this is really good. it aligns closely with what I've been writing on the same subject (but is way better :) )

nice share. thanks.

OH! I commented before I realized it was a product pitch ... literal seconds before she introduced ACE.

If I'm honest, the idea of a collaborative agentic coding interface is pretty novel and interesting. Still impressed with the article just the nature of my appreciation has changed.

It is just a product pitch with beta access (I don't have access to it) But also agree that the direction is good. I think once everyone using the 12 terminal agent setup emerges from the void, teamwork processes will need to have a rethink. So it's interesting to follow this and other projects. What is yours?

yeah - I thought the first half of the article (up until "introducing ace") was actually really great thoguh.
