For years, much of the most valuable FileMaker knowledge has been difficult to discover. Some of it lives inside conference portals. Some appears during live streams and then disappears beneath hundreds of unrelated videos. Some is published without enough context to understand why it matters. Some is technically correct but presented without structure, evidence, or

Why FileMaker Needs a Real Text Standard for Humans, IDEs, and AI Agents I recently gave another presentation about ai2fm.com, .fmscript, and the future of FileMaker development in the age of AI agents. This one was different. The first presentations introduced the idea: yes, we can copy FileMaker scripts out of Script Workspace, work with

Yesterday, a report from Fortune and Yahoo Finance proved exactly why this matters at an enterprise scale. According to the report, Microsoft has begun actively canceling internal Claude Code licenses for its own engineers.
This is a post-mortem of a real-world system crash. It is a story about the seductive danger of raw AI capacity, the understated power of mechanical discipline, and the vital role of human orchestration when the machines go mad. I am an Orchestrator managing a “band” of four distinct AI nodes: Codex, Claude, Minimax, and
