ast-grep scan will continue until morale (and codeslop) improves

just released a small update to jj-hunk - programmatic hunk selector for your jj-using agent New: -r flag. Split any revision, not just your working copy. support for YAML specs stable hunk IDs you can install it with: cargo install jj-hunk npx skills add laulauland/jj-hunk

fine, here's another one: shell completions for running ! comands inside prompts. Hooks into your shell completions directly (unless you're on zsh, which idk why you'd be there) npmjs.com/pi-shell-com...

pi (a very good and very shitty coding agent from @mariozechner.at) has a very powerful extension system that I already raved about. Now that it supports npm/git-based installs I published a couple of mine that I've been using daily

<niche-CI-content-alert> wild that the most common standardized format for reporting test results is a *loose* standard JUnit XML really hoping this changes in 2026 now that we're mostly focused on reviewing/reporting on code </niche-CI-content-alert>

getting to the point where I'm really liking the experience of Tatami - a GUI I'm building for jj - uses jjui/vim-style keybindings for navigation - has overview and detail screens - fast! Uses @tanstack.com DB to interface via @tauri.app IPC - uses diffs.com of course

needed a tool to make it easier for agents to reorganize commits and hunks into logical narratives that make it easier to review code jj split is great but requires interactive TUI that's still a tricky territory for Claude so here's jj-hunk - programmatic hunk selection for jj

I wrote up how my workflows with agents and coding evolved over 2025 gearing up for the first week of work already but if you're still in the mood to read blog posts - here you go: laulau.land/working-with...

it's atuin wrapped time! story of my 2025 shell is that I adopted jj halfway through the year (you can see lg - lazygit - decline) and mostly switched projects from pnpm (shorthand: pn) to bun

brb adding a claude code hook that exits with error 2 the moment it outputs "comprehensive"

ok so raw thoughts while exploring OpenAI's new Apps SDK the difficult thing right now is with the existing tooling you have to run two servers: one to serve your assets, one to drive the MCP server logic

launched mcp-lite today: github.com/fiberplane/mcp it's a lighter, minimal library to create your MCP servers in TypeScript that can work on any runtimes and can work with any Standard Schema vendors

if you're publishing an npm library today - what is the standard to inform coding agents about its API (is there)? Something like AGENTS.md but that you can embed in the package.

git remote add @tangled.sh

a dear friend of mine launched an independent label for experimental music today and I helped make a fun website for it first album is very very good, go pre-order: www.glinted.info

trying to use atproto/bsky libraries in Cloudflare runtime is not having a great Sunday hacking time

today's discovery has been being able to easily locally integrate changes from 3-4 different unmerged PRs and one local branch. jj definitely makes for a *really* good review tool

ok, `jj` is very nice

use your ai browsers to buy from artists

"hey i got it working can you give my PR a quick look?

Is there a way to programmatically load some context into Claude Code using CLAUDE.md or hooks? Specifically need it to load the WezTerm's pane id where I have a dev server running so that it can independently look up its output using `wezterm cli get-text --pane-id <pane-id>`

always funny when you ask Claude for an implementation plan and it starts listing: "Week 1-2: .... Week 3-4: ..." oh sweet summer child you're gonna be doing this all today

so DSPy is cool

debuggers are so good

blog.tangled.sh/stacking @oppi.li wrote a great post on stacking (and reviewing!) pull requests using #jj-vcs on tangled!

`git rebase --onto` is great and Idk how I didn't know about it earlier so I wrote about it. laulau.land/note/git-fu/

wrote up a note on a little shell script I use to read generated Claude Code reports: laulau.land/note/markdow...

new ink and switch alert www.inkandswitch.com/ink/notes/sk...

one kind of hilarious thing of trying to combine neverthrow with Cloudflare's Workflow primitives is having to write wrappers that throw..neverthrow-returned errors as Cloudflare Workflows uses caught errors to trigger retries there's probably a better way to do this...

taking the neverthrow library for a spin and all of the .andThen() calls remind me of this scene: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqwz...

Had a whole lot of fun giving my first conference talk at @squiggleconf.com last year. The crew was very supportive and the vibes were immaculate. If you thought “maybe i should try giving a talk”, then saw a CFP, got excited, and then later thought “ehh idk” then you should think again and apply.

doing some first time (now second time) live streaming tomorrow building a Bluesky MCP on Cloudflare - we may or may not figure out auth too, come hang

some interesting historical context re: stories of "chatGPT-induced psychosis" is that when the radio and telephone were invented, there were similar reactions — some people believed they could tune their radio to the frequencies of heaven or received instructions from the dead via the telephone

if English does become the main language of software expression (supplanting formal languages like code) I'll be very interested in linguistic/dialect analysis on how that changes the language itself

I remember seeing a paper that I believe claimed LLMs being more effective at generating code that uses tools than using the tools directly but I can't find it anymore. What is the latest research/experience on this?

realllly hoping civil defense planners all over Europe are taking scrupulous notes and learnings on human behavior and effects of the power outage in Iberian peninsula. I feel like these kind of occurrences might be more common in the near future whether by force of nature or the enemy

you've heard of PDF in an LLM but have you heard of LLM in a PDF? PDFs continue to fascinate me as a concept, I still don't know if I understand them github.com/evanzhoudev/...

another shoutout to HTML featuring this beautiful poem from Adrienne Rich and its analysis www.nytimes.com/interactive/... love being able to follow the author’s train of thought and see the source text side by side

Anthropic’s latest paper on interpretability of LLMs is worth reading for the presentation alone. More HTML, less PDF in science please transformer-circuits.pub/2025/attribu...

revisiting some of my favorite film shots from last year all shot on Olympus XA - one of those magical small items

what if you could send natural language instructions and tool use as an .mdx file to an LLM

the rush of Claude-generating a python script with comment-embedded dependencies to process unstructured input data, running it with `uv run <script>` and getting a succesful output in a neat output.json file

any MCP clients out there that support the "sampling" feature? I'd be keen to prototype something with it but even Claude Desktop doesn't carry it that yet

what a great website for all of the fans of the Sutro tower: vincentwoo.com/3d/sutro_tow...
