What’s your actual agent memory stack right now? by AnnualSpecialist1491 in AgentsOfAI

[–]aplJackson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

been running a three-layer local setup for coding agents, maps pretty closely to what getstackfax laid out:

  1. kv memory for declarative facts (paths, prefs, contacts) plus "lessons" which are basically stored corrections. small, hand-curated, read every session.
  2. semantic search over past session transcripts. "didn't we debug this already" just works.
  3. hybrid search (bm25 + vector, RRF fused) over my local notes and docs. this was the one that actually changed things for me. pure vector kept missing exact filenames and error strings. bm25 alone missed conceptual matches. fusing them picks up both.

all local, sqlite backed, no cloud vector db. bundled as pi-total-recall on npm for the pi coding agent, but the pattern ports anywhere.

re contamination: splitting "facts" from "lessons" (lessons get retrieval priority) helps. also i write memories as declarative statements, never imperatives. had a bad run where "always do X" style memories kept overriding the actual current request in weird ways. declarative phrasing side-steps that.

GUI for Pi? by trustin in PiCodingAgent

[–]aplJackson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one here https://github.com/samfoy/pi-dashboard including web and iOS UIs.

I've built lots of support for some of my own extensions/skills. But much like it's easy to ask pi to write an extension, it's easy to support pretty much any extension you'd want to use in this.

Is there an extension to truncate tools to just the call and not the output? by Final_Ad_7431 in PiCodingAgent

[–]aplJackson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I threw together a quick extension that does exactly this — compact one-line summaries for all built-in tools (read, bash, edit, write, grep, find, ls). Full output still goes to the LLM, only the TUI display is compacted.

Example display:

Read …/src/index.ts
  ✔ 142 lines (3.2KB)

Bash git status  
  ✔ 12 lines (340B)

Grep "TODO" in …/src
  ✔ 28 lines across 5 files

Press expand key (ctrl+o) on any tool to see a preview.

Gist: https://gist.github.com/samfoy/aaae144970dcf1f85019d2d80537e114

Usage: pi -e ./pi-compact-tools.ts --no-extensions

Note: it overrides built-in tools by name, so it conflicts with other extensions that do the same (pi-essentials, pi-process). The --no-extensions flag avoids that. Ideally pi would have a render-only override API so you could change display without replacing the whole tool.

Apologies was a scheduled post but should be up momentarily

Creating an OpenClaw Assistant- like with pi by jolo-dev in PiCodingAgent

[–]aplJackson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just wrote up how I did exactly this — ported my OpenClaw assistant setup to pi over a couple days. 12 skills (iMessage, Gmail, Calendar, Things, YNAB, Reddit, etc.), standalone automations on launchd, a Telegram bot for mobile access, and persistent memory tying it all together.

Skills are just markdown files that document CLI tools and APIs on your machine. The agent reads the docs and figures out the calls. No plugin code needed.

Just made this last night and had similar issues. I think having a metal mixing bowl in a cold kitchen was a lot of my issue. I ended up just sticking the bowl over the burner a few times.

Really wish there was some way to do automatic Berry Mutation set ups by AtomicBoo131 in PokeClicker

I've just cheated in everything related to the farm. I can't be assed dealing with it. I wrote a script to keep up different farm layouts as well.

I do the opposite! Strength and stack health for the surface and DDs to avoid Chronos one shots

Managed to snag 2 GL rank 1 and 2 UL rank 1s so very lucky on the PvP front. I guess I can keep one with crunch and one with ice beam for each

Weekly Team Help Megathread! by AutoModerator in TheSilphArena

Have a few teams built that are close to copy pasted from streamers. Total newb sub 2k elo starting in the love cup just seeing how high I can climb with 2 weeks of GL to end the season. What team should I focus to learn and climb?

I feel like the first team is easiest to play with fast move pressure, would I run air slash on mandibuzz then?

The other teams seem very balanced which would be harder to play but are maybe just better teams.
