Great idea, let’s counter the power of a handful of large private organisations by putting that power in the hands of a single large government. What could possibly go wrong?

Just trying to be helpful. I couldn’t see any other way to interpret the question below except as someone who doesn’t know how tool calls get done and who might therefore value a little insight. Didn’t mean to be patronising, apologies if I misinterpreted your question.

> So if I understand it correctly, the tool calls are not actually done by the model?

In no sense is that true of a Catholic Mass. Nor, from what I hear, of an Orthodox liturgy though I’m no expert there. It might be true of some Evangelical Sunday worship services but they cannot be called a “Mass”

You store the future alarm as a wall clock time and date plus location, without making any assumptions about what the civil time offset is going to be on that particular date in that location. When the time comes, whatever system has to read your record and raise the alarm will know what the local time is.

For the same reason people say "Greta Gerwig made this film" even though it took literally hundreds, or even thousands, of individuals to bring her or any other director's vision to life. Unless you've got a super tiny magnet to flip the individual bits inside your RAM, there's always been some chain of tools that translates your intent into an actual running system. You can't even hand-write assembly language without having to rely on an assembler to convert that into actual machine code that is executed by your CPU. Writing in any high-level language, like we all did three years ago, relied on an entire stack of tools to convert that into something that was compiled, deployed and executing somewhere. Would you say "Visual Studio built it" rather than "I built it"? Even if you did, Visual Studio, or whatever IDE/compiler/etc you are relying on, is only the top level in that very deep stack. Claude is just another layer on top of that, which converts your intentions and ideas into code that still has to go through all those other layers before it does anything useful for anyone.

There are still hobby blacksmiths in the world. And at least a bunch of people willing to say they appreciate the craft and effort that goes into that. A very small number of people and companies are still willing to pay actual money for that handcrafted work. But the economic circumstances that cause “Smith” to become the post popular surname in English are long gone, and never coming back.

Yeah I keep getting “bell curve meme” vibes when I read about all these super complicated handrolled ways people have of getting multi agent setups to work… I’m more likely to be at the caveman end of the spectrum than the guru end but things are moving so fast, by the time I’ve heard about or vaguely understood these esoteric techniques I can usually trust that if they are any good then the good folks at Anthropic et al have already built it into the default behaviour of the harness. Reminds me of the obsession people have with wrapping a repository pattern around Entity Framework because it proves how clever they are.

This comment makes 1000 times more sense than the blog post intro itself. I’m not one of those people who thinks LLMs should never be used to write blog posts, however it’s up to you to tell the model what audience and tone of voice you’re aiming for - maybe try explicitly saying this is aimed at external developers who’ve never heard of your product and don’t know what you’re trying to achieve… makes me wonder if somewhere out there is a blogger’s equivalent of Matt Pocock skills?

Reads like classic Opus slop from before 5.5 - the first few paragraphs are absolutely impenetrable to someone who hasn’t read the prompt used to generate it, there’s nothing to introduce the context or background and it’s full of invented jargon summarising concepts that are never actually described.

Preserve context in the lead chat - let the subagents fill up their own contexts then only return the necessary information.

I'm never letting any of these models bake me an apple pie.
