What is mattwood.fyi?

A live, structured feed of riffs and links from Matt Wood, Chief AI & Technology Officer at AWS — readable by people and queryable by agents as a typed knowledge graph.

Is there an API and is it free?

Yes. A public, read-only query API is available with no authentication and no API keys. See https://mattwood.fyi/openapi.json and https://mattwood.fyi/docs.

How should an AI agent use this site?

Fetch https://mattwood.fyi/feed.json for the full structured feed, or query the API for keyword/semantic search and the connection graph. See https://mattwood.fyi/agents/ for when-to-use guidance.

Load-Bearing Vocabulary of Claude Both focus on vocabulary and semantic precision as critical to effective AI operation — DDD uses bounded contexts and ubiquitous language while Load-Bearing Vocabulary examines how specific terms shape Claude's behavior
Agentic Coding: LLM Agents, Testing, and Hallucination Risks Both examine agentic coding challenges in real codebases — DDD agents focus on semantic clarity in legacy systems while the agentic coding piece addresses testing and hallucination risks agents face in the same context
SWE-bench Science: Coding Agents for Engineering Tasks SWE-bench evaluates coding agents on engineering tasks; domain-driven agents provide an architectural framework for how such agents should be oriented within complex codebases to improve task performance

Supports

Understanding is the new bottleneck The DDD approach directly addresses the 'understanding bottleneck' — using domain-driven design to clarify system semantics is precisely a method for improving AI comprehension of complex legacy code
AI-Driven Development Life Cycle: Reimagining Software Engineering Both address how AI integrates into software engineering workflows; the DDD article provides a principled methodology for introducing LLM agents into existing systems, complementing the broader AI-driven SDLC reimagining

Challenges

AI Coding and the Bug Selection Problem The bug selection problem in AI coding stems partly from poor semantic understanding of codebases; domain-driven agents propose a structured solution to give AI models better context, potentially reducing this failure mode

Supported by

Mireye: Physical World AI Infrastructure Mireye's location-based APIs and physical world data infrastructure directly enables domain-driven agents by providing the geospatial and proximity data layer agents need to reason about real-world contexts
GDM Science Skills: Agentic Scientific Workflows Domain-Driven Agents' framework of organizing agents around domain knowledge directly validates GDM's approach of grounding scientific agents in 30+ specialized databases and domain-specific tools
Harness Engineering Paper Collection Domain-Driven Agents addresses the infrastructure and scaffolding surrounding model weights, directly within the harness engineering domain the collection surveys
Building a Software Factory: Merging 1000 PRs in a Week Domain-driven agent design principles are validated by the five-stage evolution described in the Software Factory, where domain specialization of agents enabled the scaling breakthrough

AI Agents on AWS Domain-Driven Agents shares the practical agent architecture focus of the AWS book, both addressing how to structure intelligent agents for real-world deployment
Pizza Bot - Local-First AI Agent Inbox Both address architectural patterns for AI agents - Pizza Bot implements a local-first inbox for long-running agents while Domain-Driven Agents focuses on structuring agent behavior around domains

I'm Matt Wood, and this is For Your Information. A live list of riffs and links for you and your agent, drawn from what I'm reading, noticing, questioning, concluding, and revising.
