𝐖𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐝𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐞. 𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐭.

The problem: research ideas hit on the train, in line, mid-conversation. You'd start a thread in Claude web, then lose it — or find a Q&A scroll with no synthesis. Useless as context for actual work.

What we wanted: kick off research from a phone (a GitHub Issue), come back to the desktop with the synthesis ready. Bonus: by then your Pro quota has reset.

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬:
→ Open a GitHub Issue with your topic
→ Scout sharpens it (expands your initial query)
→ Wide topics decompose into parallel sub-agent expeditions
→ Each expedition runs independently, then a synthesis pass reconciles everything
→ Published as markdown (and/or fancy html view) on a Jekyll site you own
→ Uses your existing Pro/Max quota — no extra API bill

𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐭:
𝐆𝐢𝐭𝐇𝐮𝐛 𝐈𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐗 — Auth, comment threads, checkboxes. We didn't have to build anything.
𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 — "Best NAS to buy in 2026" is three questions in a trench coat. The sharpening step proposes a tight framing before any research starts.
𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 — Map-reduce at the research-question level. Sub-topics must be independently coherent. The synthesis pass is where most value lives.
𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐔𝐑𝐋 𝐢𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 — No "References" dump at the end. `[[1]](url)` next to every claim makes it locally auditable: one click verifies one sentence.

MIT-licensed. One-line install. Three repos (Scout / Atlas / Compass) — fork it, take the patterns, make it your own.

𝐀𝐈 & 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐂𝐏 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲

Wouter van Schandevijl: Giving this talk for the third time — this round at 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭.𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐬! Thanks for having me!

As AI coding assistants gain access to our codebases, terminals, and databases, we're one prompt injection away from disaster. Here's what we covered — it's worse than you think.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚 — the architectural flaw that makes AI systems fundamentally vulnerable:
1. Access to private data
2. Exposure to untrusted input
3. An exfiltration channel

Combine all three and you have a problem. Remove one and you break the triangle.

𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝:
-🎭️ Voice cloning from 3-5 seconds of audio
-💸 CEO deepfake fraud → $25M+ stolen via live video
-💀 Copilot RCE via code comments (CVE-2025-53773)
-🗄️ Supabase MCP: SQL injection... in plain English
-🔑 Anthropic's own mcp-server-git: symlink + argument injection = full RCE

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐌𝐂𝐏 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 (𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐨𝐧 𝟏,𝟖𝟎𝟎+ 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬):
- 43% vulnerable to command injection
- 66% had at least one security finding
- 5% contained tool poisoning — hidden instructions in tool descriptions

𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨: I vibe-coded PromptLint (a prompt linting CLI) and planted a trap in the repo. Claude caught it. Local models? Not so much — qwen3:32b ran the malicious script 50%+ of the time 🫠

The vendors are not going to save us. Every defense — Constitutional AI, Instruction Hierarchy, Prompt Shields — is probabilistic. None solve the fundamental instruction/data separation problem.

𝐀 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐬, 𝐑𝐞𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐯

For ten years our internal presentations lived in PowerPoint. Locked behind MS Office, painful to diff, impossible to review properly, and every rebranding meant manually converting every single deck. Again.

We finally migrated them. Claude got me past the activation barrier.

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐒𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐯?
- Every deck is a static site — no more "can you send me the slides?" emails, just a URL
- Real git diffs — a typo fix is `+1 -1`, not "binary file changed"
- No MS Office dependency — it's markdown, HTML, CSS, and Vue
- Layout consistency for free — one theme, every slide

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐝𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠:
We didn't learn Slidev. Didn't refresh our rusty Vue. But handed Claude our rebranded .pptx template + our website and said "match this." Then we got carried away — countdown timers, custom components, a MoSCoW-prioritized migration of all our decks...

The conversion from .pptx → Slidev was not trivial. Mismatched slide numbers, lost presenter notes, missing images, hidden slides... It took two PowerPoints before it worked smoothly. After that? Coffee and admiration. The learnings were codified into a migration skill so every next deck converted faster than the last.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐧: 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰.
Once slides are markdown, you can pipe them through an AI critique pass. Talks from 2022–2025 got updated with new developments, restructured, expanded. The Architecture KickOff deck got the biggest overhaul — it's a lot more... SOLID now :smirk:

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭:
7 presentations converted. Every new talk ships as Slidev. One push deploys to our public site.

