Hopefully you're going to not feel overwhelmed with cloud code.

I know the terminal is scary and it's a big boogeyman, but I'm going to give you the blueprint how to use it.

I'm also going to share.

Consider this the ultimate crash course on how to use cloud code or any agent effectively.

So I mean, the best way to start these episodes is with sharing our screen.

So when we think of building applications using AI, using some sort of agent like Cloud Code or OpenCode or Codex, whatever it is,

There's a couple of things that you always have to keep in mind.

You know, the principles never really change.

One thing that it's important for us to understand is however good your inputs are will dictate how good your output is.

Right.

We're getting to a point where the models are so freakishly good that if you are producing, quote unquote, slop, it's because you've given it slop.

Right.

There was a time where the models weren't good enough.

There was a time where, you know, we had serious qualms and issues with the quality of code the models gave us.

But now we're starting to get to a point where even myself, like I'm reviewing a lot more code than I write.

And I never thought I'd be able to say that in the early months of 2026.

So very important for us to understand.

Our inputs, how good they are, how precise they are, how articulate they are, are just as good as our outputs and will dictate just how good our outputs will be.

And the way I want people to think about this is, Greg, is like imagine you were communicating this to a human, to a human engineer, right?

If you give them sparse instructions and.
