FYI the GitHub URL is 404ing I’ve been integrating benchmarks into OrcaBot either locally on the app or online at orcabot.com. Mostly as a way of giving an easy way to verify my ow…

Thats right and to go even further I'm judging them on a metric they didn't necessarily target. A client I work with uses skills such as these to apply their own processes on the a…

Yep that was interesting but imho not completely unexpected. My original hypothesis was that these agent skills are castles built on sand and that the models would quickly adapt an…

SCB is definitely an underrated benchmark. For me the unique selling point is that it more closely mirrors software development by not stopping after a single task. The agent has t…

I think I'm more on your side on that rather than letting agents go wild like Steve Yegge/Pete Steinberger do. In fact OrcaBot quickly adapted into a knee jerk reaction to OpenClaw…

This looks really interesting and a unique take on the AI agent orchestration. I think we need a bunch of experiments in this area as it's clear we are entering a new paradigm and …

I believe it's the way the HN algorithm works. In order to give new and obscure posts a shot, it will add them to peoples feeds in their front page and see how they measure. Otherw…

You could have the actual output of the agent turned into TTS using the model of your choice with TalkiTo… or listen to whatever weird sounds this makes. Seems like this is copying…
