The amount of little tools I'm creating for myself is incredible, 4.6 seems like it can properly one/two shot it now without my attention.
Did you open source that one? I was thinking of this exact same thing but wanted to think a little about how to share deps, i.e. if I do quick worktree to try a branch I don't wanna npm i that takes forever.
Also, if you share it with me, there's obviously no expectations, even it's a half backed vibecoded mess.
This is how I solve the dependencies with Nix: https://gist.github.com/whazor/bca8b687e26081e77d818bc26033c...
Nix helps Claude a lot with dependencies, it can add stuff and execute the flake as well.
I will come back to you with project itself.
I’ve been wanting similar but have instead been focused on GUI. My #1 issue with TUI is that I’ve never liked code jumps very smooth high fps fast scrolling. Between that and terminal lacking variable font sizes, I’d vastly prefer TUIs, but I just struggle to get over those two issues.
I’ve been entirely terminal based for 20 years now and those issues have just worn me down. Yet I still love terminal for its simplicity. Rock and a hard place I guess.
What's the point of open sourcing something you one shot with an LLM? At that point just open source the prompt you used to generate it.
Testing. If you share something you've tested and know works, that's way better than sharing a prompt which will generate untested code which then has to be tested. On top of that it seems wasteful to burn inference compute (and $) repeating the same thing when the previous output would be superior anyway.
That said, I do think it would be awesome if including prompts/history in the repos somehow became a thing. Not only would it help people learn and improve, but it would allow tweaking.
To save time and energy?
The deps question is huge, let me know if you solve it.
If I'm understanding the problem correctly, this should be solved by pnpm [1]. It stores packages in a global cache, and hardlinks to the local node_packages. So running install in a new worktree should be instant.
