hey, I made this for your agent: agent-reference.dev/ It's a CLI/skill that your agent uses to keep copies of code it references, locally. OSS deps, private repos, or other folders

Has anyone else spent their adult life telling non-tech friends to blame THE SOFTWARE not THEMSELVES? “I must have clicked too fast” No, it’s not your fault, they built it poorly.

My Time Machine backups stopped working, so I assumed my Samsung T7 was dead and bought a $200 replacement. On a lark, I told Claude the problem. It asked me to swap ports, swap cables, plug it into my Windows PC so it could run Samsung's tools. Formatted and fixed the issue.

Replying to @rohit3a
Folks. Why do you think we picked 300k for context length for Codex. We ran the numbers and it’s better. We can run it at 1M too but it would just cost more of the usage. Good defaults are important.
