The best Mcp server I have as Claude Connector is Emacs running on my Homeserver. It has one tool - eval-elisp. Using it Claude can do almost anything. My top 1 pinned chat is “Run agent-start-claude-code using HotterEmacs in dir …” - after that I have a ready to use remote-controlled session running on my homeserver.

replied to:

This sounds like a really interesting idea. What would you say are its advantages over having the agent use the shell, write shell scripts, etc? Just your personal preference for elisp or something else?

replied to:

To load a skill I literally type - “load (◊doc 'slack) and browse channel X for today”. The idea is my text stays English but repeating concepts are real reusable elisp functions that stay fully deterministic. (◊doc 'agent) and Claude knows how to talk to open code and pi agents.

- Is there a way to get an atom version of the “for-you” feed? I’m guessing this is complicated by needing to be authenticated.

replied to:

Exactly, it makes it way more complicated that's why it's not there yet. Not against the idea though.

I feel icky about code generation (as in writing software to generate code).

replied to:

Deterministic code generation is fine by me. Quite happy to use templating systems for example. Problems occur when randomness is introduced. If you can avoid that it should be less "icky".

I'm curious how do people start writing longer novels.. what determines the length of it? Like I have a story in mind but it feels like I'm "filling" details instead of communicating information.

replied to:

I have a novelist friend, she usually starts with the characters and the ending and as you wrote, "filling" the details backward/forward

My 3yr old woke up at 5am this morning crying - not terribly uncommon - and when I went in there to check on her she just said "daddy's here" without looking at me and went back to sleep

My 3yo woke up at midnight fully believing that I was about to walk out the door and go to work.

An interesting thought: historically, a major consideration for companies choosing what to use is how many engineers use it (because that will make hiring much easier/harder). Going forward, this becomes "how big of a corpus of this code is out there", because it impacts how proficient are likely to be at using it.

is pretty fun. Some very nice improvements in 0.9 today.

So, I've been using this harness for a week and a half now, and what's interesting to me is that it brings a lot of things that I'd already built for myself in Pi. I built a little email system for agents to communicate, a memory system to do this "continual harness" thing of self-improvement. I know I'll move on to another harness in the future, so I'm trying to treat this like I do laptops now, and think about portability in the things I build or customize.
