It's a bit ironic to fight protectionism with consumer nationalism, but good from a consumer awareness perspective.

Yes it booked everything, I just had to click the final pay button. I did run my itinerary against a fresh session like: 'There are errors in my travel plans, go find them'. It found one issue where I was scheduled to be at the wrong train station.

Claude code planned my recent trip to China. I'm a very experienced traveller but don't enjoy planning. It was a great trip.

My friends and I used Menuet back in 2003 to circumvent our highschool's OS restrictions. Impressive to see it's still around, great project!

Nice new website! Great project, I've been using it since the pro55esing java applet days. I got my 10 year old niece interested in programming by showing her some quick openprocessing code.

Thanks!

Actually, this project is born out of the chaining idea youre talking about. I've been dogfooding this with another app like google translate for language learners (https://languageread.com/ ugly and early for now). It requires a lot of chaining, and splitting text, and composing prompts.

So my first attempt for superfunctions focused on that chaining idea, my approach was prompts backed by AWS stepfunctions. I pretty quickly realized that it would help a lot to have a more primitive layer, so I switched focus to build a lower level layer that turns prompts into single units of execution.

Right now for that language learning app, I'm chaining everything on the client using bluebird promises (going to blog about this soon), this approach comes with a lot of pain points, so I'm still hoping add that composability/chaining functionality as a layer on top of superfunctions later.

Originally I planned to include output validation using zod but I scrapped it in favor of simplicity. I never considered regex validation that would be much simpler.

I'm open to adding validation if it adds value. Thanks for your feedback!
