What I'm Doing Now|

Updated September, 2026, from my room in Dhaka, where it's still raining outside, with a coffee in my table, as always!

(This is a /now page: what I'm focused on right now.)

Currently

What is Muntasir Mahdi working on now? SkillCache, a hand-checked library of 1,657 learning resources across 55 skills, which I founded and launched in 2026. Writing two books. Running the BanglayAI newsletter every week. Hosting the Mahdi & Mamun podcast. Running the MMIC and MMMC communities. Practicing AI daily. Building U-GEO, an AI visibility audit tool. Reading Thinking, Fast and Slow, and Clear Thinking. Based in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Building SkillCache

SkillCache launched on August 18, 2026. It's a hand-checked library of learning resources across 55 skills: courses, tools, ebooks, communities, practice platforms. 1,657 resources right now. 1,490 of them free. Every link verified by hand, every price checked, updated weekly.

It started with my own bookmarks. 500+ resources I'd saved over the years, plus 1,000+ more that Hermes and I found and verified together. The point is not to hoard files. The point is to know which lake has the fish.

There are 130+ agent skills in the catalog too, verified by GitHub stars, for people building their own AI workflows.

The catalog grows every Sunday. I hand-pick the resources, Hermes pushes them live.

Building U-GEO

U-GEO is an AI visibility audit tool I built with Hermes. It asks AI engines what they actually say about your brand, checks the answers against real sources, and hands you the files to get found more — llms.txt, robots.txt rules, schema, content drafts. Free with your own API key, $1 for a full audit.

Writing and creating

I'm writing two new books right now. Online Bebshar Psychology and Shunno Theke AI.

Alongside the books, I write short posts daily on mental tools, and applied AI. Making videos too. And running the BanglayAI newsletter, one edition every week.

But the books are where my head is right now.

Building with Hermes

Most of what I build these days, I build with Hermes. Hermes is my AI agent. I talk, it works.

I'm not a coder. I never wrote the code for SkillCache, and I don't write the code for this website. I describe what I want, Hermes builds it, I check the work, I break things, Hermes fixes them. Repeat until it's right.

It sounds like a trick until you watch it happen. SkillCache was built this way, pixel by pixel. So was this site. Hermes runs the weekly research loops, keeps the trackers updated, and logs everything so nothing gets lost between sessions.

The closest thing I have to a full-time team. And it never sleeps.

Learn with Muntasir

I've planned 50 products for learnwithmuntasir.com. Building them one by one. Soon they will be live.

Reading and learning

Rereading Thinking, Fast and Slow, but this time with a writer's eye. Kahneman packs more insight into one paragraph than most authors do in a chapter. I'm studying how he does it. Rereading the full Himu and Misir Ali series for the third time. Mainly to improve my nonfiction_book_writer_agent.

Also working through Clear Thinking. Good reminder that knowing and doing are different muscles.

Reading habit: late night, after 1am.

Podcast

Mahdi & Mamun is still running. Season 1 is completed though. Now we're planning a big distribution move with our season 1 content. And also searching for season 2 guests who could teach us more from their experiences. We are building an evergreen library of learning, one episode at a time.

Communities

Running two communities. MMIC is being restructured right now: new content, new rules, new shape. The other one, MMMC, is in founders phase with a public launch planned for 2027.

Practicing AI

Daily at least 2 hours, I'm giving to learning and practicing and building various types of AI related tech and tools and programs. Enjoying every day of it btw!

In the meantime: Dhaka is too noisy, outside and inside. And my brain still lights up at 3am with ideas that look brilliant in the dark and questionable by breakfast.
