> Several times a day I'll prompt regular Claude chat to "Clone x/y from GitHub and tell me how Z works"
We built a free tool to help with this workflow! Just prepend "ask" to any public github repo and get a chat box to ask questions on it :)
For example: https://askgithub.com/openai/codex

interestingly they support multiple graphics APIs (Dx11, Dx12, and Metal) through an abstraction layer: https://app.sourcebot.dev/chat/cmrcbnd6u00cvwa5bup88jf0j

We have a lot of folks using Sourcebot in their home lab as a nice free code search across their projects. Hope it could be helpful!

scrolls down the page...
> So is MCP really dead? Not entirely

As one of the cofounders of an open source tool (Sourcebot) we have seen the "AI slop PR" issue explained here first hand. The amount of of PRs we get now from people who clearly have never even deployed or used our tool is staggering. We're working on a solution for this that leverages our tool, and plan to make it available for free for OSS projects. If you have any ideas, please reach out to me: michael at sourcebot(dot)dev

Built a tool to ask questions on the Claude Code source code: https://askgithub.com/alex000kim/claude-code

I think most people would be okay with an exit tax if it's reasonable. Requiring the owner of a business generating €20k in profit to then pay €70k in taxes is not reasonable.
Canada also has an unreasonable exit tax. Canadian founders are taxed on 50% of the FMV of their shares on departure. So if you own half of a company that is worth $50m, your taxable income for the year of departure is increased by $12.5m.

> When you write code, how much of your time do you truly spend pushing buttons on the keyboard? It's probably less than you think. Much of your prime coding time is actually reading and thinking
Totally agree, IMO there's a lot of potential for these tools to help with code understanding and not just generation. Shameless plug for a code understanding tool we've been working on that helps with this: https://github.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot

This looks awesome. I've used GPT to do something similar but having a platform like this would be very powerful. Congrats on the launch! Very excited to try it out soon

I've never lived in NYC - are median studio apts in West Village really $6k? Website looks awesome but I'm hoping that the data isn't true

hey I'm Michael (the other cofounder). If the products are purely internal[1] then you're able to use, modify, and distribute the code as you please (even if you're a commercial org). If you have any additional questions about the license feel free to reach out at [email protected]
The Fair Source website is a great resource to learn more: https://fair.io/
[1] The only restriction on the code is that it cannot be used for a commercial product that substitutes for our software. We have a few teams that have connected Sourcebot into internal dev dashboards! This is 100% allowed by the license
The agents are typically smart enough to invoke the Sourcebot MCP themselves, but some teams also write custom skills to guide their agents to do so in specific scenarios too (migrations, using internal libraries, etc)
