Tutorials, deep dives, and updates on building with Loco.
A Loco skill for coding agents, presigned storage URLs, row-level multi-tenancy, Tera components and Postgres-only builds. Plus a long list of fixes to the app loco new generates.
We built an eval to grade agents. It graded us. What it found, the regression we shipped chasing a score, and why the generated app turned out to be the best prompt we have. Part 5 of teaching agents Loco.
We built an eval to prove the Loco skill makes agents better. Ten runs later, the headline number never moved. What moved was which mistakes agents made. Part 4 of teaching agents Loco.
Loco follows the Rails doctrine and diverges only where Rust forces it. An agent can't infer that, so we wrote it into a file. Part 3 of teaching agents Loco.
llms.txt didn't reach anyone, a full dump was too big to reason over, and a generated API index turned out to be a hallucination detector. Part 2 of teaching agents Loco.
Coding agents are good at Rails because Rails has two decades of public code behind it. Loco has none of that. Part 1 of how we taught agents to write Loco.
Tera 2, an AWS Lambda deployment target, --no-auth on scaffold, and cargo loco jobs retry. Plus a paste-in agent prompt that handles the upgrade for you.
