Day one was the install. Day three was the part I didn't see coming.
Here's what flipped me: working with a little team of background agents felt several times better than going solo. Not a bit better — a different category. I'd expected a clever autocomplete that occasionally surprised me. What I got worked best when it wasn't one assistant doing one thing, but a handful of them, each owning a slice and handing work back and forth.
For the non-nerds: one agent is an intern. A team of agents, each with a role, feeding each other work — that's a company.
So on May 23 I stopped fighting that and built a place for it. I call it the Bobnet — a team-agent hub. A spot where several agents get coordinated and made visible, instead of all flying blind.
nerd: the name "Bob" is a tip of the hat to Dennis E. Taylor's Bobiverse novels — one mind that replicates into a whole self-coordinating fleet. (If you haven't read them: do. The name fit too well to pass up.)
Making it legible
The trick wasn't anything clever. It was giving the team the boring things a real team has: a quick status before each step, a shared place to see where things stand, and a little live board so I could actually watch the work instead of guessing. One agent sits above the rest as the lead — it plans, it kicks off the others, and it's the one I actually talk to. The rest report up.
Sounds mundane. It's also the whole reason a bunch of agents stays something you can read, instead of a swarm that runs away from you.
That was the Bobnet. A week later it stopped being one team — and became a universe.
