It's so annoying how Windows makes it so hard to have a single executable that works well in both GUI and console modes

Totally legitimate, there's a pumpkin on the cookie that doesn't even look sure if it's smiling or crying 😂

I added rubber duck reviews to Claude Code using Copilot CLI 👀 I can now review changes using any of the supported models from GitHub Copilot, straight from Claude Code!

Even though I much prefer the GitHub Copilot app, it's very hard to justify running all of my workflows in it when you can get that much token usage for $200 in Claude Code
A $200 Claude Code sub gets you ~$9,000 of Opus usage per month. I have managed to run 3 Claude accounts down to 0% since Opus 5.5 dropped. When analyzing their usage, costs were $2,086, $2,442, and $2,182. Average is $2,200/week, so ~$9,000/month

Shipping native cross platform tools kinda sucks for C#/.NET. I love this ecosystem but needing the full .NET runtime is friction for the end user. And NativeAOT is friction for the creator. Rust has my attention ESPECIALLY in the agentic era.

I'm thinking of creating custom subagents in Claude Code that wrap Copilot CLI, enabling usage of non-Anthropic models for reviewing changes. The holy grail would be /rubber-duck that almost looks and feels the same as in GitHub Copilot app, using Copilot CLI under the hood

I hate to admit, but I find Claude Code's CI integration much simpler to use and reliable than the GitHub Copilot app agent merge feature. It makes CI and PR state visible where you prompt while remaining compact. With GitHub Copilot, it just says it "checked" instead

Claude Code shows the current *state*, while Agent Merge in GitHub Copilot shows what you *allow* the agent to do, and you need to click on the PR link to see more. Claude Code uses flashing bubbles when CI is in progress, and shows current state based on what you enabled

Argh. Claude Code for Windows has exactly the same problem I had gotten fixed in the GitHub Copilot app: making the mistake of loading only the system-level PATH while forgetting the user-level PATH. None of the tools installed in user context, especially MSIX packages, work 👇

What are the best Rust SDKs for local AI that can use models distributed from Huggingface, works on Windows and Linux, and would be suitable to extract searchable data from a video file? It needs to run OCR models locally at a bare minimum

1/ Today we're announcing the stable Cua Driver release for Omarchy - a new foundation for computer use, built into the OS from the ground up. Over the last month, we worked directly with @dhh, @SpencerGBull and @vaxryy to bring a native synthetic cursor to Omarchy's Hyprland compositor, enabling true multi-cursor computer use at the OS level. Cua Driver is open source and available at github.com/trycua/cua

Does anyone know if it's possible in Claude Code to see queued "chips" or "suggested tasks" after the pop up dialog is dismissed? It seems shortsighted to have such a feature require that you take action *now* for follow-up tasks that would normally be done later

What are the best agent skills package manager CLIs today? skills.sh is installed through npx, which makes it harder to deploy enterprise-wide. "gh skills" is interesting, but too GitHub-oriented, and I'm hitting performance issues for large agent skills.

I have a very large agent skill, and "gh skill install awakecoding/openspecs windows-protocols" takes forever, and even hits GitHub API rate limits. Is there a better way to distribute agent skills for faster downloads and stability with the GitHub CLI?
