I am a bit of a Xiaomi fan, so when I spotted the B3600 Pro I bought it without a strong reason. The UI was entirely in Chinese, and my Vodafone station was already good enough for daily use, so the router ended up sitting on a shelf collecting dust. Meanwhile, I have been running a fork of PicoClaw, a lightweight Go-based AI assistant, as my personal assistant for a while now. I have been genuinely impressed with how capable it is, so one day I looked at the idle router and thought: can I get PicoClaw running on that thing? Armed with my set of AI tools, I set out on an adventure. ...

The bottleneck in AI-assisted coding isn’t the models—it’s the interface. After months of experimenting with various AI-powered development tools, I’ve landed on a voice-first, multi-agent setup that removes the friction between thought and code. For context, my primary role is an Engineering Manager. I don’t write production code at work, but I build apps on the side and experiment with new AI tooling. The challenge: typing instructions slows down iteration, especially when exploring ideas or debugging complex problems. ...

After I switched to engineering management, I realized that I missed coding. With my new job, I spend more time on github, and innovation is very much encouraged at the company. As such, I’ve been fiddling around with LLM’s to see what works (and not). As I explore various models and learn more, I’ve developed a workflow that leverages multiple LLMs, each chosen for its specific strengths. Here’s how I use various AI models to boost my development productivity. ...
