ローカルLLMの限界を突破する:軽量8Bモデルで「Tool Calling成功率99%」を実現する堅牢化フレームワーク「Forge」の実力 (English)

Breaking the Limits of Local LLMs: Exploring “Forge”—The Hardening Framework achieving a “99% Tool Calling Success Rate” on Lightweight 8B Models With the rise of local LLMs (Large Language Models), the environment for individual developers and enterprises to run models autonomously on their own servers is rapidly maturing. However, when attempting to build production-ready “AI agents,” many developers hit a common wall. This is the “reliability barrier”: when relying on lightweight 8B (8 billion parameter) class models for Tool Calling or complex multi-step tasks, output formats break, logic fails, and processes abruptly halt. ...

【Claude Code劇的進化】Karpathyの知恵を注入し、AI開発における「自律的な暴走」を完全に抑え込む方法 (English)

[Claude Code Evolution] Injecting Karpathy’s Wisdom to Completely Control “Autonomous Runaway” in AI Development “Many developers have likely experienced this: ‘I introduced Cursor or Claude Code, but the AI ended up making the code needlessly complex, rewriting unrelated parts, and introducing bugs.’” AI is an incredibly capable partner that generates code in faithful alignment with instructions. However, it sometimes acts autonomously and runs wild based on “excessive reasoning” or “false premises.” This is currently the biggest bottleneck in coding with Large Language Models (LLMs). ...

仮想通貨×予測市場の勝率を再定義する。AIエージェント「Fere AI」がもたらす自動トレードのパラダイムシフト (English)

Redefining Win Rates in Crypto x Prediction Markets: The Paradigm Shift in Automated Trading Driven by “Fere AI” “How do the players reaping massive profits on Polymarket convert information into execution at such incredible speeds?” In the intersection of crypto (digital assets) and prediction markets, this question holds critical importance. In an age where information asymmetry is resolved in the blink of an eye, the traditional process of a human reading news, interpreting it, and placing an order is already, frankly, “too slow.” ...

「Vibe Coding」から真のエンジニアリングへ。Matt Pocock氏が放つAIエージェント拡張ツール『skills』の本質 (English)

From “Vibe Coding” to True Engineering: The Essence of Matt Pocock’s AI Agent Extension Tool “skills” In 2026, the engineering landscape has been transformed by the widespread adoption of AI agents like GitHub Copilot and Claude Code. Giving instructions in natural language and receiving immediately functional code—so-called “Vibe Coding”—is now a daily part of development. However, in professional settings, a serious challenge has come to light: the “thinness of design density” and “lack of context” in AI-generated code. ...
