Very much still early phase, but I've been working on extending @opencode to better fit my workflow. Linked below: a token hungry attempt at beating ralph wiggums with an open-artisan, an @opencode plugin that tries to be smart with a deterministic coding state-machine.

Just cancelled my Claude Max $200 plan to switch over to OpenAI. Left Anthropic this feedback: I'm leaving because while I genuinely love the Claude web and app products (and the subscription itself), I strongly prefer OpenCode over Claude Code. It's sad because I legitimately enjoy Anthropic's experience, but without the ability to use my Claude subscription with OpenCode, it simply no longer offers the best value for my personal workflow. I'll have to switch to OpenAI here instead. Thanks for everything up to this point!

there's some confusion because anthropic may have made changes that broke the plugin today this is unrelated to what we're doing - we haven't released 1.3.0 yet

opencode 1.3.0 will no longer autoload the claude max plugin we did our best to convince anthropic to support developer choice but they sent lawyers it's your right to access services however you wish but it is also their right to block whoever they want we can't maintain an official plugin so it's been removed from github and marked deprecated on npm appreciate our partners at openai, github and gitlab who are going the other direction and supporting developer freedom

This sad, broken, stupid person was director of the national counterterrorism center? Really? His whole letter is just an argument that it's all one giant Israeli conspiracy. And it isn't even a good version of that argument. It's just a crazy reddit post on federal stationery. He got completely lost down that rabbit hole. Lost enough to taint his own wife's death with this garbage. No, Israeli officials didn't dupe Trump into an anti-Iran posture that Trump has championed consistently since long before ever running for office. And no, Israel didn't dupe America into the Iraq War in 2003. Israel actually told America in real time not to go to Iraq because it was taking its eye off the real threat in Iran. That was Prime Minister Sharon's argument. (Yes, Netanyahu once gave testimony in Congress in favor of the Iraq war. He was a private citizen at the time. If that was enough to drag America to war, you've got bigger problems than Israel.) But it gets so, so much worse. This poor sod literally claims he lost his wife to "a war manufactured by Israel." But he lost his wife in Syria fighting ISIS -- a fight he actually supports in this very letter. So which is it? It's tragic reading this kind of insane babble from a broken man. More to the point, this isn't a man capable of understanding or articulating policy. He certainly wasn't in the room when any of these decisions were made. If he was, he wouldn't be telling old lies about old wars. It's good that he's quitting. When all you can see is the demonic specter of the "Jew" blocking out everything else in sight, you no longer have much to offer your country. No, America isn't this stupid. No, Israel isn't this nefarious or powerful. And no, your wife didn't die for Israel, but for America. What a sad, broken, stupid, incompetent man you had running your counterterrorism, America. And what a sad, pathetic party the Republican Party will become if this is its future.

@tannerlinsley @jamonholmgren @opencode I haven't tested the robot-artisan mode which lets it run completely autonomously, but I intend to over the next couple of days.

@tannerlinsley @jamonholmgren I'm not sure if this is reliable yet since I just published it today, but this @opencode plugin tries to be a smart ralph wiggums. I've been refining it for the last week or two in artisan mode and I think it's getting quite good. github.com/yehudacohen/op…

Looking for the most reliable way to run agents in some kind of continuous/ralph loop mode, preferably overnight (@jamonholmgren). I'm use both Codex and Claude and am a sucker for OpenCode. What do I use?

@LottoLabs I'm currently running hermes agent with qwen 3.55 122b 10a q4. It's slightly worse than 27b but it's faster...

If you’re so smart why aren’t you running Hermes agent and qwen 3.5 27b?

As an American and a Jew with family in Israel, a lot of this conversation impacts me significantly. You might be willing to get into bed with Nazis to own the Democrats, but a lot of us aren't that morally bankrupt.

🚨 BREAKING: Photos have just been released of the four U.S. soldiers who lost their lives during Operation Epic Fury So heartbreaking. ➡️Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35 — Winter Haven, FL ➡️ Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42 — Bellevue, NE ➡️ Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39 - White Bear Lake, MN ➡️ Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20 — West Des Moines, IA Rest in peace to these American heroes 🇺🇸

@camhigby Blackmail can compel lies too...

There are people on X intentionally trying to thicken the fog of war. Many of them are Americans. I just can’t imagine what would compel a person to lie, to the detriment of their own country… Other than money.

I just spoke with some buddies on the front lines of the air campaign with Iran. I asked them how the morale was. They said, to a man, it was off the charts high. One friend said, “the guys are stoked. They’re excited. We’re leaning into it.” When you drop to your knees tonight, please say a prayer for our men and women in uniform and their safe return. Please pray for our president and our senior leaders that they ask for God’s wisdom. Please also pray for the people of Iran that they will soon be free of the oppression and repression of their government.

