Plus: 13 beliefs about writing with AI, and an antivirus for the AI age
Sep 16, 2026 · 9 min readUpdated Oct 8, 2026
You probably know the person with an AI setup that everybody wants to snoop through. Their folders have names. Their agents have jobs. Their system knows where everything lives. Meanwhile, your system is still hoarding mystery screenshots and documents called final-final-2.
We feel this at Every. So we let the team see how their colleagues organize their AI systems. As we teased last week, head of consulting Natalia Quintero now hosts Show Us Your Folders: a recurring series where one person opens their AI workspace and explains it to the Every team.
Today, we take the pilot tour, share a workflow for reviewing your own workspace, explore Mike Taylor’s beliefs about writing with AI, and look at the latest Compound Engineering release.
