How I Used Claude for Root Cause Analysis

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 22:07:00 +0530

In one of the projects I am working on I recently faced quite an interesting issue. This is a microfrontend application which is being added into another application by using Module Federation in Vite . Both the host and the microfrontend use ReactJS. Now this microfrontend is using a frontend design framework which is also used by the host application.

One day we opened this microfrontend in the host and saw the typography was off. It was falling back to the browser’s default style. I asked one of my team members to look into this issue. Later we suspected that the issue was caused by an update in the design framework version in the host, which is now different from what it is in the microfrontend.

Stealing Simon Willison's Proofreader

Every post on this site gets read by a machine before it gets read by you. The prompt doing the reading isn’t mine — it’s Simon Willison’s Proofreader prompt . I’ve just put it into a Claude Skill, so instead of digging up the prompt and pasting it in, I invoke it in Claude:

/proofread content/posts/my-post/index.md

You can find it here .

I’ve also ported his alt text prompt into a write-alt-text skill . I’ve made a few changes to suit my needs — for example, the skill updates the cover image itself, so I review the result instead of having to ask for it first.

How I Built a Desktop App I Had No Business Building — Part 1

Wed, 15 Jul 2026 22:49:00 +0530

I always wanted a desktop app for improving my speaking skills. I liked the idea of speaking for one minute on a random topic without looking at any notes and without repeating myself. I got to know about this from a YouTube video . It’s also called JAM (Just a Minute). It was first popularized by the BBC Radio show .

I came across one app on macOS - JAM - AI Speaking Coach but it lacked some important features, such as recording a video (it supports only audio, so you can’t see yourself), no second take (it’s helpful to practice a second time after taking notes to see the improvement) and progress tracking.

Running a coding agent inside a sandbox

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 19:22:00 +0530

I wanted to run a coding agent in a sandbox because if we are giving it full permission mode then it can be risky.

I came across Docker AI sandboxes which come with the built-in defaults needed to run coding agents. They support these coding agents out of the box.

I ran the following commands to set this up on macOS.

brew trust docker/tap
brew install docker/tap/sbx
sbx login

I needed to sign up with Docker, which I believe should be optional given these sandboxes are free to use even for commercial purposes. It’s a challenge in an enterprise setting, as we might need to get this approved before using it.
