Use AI to Triage Commercial Vehicle Maintenance Reports

Commercial vehicle maintenance information is often fragmented across driver reports, warning lights, fault codes, inspections, repair records, and vehicle history. This makes it difficult for smaller fleets to decide whether a vehicle can continue operating, requires scheduled repair, or should be stopped immediately. We built TruckFixr Fleet AI to turn an unstructured driver report into a clear, reviewable maintenance action. The workflow begins when a driver submits symptoms, photos, fault codes, and vehicle information through a mobile-friendly form. AI and optical character recognition extract the relevant details and organize them into a structured maintenance case. The report is then evaluated alongside available vehicle history and previous repairs. The workflow provides decision support through three practical actions: continue operating while monitoring, schedule an inspection or repair, or stop and escalate for immediate professional assessment. Final safety decisions remain with authorized fleet or maintenance personnel. After an inspection or repair, the confirmed cause, work performed, and outcome are recorded, creating a more complete vehicle history for future cases. The general workflow can be recreated using a mobile form, OCR, a vehicle-history database, an AI model, automation software, and a human-review dashboard. Step-by-step: 1. A driver submits symptoms, photos, fault codes, and vehicle information through a mobile-friendly form. 2. AI and optical character recognition extract the relevant details and organize them into a structured maintenance case. 3. The workflow compares the report with available vehicle history and previous repairs. 4. The system provides one of three decision-support actions: continue operating while monitoring, schedule an inspection or repair, or stop and escalate for immediate professional assessment. 5. Authorized fleet or maintenance personnel make the final safety decision. 6. After inspection or repair, the confirmed cause, work performed, and outcome are recorded in the vehicle history. TruckFixr has used this approach to support more than 100 vehicle-issue resolutions in early fleet pilots, helping fleets identify problems earlier, prevent avoidable breakdowns, and keep vehicles moving safely.

Build a Locator Map Web App with Claude Code, Codex, and Perplexity

Sometimes a story needs a simple locator map to show where something happened or where something can be found—such as a business facility, a car accident, or the best place to see a sunset. I've worked in media for a long time and understand the power of maps to tell stories. But media cost-cutting and consolidation have reduced the number of available graphic departments, so creating a map is often the last task a reporter or editor wants to take on. I used Perplexity for initial research, Claude Code and Codex to build a web app, and Perplexity and ChatGPT for post-work such as SEO best practices. Step-by-step: 1. I used Perplexity's Deep Research mode to conduct a competitive market analysis. I asked it to analyze the field I was considering entering, identify competitors and growth rates, and explicitly break out feature sets. 2. I revised the research with my own idea and asked Perplexity to run the competitive landscape against it. I also provided desired outcomes, including intended audiences and where competitors were reaching them. I added the constraint, "Do it without syncophancy," so it would stop telling me how good my potential product was. 3. I hand-drew the initial screens and functions I wanted, then used the `/office-hours` skill in the Gstack bundle, available on GitHub, to play devil's advocate, sharpen the ideas, and challenge my assumptions. 4. I wrote a long prompt describing the product, starting broadly with the concept and audience and then narrowing to specific features and benefits. For example, I specified that it should export in 16:9 and 9:16 formats so maps would be ready for mobile vertical presentation. 5. I specified the hosting environment and that the product should be a web app. I also required a planning phase followed by construction phases. I pasted the prompt into Claude Code with this final line: "Use /grill-me to ask me questions to clarify intent." After 147 questions, it started the build. 6. This was in the pre-Fable days, so I specified that Opus 4.8 should act as an orchestrator while less expensive agents, particularly in Codex, handled the actual coding. 7. I used separate phases for technical work such as wiring in mapping providers and getting the UX to work correctly. Other phases included wiring in payment and subscriptions and making sure a subscription triggered an email campaign with instructions. 8. I dedicated an entire phase to building admin tools so I could manage the marketing language on the landing page and publish blog entries. 9. After each phase, I had the Opus/Codex combination perform an adversarial code-review-and-fix cycle. I then ran the `/ai-regression-testing` skill from the ECC repository on GitHub to catch issues the code review missed. 10. After every third phase, I prompted Claude Code: "Act as a senior QA engineer and go through the entire codebase looking for inconsistencies, functions that are in the wrong place, code that is overkill and security vulnerabilities." 11. When I had a product I thought was ready for testing, I prompted Claude Code, again using the Opus/Codex combination: "Act as a senior security engineer. Run this against OWASP standards. Find problems and suggest fixes. Harden this product overall." 12. As I neared the end, I asked Perplexity Deep Research and ChatGPT (Sol/High) to find SEO solutions for the product.

How AI agents run half my startup: smart deals, trades, services marketplace, dev process, and security testing

I use AI agents across roughly half of my startup, including search, security testing, development, and affiliate integrations. - Smart Shopping Deals search: It never relies on a single AI provider. I use a chain of backup providers for LLM-based search and embeddings with pgvector. If one provider fails or times out, the system silently retries with the next. A slow provider never hangs the request, and users never see the failure. In the worst case, the system falls back to plain search. - Security testing: I run the autonomous AI security agent Strix against my live preview after every deploy. It actively attacks the app the way a hacker would. - Development workflow: My real “team” is a four-layer testing rule enforced by the AI itself. Every feature has to ship with backend tests, component tests, full browser end-to-end tests, and test-data setup, all in the same commit. Claude Code doesn’t consider a feature “done” until all four exist—not just the code. - Affiliate parsing: One parser handles every affiliate network. I paste in the raw ad code from any network, and the same parser automatically extracts the banner link, image, and destination URL. No network-specific code is needed.
