      <title>A Floating Productivity Panel I Built for Android</title>
      <dc:creator>Fari Ji</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Sat, 23 May 2026 19:15:38 +0000</pubDate>

      <description>&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  Introducing Floatkit — a floating productivity panel for Android.
&lt;/h3&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The Problem
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every Android user knows this feeling.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You are in the middle of something — a conversation, a video, a document — and you need to do one small thing. Check a task. Write a thought down. Find a file. Copy a link.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So you switch apps. Then switch back. Then switch again.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every switch breaks your focus. Every interruption costs you time. And there is no native Android solution that solves this. No floating panel. No always-accessible toolbar. Just endless app switching.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The Solution
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Floatkit&lt;/strong&gt; is a floating productivity sidebar that lives on the edge of your screen and works on top of every app on your phone.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One tap to open. One swipe to hide. No switching. No interruptions. Just instant access to every tool you need — right where you are.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What's Inside
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;🔍 Global Search&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Search your files, contacts, calendar, installed apps, notes, tasks and the web from a single floating search bar. Everything on your device, instantly findable.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;📝 Quick Notes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Capture ideas, thoughts and links instantly without leaving your current app. Your notes are always one tap away.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;✅ Smart Task Manager&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Add, complete and manage your to-do list on top of any app. Never lose track of what needs to get done.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;📋 Clipboard Manager&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Manually save important copied text permanently. No more losing that link or number you copied a few minutes ago.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;🎤 Voice Memos&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Record reminders, ideas or audio notes instantly while using any other app.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;📱 App Launcher&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Search, find and launch any installed app directly from the floating dock. Pin your favorites for one-tap access.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;🎛️ Tools Panel&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Adjust brightness, control volume, take screenshots and access the power menu — all without leaving your current app.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;📸 Recent Screenshots&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
View and manage your latest captures directly from the panel.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fbfoicrdskhzbifl59zzb.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fbfoicrdskhzbifl59zzb.png" alt=" " width="800" height="450"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Privacy First
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Everything in Floatkit is stored locally on your device.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No account required. No cloud storage. No data collection. No internet needed for any core feature. Your notes, tasks, recordings and files stay exactly where they belong — with you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fbm13077gf7gwpxavxzvv.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fbm13077gf7gwpxavxzvv.png" alt=" " width="800" height="450"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Free to Download
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Floatkit is free on Android with a one-time premium unlock for unlimited notes, tasks and clipboard history. No subscription. No recurring charges. Own it forever.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;👉 &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floatkit.app" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Download Floatkit on Google Play&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>I Got Tired of Re-explaining My Project to AI Agents Every Single Session</title>
      <dc:creator>Fari Ji</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Thu, 07 May 2026 07:29:15 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/fari_ji/i-got-tired-of-re-explaining-my-project-to-ai-agents-every-single-session-288d</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/fari_ji/i-got-tired-of-re-explaining-my-project-to-ai-agents-every-single-session-288d</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Let me paint a picture you might recognize.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You spend a solid session with an AI coding agent. It understands your project deeply — the architecture, the decisions you made, the weird edge case you worked around. It's flowing. You're building fast.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Then you close the laptop.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Next day, you open a new session and... blank slate. You're back to square one, re-explaining everything. Which branch. What phase. What was left unfinished. What you already tried.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every. Single. Time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I got tired of it. So I built something small to fix it.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The Core Problem: Agents Don't Talk to Each Other
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When you're working with AI agents across multiple sessions (or multiple agents on the same project), there's no shared memory by default. Each session is an island.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What you &lt;em&gt;actually&lt;/em&gt; need is a &lt;strong&gt;coordination hub&lt;/strong&gt; — a living document that any agent can read on startup and write to before it leaves. Something that answers:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What phase are we in?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What tasks are done, in-progress, or pending?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What did the last agent accomplish?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Are there any blockers?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That's exactly what I built.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Introducing AGENT_SKILLS
