How I run autonomous coding agents from my phone with OpenAI Symphony + Linear
Claire Vo and Alessio Finelli discuss how Alessio uses OpenAI's Symphony and Linear to manage autonomous coding agents, streamlining software development tasks and tracking costs. They also explore AI's broader impact on small businesses, demonstrating how it automates complex, heterogeneous data tasks in the physical world, such as trading Pokémon cards and inventory management. The conversation concludes with practical strategies for optimizing agent performance and troubleshooting when AI models go off-rails.
- Track token usage ruthlessly: Don't just prompt and hope for the best. Alessio Finelli, a builder working with OpenAI's Symphony, constantly tracks token usage to pinpoint where an AI agent's tools or prompts fall short. This approach lets you identify efficiency bottlenecks before they balloon cos… Read →
