🎙️ From TokenMaxxing to TokenMining

Architecture Corner Newsletter Podcast AI coding budgets are getting torched, and 2026 is the year the bill finally came due. In this episode, we dig into how token consumption became a productivity metric (and why that backfired), and what the industry is doing about it now that the free-for-all is ending. We will cover: Why token usage became a proxy for developer productivity — and how Goodhart's Law caught up with itThe provider-side shifts (usage windows, model restrictions, pricing model changes) that reshaped agentic coding through early 2026What's really driving your AI bill: subscriptions vs. API, caching mechanics, and model/thinking-effort tradeoffsPractical tokenmining strategies — from scripting deterministic steps to tuning your harness and mixing modelsWhere the industry goes next as cost-conscious AI development becomes the norm Don't forget to subscribe to our newsletter at https://architecturecorner.dev.

Using Open Telemetry to monitor what your coding agent is doing

Are you flying blind with your AI coding agent? In this episode, we detail what actually happens inside tools like GitHub Copilot and Claude Code beyond the prompt you type. We cover: How LLMs use context windows (and why they "forget") The sharp quality drop that hits at ~40% context usage How to use OpenTelemetry to observe token usage, traces, and system prompts in real time Don't forget you can subscribe, for free to the Architecture Corner Newsletter at https://architecturecorner.dev

The Challenges of Evolving Your Service: API Versioning

Once you ship a public API, you've made a promise. Keeping it while still moving forward turns out to be harder than most teams expect. In this episode, we will cover: What qualifies as a backward-compatible change, and what doesn'tWhy does introducing a new API version cost more than just writing new codeThe real reason clients delay upgrades, and what you can do about itHow to support multiple versions without duplicating your entire codebaseThe adapter pattern is a practical way to isolate version changes at the edgesKnow more here: https://medium.com/itnext/the-challenges-of-evolving-your-service-api-versioning-8008349a1154 Subscribe, for free, to the Architecture Corner Newsletter at https://architecturecorner.substack.com

Stop Chasing Updates: Building a Sustainable AI Coding Workflow

The AI development landscape keeps shifting, leaving many developers frustrated as they try to keep up with each new model, tool, and workflow. But what if the answer isn't chasing every update, but building a more intentional approach? In this episode, we will cover: How custom instructions can reduce repetitive prompting and improve consistencyUsing MCP servers to connect your AI tools with external data and servicesThe role of skills in capturing reusable workflowsWhen background agents make sense for your development processStrategies for adapting your workflow as tools evolve without constant disruption Check more details here.

Spec-Driven Development: A Structured Approach to AI-Assisted Coding

Architecture Corner Newsletter Podcast – where we explore practical frameworks and tools that shape how we build software in the AI era. As AI coding assistants become commonplace, the industry is moving beyond simple prompt-and-pray approaches toward more structured methodologies. This episode examines spec-driven development and how it bridges the gap between traditional software practices and AI-powered code generation. In this episode we will cover: The evolution from vibe coding to specification-driven AI developmentHow SpecKit structures the development process through constitutions, specifications, and implementation plansThe workflow from requirements to code generation, including quality checkpointsReal-world experiences with both new and existing projectsWhen a formal process adds value versus when it becomes overheadThe trade-offs between speed and governance in AI-assisted development For more details check ⁠⁠here⁠.

Software Estimations and Agile: Finding the Balance

Architecture Corner Newsletter Podcast - where we explore the practical challenges of software development and discover actionable solutions for real-world scenarios. Estimations and agile methodologies often seem at odds with each other, creating tension in development teams. Many developers struggle with providing meaningful estimates while embracing agile's flexibility, leading to either over-rigid planning or complete abandonment of forecasting. In this episode we will cover: Common misconceptions about software estimations and their actual purposeWhy agile teams still need planning despite embracing changeThe cone of uncertainty and how it affects project predictabilityWork breakdown structure (WBS) as a practical estimation techniqueHow estimates serve as discussion points rather than commitmentsBalancing flexibility with business realities and budget constraintsStrategies for improving estimation accuracy without sacrificing agility For more details, check ⁠here⁠.If you are interested in more information about software development and architecture, subscribe to our ⁠newsletter⁠. ---- https://architecturecorner.dev
