Thank you. Cool. Got a link to your guitar app? Would you like to trade feedback?

Thanks, those don't deterministically prevent the main loop from using tools thought, unless I'm wrong that's just prompting the main agent on when to use specialized sub agents

This makes intuitive sense. Can I ask what harness you're using that allows you to configure the constraint and how?

Thank you for your feedback - I have it working on iPadOS 26.5 (Chrome and Safari). The browser auto-play policy does require some interaction with the page before it will play (so the first key press is often mute, but should sound after). There is a button on the control bar to enable sound explicitly. I will look for more instances (not to ask the really obvious question, but do you have sound turned up or a bluetooth connection you're not aware of by any chance?). Thanks again

For https://www.asmusictheory.com, I built in a spaced repetition test section to aid memory retention, along with "a free play" mode for when you just want to explore.

Awesome, this is a great resource. I've been working on https://www.asmusictheory.com , which focuses excercises around an interactive onscreen / midi capable keyboard (where it makes sense). I'm building it as I learn myself.

Prior to this release, Agent Kanban - the online task board with agent harness integration for task management and context capture worked primarily with Github Copilot. With this release, the extension now supports Claude Code (the VS Code extension or TUI)

A music theory learning tool. I'm building bits as I learn new areas - https://www.asmusictheory.com

I also built a kanban board with agent integration and context management, with a vs code extension to go with it (also helps with git worktrees too): https://www.agentkanban.io

There is AS Notes - an Obsidian / Logseq / Roam alternative for use a s a VS code extension (is designed for use behind corporate firewalls, git friendly): https://www.asnotes.io

Also NumeroMoney: https://www.numeromoney.com - For personal finance spending analysis and budgeting.

AI has been a great 'exoskeleton' for me. I fortunately had some good infrastructure and solid application base templates from before AI 'got gud' and so building on these has been the best of both worlds - a solid base and improved speed of development.

The UK is still the 5th biggest economy in the world. Public infrastructure feels like it's under huge strain however, and there is also a big problem with inequality, which seems to be changing under Labour, albeit slowly.

This is a great point. LLMs can't speed up human decision processes and alignment.

AI is beat thought of as an exoskeleton, you'll be at a huge advantage if you learn how to use it properly, and you will, unfortunately fall behind if you don't. I still think we're going to need people who can reason about code, and the amount of code to reason about is exploding in volume. Think of it as doctors having access to better drugs and techniques - they can can cure more illness, but the bar and expectation of what they can do will just raise. And doctors are still well paid, because what they do is important and needs doing well.