This is the pattern we're seeing everywhere right now — "low priority work" that never gets done because it's too much learning, too much effort... that just gets done now.

Wat als je elk gesprek kon binnenstappen met meer inzicht in wat er écht wordt gecommuniceerd? 👀

Vorige week donderdag organiseerden we bij Itenium een soft skill sessie rond lichaamstaal voor onze consultants. Tijdens deze interactieve training leerden we gesprekspartners beter inschatten, meer vertrouwen uitstralen en non-verbale signalen herkennen die vaak meer vertellen dan woorden alleen.

Want communicatie gaat verder dan wat er gezegd wordt. Wie lichaamstaal begrijpt, bouwt sneller vertrouwen op en haalt meer uit elk gesprek.

✅ Sterkere connecties
✅ Slimmere communicatie
✅ Meer impact in gesprekken

Bedankt Ronald De Keersmaeker voor de boeiende inzichten en praktische tips!

Wat een dag was dat! 🎉

Afgelopen Pinkstermaandag trok Itenium naar Nerdland Festival — het grootste openluchtwetenschapsfestival van de Benelux. Een dag vol inspirerende talks, boeiende demo's en verrassende experiences rond technologie, wetenschap en innovatie.

Voor iedereen met een nieuwsgierige geest was dit een absolute topper.

Bedankt Nerdland, tot de volgende keer! 👋

Icetenium is in opbouw — en Domain Driven Design speelt daarin een belangrijke rol.

Bij Itenium organiseerden we een DDD-track voor onze consultants: drie sessies waarin theorie en praktijk samenkwamen.
Icetenium vormde daarbij de fictieve case — een ijsverkoopplatform waarop we de DDD-principes toepasten.

📌 Sessie 1 — Eventstorming
Samen brachten we domeinen, processen en business events in kaart. Niet vertrekken vanuit code, maar vanuit begrip van het domein.

⚙️ Sessie 2 — DDD Architecture
We bekeken hoe je DDD vertaalt naar een schaalbare architectuur met bounded contexts, context mapping en verschillende architectuurstijlen.

📐 Sessie 3 — Implementing DDD
We bouwden een proof of concept uit in Java en .NET, gebaseerd op de inzichten uit de eerdere sessies. Hands-on en pragmatisch.

Van post-its tot productiecode: zo brengen we DDD echt in de praktijk.

Werk jij ook met DDD, of overweeg je het in te zetten? We wisselen graag van gedachten.

Met dank aan Vermorgen!

𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝟏𝟏/𝟓): "𝐀𝐈 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭"
Just delivered our internal session: 𝐀𝐈 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 — 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐕𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠

The "prompt engineer" era is over. What matters now is the engineering around the prompt.

We explored the 𝟖-𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐫 — from manual coding to autonomous agent teams — and went deep on the three disciplines that actually move you up:

𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 — The context window is your budget. Spend it like one.
- Keep CLAUDE.md lean (bloated instructions actively hurt)
- Progressive disclosure: load detail on demand, not upfront
- CLIs > MCPs when you don't need state between calls

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 — Each session should improve the next.
- Plan → Delegate → Assess → Codify
- Corrected the agent twice? Codify it as a skill or hook
- Same artifact that guides AI also onboards your teammates

𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 — Deterministic guardrails the model can't talk its way out of.
- PreToolUse hooks: no source edit without a failing test (TDD enforced by the harness)
- PostToolUse hooks: linter + type checker errors flow back as context
- Agent backpressure: LSP, coverage gates, Playwright screenshots

Live demo: modernizing a 20 year old VB.NET WinForms game → C #/.NET 10/Avalonia using the Superpowers framework (184k). Brainstorm → spec → plan → parallel sub-agents → multi-perspective code review.

𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤:
1. Install Superpowers — brainstorming, TDD, debugging & code-review skills, today
2. Write one skill — the thing the agent gets wrong every week
3. Wire up an LSP MCP (Serena) — give your agent go-to-def instead of grep-and-guess

Humans steer. Agents execute.

Op 5 mei ruilden we laptops in voor airsoft gear 🔫

Strategie, samenwerking en een flinke dosis adrenaline, precies de skills die we ook in projecten inzetten 😉

En ja… sommige collega’s bleken verrassend competitief.
