If anyone's looking for me, I'm over at https://t.co/edYphKd1ZF building @_web3connect these days 👌

@petergyang I use it for complex Product Requirements Document management

[Shannon Murdoch @sydneyshan]

One of the cool things about vibe coding is making throw-away tools in minutes - like this data schema visualiser to help understand the complex relationships between project data prior to committing to the model.
This one leverages @threejs and 3D Force Graph ( https://t.co/PCJIN27k09 )

Pickleball inter-town match scheduler solution complete.
All no-code 👏
Connected a Google Sheets MCP tool to Claude Desktop and now it’s adding well-considered player combinations on demand.

@AnthropicAI & @windsurf_ai for the MCP setup automation

[Shannon Murdoch @sydneyshan]

Is anyone else finding MCP tool use within @windsurf_ai to be neutered compared to @AnthropicAI 's Claude Desktop + MCP?
I presume this is deliberate by Windsurf to avoid credit use as it's paid out of their plan rather than your own LLM subscription credits?
Windsurf just returns 'Cascade error' for every second tool use response while Claude Desktop just gets to work without errors with the same prompt despite identical config.

The best LLM prompt:
"continue"
iykyk 😉

I've been experimenting with augmenting LLM's like Claude / ChatGPT with tools (via MCP) - essentially giving it super-powers to break out of its sandbox and perform actions such as searching the web, complex multi-step planning and execution, writing & executing code etc.

[Shannon Murdoch @sydneyshan]

After working with AI-enhanced IDEs (interactive development environments) for a while I've discovered how crucial requirements docs are for AI to perform.

LLMs have limited context windows, so static documentation of your big-picture requirements is essential.

You wouldn't have a builder build a house without a plan, and that's what these docs give the builder (AI).

The great thing is you can brain dump into your favourite LLM (like @AnthropicAI 's https://t.co/6YkSc7rDmk / ChatGPT / etc) and then ask it to convert your brain dump into docs for you.

You then pop these docs into your IDE and ask the AI to read the docs & execute the plan.

Additional hacks include asking AI to update the implementation plan document (ticking items off as it executes), maintaining a change log (which it can then reference to solve bugs), and adding MCP tools like BrowserTools to create a feedback loop between your coding environment and your web browser for the detection of bugs.

I vibe-coded this fun little game back in October 2025 https://t.co/rvR4b8NfiB - was a great little learning experiment working with @cursor_ai and later @windsurf_ai leveraging @threejs.

[Shannon Murdoch @sydneyshan]

Dusting off this account as been a while...!

@sergiogonai Great idea!

@andybudd I’d recommend they (or their organisation) to join Reforge https://t.co/y4k4V7CzYe

@MalcolmNance @AndrewRoseSC It’s polarising statements like this that have brought the world to this divided mess it’s in. Take a step back and get some perspective.

[Shannon Murdoch @sydneyshan]

@AndrewRoseSC Good on you for standing up for your beliefs, applying critical thought, and maintaining your autonomy. The world needs more people like you. Don’t listen to these self-righteous numpties that simply went along with what their overlords told them to do.

[Professor Karol Sikora @ProfKarolSikora]

Words can’t describe how outraged I am by the policy of compulsory vaccinations.

It’s not how public health should be conducted. Consent is essential.

I disagree with vaccine passports, but this is an entirely new level of unacceptable.

[Melinda Richards 🇦🇺🇺🇸 @goodfoodgal]

So has @ScottMorrisonMP just given Australians some light at a very long dark tunnel by not supporting mandatory vaccinations?

Can all those sacked employees get reinstated now?

Will all the discrimination end?

Can the borders be fully opened now?

[Shannon Murdoch @sydneyshan]

@VictorianCHO You will never inject my children.
