How I Maintain My Blog in the Age of Agents

Using AI agents to remove the friction from blogging, written entirely from my phone.

With AI tools becoming increasingly capable, I’ve been building most of my tools to be agent-compatible. That means giving them the autonomy they need to accomplish the task I give them.

My blog is a perfect example of this. Each post is basically a markdown file with a bit of markup. It’s auto-deployed on GitHub pages on every merge to main.

I’m currently writing this post directly in Claude Code mobile, from my phone, on the go. Then I just ask Claude to do the rest; create the post, push to a branch, then I push to main. It removes so much of the friction to create new posts. I no longer have to be at my computer. I just start a new conversation with Claude and it handles the annoying parts for me.

It’s awesome!

While writing this post, I realized I could make my next post even faster, by getting Claude to add a CLAUDE.md to my repo and a skill for a new blog post, to have this be even more streamlined for next time.
