Why do you want to preserve that artifact?
If you don't have a record of questions asked/answered and rationale for decisions taken, I've noticed it's easy for subsequent feature plans to clash. Maintaining a line of consistency across each feature plan is a good thing.
I think thats what docs/comments are for, ask your agent to add/maintain them

#553The product isn't the software, it's your data. The VC's didn't give Dohmke $60m to build a new frontend for Git/ GitHub... They're going to capture your conversations and code with AI (The outcomes) and use that to train better models which they'll rent back at you.

I will never use this platform. i didn't even click into it. pathetically, i did click to view comments But I think commenting on someone's bio is the kinda harshness you only do in the moment. the kinda thing I'd approach differently in hindsight (one that isn't an attempt to be cruel)
Harsher than the OP who is ridiculing everybody who criticizes the product being presented here in this thread?

#555> Checkpoints are a new primitive that automatically captures agent context as first-class, versioned data in Git. When you commit code generated by an agent, Checkpoints capture the full session alongside the commit: the transcript, prompts, files touched, token usage, tool calls and more. This thread is extremely negative - if you can't see the value in this, I don't know what to tell you.
I'm trying it out now. If it works, I think it'd be great for my agentic workflows where I need to figure out why something was done a specific way. I have a lot of concurrent agents working on things at the same time, so I'm not always sure why a piece of code is the way it is months later.
I've used it for a couple of hours. A few observations:
- It's nice to see conversation context alongside the change itself. - I wasn't able to see Claude Code utilise past commit context in understanding code. - It's a tad unclear (and possible unreliable) in what is called 'checkpointing'. - It mucked up my commit messages by replacing the first line with a sort of AI request title or similar.
Sadly, because of the last point (we use semantic release and git-cz) I've had to uninstall it.

amongst all the threads, it appears they are quite outnumbered lol

It’s good to know that a few decades later the same generic Dropbox-weekend take can be made.
99% of projects the take applies to are massive flops. The Dropbox weekend take is almost always correct.
Sorry for by ignorance, but what's the Dropbox Weekend

Yes, much harsher

Just an opinion and not ridiculing or attacking someone specifically

#559I made something very similar, in my spare time, last week. I didn't need $60m for it.

What's amusing is that I specifically made a comedy license for it, because I thought trying to protect the IP of such a thing is madness in the AI-native era. Then within days I find out it's a massively funded startup!

I've got Claude Code adding Gemini and OpenCode support to my tool currently.

CEO's are living proof that a broken clock can be wrong the whole day (and still get paid).
I wonder since agents are soo successful, when are CEOs get replaced by AI? Or it does not work that way?
You would need multi trillion parameter models to even come close to capturing the CEO grindset.
