There's a nice feature in the new version that lets you copy tool _arguments_ in to the HTTP Headers for custom routing etc.

fast-agent is very good at this (disclosure: author) you can specify --url, --npx and include --auth $TOKEN on the command line. you can also interactively connect with /connect, and pixel peep transport details https://fast

Gotcha - yeah, it removes the tool calling step so their content is always in context (noting they took action to try and reduce the size of that). The framing seems a little simplistic -- thanks for the link.

I think the paper is saying specifically that it's redundant to include information about your coding repository when that information is otherwise available to the agent in higher fidelity forms (e.g. package.json). This makes sense -

fast-agent lets you do this as well (and has a skill in its default skills repo to help with automation/running in container/hf job).

Yes -- skills live in a special gap between "should have been a deterministic program" and "model already had the ability to figure this out". My personal experience leaves me in agreement that minimal system prompts are

An excellent piece of writing. One thing I do find is that subagents are helpful for performance -- offloading tasks to smaller models (gpt-oss specifically for me) gets data to the bigger model quicker.

A lot of those books are more about persuasion than motivation - they can look similar from a distance.

fast-agent has ACP support and works well with ollama. Once installed you can just use `toad acp "fast-agent-acp --model generic.<ollama-model>"`.

I quite like the look of this one - seems to fit somewhere between the rigid structure of MCP Elicitations and the freeform nature of MCP-UI/Skybridge.

Structured Output in this case refers to the output from the MCP Server Tool Call, not the LLM itself.

Yes. VSCode 1.101.0 does, as well as fast-agent. Earlier I posted about mcp-webcam (you can find it) which gives you a no-install way to try out Sampling if you like.

The list here https://modelcontextprotocol.io/clients has a number of Host applications, frameworks etc.

Really looking forward to integrating with these models. The next version of Model Context Protocol will have native audio support ( https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/specification/pull/9... ), which will

I've spent more on Claude Code than I'm willing to admit, and I'd estimate about 50% of the spend is "written off". With CC it can be tough to judge when to stop on a particular path. Prior to CC I was using Goose,

Most LLMs including Claude struggle using the @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem server - it's way too complex (and tools like Goose wrap ripgrep in an MCP to handle it). A simple MCP Server with the SDKs can easily be less t

The Messages API contains a special section for placing Tool information, which is added to the Context Window - and it's this information that the Model then uses to decide whether to attempt a Tool Call. In that case, we configure th
