Yeah exactly, I wanted something that I could see what the agent was doing. Open Claw was cool but I wanted the controllability and context management that Claude code affords.

I’m making https://yapi.run which is a PostMan alternative for the CLI / VSCode / Cursor that uses declarative YAML to define requests.

Little tool that I made to understand how (un)reasonable my prompts are.

This is a really interesting approach! How did you end up deciding on executable markdown as opposed to other approaches?

I shared a previous version of yapi a few months ago in the comments section of a post talking about the insanity of Postman being 'down'. yapi has developed into a more mature project since then!

Still very early, but it makes me much more productive vs Postman, Bruno, Insomnia, etc.

I made a very simple lightweight yaml based Postman alternative called `yapi`.

https://github.com/jamierpond/yapi

Run this:

  yapi -c ./users.yapi.yaml

With this file:

  # users.yapi.yaml
  # yaml-language-server: $schema=https://pond.audio/yapi/schema
  url: http://localhost:3000
  method: GET
  path: /api/users
  query:
    select[name]: true
    select[tag]: true
    limit: 10

Or just `yapi` to use fzf to find configs.
