whimsical107220hThis is an application that works exactly the same like those tools written by me: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/r
It supports all models that do function calling. Also the models that do not, but that's not documented how.
I use this application every day. I can just type: `r search news about elon musk` or i can type `r read app.py, create a README.md based on it and save it without confirmation.`.
It's best tested on gpt(4.1, 4o-mini).
It's written in C because i'm crazy. It's literally the last tool your should write such thing in. -
whimsical107220hBtw, this was made MONTHS before OpenAI / Claude / Google made such cli tool. I was first.
It just works interactive as a chat as wel. It can also read the news and stuff and discuss about it. It can index your whole source directy, everything like claude code does. -
whimsical107220h@BordedDev oh F! It's an exe! :P Whaha, so funny, it actually knows it's on linux. There is an invisible prompt you don't see with system results and stuff, that's how it knows how to execute things like installing normally.

BordedDev179720h@whimsical We both know that's exactly what it would do though, it can figure out cryptic stack traces it can figure out how to run an exe ;P

whimsical107219h@BordedDev it surprised us many times. But for bugs / stack traces, i have ctrl+g these days, a screen interpreter that i can ask what is going on whetether i see an error in a browser, terminal or whatso ever. It supports whole R, so i can do whatever i want with it. It's very powerful.

@whimsical Yeah it's really cool, you're already living with the AI tools from the movies, only thing missing is a voice
#11 of becoming an Anthropic FanGirl (UwU),
I've been wanting to try beekeeper studio for a while, but most of my DBs are in DBeaver, and have been for a while.
So pitted gemini-cli against claude-code, and prompted them identical prompts "Please, Install beekeeper studio".
B+ for effort goes to gemini-cli, it took a while but found an AppImage, which it could not download, took about 5 minutes trying, might be something related to persmissions.
Claude just found a flatpak out of the gate and installed, by the 5th minute I already asked it to migrate the connections and check if the tunnels where configured
