Ah I was wondering why I couldn't get past 600 nits on my M5 why it worked great on my M1. Guess I'll just have to live without it for now

By any chance, do you know what Claude Code's sandbox feature uses under the hood and how that relates to your solution ? From what I remember it also uses the native MacOS sandbox framework, but I haven't looked too deep into it and don't trust it fully

IIRC from a comment in another thread, it's marked as deprecated to stop people from using it directly and to use the offical macOS tools directly. But it's still used internally by macOS.

And I think that what CC's /sandbox uses on a Mac

I'm not a native English speaker, but I read a lot of books in their original English. Being able to quickly look up a word you've never encountered is a god send

I find myself really missing this feature when I occasionally read a paper book, thinking about clicking the word on the page to get a definition.

I've downloaded a few from yggtorrent, but there might be some more niche/less public sites I'm not aware of

The weird thing is that when I tried to tell it to distill it to a much smaller message it had no problem outputting it without any followup questions. But when I edited my message to ask it to generate a larger response, then I got stuck in the loop of it asking if I was really sure or telling me that `I apologize, but I noticed this request would result in a very large response.`

It sparks me as odd, because I've had quite a few times where it would generate me a response over multiple messages (since it was hitting its max message length) without any second-guessing or issue.

I've had it refuse to generate a long text response (I was trying to concise a 300kb documentation to 20-30kb to be able to put it in the project's context), and every time I asked it replied "How should structure the results ?", "Shall I go ahead with writing the artifacts now ?", etc.

It wasn't even during the over-capacity event I don't think, and I'm a pro user.

Do you happen to have the name of the place you found it ? I'm in France, and I wasn't really able to find anything with a quick google search

I also found that passing all the codebase in a single file in the context works really well. I've tried Cursor et al, but I found that it not having the full context of the codebase (and having to do some back and forth for it to requests files) was slower and didn't really yield any better results. Granted I work on projects where the codebase fit in 100-200kb text files, but I'm still only at 20% of the context limit in Claude.

Also I found the UX of Claude to be better for this, especially their Projects feature. I can just put the codebase in the Project's context, and start a new conversation to ask different questions/solve different problems.

The only pain point I have is that it seems to be pretty optimized to only show changes in existing files, not rewriting them in full, which is a bit of a pain to copy-paste into my IDE. I'll see if I can write out a system prompt to force it to generate diff or a similar format that could more easily be applied automatically to my code.

Auth0 seems to be down as well, we can't use the login forms on our websites nor login onto the management console itself. Getting timeouts everywhere

Out of curiosity, how does your Image Similarity Search works ? Are you also using some feature of Apple's Vision framework, or running some ML model on your linode instance ?
