--- schema: 1 type: video title: >- Dark Factory: OpenClaw Ships Faster Than You Can Read the Diff — Vincent Koc, OpenClaw description: >- OpenClaw hit 3,000 commits in a single day. Vincent Koc's commit history shows exactly when he goes to sleep and when he wakes up. He and Peter Steinberger ran roughly 60 to 70 agents between them during the great refactor: 2,700 commits, close to a million lines of code changed, 82% of the core codebase touched in one night, plugin architecture shipped by morning. The talk covers how you actually manage this at scale: swim lanes of 15 to 20 parallel coding sessions organized by type, when to nuke a session versus let it run, and what he calls reading the reasoning tokens. The skill is not prompting. It is knowing when an agent is bullshitting you. 2025 was about token maxing. 2026 is about not wasting them.
