Practices Library

AI research moves faster than anyone reads. Good findings get buried with the rest. The Practices Library is the cleanup. Each entry is one rule, pulled from a synthesized paper, written so you could try it tomorrow morning. Practices are organized by where in the work the rule matters: the decisions before any code, the architecture, the build, the evaluation, the production, the team, the governance. Pick a stage to start.

Discovery

Decisions made before code is written: what kind of project this is, where the model carries weight, and how much trust the work warrants.

2 practices
  • Vibe coding
  • Trust calibration
  • AI in games

Architecture

How the system is shaped: agent topology, planning, step-level evaluation, and the structural choices that determine whether compute is spent well.

3 practices
  • Multi-agent systems
  • Budget-aware reasoning
  • Tool use

Build

Implementation patterns: how to scaffold around probabilistic output, surface failure modes early, and keep human judgment in the loop while the code lands.

7 practices
  • Trust calibration
  • Code generation
  • Budget-aware reasoning

Evaluation

How you measure whether the system actually works: equal-compute baselines, instrumentation that catches silent over-budgeting, and benchmarks that survive scrutiny.

2 practices
  • Evals
  • Compute normalization
  • Test-time compute

Deployment & Operations

Production rollout, cost monitoring, observability, model rotation, and the day-to-day work of keeping deployed systems within bounds.

Team & Transformation

How people actually learn what AI does and does not do: hands-on exercises with live models, surfacing the failure modes that fixed demos hide.

2 practices
  • Education
  • Prompting
  • AI ethics

Governance

How AI use stays accountable: policy, audit trails, model approvals, risk frameworks, and the human checks that keep autonomous systems within bounds.
