The identity barrier resonates more than I expected. I spent months managing my AI agent with a spreadsheet before I gave myself permission to build something proper. Couldn't shake 'who am I to build a custom dashboard just for myself?'

Turns out the spreadsheet was the wrong tool and the friction was compounding. Once I shipped it - rebuilt twice, still kinda embarrassing - (thoughts.jock.pl/p/wiz-…), the agent's output quality improved because I could actually see what was happening.

Your point about embarrassingly small versions is key. My first version genuinely was.
