I tested it, and the results aren’t promising. After just 2–3 sessions (around 5 hours each), I already hit 50% of the monthly limit and 97% of the weekly limit. At this pace, it feels practically unusable.
@opencode and @CommandCodeAI have higher limits for less.

We’ve been impressed with GLM-5.2 and so are introducing a $9.99/month subscription to give you 2-5x discounted access to it and other open weight models like DeepSeek, Kimi, MiniMax, Mimo, Qwen.

Use it on Cline CLI & IDE with $1.99 special promo if sign up via: npm i -g cline

GLM 5.2 is on the same level as Fable 5, which is a strange take
My GLM 5.2 is working in a weird way.

Scopeful ranks 6th for the "ComfyUI pricing" query on Bing, but it is not indexed on Google.

I mistakenly submitted a sitemap with 500 pages. I have already corrected this issue, but the damage has been done)

[Keith Vaughan @techopsasia]

me and laksh got together a month ago and discussed: what are people actually asking for in an ai event?

so we went around, asked the builders and founders we already knew what they actually wanted.

people want to come and build. they want talks that actually help them improve their workflow, seeing how someone really works, not the polished version.

and they want to share, co-working, but with a big dose of showing each other what you've got. so we built frontier club.

this weekend was AI Meetup #1 in Da Nang, Vietnam 🇻🇳 thank you to everyone who came to build, share, and learn!

speakers came at this from every angle:

ai workflows, alternatives to coding, max cost-to-productivity with Fable (RIP), and even building houses out of mac minis:

Rob Hallam @robj3d3 - SuperX .so
Romie Carillo @romiecarillo
Alvaro Trigo @IMAC2 - FullPage .js
Igor Gridel @igorGridel - Scopeful .org

sponsored by Yobeve Protein Bars, Cipher Projects, and Your Event Kit

i'm @techopsasia, laksh is @techedlaksh - we're the founders of frontier club, and based on how this went, this is just the start.

thanks to our volunteer @MekongWhisper and new friends @calvinluvsrice @tomasoctavio_ @AleeeM1 @VinhVC280000000 @justtomey @enjojoyy @davidryan59 @dayonefoundry @tmkm44 @wilsonsfh_ @0xProductGal @agvbtc @bryanmillion_ @calchulus @happylolonly @sceat_ @suaveftr @trahoangdev @artrimbaud8 @Exlo7 @nomadngx @SonNguyen @trongkhoidev1

The workflow behind all three is the same. Dump tasks into my Obsidian vault where Claude processes them with full context,
Then pass the task list to 6 Opencode sessions running in parallel.

The vault has 100+ book summaries, a glossary, client details, my goals, and rules

@samthekorean https://t.co/jrZqBFJOrz The website is live, I’ve received initial feedback, and I’m currently improving the design and functionality. btw, what you’re doing is really needed, I’ve seen solo-founders here struggle to find structured programs, so Zerobase could fill a huge gap

[Igor Gridel @IgorGridel]

Every new coding agent ships with native voice input now.

There are tools like Superwhisper or free local setups like Handy

Yet, my absolute favorite way is iPhone app from 2008

I just open iPhone Voice Memos, record, and copy the transcript to Claude.

@dedene When they try to add SynthID to the models, but can’t fix the simple AI noise

Most projects don't die in the build. They die in the loop after, when you're refining app, debugging edge cases, shipping something that won't fall over in production. The red wire part is easy.

Some cool stuff, as I expected when I saw yesterday that Magnific is stopping the Magnific API for regular users.

The API is now only for business and enterprise users, while regular users get MCP.
Interesting to test if unlimited models can be used via MCP

[Magnific @magnific]

Most AI agents are built to replace creatives, we built ours to stay by your side

For the first time, what Agents learn is shared across your team.
You direct, watch the process in real time, and edit it live

Agents + MCP + Flows, just launched at Upscale Conf SF

@EvoLinkAi @alexxloops Hah, will add you guys to the Scopeful soon👀