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/Hadi99K/AGENT_SKILLS" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;AGENT_SKILLS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; is a small open-source repo with two plug-and-play skills for &lt;a href="https://opencode.ai/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;opencode&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  🔧 Skill 1: &lt;code&gt;init-agent-sync&lt;/code&gt;
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This skill creates an &lt;code&gt;AGENT_SYNC.md&lt;/code&gt; file in your project root — a structured coordination hub with four sections:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;AI Instructions&lt;/strong&gt; — tells every agent exactly how to behave (read this first, update tasks while working, write a handoff summary before leaving)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Current Context&lt;/strong&gt; — active branch, current phase, master reference file&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Session Task Board&lt;/strong&gt; — granular short-term tasks with &lt;code&gt;[ ]&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;[~]&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code&gt;[x]&lt;/code&gt; states&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Handoff Log&lt;/strong&gt; — a timestamped log for agent-to-agent communication&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Run it once at the start of a project and you're set.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="highlight js-code-highlight"&gt;
&lt;pre class="highlight shell"&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class="nb"&gt;mkdir&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="nt"&gt;-p&lt;/span&gt; .opencode/skills/init-agent-sync
curl &lt;span class="nt"&gt;-o&lt;/span&gt; .opencode/skills/init-agent-sync/SKILL.md &lt;span class="se"&gt;\&lt;/span&gt;
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Hadi99K/AGENT_SKILLS/main/init-agent-sync/SKILL.md
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Then just tell your agent: &lt;em&gt;"Run the init-agent-sync skill."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  🧹 Skill 2: &lt;code&gt;wrap-phase&lt;/code&gt;
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the end of a development phase, this skill:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Reads &lt;code&gt;AGENT_SYNC.md&lt;/code&gt; to understand everything that was done&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Writes a clean &lt;code&gt;## Phase Summary&lt;/code&gt; section documenting accomplishments&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Clears all completed &lt;code&gt;[x]&lt;/code&gt; tasks from the board&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Purges old handoff log entries (keeps only the most recent one)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Updates the phase status to complete ✅&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Auto-commits and pushes — no confirmation needed&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Just say: &lt;em&gt;"Wrap up the phase."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="highlight js-code-highlight"&gt;
&lt;pre class="highlight shell"&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;span class="nb"&gt;mkdir&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="nt"&gt;-p&lt;/span&gt; .opencode/skills/wrap-phase
curl &lt;span class="nt"&gt;-o&lt;/span&gt; .opencode/skills/wrap-phase/SKILL.md &lt;span class="se"&gt;\&lt;/span&gt;
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Hadi99K/AGENT_SKILLS/main/wrap-phase/SKILL.md
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;






&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The Loop This Creates
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Once you have both skills, your workflow becomes a clean cycle:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="highlight js-code-highlight"&gt;
&lt;pre class="highlight plaintext"&gt;&lt;code&gt;init-agent-sync
      ↓
   [build stuff]
      ↓
  wrap-phase
      ↓
   [new phase]
      ↓
   repeat...
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;p&gt;Every new session, your agent reads &lt;code&gt;AGENT_SYNC.md&lt;/code&gt; first. It knows what was built. It knows what's pending. It picks up exactly where you left off — no re-explaining, no repeated work, no lost context.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Why I Kept It Simple
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I deliberately kept this as two small Markdown files rather than a complex tool or plugin. A few reasons:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;No dependencies&lt;/strong&gt; — just a file your agent reads and writes&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Version-controlled&lt;/strong&gt; — &lt;code&gt;AGENT_SYNC.md&lt;/code&gt; lives in your repo, so you have full history&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Agent-agnostic&lt;/strong&gt; — any agent that can read and write files can use this pattern&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Transparent&lt;/strong&gt; — you can always open the file and see exactly what's happening&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Try It Out
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The repo is open-source (MIT licensed) and lives here:&lt;br&gt;
👉 &lt;a href="https://github.com/Hadi99K/AGENT_SKILLS" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;github.com/Hadi99K/AGENT_SKILLS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It currently targets opencode, but the underlying pattern works with any AI coding assistant. If you adapt it for Claude Code, Cursor, or anything else — I'd love to see a PR.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If this solves the same problem for you that it solved for me, drop a ⭐ on the repo. And if you have ideas for more skills — contributing is wide open.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;What coordination problems are you running into with your AI agents? Would love to hear in the comments.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
