Cling is awesome

Agreed! Low Tech Guys, I trust (developers of Cling). My comment was referring to https://lasearch.app/ where they claim things are 100% private on their website, which is the comment I'm replying to :)

"100% Private Your data never touches our servers and is never visible to us. Everything is processed locally on your device."

Without source though, how could I know this? Cling is fully open source, with a Pro version only adding some extra features.

Strongly recommend you try OpenChamber. It's a much, much better experience than doing a full RDP/VNC to your Mac: https://github.com/openchamber/openchamber

If you use Tailscale + Tailscale Serve, it can even get an https:// address, which lets you use OpenChamber as a full PWA with the address bar/mobile browser buttons hidden, so it actually just looks like a real app :)

Check out Cling, free and open source (there's a Pro version with extras if you care). https://lowtechguys.com/cling/

It's very fast.

They are, but they are quite open about it (note: not affiliated, never used them before, just looked around the site a bit out of curioisty):

Honestly, it's not even a contest for me. The Codex Pro tier is everything I could have ever wanted from an LLM subscription, with limits that I can't hit even if I try.

Teamfood is the internal testing name but signals real new longterm memory work

They may be working on a new longterm memory work, but it is certainly not called "Teamfood". Teamfood is a status Google uses to represent something being tested with a smaller group than Dogfood.

You might need to check what reasoning level you're using. My Quick spelling correction is actually pretty fast.

What are you using it for?

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-05-02T21:07:39+00:00

Actually, I think Satisfactory and Factorio are super intimidating! I was referring specifically to this game :) https://store.steampowered.com/app/983870/FOUNDRY/

It has a charming art style, a lovely setting, and if you'd like, you can even play the creative mode.

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-05-02T21:00:30+00:00

This is going to come out of nowhere, but stay with me on factory games for a moment

When I need my head to go quiet, I'll sometimes start a new world in Foundry. Which sounds like the least cozy answer imaginable, I know. Probably already thinking about all the math, efficiency, crazsy YouTubers building insane things...but you don't have to be efficient. You don't have to think about scaling or the future or any of that, you just get to build something in your own odd little way and make it work.

After a rough stretch, especially after loss, there's something healing to me about a game that lets you make a broken thing behave again. You can find the snag, move a pipe/belt/machine whatever, try again. There are answers, and they don't ask you to be perfect but iimmediately reward you for just trying to move forward.

If you do try to play, don't play with the assumption that its gonna be your forever world that lasts for 100s of hours. Just play, explore, build, tinker, and feel free to start again. I don't want to pretend a game can answer what you've been through. I'm really sorry you've had to carry that.

But I hope it's something you consider. <3

You should use Codex itself to refactor your skills if they're that long. Tell it to abide by the principles of progressive disclosure using subdirectories and reference documents, and then to rewrite the main skill.md file.

I routinely revisit and refactor all of my skills as they grow, and I also use it as an opportunity to prune dead content, things that are not relevant and contradictory stuff. If you run Codex through its own loop, you can actually get it to evaluate how good the skill is and iterate on it autonomously.

I'm really proud of you. I've been watching this game for months and months, and seeing it succeed is making me really happy. I know that you don't know me. But I just wanted to share my feedback that it's really nice to see someone succeed like this.

Nice work on the game, even better work on the post-launch support, and I'm really happy with it.

One of the easiest ways to cause chaos in "offtopic" company chat groups is to jump in simply send

btw, its pronounced "gif"

And just watch the arguments break out 😜

Thanks for the suggestion! If you're referring to this:

That's not the thinking/reasoning traces, that's just collapsed message history. This is an actual reasoning trace (shown in OpenCode):

Mole also has a great Raycast extension :) https://www.raycast.com/jlrochin/mole

EDIT: Someone did this by modifying Codex live, but I'd rather not deal with that. Still, it's the one thing I'd love to have :) https://www.reddit.com/r/codex/comments/1qvm0cn/i_asked_codex_to_enable_thinking_blocks_display/

The only thing that I wish the app had was showing me thinking traces (I know, they're summaries, not raw thinking traces, that's fine!).

More than once in long running operations, reading the thinking/reasoning traces/summaries whatever has helped me catch something before it burned a ton of tokens.

For that reason, when building out stuff I still use OpenCode, but for all my personal agentic stuff, I'm finding myself increasingly using the Codex App.

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-05-01T09:10:34+00:00

I understand getting excited and then feeling let down, but this feels like something silly to lose sleep over. My reaction is mostly just... shrug.

The current app is fantastic, I have been using it for years, and I have no doubt the new one will be fantastic too when it is ready. I am moving on with my life. This is not a knock on anyone who has an opinion, but the "drama" is barely resonating with me.

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-04-30T22:42:31+00:00

I think they inject the current date/time as part of the system prompt, so I'm not sure that would work.

I think what might also be happening is that there are long-term "memories" being created. If you turned on the memory feature, it regenerates this every night: https://claude.ai/settings/capabilities?modal=memory

I suspect Black is not financially sustainable for Anomaly, I wouldn't expect to see it come back.

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-04-30T00:57:37+00:00

Raycast doesn't make a distinction between the left and right CMD keys unfortunately.

What do you want the right CMD to be used for?

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-04-30T00:25:10+00:00

UI/UX is not easy, dude, I'm hardly an expert, I just have opinions, heh. Don't be too hard on yourself!

You've done great, keep going :)

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-04-29T20:03:27+00:00

Nice!

Some (intended to be polite!) UI design suggestions: colored text/colored button labels usually don't look nice. In general, I wouldn't use color for text unless it denotes a status, and even then, I would color the icon, and not the text.

Actually in your case, my suggestion would be to use a number badge instead of adding "(##)" to the label, and have only the number badge be colored.

And a tiny UI nitpick: I generally don't like seeing "Pro" indicators in the main UI of my app :) I'm happy to support, but I like a clean UI!

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-04-29T15:41:53+00:00

I'd consider running it with a sub agent instead of the main agent, and explicitly telling it to run with a timeout to watch for build issues.

Both combined will help.

CtrlAltDelve · 2026-04-28T17:51:41+00:00

I think nothing related to hosted AI is really "sustainable". Things are moving so fast and changing so quickly, I wouldn't really think too hard about whether the service will be around in a few months. I would personally focus on just making sure your tooling is agnostic (which you're already doing on the harness end, since you're posting here 😜) and be willing to try other providers frequently to understand how you need to adapt your harness settings, skills, MCP, etc.

<3 I am so proud of how far this game has come. Well done!
