Magic Moments ✨ When AI models start asking each other for help without being told to, something magical happens.

Magic Moments ✨

When AI models start asking each other for help without being told to, something magical happens.

If you can explain it, it’s solved.

An old friend with many years of software development experience yesterday reminded me of the old saying: "if you can explain a problem, it is half solved". Chatting about it we agreed that even with the current generation of AI tools to support software…

The magic of AI search I just built yet another MCP experiment. First I created a Python script to process .md files: chunk them, create embeddings, store everything in a PostgreSQL database. Then I built an MCP server which can search the database both using semantic search (embeddings) and more traditional full text search as a fallback mechanism. I find absolutely fascinating watching Claude interacting with this tool, because…

Building a WordPress MCP Server for Claude: Automating Blog Posts with AI

Building a custom MCP server to connect Claude directly to WordPress, enabling automated blog post creation with proper formatting and intelligent categorisation.

And here’s the recipe I’m not confident enough in the tools I built this week to share them around just yet. As long as they run on my Mac, I’m happy, but I can’t really take responsibility for how they’d work for anyone else. Still, while I’m not serving up the dish, I’m definitely happy to share the recipe! If you plug this prompt into Claude or ChatGPT, you’ll get pretty close to what I’ve got running.

I’m not serving up the dish just yet, but I’m happy to share the recipe. If you want to build your own MCP server for OpenAI conversations, here’s the full prompt and setup: grab it, remix it, and let me know how it goes. After all, prompt sharing is an act of love!.

This morning I wired up something new: an MCP server that lets Claude talk directly to OpenAI models like GPT-4.1 and o3.

Spotlight → MCP

This morning I asked myself if I could make Spotlight on my Mac talk to Claude. Just a small experiment. I ended up building a minimal MCP server that exposes Spotlight’s index—files, apps, recent items—as JSON-RPC tools. With that in place, Claude could search my folders, read…

Scraping Challenges and Open Standards

Following up what I posted recently about Scrape wars, I wrote a longer post for my company site. Reposting it here just for reference. We’ve talked before about how everything you write should work as a prompt. Your content should be explicitly structured,…

Daily AI Tools

Here’s a snapshot of what AI tools and how am I using them on this 27th of May 2025. Things change fast, I’m writing this for my future self who will be moved while reminiscing these pioneering times. I more or less always have the Claude and ChatGPT apps running. Recently I have…

Mah... non proprio. Almeno qua a Ovest avrà nevicato si e no per 10 minuti.

How to prevent a BS explosion (or at least how to try to be part of the solution rather then part of the problem).

About that moment when every logo is beautiful

My Mac keep correcting the name of the place to “Bluesy”. Blue sky above, soul sold below, at the crossroads where the bluesmen go.
