I’m never upset when that Anthropic monthly bill comes out.

It’s like having that VA Tim Ferris recommended in 4 hour work week but much cheaper.

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

I have 9 credits on Audible

What should I pick up?

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

Ran through my Anthropic API credits pretty quickly and Robro was unable to continue.

Looked into it and found a bug that ate a bunch of tokens and fixed that.

Also went ahead and switched to Haiku for the default, added other models and a local model with switch.

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

Another little tweak.

Search!

Still running off .md files in the brain but it’s fast and accurate enough for now.

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

A small but helpful win.

Added image upload feature to Robro chat.

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

Put together a small init check in on initial launch

Small feature but feels good to see everything is ready to rock when I start

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

Giving Robro self-healing capabilities o.O

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

It’s alive!

Latest updates:
- writes full transcript to brain
- writes summary to brain
- writes “notes, bugs, wishlist” in projects
- projects can read git repos

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

Got ourselves a nice little initialize screen and lading chat.

Ton on backend work for saving sessions transcriptions and summaries as well.

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

Struggling to get past iOS audio ducking when screen recording but you’ll get the idea.

Robro lives!

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

A ton of backend architecture first has informed a good bit of the front end design instead of vice versa.

This is just an example of the interface I’m working through.

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

@etinosirrr I've still not messed with N8n and it may be more than I need. Elevenlabs seems to be the move for voice.

I've never heard of Infranodus, just looked it up can you tell me how you're using it?

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

Doubtful anyone sees this since I have not posted in a while but…

What is the solution so I can do voice conversational chat with Claude or GPT and it have access to literally any tool as the brain.

Notion
GitHub
Etc

Notion works with text chat but none with voice

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

I’ve opted in to just building my own conversational chat bot.

The existing tools purposefully do not allow conversational chat to access writing tools (yet).

Will start with
- Claude
- GitHub as the brain
- a STT and TTS combo

Include text chat like normal

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

@reggaj I will keep you posted. Got flooded with a bunch of ideas in my feed after posting so shouts out the algorithm

May just need to build a little something myself

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

@joedevon @Emjaaaay20 Does it do this one thing?

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

@RSugestie Hermes I’ve not heard of will check

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

@Emjaaaay20 I’ve not tried mostly due to huge concerns of incorrect setup possibly ruining my life and generally thinking this is a normal ask from the existing apps. But I might

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

@WebsiteSquadron I love this!

[Bret Phillips @bretwp]

What a deal!
