BlogFactory, a studio that drafts technical posts

A local studio that turns a topic into a reviewed draft for this site. Claude researches and plans one ticket per section, local models draft the sections in parallel, and the studio checks the result against the site's house rules before anyone reads it.

Once DevFactory worked, I wanted to see whether the same shape could carry writing instead of code. BlogFactory was generated from a snapshot of DevFactory by a small skill that lays down new studios, so it shares the engine, the Studio and the design, and only the steps that are about writing are its own.

How a post moves through it

  • A topic goes in, typed by hand or picked from the Ideas board
  • Claude researches it on the web and plans the post as one ticket per section
  • Local models draft the sections in parallel
  • Claude assembles the post and takes out the phrasing that reads as machine-written
  • The studio checks every piece against the same house rules this site uses for its own posts
  • Separate reviews for accuracy, voice and editorial value, and a review note saying what I should do next

What it never does

It never publishes. Each post lands as its own folder with the draft and its review note, and I paste it into this site's admin by hand, where approval and the release calendar still decide when it goes out.

Stack

  • The DevFactory engine: a TypeScript runner and a Vite and React Studio
  • Claude Code for research, planning, assembly and review
  • Ollama for the section drafts
  • The house rules copied in from this site, so both sides check against the same text
