Title: Two Tailnets, Two Terminals, One Pattern
Presented By: Brian Scott and Chris Cantey
Description:
Claude Code might be the most capable way right now to put an AI to real work: tool use, research, actual ops. It's also powerful enough that Chris and Brian both wanted a real container around it. They'll walk through the pattern they share (Claude Code + a scaffolding called PAI + a Tailnet), what each of them built on top, and why they think the scaffolding, not the model, is the part that outlasts whatever comes next.About Brian and Chris:
Brian Scott is a Principal at Adobe whose career in tech started at 18 as a Network Administrator. He's worked across IT infrastructure, DevOps, SRE, and software engineering at MySpace, Disney, and now Adobe, where he helps lead Public Cloud strategy and generative AI adoption.

Chris and Brian are both LA-based Tailscale Insiders who co-organize Tailscale community meetups in the area. They've been trading notes on personal AI setups and what it actually looks like to run a command-line AI like it's infra you're responsible for.
About O'Brien's Pub on Wilshire:
The covered patio at Obrien's Pub has been a great place to host LA DevOps meetups for our post covid revival. The food and drink are great and the staff are very friendly. O'brien's is also the LA home of Manchester United Football Club Supporters.
You may want to bring a jacket for the cooler months.
Regarding parking, there are meters on Wilshire and the side streets that expire at 6.Present at an Upcoming LA DevOps Meetup:
