Discussion
15 comments analyzed.
Competitors mentioned: Jarvis, Claude (for agent naming/capabilities)
Concerns raised: README instructions rely entirely on "ask your agent" rather than explicit commands, Agent may re-introduce same bugs without learning from corrections, UI tweaking can distract from actual productivity (time sink), Unclear value of specific features (chronometer, data stream, radar visualization, depth field)
Feature requests: Agent learning from corrections during day to improve nightly, Log agent actions and analyze for continuous skill improvement, Fine-tune agent based on user corrections and closed PRs
