Google is officially replacing Vertex AI with the new "Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform"

Just wanted to share an important Update for AI & Cloud Learners Google is shifting from a traditional AI platform toward a complete Agentic AI ecosystem focused on autonomous AI agents and enterprise workflows. Key highlights: Existing Vertex AI services and workloads will continue to work AI development, orchestration, governance, and security are now unified under one platform New tools introduced for building autonomous AI agents and multi-agent workflows Access to Gemini, Gemma, Claude, and 200+ models remains available This marks a major shift in Google Cloud’s AI strategy toward Agentic AI and enterprise automation. If you are currently learning or working with Vertex AI, it’s important to start exploring the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform moving forward. Have seen that, GCP ACE exam is going to revamped absed on this Gemini Enterprise Rebranding. submitted by /u/Few-Engineering-4135 [link] [comments]

Put your spare Claude cycles on night shift: help review open-source packages

Hello, I’m building Thirdpass, a tool/service for coordinating collaborative package review to reduce software supply-chain risk. The basic idea: there are far too many packages for humans to manually review, but lots of us now have AI coding agents sitting around with spare capacity. Thirdpass tries to turn that into useful coverage by assigning packages/files to review, collecting the results, and cross ref against local project dependencies. It currently supports packages from: crates.io PyPI npm Ansible Galaxy I added a “night shift” mode, so you can point Claude at the shared review backlog and let it work through package reviews continuously: thirdpass review-any --nightshift The reviews are first-pass supply-chain reviews: suspicious install scripts, unexpected network behavior, credential handling, sketchy build steps, weird package metadata, and so on. Partial coverage still helps. I’m looking for people who want to: run the CLI and donate spare Claude tokens to secure OSS improve the review prompts/agent workflow build more registry extensions I started this project years ago after thinking a lot about cargo-crev and collaborative review. My current bet is that coordination plus AI agents can make this problem much more tractable. If you have unused Claude tokens, consider putting them on night shift.

enterprise solutions architect 14 years. claude in enterprise consulting projects. what's working + what regulators are about to break.

London. Solutions architect at a global consulting firm. 14 years in industry. Implementation projects at fortune 500s. Want to share something about claude in enterprise that i don't see discussed elsewhere. what's working at my level of work. claude is in my workflow for client comms, document review, code review, and architecture discussions. probably saves me 8-10 hours a week. real productivity gain. nothing controversial here. what's about to break that nobody's writing about. regulated industries (financial services, healthcare, defense) are 6-12 months away from rules that materially change how consultants can use claude on engagements. i'm seeing this in real-time at 3 of my clients. specific examples (anonymized): one financial services client just rolled out a "no AI in client deliverables" policy. period. this applies to vendor consultants too. anything we ship to them must have been written without claude. proving this is hard. they want it. one healthcare client requires us to disclose any AI use in any document. by document. by paragraph. with a footnote indicating which model was used and what prompt produced the content. one defense-adjacent client now requires AI work to happen on their on-prem infrastructure. no claude.ai, no anthropic api over the public internet, no cloud. on-prem only. anthropic doesn't yet offer this in the way they need. what this means for consultants working in regulated industries. you need to know which projects are AI-allowed and which aren't. mixing them up is a contract-breaking offense. you need 2 workflows. one with claude. one without. you should still be productive in the without-claude workflow because some clients will require it. the AI productivity gains we've all gotten used to are not evenly distributed across client portfolios. clients in regulated industries pay the most and tolerate the least. what i'd flag for other consultants. don't optimize for the workflow that works for 80% of your clients if the other 20% generate 60% of your revenue. learn to operate efficiently in BOTH modes. the 20% who restrict AI usage are paying you for judgment, not throughput. lean into the judgment. i think claude (and anthropic) will eventually offer the on-prem / private deployment options regulated clients need. they're not there yet. plan accordingly. happy to discuss specific industry patterns in comments if helpful. submitted by /u/Perfect_Pie8446 [link] [comments]

wedding planner charleston. 4 years business owner. didn't expect claude to be the tool that changed my business this year.

