Hello everyone, I'd like to give you all a quick update on the PerfAgent progress! It's been a wild ride since the inception of PerfLab, from forking DevTools to build a new experience using all of its power and trying to take my owns spin on Performance Tooling for all devs!

I talk often about breaking out of walled gardens, that you don't have to be on corporate-web in order to be on the web.

This is a fantastic article about the problem and how to (pretty easily) fight it. Well worth reading.

Also, @strange.website is a rad human being.

I have a 'neuve' side project and I'll start writting more about it here.

This time the writeup brings some of my experience when developing the browsing aspect of, I stopped telling AI agents what to build.

What a banger of an article

Great job by the @developer.chrome.com team and as someone who has been very deep into the codebase and actually saw the evolution written in this article, and extracted it to build PerfAgent

Here's your friendly reminder that CSS selectors are global and evaluated RTL, so if you have selectors that are very broad like `.container > div` you might be impacting performance in a measurable way 🙈

Wrapping up the year with my article for the Perf Calendar with my write up about how I ended up creating agent.perflab.io!

It has AI, it has Perf…what else could you want 😎🔥

I’m always happy to see my content in the Performance Calendar!

Thanks for the initiative @stoyan.me !

I’m super hyped and happy to announce that I’m getting even deeper into helping agents reason about software quality as I join QA.tech!

Since I’ve started working on PerfLab and then PerfAgent this has become an obsession. Now I get to do that full-time and I could not be more thrilled!

something very cool to see: Chrome recently shipped automatic <link rel="prefetch"> for all links in viewport

you could do it previously with libs like Quicklink, but it’s super cool to see this implemented natively

(it’s off by default, enabled with one html tag)

Wrapping up the writting part for my talk at @perfnow.nl this weekend and I'm beyond excited for this one. Prepare for a deep dive folks!

Hello everyone, I have just heard that the company I'm a lead engineer for is going to downsize so I'm going to look for the next thing from next week.

I'm looking to work with AI engineering and am shipping lots of different code automations and agent workflows.

Whist trying out my demo for the Agentic Perf Analysis and Debugging, I managed to use my V0 and my DevTools MCP servers to debug one of my V0 demo chats.

Using animation frame insights no less 😃

There's a larger goal of mine here, my experiments with MCP is to try to better understand how to enable good primitives for AI native systems.
Updates on PerfAgent, after spending some time implementing v0.perflab.io MCP server it's now time to create PerfAgent's MCP client.

It will be a great way to expose the agent to external services and agents such as @sentry.io Seer, and my own servers too, like V0.
