1. Built an agent memory tool since all agents and clis are dumb and don't remember anything. Instead of prepping 300 project files and Md files I just say:

Check sugar memory for the latest thing we were working on.

2. The second thing is when making changes across a large codebase agents are also dumb at figuring this out and also grep 300 things, using tons of tokens. Instead I say

Check RemembrallMCP to analyze the impact of the change.

This is like a combination of a Sony Walkman meets Rasberry PI meets the prepper in me. Perfect.

And there it is, the vaccum of AI consuming your data everywhere, used to train their models all goes back to... ads.

Same things with OpenAI. Ads.

I feel like we're right back in the early 2000's Internet again at least they aren't popups, we hope.

But with these models being embedded into, literally everything, will your screen on your car start showing you ads before you can turn the AC on?

It's coming

Non profit files for IPO should be the headline.

So basically we are now waiting for a wave of massive new exploits coming via GitHub itself. Lovely

Small plug for what I built:

You need a code dependency graph: https://github.com/roboticforce/remembrallmcp Ask "what breaks if I change this?"

Saves 98% token usage. Saves 95% tools being called.

Runs as an MCP server, works for 8 languages.

It just works, you need to try it.

Currently, we face lots of churn in our ecosystems. API updates, CVEs that need updates, supply chain compromises - keeping up is getting harder and we need something to help us manage that, get notified and allow us to take action.

This is why I created ChangeSpec, an open standard to communicate software changes.

I'd love to get feedback and work on it together, it's still early but I hope you like it.

Does it help track me all the expenses from email and make them Booker ready or accountant ready. Worst paperwork job ever.

Working on a way for us to communicate software changes properly with people, systems and AI.

I'm frustrated at how we just do library updates and get whatever is next. Things break. Finding a changelog sucks. Vendor updates maybe put something in X.

We can do better so I'm starting an open initiative to tackle that.

By fall most execs will be asking about the new spend and GitHub alternatives will be researched.

Between 27x model costs and this, CVE exploits and downtime their platform is starting to feel like a questionable decision.

cdnsteve — Thu, 16 Apr 2026 21:56:50 +0000

Are you using multiple agents on the same project? If you are, use git worktrees.

I personally prefer 3-4 concurrent terminal sessions, working on different projects. Claude code usually runs around everywhere with agents, and sometimes takes 20 minutes to get shit done. During that time I'm shipping open source work, etc.

I use my own tools to help: Sugar and RemembrallMCP. Sugar is used for memory that's stored outside sessions. So I say store this in sugar memory. If I open a new claude session later, and ask it to lookup sugar memory, it's there.

RemembrallMCP is a AST and code graph that helps the agents understand change impact of your codebase. Instead of insane greps veritical and horizontal, it uses this to quickly understand impact with very high accuracy, time reduction and low token limits.

Game changers.
