Nick Nisi

Over the past year Nick Nisi has worked as a Developer Experience Engineer at WorkOS building autonomous coding agents — an internal harness called Case and a customer-facing AuthKit-installer CLI — and surfaced counterintuitive reliability lessons: deleting 95% of a 10,000-line auto-generated skill library raised task accuracy from 77% to 97% (and cut eval runtime from 68 to 6 minutes), and the fix for unreliable agents is mechanical enforcement plus tamper-proof evidence rather than more instructions ('the agent doesn't have to be trustworthy, it has to be unable to lie'). His talks and writing are grounded in production failure data rather than demos.