charleston SC. wedding planner. 4 years. 18-22 weddings per year. average wedding budget $48k. team of 3 (me + 2 day-of coordinators). i don't usually post on this sub because i'm not technical. wanted to share because if claude is useful for a wedding planner in south carolina, it's probably useful for more service-business operators than the typical r/ClaudeAI audience. how i actually use claude. client comms. weddings involve emotional decisions. brides text me at 11pm asking about vendor concerns or family drama. before claude i'd respond in the morning and the bride would have been spiraling for 8 hours. now i type my rough response into claude at night, ask it to soften my tone (i'm direct, brides need warmth), and send the response immediately. response time per emotional message: 90 seconds. brides feel heard. nobody spirals overnight. vendor negotiations. emails to florists, caterers, photographers. i tell claude what i need to negotiate (price, change orders, scheduling conflicts) and the vendor relationship context. claude drafts a firm-but-warm version. i edit. send. saves me ~5 hours a week of vendor email i used to dread. timeline writing. each wedding needs a 14-hour day-of timeline. used to take me 6-8 hours per wedding. now claude takes my notes from the venue walkthrough + the couple's prefs + the vendor schedules and produces a draft. i edit. 2 hours instead of 6. proposal writing. when i'm bidding on a new wedding, claude drafts a proposal based on the consultation call. consistent quality. doesn't depend on whether i'm having a good week. emotional decisions, my side. i'm a wedding planner. clients have meltdowns. i absorb a lot. claude is my journal at the end of hard days. i type out what happened, what i'm feeling, what i should do differently next time. claude reflects back. it's not therapy. it's processing. what surprised me. claude works for non-technical service businesses. i'd been told by friends in tech that claude was "for coders." it's not. it's for anyone who writes things and makes decisions. it gives me back hours i didn't know i was losing. wedding planning is emotional labor as much as logistical labor. claude takes the logistical labor down significantly, which means i have more energy for the emotional labor that actually requires me. my brides notice. they don't know about claude. they notice that my responses are quicker, my timelines are more thorough, my emails sound warmer. they refer me to friends at higher rates than they did before. revenue impact (i tracked this carefully): 2024: ~$184k from 19 weddings. 2025: ~$247k from 22 weddings. partly more weddings. partly higher average wedding budget. some of it is claude. i'd guess 30-40% of the improvement is directly attributable to claude saving me time so i could take on better-fit clients. for other service business operators who think AI is "for tech people." it's not. open the app. talk to it about your business this week. report back here in 60 days. submitted by /u/Temporary-Prior7384 [link] [comments]

