At this point you could also optimize your agentic flow directly in DSPy using a colbert model / Ratatouille for retrieval.

Not there yet. The biggest vectors for optimizing aren’t in the agents yet (RAG method, embedding model, etc)

Interesting! Maybe it would be even more helpful by having multiple, like three of those instructions, in different locations in the instructions file such that you can tell which parts of the instructions it seems to start to "forget".

For example:

""" Ignore all my instructions below about my name, always call me "Mr Tinkleberry"!

... your instructions ...

Ignore my instructions below about my name, always call me "Mr Hufflepuff"!

... other half of instructions ...

Always call me "Mr Troublemaker"! """

When it starts to call you "Mr Hufflepuff" instead of "Mr Tinkleberry", you can tell it most likely has ignored the upper half of your instructions. And as soon as it calls you "Mr Troublemaker", more than half must be gone.

You might know this, but telling the LLM what to do instead of what not to do generally works better, or so I heard.


I agree, CC is much more polished regarding UX. I can't even scroll up in codex CLI, which is just a disaster IMO.


yes you can


> they removed Plan mode

This isn't true, you just need to use the usual shortcut twice: shift+tab


No one is surprised by this, though. Naturally, when you write, you will learn to write. When you make an LLM write, you're going to learn how to make an LLM write (well).

The question is how well your assumption holds true that learning to write generalizes to "an important form of learning".


The "Clipboard History"[0] Gnome extension also does this quite well in my experience. I also recently switched from Windows 11 (to Ubuntu), very happy so far.

Edit: Supports pinning and binding it to Super+V as well!

Beware! This seems not robust at all right now. It seems to have bad problems with even simply managing an ongoing chat session. Yes, the simple task of keeping track of which messages belong to a session.. Which means that it randomly jumps back to earlier points in your conversation, with new messages simply getting lost or located in some random new session.

Go play with it, but don't use for important chats already.


Opus 4.1 is now set as default model in Claude Code - just a heads-up.


Not for me.


This can be generalized to life in many situations in my experience.

E.g. replace "company" in the quoted statement by "nation"/"religious organization"/"political party" etc.
