I came to a similar conclusion. I think the default options in many IDEs (Ask/Plan/Agent) are limited... 'Refine' feels like an improved 'Plan' in that it doesn't just jump right into building a list of tasks based on the initial prompt, because who knows what sort of flaws or deficiencies were present in the initial prompt! Can't always get everything right in the first try. XP

I don't think a specific harness is even necessary to get a boost from 'Refine'. Even a simple custom agent is portable enough... it's easy enough to take the existing 'Plan' agent definition present in VS Code and tweak it to be 'Refine' instead.

We all have something similar, it seems! I stole mine from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7726949/remove-tracking-....

I also set mine up to run on `git checkout master` so that I don't really have to think about it too hard -- it just runs automagically. `gcm` has now become muscle memory for me.

  alias gcm=$'git checkout master || git checkout main && git pull && git remote prune origin && git branch -vv | grep \': gone]\'|  grep -v "\*" | awk \'{ print $1; }\' | xargs -r git branch -D'

Personally I'm most fond of Calibre + Calibre-Web, which masquerades as the Kobo Store and lets you use the built-in Kobo syncing mechanisms with your Calibre library instead of having to do it all within Koreader.

> says Modos cofounder Wenting Zhang

I am absolutely not surprised to see his name behind this startup. I've been following his work for years at this point; his YouTube channel has always deeply impressed me, and he's done wonderful open source work in the realm of E-paper for quite some time now.

Kudos to him, and I wish him all the best.

As someone who self-hosts and who used the Pocket+Kobo integration _and_ who hacks away at their Kobo, hopefully folks like you and I can help keep the integration alive.

I already try to prevent the Kobo from upgrading due to unwanted changes to my Kobo patch configuration, so I'm crossing my fingers here.

I'm hesitant to ID myself in connection to this blog post. I try to lead a very quiet/private online life. Thank you for the response, though. :)
