alt Hacker NewsLooks pretty cool, although I'm not sure I see the advantage over a skill using something like a private git repo / file store / server?
So far, I've used that, a UNIX-socket inspired approach to push/pull with a remote git (hosted on my server) that the branches/files can be tossed to, and pulled via other agent. Skill instructs them to make a copy-paste ready instruction for the other prompt.
Why'd Jotbus be worth the overhead?
Thanks for the comment!
Sounds like your setup achieves basically the same thing as Jotbus. If you've already got repo/server/skills wired up for this, Jotbus probably wouldn't buy you much.
I had basically 2 motivations for building it:
- I was frequently spinning up places to dump stuff for people/agents. I wanted to make it simple across environments, and have no infra or glue to manage.
- a lot of what I pass around is mid-work/transient - logs, partial implementations, screenshots, etc. Not ready for a commit, don't necessarily want it in git history. Wanted to make it easy to hand off and keep going.
So it's not exactly a novel primitive, it's just a tool to make it quicker/easier.
