I'm hosting a cozy online coding show-and-tell on Saturday with @AlexAridgides ! 🧦 Curious about: - What does your workflow look like? Are you a command-line maxi? Is the only key you press "tab"? - Do you have homebrew tooling? A whole fleet of agents? MCPs? - What're the most

4. Tool call (web search) Something cool that kicked in when pasted in example code from the tinker-cookbook repo was CC would use web search tool to look up the full repo. This was really helpful to do the crud work of pulling out / copy-pasting only the utils I needed from
