LinkedIn Is Retiring Its Search Filters. AI Callers Never Read Them Anyway
LinkedIn is replacing classic filter-based job search with AI search. On the API side of Calendrz, AI clients kept guessing parameter names. Here’s how strict validation plus helpful error messages fixed it.
Your AI Agent Will Book the Meeting. Will It Know When You’re Free?
Meta and Sierra’s Personal Agent Protocol, Google’s Gemini agent and Microsoft’s Work IQ all point the same way: agents will negotiate our time. Here’s why accurate, merged calendar data is the part that decides whether they get it right.
The opposite of AI slop: the agent that reads our production logs every night
While LinkedIn fights AI slop, an AI agent has quietly opened 42 merged fix PRs at Calendrz by reading production logs at 3 a.m. Here’s how it avoids producing slop of its own.
AI agents are joining your meetings. Do they know when you’re actually free?
Agents are moving into meetings and calendars. Here’s what six months of running an MCP server and a scheduling agent taught me about letting AI book your time.

Agents, MCP, and what a 19-hour build changed about how I think
The Calendrz Smart Scheduler went from first commit to default-enabled in production in 19 hours. Here’s the architecture — manual agent loop, 13 scheduler tools mirroring 30 MCP tools, prompt caching on two breakpoints — and the meta-story about AI-assisted coding compressing what used to be a sprint into a day.