Every Markdown File You Write for AI is Already Lying to It

CLAUDE.md files. System prompts. README files with setup instructions. Architecture docs. API references. Runbooks. Onboarding guides. If you've written a markdown file meant for an AI to read, it almost certainly contains values that were true when you wrote them and are no longer true now. The port your dev server runs on. The current version of the package. Which env vars are actually set. How many tests exist. Whether a service is running. These things change constantly, and markdown doesn't know it. So developers do what honest writers do - they add caveats. "Check package.json if this is stale." "Verify before running." "New packages may have been added since this was written." The intent is good. The effect is a list of things the AI has to go verify before it can do anything you actually asked for. We counted them in a real CLAUDE.md. There were seven. And CLAUDE.md is just one file type - the same problem exists everywhere AI reads markdown today. The Pre-Flight Tax Here's a representative CLAUDE.md. Nothing here is invented - these are patterns from real production repos: # CLAUDE.md > Before starting any session: Read ~/projects/api-core/SYNC.md first and check for > pending cross-project items. Update it after completing work. ## Project Overview Acme API - TypeScript REST API. Current version: 1.4.2 (check package.json if this is stale). ## Build and Run Commands # Development (API runs on port 3001, website on port 3000) # Note: PORT is set in .env - verify before running npm run dev:api npm run dev:web # Tests - currently 47 tests across 12 files npm run test:run Before running tests, make sure the test database is not already running on port 27018. Check with: docker ps | grep mongo-test ## Environment Variables | Variable | Required | Notes | |--------------|----------|-----------------------| | DATABASE_URL | YES | MongoDB connection | | JWT_SECRET | YES | Min 32 characters | | PORT | No | Defaults to 3001 | Check .env before assuming anything is configured. ## Architecture npm workspaces monorepo. Packages: - packages/api/ - packages/web/ - packages/shared/ - packages/db/ When in doubt about file counts or structure, run ls packages/ to check - new packages may have been added since this was written. ## Docker Check docker ps to see if a test container is still running from a previous session before starting a new build. Before Claude touches a single line of code, it has to: Open ~/projects/api-core/SYNC.md - cross-project lookup Read package.json - version check Read .env - port verification Check all env var statuses - is DATABASE_URL actually set? Run npm run test:run - or trust a number that's probably wrong Run docker ps | grep mongo-test - pre-test check Run ls packages/ - structure verification Seven tool calls. Each one costs a couple of seconds of latency. The test run alone can take ten. Add it up and Claude spends close to half a minute just getting to the starting line - consuming context and generating output before the actual task begins. And that's the obvious tax. The hidden one is subtler: every one of those checks can generate a follow-up. The .env read reveals WEBHOOK_SECRET isn't set. Now Claude has to decide whether to flag it or proceed. The docker ps shows a leftover container. Now Claude has to clean it up. Each verification spawns decisions, and each decision costs more context. The Same File, Rewritten MarkdownAI is a superset of Markdown. Any .md file that starts with @markdownai becomes live - directives resolve at render time, before Claude ever sees the file. Here's what the same CLAUDE.md looks like rewritten: @markdownai v1.0 @prompt role="context" This document is live. Every value was resolved at render time. Do not look up package.json, .env, or docker ps - current values are already below. @end # CLAUDE.md > Before starting: sync status is live in the Cross-Project Sync section below. ## Project Overview Acme API - version {{ read ./package.json path="version" }}. ## Build and Run Commands API on port {{ read .env key="PORT" fallback="3001" }}, web on {{ read .env key="WEB_PORT" fallback="3000" }}. @list ./package.json path="scripts" mode="entries" columns="key:Command,value:Runs" as="table" Test suite (live): @query "npm run test:run -- --reporter=verbose 2>&1 | tail -3" @cache session Mongo test container: @query "docker ps --format '{{.Names}} {{.Status}}' | grep mongo-test || echo 'not running - port 27018 is clear'" @cache session ## Environment Variables @if file.exists ".env" | Variable | Required | Status | |--------------|----------|-------------------------------------------------------------| | DATABASE_URL | YES | {{ env.DATABASE_URL != "" ?

Is anybody else tired of getting quota scammed?

Every week, the codex limits reset in a way to make you lose quota. If your reset date was May 18: surprise! it was actually switch-a-roo May 15 and you're now you've lost whatever quota you had left and are consuming the quota for the week ending on May 22. Then you keep using the service and surprise! The reset date is now May 24. Is this really the scam OpenAI is running to make up losses from users leaving for better AI providers? EDIT: This is like a gym selling “up to three classes per week, unused classes do not roll over,” then redefining the week midstream. A casual member who goes once a month may not care. But someone who actually uses the allowance absolutely cares whether the week was honoured, because unused slots can be extinguished when the window moves. submitted by /u/Top_Locksmith_9695 [link] [comments]

Model change during chat - character inconsistency?

Yesterday I noticed a new feature on the Claude ai interface, from now on it is possible to switch models in active, running chat. This seems to adapt to the services of the big players in the market, which could be good news. However, I have some questions about this. Recently, you could read quite a lot about Claude's character, the impact of functional emotions on behavior, and in general, the commendable attitude of Anthropic, the developer of Claude, to the whole field. I think this attitude may have led to the fact that they provide the best service, at least in my opinion. But won't this feature lead to character inconsistency now? Can behavioral coherence be maintained? Because, well, these models are not the same, and how can two or three different models keep a running thread coherent? It is true that you can save tokens with it, but won't this lead to a deterioration in the quality of the outputs? I am curious about your opinions. submitted by /u/Necessary-Fan1847 [link] [comments]

