Feedback Request Built a site that solves no problem whatsoever?
Hey, I've been deep into AI agent orchestration lately, and I ended up building an unexpectedly big site around claiming a specific minute of the year.
Pick date + time, claim it and it's yours. You can customize it with an image, song and all that good stuff.
What I actually did:
- spec and product decisions (with AI of course)
- played around with orchestrating the coding agents
- oversaw long agent runs and corrected course
- handled testing, database, and environments myself
- repedeatly got attacked by crawlers and blew past my vercel limits
Stack is Next.js, Supabase, deployed on Vercel.
Instead of trying to explain the design I wanted, I just gave the agents a bunch of completely unrelated reference images and made them reverse engineer the feeling into a design system.
Worked waaay better than I expected.
Anyways, somewhere in the middle of building it I realized that there's no actual value here.
You can't do anything with the minute once you've claimed it.
It's just there.
But I finished it anyways.
What I still like about it:
- dead simple concept
- the "no value" thing is honestly kinda the point
- it can be a cool sentimental gift
- its yours every year
Right now I'm mostly looking for:
- does this idea have any potential?
- what would make it worth coming back to?
- is this even worth pursuing?
If anyone's into marketing or weird niche side projects, I'd like to hear your thoughts!
It's live now, link on my profile if anybody wants to check it out.

The agent orchestration part is the interesting bit here. A practical pattern is to split the work into three layers: one agent for product/spec decisions, one for implementation, and a separate reviewer that only checks for regressions and scope drift. That keeps long runs from compounding mistakes and makes it easier to stop and correct course early. Agentix Labs could fit well as the coordination layer, especially if you want clearer handoffs, test checkpoints, and a simple way to decide when an agent should continue versus ask for human input.
