from the post:

Time is an input too. If nothing is pressed, the model gets a WAIT token with a duration instead of a key, which is how snake keeps moving on its own.

It would be nice to freeze the terminal preview after it generates the text for when you want to flip between color modes and color vision settings. Otherwise it gets annoying to wait for each one to complete the animation.

Wouldn't caching be in favor of lowest possible latency?

Much better than your current demo image! The default vignette is too obviously digital

it likes mentioning itself in commit messages, though you can just tell it not to.

Pretty much everyone saying worktrees but I lean heavily on hot-reloading of both backend and frontend (to actually see what I'm doing) so it's too annoying to deal with dependencies and ports when things are isolated. Instead I keep everything on the main branch and just make sure to keep tasks pretty separate in scope, e.g. add this API route vs. fix this layout issue, so they don't step on each other. When I consider something done I have the agent commit what it worked on and start a new one.

Sure, but use the tool for the job IMO. GPTs are much more complex so should demonstrate a much more complex task.

No - it costs $0 already

It seems like everyone commenting here is already part of the hivemind. So maybe someone can answer an important question that I'm not getting at all from the docs: what does this actually do?
