GPT-5.6 Sol just raised the bar for agentic coding.
OpenAI’s new flagship model achieved 88.8% on TerminalBench 2.1 a benchmark focused on real terminal tasks requiring planning, iteration, and tool coordination.
But the score is not the most interesting part.
What caught our attention at LuvionSoftware is how the model is designed to work:
→ Deeper reasoning for complex problems
→ Multi-agent execution with Ultra mode
→ Stronger performance across coding and computer-use workflows
→ Better support for long-running tasks where one prompt is not enough
For software teams like ours, this could reshape the daily workflow.
Less time guiding every small step.
More time defining requirements, reviewing decisions, testing results, and delivering real value.
AI coding is moving beyond:
“Generate this function.”
And moving toward:
Understand the goal → Inspect the project → Plan → Execute → Verify.
GPT-5.6 Sol is now gradually rolling out across eligible ChatGPT plans, Codex, and the OpenAI API.
The question we want to explore is:
Can it accelerate software delivery without reducing engineering judgment?
What would you test first with GPT-5.6 Sol?

✨ Base44 × Contra #GiveItAGlow Challenge
I’m excited to share my submission for the Base44 × Contra #GiveItAGlow Challenge!
For this project, I redesigned the website of a real local Ju-Jutsu school, focusing on creating real value for both future members and the business itself.
Rather than changing the club’s identity, I modernized the overall experience while preserving its original branding and recognizable character.
Before
• Confusing navigation
• Information-heavy pages
• No online booking
• Contact form was difficult to find
• No AI assistance
• Difficult for first-time visitors to know where to start
After
• Modern visual redesign while preserving the original branding and identity
• Cleaner information architecture with a much clearer user journey
• Fully responsive experience across desktop and mobile
• Interactive schedule dashboard with filtering by location and training type
• Online trial booking, allowing visitors to register without calling or sending emails
• Clearly accessible contact form instead of hidden contact information
• Bilingual AI Assistant (German & English) that answers FAQs and helps visitors choose the right training
• Faster, simpler, and more intuitive experience for both visitors and the business
The goal wasn’t simply to redesign the website.
It was to create a solution that helps the club welcome new members more efficiently, reduces manual communication, and makes booking a training session as simple as possible.
🎥 Below are the Before & After walkthrough videos.

Giving a Local Business the Digital Glow Up It Deserves
For the #GiveItAGlow challenge, I chose FACE FOUNDRIÉ, a beauty and skincare business with an existing online presence, and reimagined how customers experience the brand online.
Before
(https://facefoundrie.com/)
Their website shared the right information but left room for a more modern, streamlined customer journey. Visitors had to navigate through multiple pages to find treatments, compare services, and book appointments, with little personalized guidance along the way.
Using Base44, I designed and built a fully responsive website focused on simplicity, elegance, and conversion.
The new experience includes:
✨ A premium, mobile first design
✨ Clear service discovery for facials, brows, lashes, and skincare
✨ A redesigned membership experience
✨ Faster and more intuitive appointment booking
✨ An AI powered Skin Expert that helps customers choose the right treatment based on their skincare goals
Automation
To create real business value, I implemented an AI Superagent that answers frequently asked questions, recommends treatments, guides customers through the booking process, and reduces repetitive customer support. I also added automated appointment confirmations and lead capture to streamline communication and improve the customer experience.
This project demonstrates how thoughtful design and automation can help local businesses save time, improve customer engagement, and create a more memorable digital experience.
Thanks to @Base44 and Contra for creating a challenge that encourages builders to solve real world problems for local businesses.

nice one
For the Base44 x Contra Give It a Glow Challenge, I could have chosen any local business.
I chose Temple Lane Studios and the Irish Rock ’n’ Roll Museum because this one is personal.

I have been rehearsing there since 2018. It is where I go to disconnect from deadlines, systems, meetings, and everything else competing for attention. For a few hours, there is only the band, the room, the drums, the amps, and proper fat rock ’n’ roll.
Temple Lane is more than a rehearsal space. It sits inside a living part of Dublin’s music history—surrounded by instruments, recordings, stage memories, legendary artists, and the atmosphere of a place that still feels authentic.
That made it the obvious business to build for.
My goal is not to create another ordinary museum website. I am building an immersive digital experience that turns the history, energy, and character of the venue into something people can explore, interact with, and remember.
The concept begins with cinematic memory rooms, recovered photographs, performance moments, archival stories, and sound-driven transitions. From there, it can grow into a practical platform for museum visits, studio reservations, rehearsal bookings, equipment requests, and visitor-submitted memories.
The challenge is to preserve what makes the place special while giving it a new digital layer—one that feels modern, useful, and alive.
I chose Temple Lane because it has already given me years of great memories.
Now I want to build something worthy of the place.
