We use AI assistants — for code, but also for backlogs, RFCs, and PMO tracking. This post is an honest account of the guardrails we built into the repository so that the humans, not the assistants, stay in control of a robust, industrial, maintainable application.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/beyond-agent-framework-wars-fred-and-the-infrastructure-layer/Sat, 21 Feb 2026 10:00:00 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/beyond-agent-framework-wars-fred-and-the-infrastructure-layer/Fred does not compete in the agent framework wars; it focuses on the production infrastructure layer for governed agent execution.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/durable-ai-agents-orchestrating-the-future-with-fred-and-temporal/Wed, 04 Feb 2026 10:00:00 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/durable-ai-agents-orchestrating-the-future-with-fred-and-temporal/Fred extends its existing agentic backend with a Temporal-powered execution path for long-running tasks. Workflows remain resilient through retries, heartbeats, and durable state, while agent contracts and tool boundaries stay explicit and portable.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/rag-that-pulls-its-weight-how-freds-retrieval-stack-leveled-up/Thu, 11 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/rag-that-pulls-its-weight-how-freds-retrieval-stack-leveled-up/Fred’s latest release strengthens retrieval: Lucene HNSW with cosine, semantic/hybrid/strict modes, corpus/global scope controls, chunk visibility, and attachment summaries injected into context. This post explains the why and the how.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/mcp-vs-rest-for-rag-in-fred-why-we-run-both/Sun, 17 Aug 2025 10:00:00 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/mcp-vs-rest-for-rag-in-fred-why-we-run-both/Fred uses REST for graph-driven RAG (Rico, Rico Pro) and MCP for tool-driven RAG (Dominic). Running both lets us measure latency, reliability, governance, and developer ergonomics—without changing our UI or schemas.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/ingest-smarter-not-harder-fred-gets-a-temporal-brain/Sun, 20 Jul 2025 19:00:00 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/ingest-smarter-not-harder-fred-gets-a-temporal-brain/Thanks to Temporal, Fred makes document ingestion as reliable as microservices — with automatic retries, fine-grained observability, and custom pipelines for push or pull ingestion. A true game-changer for AI apps.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/bridging-the-dev-devops-gap-with-ai-deployment-review/Mon, 14 Jul 2025 19:00:00 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/bridging-the-dev-devops-gap-with-ai-deployment-review/Instead of relying on fragile regex scripts or complex linters, Fred uses AI to catch mismatches between backend code and Helm deployments. This makes deployment safer and helps teams move faster.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/using-ai-to-enforce-code-quality-in-fred/Fri, 20 Jun 2025 16:27:22 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/using-ai-to-enforce-code-quality-in-fred/We use GPT-4 internally to automate Python code reviews and ensure compliance with Fred’s backend development standards. Learn how our AI review tool works and why it matters.https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/expanding-fred-with-mcp-a-playground-for-next-gen-agentic-architectures/Mon, 19 May 2025 12:00:00 +0200https://site.fredlab.dev/blog/expanding-fred-with-mcp-a-playground-for-next-gen-agentic-architectures/Fred is now capable of serving and consuming components over the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Discover how this unlocks new architectures and makes Fred a live testbed for building interoperable AI agents.
