replyForgive me for asking if I should know, but who is the author? Is he famous?

'Tis a joke. His landing page says he's a dev at Salesforce, so I presume not famous.

I think that was tongue in cheek. And by that I don't mean the author's tongue was actually in his cheek.
I also think it went over your head. And by that I don't mean I think it literally went over your head.

It's clearly a joke, but I can forgive some people for taking it literally, given the impact that certain well-known devs have on other companies' decision-making. It's a common enough line that it's plausible this could have been a VIP whose opinions swayed a company. Not him and not Anthropic, of course, but it does happen.

I can't believe you didn't pick up on the sarcasm in the GP's comment...

The whole AGENTS vs CLAUDE md issue was bound to be resolved. If the models are getting smarter and harnesses getting better - how could you have a product so dumb that it ignores whatever skills, instructions, references, other things that are part of the folder context it is mounted in.
replyHaving claude code ignore agents.md just made it seem dumb. At this point, you probably don't need either.

replyThere's only so much stuff I have the patience to tell it in a session before I write it down somewhere.
Note though that this for local models that can run on a 5090, so, kinda dumb models with a small context window. Also they might perform differently on a custom pi setup rather than the very feature rich ohmypi.
Mostly the runs just cause me to get decision fatigue so I typically just use opencode and let a frontier model choose whatever cheaper models it wants to orchestrate with, so long as it's one that's not on the same token budget.
P.S. I'd always wondered who it was that got caleb.software before I could... Outshot in a western duel!
