Finally added nested property support to Tagify. Been meaning to get this one done for ages...
If you are using #OTEL in .NET, this makes life a lot easier.

I couldn’t find a decent syntax highlighting library for .NET — so I built one while working on my AI coding assistant CodePunk.

CodePunk updates
Dropped the git working tree idea for accept/rollback — too complex for little gain. The current accept/reject flow works fine.
Switched focus to syntax highlighting. Couldn't find a good .NET lib, so I started writing my own (C# support so far). Might spin it out into its own repo.

This week in CodePunk (my open-source AI coding agent):

- Better code diff view (cleaner + coloured)
- New tools: glob, list dir, read many files, search
- Smarter prompts

Next up: a shadow git branch for safer edits + rollback.

Been digging into AI coding agents lately — so I built my own. CodePunk: an early preview of an AI coding assistant written in C# .NET.
It can already read/write files, show diffs, and more.
Cross-platform + installable as a .NET tool. github.com/neil-gilbert...
Feedback welcome !!

I've seen lots of posts on here recently where people have that 'aha' moment and finally get what the AI hype is all about. Here is mine 🧵

Watching a talk done by @charity.wtf and realising how far behind mobile development is. The backend, we merge PR's, deploy within 10 mins, one change at a time, whilst observing the deployment in production.
