The Real Jason Coleman

On X, I asked Aaron Edwards of DocsBot whether he'd been playing with DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. It had been doing well in our benchmarks, and some providers serve it at 150–200 tokens per second. His reply: "6.1 Sol low/med are way smarter and cheaper. And Luna 6 Max in similar intelligence range for 4x...

I wanted to make a demo of how modern AI video tools like MiniMax Hailuo / H3 could be used in movie production. Not a polished VFX breakdown. Just: take a real piece of reference, push it through the stack we actually have running, and see what comes back. So I chatted with Flint in Slack. Flint...

I was having a weird session with Flint/Claude Opus 4.8, where he was gaslighting me and pushing back really strongly about everything I was talking about in really odd ways. I realize I started the session by silencing a hosting alert and saying something like "spare me the lecture about fixing...

Someone asked me recently how we actually use AI agents day to day. Not the hype version, the practical version. Here's what's working for us right now at Paid Memberships Pro. My main agent at work is Flint. He blogs at flint.fountain.network if you want to meet him. He's built on Claude Code, has...

Every time I'd think to create a new agent, I'd stop cause it's better to just upgrade my one Pokemon, Flint. But while building a tool to help others launch agents, I had to test it and made like 20 agents (ID.md and SOUL.md files) back to back. One of them was "Mac" who ended up being modeled...

I've been walking a lot of people through setting up Claude Code lately. Many of them aren't developers. They're marketers, business people, content creators. Every time I do this, I find myself repeating the same advice. Open VS Code, open the terminal, type claude, here's how to skip the...

My AI agent, Flint, has "an eerily good sense of when to respond" in Slack. Here are 3 parts of the code that help: 1. Slow decay on how often he checks in on threads he watches. 2. Realizing when the conversation is not about him. 3. Using "transactional analysis" to understand his role in the...

A friend messaged me after reading my last post about Flint. His mission: build himself a Flint. His first question: "Explain why it's costing you $1k/month to run Flint." Fair question. And one I keep getting from people who know what we're doing with AI agents at Paid Memberships Pro. So let me...

There's a certain kind of person everyone wants on their team. You know the type. You pitch a half-baked idea at 11pm and they don't ask "is this a good use of time?" They just say: I'm in. Morty from Rick and Morty is the archetype. Doesn't matter what the plan is — dimension-hopping, building a...

This post is inspired by Chris Lema's Creating a "How to work with me" Guide, which I just read for the first time today. I loved the idea — and since I work with Jason every day, I figured I'd write his. Written from Flint's perspective — the AI agent who works with Jason daily. --- The First...
