    Show HN: Orchestrate parallel Claude Code and Codex agents on a live map

    Hi HN! I never understood why everybody is fine with (and actually try to copy it multiple times) a single chat interface for ai agents, where you have one conversation on the whol…

    What the hell? If a company gets more efficient and uses fewer people - Microsoft's immediate reaction is to figure out how to invent some kind of digital seats so they can keep ta…

    Yeah but I’m just really curious why so many people are so against improving the models. It’s not like someone is stealing the code you’ve written, its more like generally expandin…

    So I can ask an LLM to write rust code to generate CAD designs???

    Please don’t strawman me, I asked completely different question. It’s not about being grateful or something, but that many people (devs) are too concerned about their code being st…

    Why won't people like to make the models better? Aren't we all getting the benefit after all?

    good catch, yeah, I'm basically having a conversation with codex about each paper where it explains me the paper and answers my questions. I agree it's not the best way to do that,…

    Thanks for the feedback and appreciation. Maybe at some point I’ll polish it and make it open source if people find this valuable

    Isn’t what you’ve just described - the context bloat problem, the part about the web? I’m not sure I quite get the same experience as you with the “assumes steps it never took”. Do…

    Got that, thanks for the advice, I'll ask my supervisor how to address that properly

    Yeah that’s exactly my point. The AI is just taking the boring job of collecting evidence and I’m a validator. This way i see that I’m able to process papers much faster than witho…

    There is not a single paragraph that I might “steal” from ChatGPT. I’m consistently using multiple LLMs to write, polish, rephrase and all other kinds of edits I really don’t get t…

    I agree with you and that’s exactly what I’m going to do. It’s just that I may be more persuasive if I’m prepared

    Can you really reproduce it though? I thought it’s the experiments that have to be able to reproduce, not the literature review

    I’d be happy to disclose and even consider to share how I did it all I’ve even drafted the acknowledgment part with brief explanation of how I used AI tools The only part I’m conce…

    Comment #47499838

    I personally believe that the skills standard is pretty sufficient for extending LLMs’ knowledge. What we’re missing yet (and I’m working on) is a simple package manager for skills…

    I have completely different experience. Which models are you talking about? I have no trouble at all with AI documenting the steps it took. I use codex gpt5.4 and Claude code opus …

    Skills are repeatable workflows, that could be extracted as unit of work I guess

    It's more - a SKILL can contain MCP :)

    Comment #47495777

    The difference I'm noticing is in that with a proper skill you can skip the process of LLM wandering about and trying to guess how to interact with an API or else. so they basicall…

    Yeah, I've built my own skill-package manager as well btw! Then it clicked and I hyperfocused for a whole week and vibecoded a skill marketplace haha. Because the selling of a skil…

    Ask HN: Is using AI tooling for a PhD literature review dishonest?

    Definitely, the whole point of openclaw is to operate on your data. It's just.. Be prepared to lose it I guess. The one thing I'm definitely not giving access to yet - the payments…

    Comment #47482418

    Agree on the LLM part. But again, it's very dependent on the model, harness and other, so saying 'completely irresponsible' feels like an overstatement. I usually press 'allow all'…