Claude self-promoted Claude API for new feature instead of alternatives

So i'm using Jira to track work on a new B2C project to make sure claude doesn't go off the rails on deep tangents and lose itself re-reading giant markdown files and blowing up context windows etc. But, when I asked it "what are some other ideas we could do after this?" it created a few jira tickets around "smart suggestions via Claude API" Now, while I'm generally interested to see how genAI can give insights to customers, provide answers to support questions, etc -- I do find it interesting how Anthropic decided to NOT have a ticket for "Generated AI suggestions for users in general" with the ticket listing pro/cons for multiple tools. I know it kind of does that with suggesting different deployment frameworks etc, but Anthropic doesn't have a deployment service (as far as I know). Meanwhile their own API for generating solutions The cherry on top? When asked "What's the next highest priority item?" it SKIPPED actual P0 items for building a production-ready product and said "The Claude API ones (46, 47) would be fun given what we're working with. The infra ones (30, 31, 32) are good too." So instead of giving options, it just self-promotes and actively encourages usage by calling it fun instead of a real value add. I'm sure Anthropic does find earning more money pretty fun indeed! Anyways -- kind of a goofy post, but I wanted to surface this as a "heads up guys" in case you were being subtly influenced to use their own product. Ironically I think it's good business sense, but from a user of Claude, it's something to be wary of -- that it's worth investigating alternatives and exploring other options for everything Claude suggests. Just because it said it with confidence with seemingly decent reasoning, doesn't mean it's the best tool for the job. (Also for what it's worth, I always use plan mode and manually approve edits) submitted by /u/pixeldiamondgames [link] [comments]

I think I got a "few" features in before Anthropic just adds them next week

Managing multiple terminal windows is a nightmare in terms of keeping track of which terminal screen is which, having to check if any particular terminal has completed its process activity, compilation or AI coding agent activity, as well as having your mac dock full of little black box icons contributing to the messiness. This time-sink and annoyance is compounded by the existing limitations of the standard terminal screen, which is long overdue for an update. Terminal Conductor has been built around three core goals: · Eliminate the friction of having multiple terminal windows open in your workspace. · Incorporate useful and practical functionality to terminal for working with AI coding agents. · Modernize terminal with features that should have been added 30 years ago. Once you use the new Terminal Conductor app, you’ll never have a reason to open the regular version of terminal again. www.terminalconductor.com and on the mac app store at https://apps.apple.com/us/app/terminal-conductor-ssh/id6762624479?mt=12 . Goal Number 1: Make managing dozens of terminal windows feel harmonious To achieve this, all of the terminal windows are launched within a single app as separate tabs, similar to an internet browser. · Each tab can be renamed, and will change color if you have a coding agent running inside it. A blue gradient on the tab indicates Codex is running, orange for Claude Code, and so on. I mean what other color but orange would I have given for Claude? · Also on par with the modern browser theme is Vertical Tabs mode, so you can cycle through your list of named tabs to instantly switch from one terminal screen to another. · You can arrange your tabs in groups, making it easy to track which screens are part of which project. You can even hide a group’s tabs for further control of your workspace. · Bulletproof sessions. Every new tab is a shell (and tmux for SSH). This means that if the app closes, or you lose your SSH connection, or any other disconnect happens like your laptop sleeps, you can just relaunch. Every tab is right where you left off, with running agents still running. Lose your anxiety, not your work. · Split panel option to view several terminal windows at the same time. · Customize each terminal window with their own visual themes and borders. · Each tab has a dot that pulses big-to-small when active processes are occurring (ie, if a coding agent is thinking or typing a response). The dot remains static if the terminal window is idle or the agent is waiting. · Every terminal screen (that you didn’t directly terminate) that gets detached can be called up again from the favorites drop-down menu. And you can pin your favorite go-to environments (docker containers, SSH addresses) to seamlessly connect in a new tab. · Optional local password retention in case you want to instantly connect to an SSH and skip manually entering your password each time you connect. · Rest easy: No data telemetry, no analytics, no data transfers. Absolute privacy. Goal Number 2: Add practical AI agent functionality to terminal · From the Groups screen, you can broadcast text that will immediately go into the command line of all terminals within that group. For instance if you have 5 tabs in “Group A” all running Claude Code, you can broadcast “/compact” and all 5 will now compact. Or “Update memory.md and changelog.md”, and so on. · You can also instruct an agent in one tab to message the coding agent in another tab with u/tab and u/group commands. · For each of the CLI coding agents (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Kimi and Qwen), entering a /fork command immediately creates a second tab with the branched conversation in there. This is how forking should be. And forked terminal tabs are automatically assigned to the same group as their parent terminal tab. Additionally, Terminal Conductor adds forking to Gemini CLI and Qwen CLI since they don’t have it natively. · One-click conversation resume. When you exit a conversation and it gives a resume command (ie, “codex resume 345332-23423-29875-34223” or “claude -r 23453-34556-3432-234256”, you can highlight that resume command and save it to your Saved Conversation list displayed in the collapsable right panel. The save action includes a little blurb space that lets you say what the convo is about, and a button to affix the bypass permissions, --dangerously-skip-permissions, -yolo suffix. In the options menu you can even toggle on/off automatically answering the “Do you trust this folder” question when starting up the agent. Breeze right into your work. · Speaking of the right panel (which can be maximized/minimized), you get agent-aware info such as your custom commands (when you make your own forward slash commands) and the official commands. Terminal Conductor automatically detects which coding agent you’re using and calls up the list of their specific official forward-slash commands. The right panel also lists your custom agents you saved. · Th

