    Your legacy database doesn't need a complete rewrite to work with AI. Build an MCP server. Give LLMs direct query access to old PostgreSQL systems. Support tickets that used to require developer time? Now handled instantly.

    Great engineering teams thrive on purpose, not pings. High-trust teams know when to write vs when to talk. Stop treating every question like a fire drill. Start building systems that scale knowledge.
