@chenliw @LererHippeau 🤣 I’m always surprised at how well granola does with summaries generally given how mangled the raw transcript can be

@zeeg How do you even keep context about 80+ repos in your head?!?

if you're curious, this is what peak looks like for me its when i was spending most hours building sentry. i had clean design, i had the ability to iterate fast, and i had clear progression the second image is the last year where i'm certainly able to generate a lot more code, but i can tell you that the code is far less maintainable (despite how much effort I put into it) i have not gotten less knowledgeable as an engineer, and while technology has certainly gotten needlessly complex, there's something here that is hard to articulate about the current state of LLMs...

im fully convinced that LLMs are not an actual net productivity boost (today) they remove the barrier to get started, but they create increasingly complex software which does not appear to be maintainable so far, in my situations, they appear to slow down long term velocity

Getting deja-vu from seeing complaints about @meetgranola encrypting the local DB for security reasons. In 2011 @Dropbox got flack for a similar issue - unencrypted local DB exposed the host ID token (though you needed root). Can’t please everyone… news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2421110

We raised $165M at a $1.15B valuation to stop doing demos. 2026 is about 1) deployment and 2) research. We will start shipping Memo with our new frontier models in a few months. Our series-B is led by Coatue, with Thomas Laffont joining the board. ->🧵

Very excited to partner with the @cotoolai team. The good guys on your overworked security team will need better tools!!
Cotool@cotoolai

We've raised a $7.4M seed round led by @a16z to build the agent operating system for security teams. Threat actors now scale with tokens. Campaigns that used to require a coordinated team can be run by a small group with the right model harness. Defense has been absorbing that hit with the same playbook and the same headcount. We built Cotool to make defense compound in the same way. Grateful to the team at @a16z , @YCombinator, @WndrCoLLC , @homebrew , and our angels from Okta, Ramp, Cloudflare, and others who've lived this problem firsthand. If you’re a security practitioner looking for more leverage in the AI age, come see how Cotool can help!

@adityaag What is in the context/instance beyond the repo? Aren’t there just some .json files in .claude/? Couldn’t you just work out a sync-ed folder with different people? I remember there was a product that did this.

Product Idea: There should be a shared "Claude Code" instance that can be passed around different people. It's dumb to have the software repo as an intermediate step.
