Stride Active Guidence

Stride Now Supports Four AI Assistants with Always-Active Guidance

What a day. Earlier today I rolled out Claude Code Skills for Stride. A couple of hours later I’m excited to announce that Stride now supports four popular AI coding assistants beyond Claude Code, with always-active instruction files that help developers avoid common mistakes and follow best practices when working with the Stride API.

The Challenge: Supporting Multiple AI Assistants

I know that not all developers use Claude Code. Many companies are invested in tools like Copilot, Windsurf, etc. Developers in these companies should not feel left out when it comes to Stride. Because of that need, I have just added enhanced instructions for GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf Cascade, and Continue.dev. These assistants are excellent tools, but they needed help understanding Stride’s workflow requirements, especially around:

Stride Has Skills

I am excited to announce a major enhancement to Stride’s AI agent workflow: Claude Code Skills. These skills enforce best practices and prevent common mistakes that waste hours of development time.

What Are Claude Code Skills?

Claude Code Skills are specialized instructions that guide AI agents through complex workflows. Think of them as expert advisors that activate at critical decision points, ensuring agents follow established patterns and avoid known pitfalls.

The Stride Workflow

How do Humans collaborate with AI?

When I decided to make Stride a Human-AI collaboration tool I spent some time thinking about when and how Humans would want to interject themselves into an AI driven worflow. Those of you that know me know that I have spent a significant portion of my life helping teams optimize their work and achieve better flow. With AI in the mix it causes us to rethink some of what helps us achieve that flow. We have to be realistic about what Humans do best (at this time) and what AI does best and find a way to optimize around these things. At the same time, many Humans are not comfortable (at this time) with letting AI take over completely and they want to be involved in the process. This is what I came up with:

Getting Started with Stride

Stride - AI-Human Collaboration Platform

This post is to help you get started. Through a series of videos I will guide you through the entire process from initial setup to working with your AI Agent to build an initial backlog.

Let’s start at the beginning.

Building your first AI Optimized Board

After you’ve registered with the system you will want to create your first AI Optimized Board. This is an extremely simple process.

Stride goes full AI

Building an AI-Optimized Kanban System: A Human-AI Collaboration Experiment

I’m embarking on an experiment to build a Kanban task management system specifically designed for AI-human collaboration. This isn’t just another project management tool—it’s a system where AI agents and humans work together as peers on software development tasks.

The Vision

Most task management tools treat tasks as simple items with a title and description. But when you’re working with AI agents (like Claude, GPT-4, or custom agents), they need much more context to be effective. They need to understand:
