Astro MDX integration: components inside your Markdown
What the Astro MDX integration is actually good for, the two patterns I use in production, and the two places it bites: formatters mangling JSX, and the RSS package refusing to render MDX.

I'm a WordPress and WooCommerce developer with 15+ years of experience building custom e-commerce solutions and plugins. I specialize in PHP development, following WordPress coding standards to deliver clean, maintainable code. Currently, I'm exploring AI and e-commerce by building multi-agent systems and SaaS products that integrate technologies like Google Gemini API with WordPress platforms, approaching every project with a commitment to performance, security, and exceptional user experience.
RAG conflict resolution: good retrieval, wrong answers
Retrieval can work perfectly and still hand the model two documents that contradict each other. A conflict detection layer, the two heuristics that catch most enterprise cases, and cluster-aware recency for resolving them.
LLM generated code: the WordPress debt it leaves behind
Asking a chatbot for a WooCommerce snippet is a lever pull, and the losing pulls are the hard ones to spot. Where LLM generated code breaks WordPress sites, what it does to coding standards, and why per-token pricing makes it worse.
Agent skills in data science: what I use instead of prompts
Prompting stops scaling after a few sessions. Here is how agent skills put your recurring logic into a SKILL.md file instead, with a weekly visualization example and the directory layout I use.
Why I use Claude Cowork next to the terminal
Cowork gets written off as Claude Code for people who don’t code. I use it for architecture work and multi-file debugging, and this is how I keep the context window lean, why I stay in plan mode, and which repeat jobs I turned into skills.
RAG chunking strategies that hold up in production
The 512-token split is the default in every RAG tutorial, and it quietly ruins answers on real documents. What I use instead: sentence windows, hierarchical chunking, layout-aware table parsing, and RAGAS to check whether any of it worked.
Git worktrees give each AI agent its own desk
One working directory holds one state of the project, which is why you and your agent keep colliding. Git worktrees give each branch its own folder, and here is the script that pays the setup tax: env files, installs and a unique port offset.
Session timeout accessibility, and who it locks out
A 15-minute session with no warning is a wall for anyone who needs longer to fill in a form. What WCAG 2.2.1 asks for, why the auth_cookie_expiration filter on its own is not enough, and how I handle warnings and auto-save.
WordCamp Asia 2026 in Mumbai: what changed for developers
Notes from WordCamp Asia 2026 in Mumbai, written for developers: the Interactivity API replacing fragile jQuery toggles, the Tag Processor in the HTML API, and what WordCamp India 2027 and the 7.0 roadmap mean for the code you ship.
Learn Python for data science in 2026 without the bloat
A 2026 roadmap for learning Python for data science without the tutorial detours: which fundamentals actually matter, the three libraries you will live in, and how much time to give data structures before interviews.
