- Design for AI: Why Pure Functions Make Better AI PartnersHow a Functional Core Makes Claude Cheaper and More ReliableBruce Tate shows why pure functions and the CRC pattern (construct, reduce, convert) don't just help humans reason about code — they help Claude generate, verify, and stay correct with fewer tokens.AI Elixir Functional Programming Architecture Best Practices
- The Architect in the Loop: Critical Planning and the Limits of VibingWhy AI Plans Need Elixir Judgment Before ImplementationAI can produce a convincing architecture plan, but production systems need structured review. Bruce Tate shows how an Elixir architect catches security and design mistakes before implementation begins.AI Elixir Development Tools Best Practices Architecture

- Your AI Tooling Has a Home: Project vs. Global InfrastructureWhy Team-Ready AI Workflows Belong with the Code They GovernLearn when AI tooling should live globally versus in the project so shared workflows stay versioned, visible, and aligned with the codebase.AI Elixir Development Tools Best Practices Workflows
- Building Your AI Toolchain: Rules, Skills, Sub-Agents, and Slash CommandsHow to Layer AI Execution with Reusable Workflows Instead of Repeating PromptsLearn when to use rules, skills, sub-agents, and slash commands so your AI workflow scales with structured oversight instead of context-heavy repetition.AI Elixir Development Tools Best Practices Workflows
- Stop Repeating Yourself: How to Architect AI Workflows Like CodeApply DRY Thinking to AI Instructions with Axioms, Roles, and TasksIf you keep retyping the same AI instructions, you do not have a workflow. Learn a practical three-layer structure to keep coding agents consistent.AI Elixir Development Tools Best Practices Workflows
- The Morning After: What That 30-Minute Phoenix App Actually CostsWhy Working Code and Maintainable Architecture Are Not the Same ThingA fast Phoenix LiveView build can look impressive, but hidden structural debt appears when you inspect what AI generated under speed pressure.AI Elixir Development Tools Best Practices
- The Illusion of Speed: When AI Builds a Phoenix App in 30 MinutesWhy Vibe Coding Feels Fast and Becomes a Maintenance TrapA 30‑minute Phoenix LiveView demo looks magical – until you see how the yes loop creates hidden scope and long‑term maintenance cost.AI Elixir Development Tools Best Practices
