A podcast conversation between mathemagic1an (Head of AI at ClickUp) and pkiv on scaling agents for knowledge work, covering his time at Codegen and ClickUp's approach to building an "ultimate context engine":
- "Your agents are blocked by data, not models" — a dense context graph beats a smarter model every time
- ClickUp's Brain² Browser uses browserbase to fill forms and grab downloads, bringing external data into the platform so agents can work on the open web
- Evals-first stack design; Skills as memory for handling compaction
- Whether humans are done writing code, ultracoding, and the $120k Bun-to-Rust migration
