Testing out audio reactivity and vibecodable shader modules in Sentinel. Describe an effect, Claude builds the node and tests it via mcp. Stack it with real-time SDXL and you get this! More on how this works below.

I built an agentic system that taught itself the Blender donut tutorial by watching it on YouTube. It watched the tutorials, extracted the steps, filled in the gaps in own tooling and completed the entire thing autonomously.

I don't think i can go back to regular software anymore exploring a crazy combo of real-time depth estimation, raymarched SDFs, StreamDiffusion and BiRefNet. The entire setup was authored by GPT 5.6 Sol and Luna in Sentinel over MCP while I steered it in real-time.

Never been able to explore latent space like this before.. 👀

This is what directing an AI creative studio looks like. I gave my orchestration system a reference image and had it deploy three different interpretations across three machines running Blender simultaneously, all visible from a single dashboard. When one direction looks promising, I branch from it. The system copies the files to the other machines and keeps exploring from that new starting point. Branch, direct, branch again. Each split opens up a new creative path while I give notes in real-time. The number of creative directions I can explore simultaneously is only limited by how many computers I have.

been building an agent-native, node-based, real-time environment. as a test, I gave gpt-5.6 sol a prompt to plan out its own setup and go into a loop of creative exploration until it felt that it was done. it invented every node, every data type, every connection and all of it comes out modular and human-readable. i could open any piece and steer while it built

playing around with audio reactivity in sentinel running audio straight into the gpu buffer let opus 5 create this entire beat detection technique + interface as an interactive shader. sdxl streamdiff images are generated, depth mapped, cut out and spawned in real time

I asked opus 5 to make me an interactive water demo and it absolutely delivered. its pretty wild what's possible when you are designing software specifically for the harness

Vibe coded some custom interfaces with the Push 2 using Claude. I gave it some references, creative direction and a good environment to develop and test midi integrations and it ran with it.

im blown away with this highly controllable shader system that opus 5 built inside of sentinel i gave it an image reference and it made a procedural system + custom ui to create infinite variations with no assets

A few weeks ago I gave Opus 4.6 a pack of stage assets in Unreal Engine, had it analyze all the example levels, then told it to build a stage. It assembled the whole thing, checked its own work from multiple camera angles, and when I gave it notes (trusses too short, stairs clipping through a crowd barrier) it fixed everything autonomously. It's gotten a lot better since then

Can finally explore latent space through feedback loops in real time with the new #streamdiffusion setup from Lyell. Being able to guide it with my mouse in real time is way too much fun
