Hmmm i haven’t had any of these issues. I had one make me some playwright tool and it happily logs me into browsers, saves credentials, scrapes chatgpt for a response/or prompts/inserts file etc. it let me do this in remote browsers as well.

will enter (dummy/worthless) credentials into scripts and even let me commit and push to github but will cry about it every time

i mean even in the US politicans frequently have a JD? Whether you consider that a valid credential in this case for 'law background' is another thing

This is more like a harness for harnesses imo? or a managing interface. some have their own

part of the point is so you don’t need to stick with claude/anthropic apps? you can use other models i’m assuming

I think i built something similar after herdr was released but i can say the reason is at least

tmux is definitely usable but moving between workspaces/repos can be annoying if youre managing mahy many things at once. and difficult to organize. more over having agents manage other agents via tmux can lead to garbled input/output

i havent used codex. claude subagents i think arent the right comparison - the closer comparison would be claude managed agents. but i imagine one reason herdr might be better would be that you’re not stuck in the anthropic ecosystem

the person you are responding to seems to have massively massively downplayed iridium then….

As much as I hear this sentiment, and as much as all the smart software people around me echo the desire for this sentiment to be true; it feels like people say these things, but then at the same time say - well, Claude/Chatgpt is still marginally better for me now. But clearly they are catching up so maybe one day!!!

In that sense, I'm really not sure if Kimi/chinese models are really competing against Anthropic/OAI? Not to mention that for individuals, the subscription model is extremely different, and Kimi subs are (I think) worse value, and chinese API's maybe marginally end up cheaper than using american subscriptions.

i feel like this would be the equivalent of having all CS undergrads program with assembly and assembly only.

it might(?) work? but abstractions exist for a reason (mostly...)

Sometimes I catch myself assuming hacker news is representative of the general population and then I read comments like these

(I am excited to try this out)

aren’t domain specific (large) models already a thing? I feel like they have been for a few years now…

In the end what you said about letting the model know what tools exist is more or less what pi does regarding tools/extensions/plugins.

you can also switch the model at any point too after resuming.

But honestly i dont think there is that big a difference between these “minimal harnesses” to begin with so long as they have the basic functionality…

come on man, it has significantly reduced value, but your comment assumes that if any two people input the same prompt (or sequence of prompts) they would get the same working answer, where its very much possible he had some sequence of guiding, and the thing he is sharing is a working product. which has more value than a prompt that may produce a working product some of the time...

it is quite widely known that the chinese models are just quite shit for math. i think for coding tasks they really do quite alright.

To be clear: it’s not for lack of trying.

i mean marketing in some sense “feels” like fraud when presented in some very specific way, no? at some level it’s: generate interest about a thing when there didn’t exist any interest before. sometimes they generate interest about something that has no substance and that feels kind of fraudulent (this isn’t that case)

but in this case, this is product extremely boosted for super viral marketing, and this is the first time i’ve read about this boost since hearing of the product whereas everybody only really talks of its substance. feels like a magician kept a trick going for a very long time, people forgot they were watching a magic show, then the curtains come down and they reveal the deceit after (i’m being slightly melodramatic)
