Ryan Castillo returns to talk about pivoting Knowatoa from an SEO play into an AI-visibility tool — and why the analytics everyone wants to track are becoming impossible to trust in an AI-search world. The back half turns into a deep dive on Ryan's AI coding workflow: skipping the Claude chat interface entirely in favor of firing off cloud agents from Cursor, letting them run unsupervised, and reviewing PRs cold instead of living in the conversation. Plus: why "throw away the code, not the plan" beats hand-holding an agent through every step, and why the AI labs have zero incentive to ever let you leave the chat.
