I never quite understood why agents should be treated as anything but normal software engineering. "Just" build a normal service and add an async call to some agentic framework, then parse the results. There is no need to "fl

>pretty shitty sandbox Well, speak for yourself. My MCP servers are pretty solid. There's nothing in the protocol making them inherently poor other than perhaps popularity, causing a swarm of people vibe-coding things they don'

AI for proofreading/spelling correction and reordering works quite well. My words, but perhaps structured in a way which makes more sense, with sentiment replaced by synonyms. Basically an automatic "second-pass" which I woul

Isn't much of this made redundant by being part of an existing system? Also, this level of detail is a recipe for being outdated once the issues and compromises starts coming in

I found that trying to keep up with their API updates and changes is more trouble than its worth, even with AI. The agents would need to reverse engineer from the OpenAI SDK source anyways, so why not cut the middleman? If I wanted somethin

I've had great success with the OpenAI agents SDK [0]. This way I've been able to build the sandbox + slack + knowledge-bank integrations independently and be very strict with what I expose to OpenAI. Looking at the Agents API, it

So it's without collisions, I take it? I got confused by the premise. To the fully blind person, the speed of light does not matter. He'll hit the object 5 meters away from him regardless if he sees it or not (as will everyone els

A bit narrow definition of a "cloud", no..? More like a microservice server on rails Bits missing from cloud being global CDN (selfhosted), routing, regional sharding, etc.

When writing agentic apps (apps which embed an agent for semantic work), exposing the same tools which are injected into the agents as an MCP allows for practically the same functionality to be debugged and run in a normal agentic harness.

Programming, much like artisinal chairbuilding, will be demoted to a hobby or niche. Software engineering will remain.

I am working on a very similar mcp server which allows agents to communicate and share notes without race conditions, using git and s3 as the driver [0]. Funny how "inventions" like these pop up independently. [0]: slivingdoc.dev

I've found that keeping very healthy test coverage solves issues like this. LLMs are very good at validating their own implementations with TDD.

So without sandbox: it doesn't apply. Without explicit tool approval step: it doesn't apply. Response in xml: it doesn't apply. What is the point?
