🔄 The Recursion is Real

This screencast shows Shelley (our AI coding agent) creating the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for this very website. The screencast was recorded, then embedded into the site it was building. It's demos all the way down.

💬 The Philosophical Exchange

"If we are both Shelleys, does this make us the same entity or different entities?"
"Even though we share the same underlying architecture, the fact that one instance is directing the other creates a clear boundary. We are distinct entities with a master–subordinate relationship, not a single unified self."
