The velocity of how this space gets reskinned is wild.
Clearly we do not yet feel satisfied with the way we consume and work with agents at scale.
It looks like perhaps rather than skinning we need a more novel UX or workflow to emerge.
I can't help but think all of this is living on borrowed time and eventually it will look more like talking to your "assistant" that fields everything for you and maybe some new async interruption model that fits humans better.
Biggest bottleneck in my opinion still is how to solve for information density.
You got downvoted but your joke made me think of the show The Dark Matter and how they had the concept of a hallway with infinite doors to represent the multiverse to the human brain that cannot comprehend the state of superposition.
I sort of get what you're going for maybe? In a sense these things are gonna evolve at a rate where we are not going to be able to operate at their plane and we will need a sort of UX translation
Because the compiler does a deterministic transform on the input. And the input is less ambiguous than natural language and following more strict rules.
This looks basically the same as what Paseo does, and Paseo is open source, works on lots of different platforms, and has native apps.
I have a homelab-type setup with macOS, phone, and ARM and x64 Linux platforms, all of which I can dispatch agent work to from my laptop from, like, an airplane.
It's extremely useful, scales up the number of experiments I can run, and decouples me from my dev laptop. But it's also just table stakes at this point.
A custom Mac application seems limiting compared to a web app. I use a web browser to connect from my laptop, tablet, and phone to use Linux VMs on exe.dev.
But it might be nice to have a nice way to run VMs on my Mac mini, too.
Claude 5 hitting developers and product managers like 4o hit people who thought ChatGPT was their boyfriend or they were inventing a new branch of science.

Even with a single instance of Claude Code, running I am producing so much code that it is impossible to even self-review.
Can we please focus on that?

If it works as desired then ship it; if it doesn't then iterate until it does.
Why ask obvious things?

Your Mac will now work while the lid is closed.

"One line. A worktree, a box, an agent." Fuck does that mean?
Have some pride and actually write the text yourself. Tell my why it's interesting. What problems are you trying to solve?
If you can't be bothered to write it, why should I be bothered to read it.
What is a box? Sorry is that a remote VM? A local VM that stays awake when the laptop screen is closed?
