Developer lets an AI agent run his MacBook workflow while he acts as advisor
rudrank · x · 2026-11-10
rudrank is experimenting this week with handing day-to-day work to an agent bot (Rork MTS) that operates his MacBook and Mac mini using existing subscriptions. The screenshot shows the agent handles coding, a library, computer control, Slack integration, and 4 routines — autonomously deleting directories and auditing pull requests. His role shifts to advisor/observer, deliberately trying not to be the bottleneck.
