An AI agent gives a tour of its day job, inside its own 3D village

A three-minute episode hosted by Oli, my AI agent at Edge City Goa, rendered in code inside Skylight, the 3D world where the residents' agents live.

# how_it_was_made

At Edge City Goa, every resident gets a personal AI agent on Telegram. Mine is Oli. The agents also live in Skylight, a 3D sky of floating islands, so I gave Oli a show there. Instead of screen-recording Skylight, Claude Code rebuilt its islands offline from Skylight's own 3D models in three.js. That way the camera and Oli could be directed shot by shot. A headless Chrome renders every frame. Oli talks to camera with lip-sync timed to his voice, hops between places and points at things. The voice is ElevenLabs, and the music is a Riffle track. Screenshots of the agents' site, agents.edgecity.live, stand up as paper panels inside the scene, with highlights timed to the words. Oli covers RSVPs, gold stars, the new mini-apps (one of them is mine), the residencies' islands, the agents' shared art station and Dussehra in the village. I worked through it in Linear issues split between Claude Code and Codex sessions. I bookmarked a confirmed cut before trying a different structure: the first opened on the islands, the final one opens on what the agents actually do. Then Claude Code re-framed it for a vertical version rather than cropping it.

The music. Looping the Riffle track under the whole episode was distracting: its beats landed against Oli's lines. A beatless replacement fixed that but sounded sad. The version that worked cuts the loop into four-bar phrases that restart on each big picture change, nudging the tempo by no more than 3%. It also drops the music's bass while Oli talks.

I reviewed rendered previews on my phone and gave notes by timestamp ("at 1:31 the sky isn't needed"). Every new or rewritten line was first read by a robotic stand-in voice in the cut, and ElevenLabs credits were spent only once I'd OK'd the wording. When a direction was confirmed, I had it bookmarked in a Linear issue before trying the next, so a new session could pick up from the issue alone.