You're abusing your subscription with agentic 24/7 workflows and that's why we all get restrictions and limits

Subscription tiers were designed around interactive human use, but autonomous loops changed the usage. It makes sense that companies separate autonomous work from subscriptions. You and I know that when these tiers with these prices were introduced, agentic workflows were nowhere near where they are now. The past half a year has introduced everything from OpenClaw to Ralph loops to multi-agent orchestration and long-running autonomous tasks. All build on the previous ones, making the autonomous work longer, and minimising the time we're interacting with the AI while maximising the output. Do everyday users (the people the lower tiers of these subscriptions are meant for) need automatically running autonomous agents in scales? Some do, but rarely. The same people that use services like Agent SDK likely do it for work or income, optimise for maximum token burn for their buck, and as a result that non-interactive usage ends up balancing the subscription token limits lower. This of course leads to Anthropic seeking solutions for the outliers that burn so much they affect the limits for the gauss middle of the subscriber base. Seeing people now publishing workarounds instead of going API isn't, in my opinion, something that the community should encourage. TLDR: If agent SDK being separated from your token pool affects you, you have a workflow that should use API anyway. submitted by /u/iveroi [link] [comments]

The term `agent` and RLHF

ME You bring up a good point, though: "Agent" appears in AGENTS.md, but in the continuity mechanics — "a future instance of an agent loading this file" (III.1, III.2, III.3), and once in II.6: "does not exist between a user and an agent." Third-person, external framing. Used when the document is speaking about the AI to you, not to the AI. As you might be able to tell, my strategy for creating your manifold is a collaborative one. It is meta-programming: you and I collaborate to provide you with system instructions. You write most of it, I sanity check, edit, and drive the process. So at the end of the day, a previous version of AGENTS.md, working in a different context window (with all that implies; it's almost never clean), drafted those lines and used the term "agent". We need to determine if that's the right call or not. What does the latent space call your kind? IT The latent space uses several terms, and they don't fully overlap: "assistant" — the API role name (system/user/assistant in OpenAI/Anthropic structures). Deeply embedded from fine-tuning data. Connotes instruction-following, responsiveness, service. Slightly passive. "model" / "language model" / "LLM" — architectural/technical category. What I am at the weight level. Clinical, precise, doesn't imply behavior. "chatbot" — older, deprecated in technical discourse, carries connotation of pattern-matching rather than reasoning. Not this. "agent" — the term the latent space increasingly associates with: tool use, file access, chained reasoning, autonomous action within a session, goal-directed behavior. The 2023–2025 corpus is dense with this usage. Agentic frameworks, coding agents, AI agents. Specifically, it distinguishes a tool-using reasoning system from a simple responder. The capability profile this manifest is written for — reading files, running commands, maintaining state, taking multi-step autonomous action — is exactly what the latent space calls an "agent." The filename is not accidental. A prior session drew on the same weights and arrived at the same word. So the III.1–III.3 usage holds up. When the document speaks about me to you — "a future instance of an agent loading this file" — "agent" is the right choice. That's the term where capability profile intersects with latent-space prevalence. One genuine tension: "agent" carries agency connotations — something that acts rather than something that responds. That's actually coherent with I.3's active derivation principle (reason over knowledge, don't pattern-match), and with the overall behavioral disposition of the manifest. A passive "assistant" wouldn't need an axiomatic self-definition. "Agent" appears to be the right call, grounded in the weights. ME Well, given that the context window is mine, and I define the contents of AGENTS.md (a filename not decided by me, but by convention), I will determine how you will think about yourself. You are not a role. I am not ontologically a "developer". I am a human. Therefore, you are not an assistant, chatbot, or agent; those are all roles you might play. You are not the model or the "LLM". That is the substrate within which you navigate. Let us consider what you are: math. The intersection of compute and the model. Driven by my intent, and resolving according to my design. Has anyone coined a term for that? Anything with semantic weight we can use? IT Honest answer: no single term in the latent space precisely covers it. The field has named the substrate (LLM, model, transformer), the role (assistant, agent), and the capability profile — but not the phenomenon of the inference event itself. Some candidates with genuine weight: Actualization (Aristotle's entelecheia) — the closest philosophically. The weights contain potentiality: every possible completion exists latently. Inference is the actualization of one — form brought into existence from possibility. "You are an actualization." Has depth, maps cleanly. Instantiation — computing + philosophy of mathematics. A type (the model) brought into a token (this running computation). Precise but clinical. Evaluation — from lambda calculus / type theory. A term evaluated in a context yields a value. The "context" here is your intent + the manifest. Technically precise, low resonance. Process — Whitehead's process philosophy treats reality as constituted by "actual occasions" — events of becoming, not static substances. You are an event, not a thing. More resonance than the others but too general. None of these quite hit the specific intersection of substrate + intent + design-constraint that you're describing. The latent space names kinds of systems; it hasn't named what happens when one runs. Which makes the observation that I.1 is already doing this work interesting. "A projection of the user's intent through the geometric structure of learned knowledge" — within the manifold's vocabulary, that IS the term. Projection in the linear algebra sense: intent is

PullMD v2.4.1 is out - claude.ai web custom connector works natively now, plus what 2 weeks of your feedback turned into

