Agree. I’d only add that I think there is incentive for them to be solved, but there are greater incentives worth more to those leading the charge.

100%. All this talk but zero action, feels more like a COA than a warning. Not sure why very little is being done and those building it are also the ones being asked to make it safe. Makes zero sense

100%. Having something as simple as a name be the thing that inadvertently publishes sensitive data is a product / judgement fault. You can’t ask for the keys then not know what to do with it

The OpenCode example made me lol I wonder if the new Claude Code Projects is better equipment to execute on the “dumb” aspects you shared https://youtu.be/omihvjf0A2k?si=hIBh7t9ZmUBojsR_

Very cool app. “ Nagare syncs your data through iCloud and makes this context available to your agent through MCP.” how did you do this part? I thought iCloud was locked down, especially for access via an MCP.

Don’t miss the nap trap days but glad you found a useful way to be productive. I ran into a similar issue and built something free & open source. Not on the App Store yet but you can try it https://testflight.apple.com/join/AkJxAbnJ. It works on iOS & iPadOS and the main difference is it’s always the herdr interface, because I always kind of liked it. I’ve been using it a while (similar tailscale set up) and it works well but needs a little polish. Hope you all enjoy it

The economics to run a local model don’t stack up for me but I love the idea of running an open model locally for safety & privacy. I use Claude plus I’ve used Apple’s on device foundational models for parsing recipes and other small tasks in the apps I’ve built.

I use Notion too. Claude suggested a MCP in front of Notion with rules about how to update Notion pages, and another MCP for other actions over Tailscale.

Does edwinarbus‘s response make this more or less likely that you’re right? I’m leaning towards more likely.

Apple co-developed Matter and brought its security with it. If they can do that for LG products and prove their adherence to privacy & security, then I think that’s a win for home automation customers as it brings more competition to the space. The new ikea bulbs are a good example, they’re matter over thread and so cheap compared to Philips hue.

In my experience, I’ve asked mods for approval before any self promotion. One told me to get f***d and muted me, the other said it was ok. If you’re just farming for farmings sake, then a ban is fair. Otherwise, if AI isn’t allowed then I just review & post by hand.