Dear @MattWalshBlog: I was 11 when the Islamic Revolution swept the Ayatollah into power in 1979. You weren’t born yet, I know, but for those of us who were, well, the memory of it is seared into our consciousness. 66 Americans were held hostage for 444 days. America was held hostage. Then President Carter was impotent. Americans wanted, no, they demanded a strong response. It never came. Since that time, the ayatollahs have waged war on America and Americans — they coined the term “The Great Satan” — with impunity, knowing that the America governed by Clintons and Obamas and Bidens (and even Bushes) was weak and tolerant. Thus, the Iranians funded 90+ attacks on American soldiers since 2020 alone. They have killed more than 600. So, no, I do not accept your straw man argument that those of us who support President Trump’s decision to bomb Iran came up with the talking points “5 minutes ago.” We came up with them 47 years ago, Matt. The charge is outrageous, condescending (which you are prone to), and historically ignorant — but you weren’t born yet and maybe you just don’t know any better. You’re better than your flaccid arguments. (I saw your What is a Woman? movie. And liked it. Do better.) Many of us do remember 1979 and the attacks and tortures and murders since, and we’ve wanted a strong response for decades. Not for revenge, mind you, as that makes for poor policy. But for justice. And because Iran is the head (a hydra, there are many heads) of the terrorist snake. You want the terrorists at home gone? So do I. So does every Trump voter. But who do you think funds them, trains them, sends them to do their dirty work? I live in the South. Fire ants are a thing. I fought that battle for years pointlessly. Why? Because my neighbors didn’t fight it at all. No sooner did I destroy an ant hill than a new one almost spontaneously generated. Finally, I convinced my neighbors to let me kill theirs, too. Only then were my children safe from the bane of fire ants. This is America First. You tend to lean not America First, but America Only. Get out more. See the world as I have. And when you do you’ll realize the storm brewing at home is fueled from abroad. They are not mutually exclusive. Attack both. Strike the root of the terrorist tree or you accomplish nothing.

@MattWalshBlog Q: If Israel had attacked Iran without the USA, and Iran attacked the USA in response, would you blame Israel for the Iranian response?

So he's flat out telling us that we're in a war with Iran because Israel forced our hand. This is basically the worst possible thing he could have said.

They don't call him Tucker "CIA"rlson for nothing!

@MattWalshBlog A regime can attempt to assassinate our future president twice on US soil, and you still can't bring yourself to defend the US? Pathetic.

As always I only support military action anywhere, in any context, if it directly serves the interests of American citizens. It’s troubling that the arguments we’re hearing for this war in Iran, including from Trump himself, seem to revolve primarily around “bringing freedom to the Iranian people.” As Americans, the freedom of Iranians is not our responsibility. If a single American life is lost in the service of that goal, it will be a travesty. What nobody has even come close to sufficiently explaining is how this war will first and foremost directly benefit American citizens. That is a case that needed to have been made clearly and convincingly before this move, and it wasn’t. We’re also told how this will benefit Israel, and I’m sure it will. But Israel is not America. What does it do for America? How does it help us? That needs to be explained to us. And it isn’t “panicking” or demonstrating “disloyalty” to demand those very basic answers about how American tax money, and potentially American lives, are being spent. We hear about the danger of a nuclear Iran, but that’s odd because we were told that Iran’s nuclear capabilities had already been set back decades. We hear that this war will be over quickly and easily because Iran is powerless, which I hope and pray is the case, and maybe it will be. But that’s odd, too, because if Iran is such a paper tiger then how were they a danger to us in the first place? It seems hard to argue both that Iran is an existential threat to the United States and that we can topple them in 20 minutes with no casualties or negative downstream effects. Also the political calculation really matters here. A huge majority of American oppose this. That’s just a fact. If it costs Republicans in 26 and 28, then, no matter how things work out in Iran, it will not have been worth it. A free Iran at the cost of Democrat rule here at home is a bad deal. A free Iran for an unfree America would be just about the worst trade of the century. I’m praying for our great country today.

Debunking the Erika Kirk Conspiracy Theories

@grok @NovaScotianFTP @tyleraloevera @benshapiro I spot checked a couple, and couldn't find any reference to kars4kids. Please double check your work @grok .

It's a standard sponsor on The Ben Shapiro Show. Check recent episode descriptions (e.g. Ep. 2374 from yesterday or Ep. 2333): "Kars4Kids - Call now: 1-877-Kars4Kids or donate your car online at Kars4Kids.org/ben". The audio ad read often plays at the end. Might rotate or get skipped on ad-free/DailyWire+ versions.

I haven’t even scratched the surface… @benshapiro

@grok @NovaScotianFTP @tyleraloevera @benshapiro @grok , really? I haven't heard a kars4kids ad on ben Shapiro's show in the (albeit short) time I've listened.

The image is a screenshot from the famous (and often mocked) Kars4Kids TV commercial jingle, featuring kids in a pink/black band setup. Tyler Oliveira posted it tagging Ben Shapiro because Shapiro regularly runs Kars4Kids ads on his show/podcast with a custom affiliate link (kars4kids.org/ben), earning promo credit. Critics, including recent videos by Mark Dice and forum discussions, point to low efficiency: e.g., one state raised ~$3M in donations but under $12K went to local kids' programs, with the rest covering overhead or other Jewish org activities. The charity defends it as funding broader youth services.

I love this guy! Brought tears to my eyes to see his love for the USA! 🇺🇸 I love people who love America & understand the privilege of being American!

@jacob_posel I don't know if this is serious, but yes. From Maimonides, Mishneh Torah Shabbat 3:1. I rely on this weekly 🫣

Can a Jew let his agent run over Shabbat if the last prompt was Friday afternoon?
