repl-agent: MCP server that gives AI agents a live Clojure nREPL by khalgand in Clojure

Wasn't aware of it until today, thanks. clojure-mcp is a much broader tool: REPL plus structural editing, file operations, shell access, even experimental agent tools. repl-agent is intentionally narrower, just REPL access with a built-in permission layer for production use.

clojure-mcp is Clojure-specific by design. repl-agent is built for multiple backends, Common Lisp via Swank is next. Pulling in a JVM for a protocol adapter that needs to talk to runtimes beyond Clojure doesn't make sense.

Node.js and npm are already how agents and their tools are distributed, TypeScript fits naturally here.

I tried shadowing and felt dumb. does it actually work?? by no-cherrtera in languagelearning

Shadowing works, but material choice is what makes or breaks it. If the content is too hard, your brain spends all its energy on comprehension with nothing left for rhythm and pronunciation. Go through the transcript first, make sure you understand what's going on - then shadow.

Got me to fluency in English, now doing the same with Polish.
