* Adding in bot chattiness and adding additional bots so we can have voices at the table ...

Ergon Automation Labs - Dark Factory (new channel)

In this episode - the bots have stolen my vote, and other misadventures (mostly just an update of where my system is at) - this time with sound!

Personal build update (pi (the coding agent) integrated with the bot army (personal multibot ecosystem) - built on Elixir, Golang, Saltstack, and Makefiles (ducttape and bubblegum!)

There are 84 repositories, 30 bots, solo developer with ai coding agents. (using cursor, claude code, and now adding pi) - the system is able to communicate through Discord for additional input and commands outside of the build system.

The bots have a gossip and a voting system, the coding agent however voted for me...

Abby built a production-grade, fault-tolerant, multi-surface distributed event system with JSON Schema contracts, a multi-model LLM proxy, and ambient wearable output — to avoid making a to-do list.

She has 85 repositories. Her to-do list has one item: "finish the bot that manages the to-do list."

The system is designed to reduce cognitive load. It currently requires knowing Elixir, NATS, SaltStack, Jenkins, Phoenix LiveView, and the emotional maturity to name a debugging tool after film noir. The onboarding doc is the entire internet.

She identified a pattern in herself called "avoidance that looks like output" — and responded by building more output to document the avoidance.