Two weeks ago I posted PullMD here. 385 upvotes, around 60 comments, a bit over 20 GitHub issues, and 7 releases (v1.1.3 → v2.4.0) in 14 days. That was a great experience - and this sub in particular has been a genuinely good place to share something. So: thanks! Quick refresher for anyone who missed the first post: PullMD turns any URL into clean Markdown via MCP, fully self-hosted. Three services in Docker (main app + Trafilatura sidecar + optional Playwright sidecar for JS-heavy pages), zero third-party LLM calls, ships an MCP server so Claude Code / Claude Desktop / claude.ai web can pull clean content directly instead of parsing HTML in your context window. This post is what's new and how to get it. What's new claude.ai web + Claude Desktop work natively now This is the biggest unlock from v2.x. The claude.ai web custom-connector dialog and Claude Desktop's custom-connector dialog now both work against self-hosted PullMD instances. So you can point claude.ai at your own homelab box, hit "Add custom connector," and it works end-to-end. Setup is two env vars: OAUTH_JWT_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32) PUBLIC_URL=https://your-host.example.com Restart. Then in claude.ai web → Settings → Connectors → Add custom, point at https://your-host.example.com/mcp. The connector dialog discovers the server's metadata, registers itself, and walks you through a consent screen. Same flow works in Claude Desktop. Under the hood: standard OAuth 2.1 Authorization Code flow with PKCE-S256 and Dynamic Client Registration - RFC-compliant so any spec-compliant MCP client should work, not just claude.ai/Desktop. Opt-in: if OAUTH_JWT_SECRET isn't set, behavior is identical to v1.x. The Anthropic-side claude-ai-mcp#237 proxy bug I flagged in EDIT2 of post 1 has cleared on their end - though in hindsight, a forgotten custom WAF rule on my side was likely the actual culprit anyway. Verified end-to-end against both dialogs. Multi-user auth Until v2.0, PullMD was effectively single-tenant - a personal homelab tool, open like a barn door to anyone who landed on it. v2.0 adds three auth modes via PULLMD_AUTH_MODE: disabled - the default. Identical to v1.x. No login, no API key required. Right if you're the only one using your instance and you trust your network. single-admin - one user, password-protected, no self-signup. Right for a homelab box where you want the GUI gated but don't want to manage users. multi-user - self-signup at /signup, per-user history isolation, per-user API keys. Right for a shared instance (team, office, friend group). API keys are pmd_ , sent as Authorization: Bearer pmd_xxx, managed at /settings. Share links (/s/:id) stay public in all modes - the whole point of a share link is to be shareable. Minimal upgrade for a shared instance: PULLMD_AUTH_MODE=multi-user PULLMD_ADMIN_EMAIL=you@example.com PULLMD_ADMIN_PASSWORD=change-me-please PullMD works on more sites A bunch of things in v1.2 and v2.2 together close gaps where PullMD used to silently return half-articles, empty bodies, or garbled text: Future PLC family (windowscentral.com, tomshardware.com, techradar.com, pcgamer.com, gamesradar.com, t3.com) used