Early take: GPT5.6 Sol is great, but goes overboard if you have any kind of “review this and fix findings” workflow. It did a bunch of architecture improvements completely unprompted, burned $300 of tokens

Fable/opus seems much better at getting the intent of what I ask for.

I'm thrilled to release CodeAlta - one of the first efficient AI coding-agent TUIs built entirely in C#/.NET 🚀

I've been developing and using it daily for the past 3 months, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! 🤗

Retweets are highly appreciated! 🙏

CodeAlta brings you a beautiful, colorful timeline interface, multiple threads in the same workspace, a real prompt editor experience, quick file viewing/editing with syntax highlighting, in-app model provider configuration, a multi-agent-ready environment, and much more! ✨

@housecor I was in the room, my answer had less to do with AI and more to do with routine layoffs across the board

The ZIRP days are way behind us, still a good gig if you can get your foot in the door though

I really wish plan mode was the default for copilot CLI. Hardly ever do I want an agent to take actions without me reviewing it first.

@simonw Tool calling in hermes works great, running locally with mlx_vlm.server

[𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 💻 @dustinsoftware]

@_Evan_Boyle Nice, will give this a shot tomorrow

[𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 💻 @dustinsoftware]

mlx_vlm.server \
--model "mlx-community/gemma-4-26b-a4b-it-4bit" \
--kv-bits 3.5 \
--kv-quant-scheme turboquant

Local hermes agent setup, completely offline - super cool

@BobPritchett wow I had one of these, they were awesome! you could totally do that with a raspberry pi...

@jamonholmgren Cool! How do you prevent the claude cli from exiting during the work loop? Eg what keeps it rolling at 2 AM if it thinks it's all done or gets stuck?

@burkeholland @SimonHolman Pasting images in copilot-cli doesn't seem to work on macos with iterm2, does it only work with certain terminals?

@gabegreenberg I lived in Nairobi from 2001-2008, changed my life forever for sure. I never take clean water, electricity, safety, healthcare for granted anymore. We had dial-up internet at home, sometimes.

I want to go back but haven't been since 2010.

You can just build things!

@RootCert Did you render this animation to canvas, then capture with obs, for extra code golf points?

[𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 💻 @dustinsoftware]

@pierceboggan @awakecoding Does copilot cli have a different context window limitation?

[𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 💻 @dustinsoftware]

@pierceboggan Mcp json file is different between the two tools. Use the vs code format, load it in if it already exists

[𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 💻 @dustinsoftware]

@ab_kader_ @shanselman This is also my setup in combination with copilot CLI for some things. VS code + copilot + Claude as daily driver, can’t be beat..
