👋 What We Built in 12 Intense Hours

Baseline was humming from 09:00 sharp on Friday, 7 June 2025. • 23 formed 8 teams. • 12 hours of non-stop coding, prompt-crafting, and impromptu white-boarding. • 6 fully-working agentic assistants demoed live at 19:00. • Zero pitch decks — just raw terminals, tracing dashboards, and happy chaos.

We set one rule for the day: ship something that talks to another system autonomously. The rest was up to the teams. From there, we watched ideas explode across healthcare, finance, and pure creative mischief.
