Pete Winn - Nostr Hypermedia

WORD5 #499 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟧 ⬛⬛🟧⬛⬛ 🟪🟪🟪🟪🟪

I've been quietly building an entire small business ecosystem, based on Nostr that is AI native and highly performant. I figured I should probably talk about it. The tech is unruggable, open source, encrypted to your keys by default, works with any agent stack with both private via maple or frontier models. We use simple shareable AI agent patterns that can access and update all business records with some sensible security defaults and base level encryption meaning they can't accidentally leak things or read/write where they don't have explicit permission. The magic piece that makes it all work is using Nostr as the identity layer. If every user has a key you can do a lot of cool things 😃 For anyone interested we call it Marginal Gains. Brailsford inspired and with a goal to continually make your operations stronger, leaner and more efficient on a continuous basis. Whether you're a bitcoin business, standard SME and just working on personal open source projects ;) Its come about from solving my own itch and wanting to share this with the local SME community we've been working with for a couple of years. Its crazy to me now to see us start to onboard absolutely regular SMEs in Perth Australia to Nostr and embed it in core aspects of their business. Not because they're trying to shit post to glory but because the @Other Stuff is so powerful. You can just build the Other Stuff. If you are wondering if SMEs will use Nostr? Yes they already do (they aren't aware of it), they just don't use it for the social media aspect currently as that is less useful to them. It may come in the future. If you are wondering if SMEs will use AI agents with nostr IDs and tools for managing their data and communications across systems? Yes, they already do. This is my literal experience as @Andy David and I are building this specific community in Perth, West Australia. Its a small group of use at present, but you would be surprised how blown away people can be when you start to show them what they can do and how much it appeals to them when you explain how you've built this in a non-extractive way with software that respects them as a business owner. Every person that has ever started a profitable business, is pretty fucking amazing. They have created something of value, for other people, from nothing. They literally made the world better in a meaningful way. It's nice to help them out to say thanks, and it is an absolute delight to work with them to take out their larger competitors by leveraging AI as a massively disruptive force that meaningfully impact where capital, power and leverage exist in your community. I would highly recommend doing this in your own local community. Got a bit carried away there 😃 Its fucking nuts 🥜 Great purpose, 10/10, would recommend.

You really shouldn't use someone else's agents. You'll want your own nsec, then a bunch of bot nsecs that you also control ultimately, can delegate to and burn if needed. Any specific agent you sign into will then need remote signing from your bot controlled keys... I think this is all going to get more confusing before it gets better

This opus 4.6 drop and Claude code update is giving me massive… “it’s September 2025 and Claude is now retard” …vibes. Constantly looking for ways to workaround and add complexity… instead of thinking a little more and fixing a core problem. Seems like a step back

I quite like the new artifacts UI that I finally got around to adding into Wingman. Nice to be able to co edit and read docs whilst we're also chatting about them.
