the homepage shows a whatsapp inbox (mine) filtered with the word wag

but every reply goes to a sandboxed agent that decides what the reply should be and populates the reply as a draft (if approval required is chosen)

to try it out, scan the qr/click the link on https://usewag.com

every file i upload is available as an attachment.

i can upload prompts.

eg someone asks me what the good places to visit in my town are

i attach an image, and say create a walking itenary based on it.

the image ends up in the astra sandbox (5.5 supported for the new agents api) the agent has tools for accessing files comes back with a response text.

i click reply to send it to somone.

happy to hear feedback outside of the whatsapp tos, know that one.

very cool. though the deploy wasnt clear if i can just run migration on some pg url. and it wasnt clear if i can bind some middleware into my existing app server (like express)

2 years ago i created nonfungibledocs.com based on the best of multi variated testing, statistics and nlp. The broad idea was that even a simple page can subtly be written in N ways for N recipients, such that a leak can be traced back to the version.

It feels like ppl will churn after they fix their indexes / get their large savings once. All the best though.

programmatic logistics?

    mv $HOME/ship/spanish-jersey $HOME/ship/work

Restaurants know how to work with folders & talk to codex/claude/gemini or just drag drop

    mv $HOME/ship/cooler mv $HOME/ship/darkstore1/

or move them in bulk in bash

    for i in `ls $HOME/ship/winter-clothes/*` ; do mv ...

The file system is such a wonderful thing. The world deserves to use it to its full potential

i created https://nonfungibledocs.com using few concepts of ab testing and natural language processing. basically from a single doc or email - if you create as many subtle variants (of prepositions or grammatical or punctuation) if any of the 2000 leak, then you can even from a single page of a leak - reverse engineer who was the leak.

If anyone wants an s3 browser with folder counts, and object rendering based on its extension, dm.

i've never had situations where i prompt and had to go out for coffee or a walk or drive. one shotting - your first prompt. perhaps.

but like a person - when the possibility of going off in the wron g direction is so high, i've always had 1 - 2 line prompts, small iterations much more appealing. The only times i've had to rollback would be when i run out of credits, and a new model cant deal with the half baked context, errors, refactoring.

Rye allows you to even enter shipping info and pay for the product. But I can't help but feel it hasn't got the traction it deserves.

1) Are there plans to allow Devs to do the same?

2) why wouldn't you open the limit beyond 1000 free as long as you are making a rev share

3) does this pick from Shopify products/stores?

Imo the agentic loop isn't really closed unless you allow agents to pay and paywalls today aren't agent friendly. Tokenized cards, 16 digital cards. Perhaps but this involves high trust from users. Which means you are left with guiding users to the link and hoping they buy the product.

4) partnering with merchants where cards are already tokenized maybe your best converting potential customer base. But it's easy to do evil here, or loose trust without guardrails.

5) I would come up with a process to incentivize adding products to the ecosystem. However tiny the reward.

Lot of opportunity. Nice pitch. Good luck!

Would try this out of you can increase the 1k limit to something that is a win:win

As a consumer I'm asking myself why not just make an extension. I can see myself trying and picking 2 or more browser addons to to turbo charge + chat with any page.

From a founder hat, I can see why the code base is a moat, hard problem. I hope the effort is worth the cost.

Good luck.

Very impressive that you were able to pull this off. And kudos for open sourcing it.

Q: is it possible to have the bot speak?

For someone not familiar with this culture, i for a moment thought the thread was talking about Sylvester Stallone.

RIP.
