Ring Language - Innovative and practical general-purpose multi-paradigm language
Ring is an innovative and practical general-purpose multi-paradigm language. The supported programming paradigms are imperative, procedural, object-oriented, declarative using nested structures, functional, meta programming and natural programming.
In programming and software architecture, an Evolution Pattern is a reusable, high-level strategy for modifying or evolving existing software systems over time. An evolution pattern tries to keep software relevant for old and new users by whatever means are available, as new needs arise.

Building an internal agent: Adding support for Agent Skills
When Anthropic introduced Agent Skills,
I was initially a bit skeptical of the problem they solved–can we just use prompts and tools?–but I’ve subsequently
come to appreciate them, and have explicitly implemented skills in our internal agent framework.
This post talks about the problem skills solves, how the engineering team at Imprint implemented them,
how well they’ve worked for us, and where we might work with them next.
This is part of the Building an internal agent series.
Building an internal agent: Progressive disclosure and handling large files
One of the most useful initial extensions I made to our workflows was injecting
associated images into the context window automatically, to improve the quality
of responses to tickets and messages that relied heavily on screenshots.
This was quick and made the workflows significantly more powerful.
More recently, there are a number of workflows attempting to operate on large
complex files like PDFs or DOCXs, and the naive approach of shoving them into
the context window hasn’t worked particularly well.
This post explains how we’ve adapted the principle of progressive disclosure
to allow our internal agents to work with large files.
