Last week, I looked into sending WhatsApp messages from Emacs

Now's time for incoming messages!

ps. I get there are far better alternatives than WhatsApp, but ditching WhatsApp is simply not an option for me for complicated reasons. I wish I could.

Why send WhatsApp messages from your phone or browser, when you can send straight from your text editor!? 😅

The 300th agent-shell star, granted by none other than a Nyan Cat. Could a higher honor be bestowed upon me? Time to pack it up.

Claude down got you down? Use a @zed.dev ACP-powered agent like agent-shell and move on.

Keep the experience, swap providers FTW

claude-code.el is great! My motivation for agent-shell was to build on top of ACP (Agent Client Protocol), so I can have a consistent Emacs experience regardless of the agent (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, Goose, Qwen, etc). If you give agent-shell a try, I'd love to hear about your experience.

I always wanted an Emacs world clock I could easily add cities to and shift the times (ie. find meeting times across timezones).

Playing around with my own implementation.

An early Qwen Code integration is now in agent-shell

github.com/xenodium/age...

#emacs #qwen #claude #anthropic #ai #google #goose #gemini #linux #github #macos #oss #foss #hackernews
This Emacs screenshot shows a dark-themed terminal buffer for "Qwen Code Agent" in the directory "~/stuff/active/code/agent-shell". At the top, large orange/yellow block letters spell "QWEN". Below, inviting text introduces the "agent shell" and suggests pressing RET for help. There’s a prompt (“qwen> hello”) with a green “completed” status and “Starting agent” in purple. The agent greets the user: "Hello! How can I assist you with the agent-shell project today?" The modeline at the bottom displays the project name, a rainbow progress bar, and status info.

I recently learned about Goose in an agent-shell feature request... In any case, support is there now :)
