Have you seen CraftApps [0]? They are "clean room" implementations of MS Word (WordCraft), MS Excel (GridCraft) and MS PowerPoint (DeckCraft), among others.

> Tools, especially open source ones (linters, static analysis, scanning, LSPs, IDEs, etc) are not built for monorepos, and with AI Agents working in the monorepo results in an enormous increase in input tokens as the agents are constantly trying to grep this giant source tree.

I've been thinking that one could dynamically patch .claude/settings.json (or its equivalent for other agents) to allow reads/writes only to the active app/package being edited and its dependencies (other packages/apps).

Is the usage-based pricing of Signifyd et al cheaper than using 3D secure? What about "micro" transactions?

I've had a positive experience building a library of parametric HVAC duct parts using Claude, Gemini and Codex using build123d (they all review the specs and code collaboratively).

Add an extra fixed fee if you need 3D Secure (and equivalents). This should be covered already by the assessment and interchange fees to begin with.

Card networks' moat is their network effect. If you need to take a payment from someone around the world, cards are very convenient. Unless Pix and friends get to interop globally, cards will always have a place.