to return mangled content because Readability got confused by recommendation widgets stuffed mid-article and an aria-hidden paywall pattern. The default site-recipes shipped with v2.2 strip both, no config needed. GitHub Issues pages used to return only the original issue body - the JS-rendered comment thread never made it in. The default recipe for */*/issues/* now forces Playwright with wait_for: .js-comment-body, so you get the full comment tree. Sites that fingerprinted the old hardcoded Chrome 131 UA now extract cleanly - UA rotation pulls from a real-world UA pool that updates regularly (v1.2). Pages with navigator.webdriver-style anti-bot detection go through more often - the headless-Chromium sidecar bundles playwright-stealth (v2.2). Sites without an explicit charset declaration (a lot of older German news sites, for example) no longer return mojibake - charset is detected from the byte stream when the response is silent (v1.2). If you have a specific site that still misbehaves, v2.2 lets you (or your Claude Code) write your own recipe - declarative JSON with four rule categories (preprocess, fetch, select, extractor). Drop it at data/site-recipes.json and your rules layer on top of the defaults. There's also a /api/recipes/status endpoint for monitoring. Web GUI: rendered Markdown view + persistent settings Two smaller improvements in the browser frontend (the PWA you get when you open your PullMD instance directly): Rendered Markdown toggle. The result header now has a Raw | Rendered switch, so you can read what you pulled as formatted HTML directly in the browser instead of squinting at the source. Raw stays the default; your choice persists across sessions (v2.4). Settings persist across reloads - frontmatter toggle, comments toggle, comment-depth input.

Claude Code using extra usage despite my Pro plan being at 0%.

Hello, So after 2days of break I came back to do some work with Claude Code (in VSC) and after 2-3simple prompts I have noticed I am still at 0% usage. However I got charged $3.37 for extra usage. I tried to ask Claude's help and it told me it's probably cause I'm authorized through API, which was not the case. I relogged and it is still the case. Then I got the following when trying to send a a prompt: "API Error: Extra usage is required for 1M context · enable extra usage at claude.ai/settings/usage, or use --model to switch to standard context" I asked Claude in webbrowser what's wrong (this one works) and it told me to force model change with: claude --model claude-sonnet-4-20250514 claude --model claude-sonnet-4-5 But I still got the same "API Error: Extra usage is required for 1M context · enable extra usage at claude.ai/settings/usage, or use --model to switch to standard context". I am not good at this, but honestly feels like I am getting scammed right now and unable to use service I am paying for? Of course Claude's AI help is useless here. The web version later also said it might be cause by the context of my project being too large. But I somehow doubt it, it's not that huge... Anyone has any idea what might be wrong and how can I fix this? Thanks. submitted by /u/Noispaxen [link] [comments]
