alt Hacker Newsi didnt realize i needed the volume scaling with tokens burned as much as i do now xD imagine the screaming when it confidently refactors something for 40k tokens and then finds out the thing it deleted was load bearing

Honestly think we probably underutilise sound sometimes.
Even just having a hum while an agent is working could alert you when it get stuck.
Or taking your idea further being able to listen to the rate of tokens, or code changes, or thinking.
Sort of like hearing the machinery work, and hearing the differences in different parts of the code base.
Does python sound different than rust or c++ or typescript.
Or some kind of satisfying sounds for code deletions and others for additions. Like Tetris.
I have in my agents file “Chesterton’s fence” as pointer to think carefully before you remove something
I have general reviewer named Feynman with his personality that shits on anything other agents do and sends it back before it hits me and it sounds perfect to include some sound bites from YouTube clips. Great idea!!
This was actually the original idea of the project, but I only had about 20 seconds to type the prompt for this today so this is where it is :)
