I don't understand why chatGPT and Claude don't allow you to queue messages or pass more in as they're responding like Claude Code, often find I want to refine the problem as I've remembered more context etc

Not sure if it was poorly advertised or I've just had my head in the sand but I didn't know Github now had an MCP registry github.com/mcp Not sure how they hand picked the 44 servers they've included, has a lot of the ones I'd use day to day although Linear is clearly missing
MCP Registry
A faster, safer way to build with AI: the GitHub MCP Registry centralizes MCP servers for effortless discovery, integration, and open collaboration.

Anyone see an improvement in copilot code completions since they “enhanced” the chatGPT 4.1 model the use?
I know everyone is in cursor so hasn’t even tried it.

@s.ly Do you know if you can run plugins inside Claude Code web? From the docs and experimenting with superpowers in it I'd say No. But its not immediate obvious and wondered if anyone else had tried

Started playing with obra/superpowers yesterday and my first impression is it's a step forward when working with Claude Code. Requires you to interact with the agent more but having a clear planning phase with specific outputs at each step really helps.

Good to see, cloudflare needs ti support popular frameworks to gain adoption of workers which is an underutilised choice IMO
Those benchmarks from @t3.gg revealed some interesting issues in Workers. Happy to say it's all fixed now, save for some lingering next.js-specific stuff we're continuing to work on. Thanks for the reproducible test cases, @t3.gg.

This actually cost almost $15, if the output was decent it would have been money well spent but instead I paid $15 for trash.
Will find out cost tomorrow once AWS billing catches up, when complete it said the work cost $5 but idk if it’s smart enough to know that via AWS costing.

Don’t want this to come across as another engineering being negative about AI and saying it won’t take my job.
Engineers using AI are gaining super powers, those with experience are able to ship quicker or build more ambitious applications.

Finally tried Claude Code today. Nice it just needs access to the API and support AWS and GCP endpoints out the box.
Was easy to setup with the work AWS account to use Bedrock. Took a long time to gain context and perform the task of finishing our migration from one react state lib to another.

Just published a highly opinionated guide to stand-up meetings. It’s based on ~25 years working with close to 100 product teams, and seeing first-hand what actually helps teams deliver - and what just wastes everyone’s time.
If your stand-ups feel like a chore or status theatre, this is for you.
