I try to keep it up to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s been <a href=\"https:\/\/felix-arntz.me\/blog\/joining-vercel-work-on-ai-sdk\/\">9 months since I joined Vercel<\/a>! Time has flown by just like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m incredibly inspired in my role, truly surrounded by \ud83d\udc10s I look up to, in the AI SDK team and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vercel really is at the forefront of AI. I love that, and equally do I love that we&#8217;re focused on open-source and ecosystem flexibility. No vendor lock-in! The benefits of not working for a model lab, at least for my taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The speed at which many of my peers ship is crazy, and so is the attention to UX and DX and all the little improvements to make it even better. I&#8217;m learning a lot, every single day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coming from the entirely different WordPress and CMS ecosystem to the TypeScript world, I still feel a bit like an imposter. But I feel like I&#8217;m finding my way around and making progress working on very cool things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I launched and am maintaining <code><a href=\"https:\/\/vercel.com\/changelog\/program-agent-harnesses-with-ai-sdk\">HarnessAgent<\/a><\/code>, AI SDKs relatively new abstraction layer around agentic harnesses (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, Pi), for which I also maintain the adapters. This is where I&#8217;m spending most of my time these days since I took on the project in May.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I also launched <code><a href=\"https:\/\/vercel.com\/changelog\/enforce-consistent-code-for-agents-and-humans-with-konsistent\">konsistent<\/a><\/code>, a CLI linter that enforces structural conventions in your TypeScript projects. I&#8217;m super interested in deterministic requirements verification and enforcement for coding agents, and this is my primary contribution to that very young ecosystem.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other than these two projects, I&#8217;m improving other parts of <a href=\"https:\/\/ai-sdk.dev\/\">AI SDK<\/a> (whether provider support or repo tooling), and regularly working on things related to <a href=\"https:\/\/eve.dev\/\">eve<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/vercel.com\/ai-gateway\">AI Gateway<\/a>. Plus I&#8217;m maintaining a few smaller projects: the <a href=\"https:\/\/vercel.com\/changelog\/vercel-ai-gateway-plugin-for-wordpress\">AI Gateway plugin for WordPress<\/a>, a <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/felixarntz\/biome\">custom set of GritQL plugins for Biome<\/a> that also fall under coding agent verification, and <code><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/felixarntz\/new-next\">new-next<\/a><\/code>, an opinionated agent-first Next.js starter via CLI.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have learned so much in these 9 months, especially about harness engineering. And in the ever-changing ecosystem, what is best practice can shift quickly. Either way, I feel like I&#8217;m in the right place to stay on top of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last updated: This is a now page, describing what I&#8217;m currently focusing on.
