I'm taking month 2 of my "This Ultra plan is included…" Heavy sub with a Pro Plus mindset. Also, I just noticed that "Ultra" no longer appears under my name in Cursor.
Kinda interesting how I fell into working on my SaSS app entirely with @bot on my iPad in the last hour.
#PSA For everyone that has Cursor Ultra newly-included with their SuperGrok Heavy sub: treat it like a version of Pro+. You're one good pstack `swarm` away from wiping out your entire "Other Models" pool.

pstack 0.15.0 is here! this release contains mainly token usage improvements (between 3 to 11% savings depending on how many skills are loaded by pstack in your session), removing some stray semicolons and emdashes so pstack skills aren't a bad influence, and lots of mannered prose removals (thanks Anthropic for the guide!), along with 2 new principles:
• attack the premise: inspired by @VictorTaelin's recent experience with agents never questioning the premise
• test behavior, not implementation: helps reduce the number of useless tests agents write
if you use /poteto-mode these principles should just be loaded automatically when needed, but you can always invoke on demand as well by autocompleting /principle-...

Very saddened by the news that Cassandra Wilson has passed away. One of the most distinctive voices in modern jazz, Cassandra wove an alluring tapestry of jazz, blues, folk & R&B into a singular sound that opened up new avenues of expression for vocal jazz bluenote.lnk.to/CassandraWil…

I was just informed by @kelvynbell about the untimely passing, this morning, of @reallycassandra . Both of our hearts are broken. We will not be the only ones. The Jazz & Pop worlds have lost a Voice Of Her Generation. I’m gutted. No other details at this time

Compound Engineering got ~70% smaller.
(Or at least the part your agent has to load up front did)
Over the last month, we rewrote nearly every skill in the plugin to use less context.
Instead of loading the full instruction set up front, skills now load the essentials first and pull in detailed procedures only when they’re needed. That means less wasted context, less risk of truncation, and more consistent behavior across harnesses.
Most skills’ main SKILL.md files ended up about 70% smaller.
There wasn’t one clever compression trick. It took a long process of rewriting, testing, running evals, finding regressions, and doing it again (and again).
v3.23 turned into one of the largest releases we’ve shipped since I started working on the plugin.
If you already have it installed through your harness, you can wait for the auto-update or force an update now.
If you’ve never installed it, now’s a good time:

My small @bot team helped me track down all of the Azure default URLs after a switch from a Bitnami VM to an App Service plan I had to set up yesterday. This really would have taken me hours on my own.
I sync'd a project from Github into @cursor_ai Origin, then installed `origin` CLI, then asked Cursor to make sure I had it all setup correctly. After that, I detached from GH. Note: create a new cloud agent that points to the new repository.

excited to share more about my journey building pstack, shipping 2,000 PRs a month, and the client framework powering @bot tomorrow! see you there

Well, alright then… `/poteto-mode` set up the Azure resource group exactly way I needed just from saying "how it needs to be" in the prompt. That was, like, the vaguest prompt I've ever typed.
