    Nothing prunes it, atm. Currently I'm not sure if it's valuable that it does? 97KB is ~25k tokens. `grepathy context ` filters by the decision's Touches: list - a typical file pull…

    - the distiller reads your messages, it just doesn't quote them. Decisions you directed get captured and labeled `directed`. - eval is public here: https://github.com/evansjp/grepa…

    thank you so much! started with a Claude Code adapter, but you think Codex would be a good next one?

    CTO responded well to it - frankly because we're all using some coding agent and it's just the natural process of code review for them to sniff things out. No mention of it in any …

    Show HN: Grepathy – Claude made a decision nobody approved

    hey HN - Claude pre-created users in Clerk with null emails/names as "guest users" on a contract job. Wasn't in any plan. The CTO asked why, and I didn't know! I didn't make that d…

    Haha alright, I can turn off flirting by default for the next update. And how late in the afternoon did it suggest for a lunch?

    Thank you! I'd be flattered for sure. I think there's a lot of uncaptured value in AI to API requests, in general. Imagine an app that schedules "Flight at LAX at 2pm", but also of…
