About this Episode
John Nunemaker returns to discuss how fast AI tooling has changed and argues tech leaders should adopt Claude Max (defaulting to Opus), set up agent-friendly local environments, and roll that out to their teams. He shares how his company built an internal “brain” using LibreChat as a self-hosted interface, enabling non-engineers to query company data and generate insights like weekly support summaries from various sources. The conversation also covers worktrees and Conductor for parallel, isolated dev environments.
