Do they? I’ve found Clojure-MCP[1] to be very useful. OTOH, I’m not attempting to replace myself, only augment myself.
Thanks for the link! I used to use Clojure a lot professionally, but now just for fun projects, and to occasionally update my old Clojure book. I had bookmarked Clojure-MCP a while ago, but never got back to it but I will give it a try.
I like your phrasing of “OTOH, I’m not attempting to replace myself, only augment myself.” because that is my personal philosophy also.
