That BG selected looks beautifully subtle for users with high quality display panels. It is far too low contrast for the average display panel though, it may actually be imperceptible on a budget laptop for example.

Prob best to bump up the selected contrast unless you’re explicitly targeting designers with the app.

Codex quality-of-life improvement: The title of a chat is based on the first message, it goes stale quickly. I often rename it so I can identify it quicker when switching between chats.

I want a menu option to let Codex automatically rename the chat based on it's content.

@Oluwaphilemon1 You should give credit when you steal other peoples content. This was originally my video/tweet.

Ask Claude to document and describe the main flows in your app and output in a single page html + json data file.

Incredibly useful for humans and the JSON file is very useful for explaining the flow to the LLM when working on new features/bugfixes.

`grill-with-docs` skill by @mattpocockuk is intense with GPT-5.5.
At Question 34! Is there a record?

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

@destraynor @agupta That’s fair. I guess the “100/100” made me think of quantitative “No” rather than specific feedback.

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

@destraynor @agupta I don’t disagree. It’s not that the advice is wrong, it’s just not very useful. Focusing on customers will give you a more direct signal earlier.

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

@eoghan The meme is to focus on users, not “investors are dumb”. It’s useful advice because insecure first time founders (i.e.. me), put too much weight behind investor feedback when it’s better to focus on users.

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

@destraynor @agupta Aren’t you saying the same thing? Investors are a lagging/lossy proxy for user demand. If so, then prob best to disregard the lagging proxy and listen to user demand instead.

@_lopopolo It bootstraps the context without using many tokens. So using it will be faster and cheaper and protect against context bloat (likely to be more accurate).

@kevthescott I use Codex for most coding stuff and it’s great but honestly Claude is much better at these kind of UIs. So I would recommend that you use Claude for this prompt.

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

@disco_elyzard I often end prompts with “Does that make sense? Any questions?” which allows the model to grill me more on what I want and make sure we understand eachother.

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

Here’s the prompt:

Create a single page html that documents workflows between packages and components in the app. Have all the components/packages on the page and I can click on different actions like "Invite new user" or "todesktop build" or {insert other flows here} and then it will highlight the flow between the packages and annotate how things are passed between each package to complete the action. This should be driven from a JSON document which documents all the flows. Does that make sense? Any questions?

@niamh_journo She is actually a decent actress in fairness

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

@WietseBuwalda @adrianweckler Agree. You don’t even need 0% loan. The economics already work out for a market rate loan. There just needs to be financial products that securitise the panels.

@reallyoptimized @levelsio Was just continuously ringing at a low level. Tried some troubleshooting and a different transformer but no luck.

[Dave Jeffery @DaveJ]

@levelsio Apparently you can use with Dreamwall, how much storage on that thing though? Probably not very practical. Might be better off with UCG Fiber with 2TB SSD or a UniFi NVR.

If it’s just the doorbell and no cameras then maybe Dreamwall is enough.
