I think this is the best time in history to start a company alone. Not because startups got easy. Because the cost of finding out if an idea is worth building has collapsed. A thread:

your coding agent gets dumber the longer the session runs. not the model. the session. sharp at minute 5. by hour 2 it’s re-reading files it already read and re-suggesting changes you already rejected. the context filled with junk and buried the signal. everyone feels this. nobody measures it.

Genuine question for people building with AI agents: Have you ever been surprised by an API bill? What happened? I'm building @agentbudgetsdk to prevent this and I want to hear real stories. Drop them in the comments.

hot take: the next big infrastructure layer for AI isnt compute its cost enforcement every company running agents at scale is going to need this

the scariest part of building with AI agents isnt the code its opening your billing dashboard the next morning
