latency and regulatory compliance. Before you begin, you'll need: - A kluster.ai account: https://dub.sh/klusterai - TypingMind access: https://dub.sh/WGMPH3X Note: While I mention US hosting in the video, the service is actually hosted in the EU.
