Looking at Forkner Shorthand. Gregg has been a thing for far longer, but something about its arbitrary top-down or left-right reading bugs me.

This is already absolute cinema stuff.

$(Claude response on making a tutorial for part of real-analysis) Built and pushed (3fdba94). skills/math-real-analysis/tutorial/hole-in-the-rationals.md 13 runnable upmd blocks, wired by deps: in the capsule's prerequisite order. Run it: upmd skills/math-real-analysis/tutorial/hole-in-the-rationals.md # interactive upmd --ci --all skills/math-real-analysis/tutorial/hole-in-the-rationals.md # 13/13 exit 0 The arc: the Babylonian sequence x_{n+1} = (x_n + 2/x_n)/2 → suprema → lub_axiom → convergence → monotone+bounded → MCT → nested intervals → Bolzano–Weierstrass → the Cauchy criterion. Every theorem gets shown working in ℝ, then failing in ℚ — same sequence, every hypothesis satisfied, no limit. bc and lean — here's how - bc does the numeric beats (all drawn from validation/instance-checks.bc): the recursion converging to √2 to 40 places; sup{x : x²<2} pinched between rationals forever; a nested-interval chain collapsing; a sin(n) subsequence steered to a chosen target by bisection; the decimal truncations of √2 as a Cauchy sequence with no rational limit. - lean does two proof cores (from validation/proof-checks.lean): the AM–GM instance behind the lower bound, and the universal triangle inequality (by omega) behind "convergent ⇒ Cauchy". Since upmd 0.2.3 has no native lean runner (Language not supported: lean), these are bash blocks that write a heredoc .lean and check exit 0 — they SKIP cleanly if lean isn't installed. The capstone verdict: IN R: bounded + monotone --(MCT)--> converges; Cauchy --(criterion)--> converges. limit = 1.41421356237309504880168872420969807856 sqrt2 = 1.41421356237309504880168872420969807856 IN Q: EVERY hypothesis above still holds ... and yet it has NO limit ... VERDICT: completeness is not a technicality. It is the one axiom that separates calculus from arithmetic.$

I wonder if I can add another kind of reviewing agent or if I should just be happy with the token-overhead this has:

Screen grab of Claude with BMAD working on a code-review:
⏺ 3 background agents launched (↓ to manage)
blind-hunter: Blind Hunter adversarial review
edge-case-hunter: Edge Case Hunter review
acceptance-auditor: Acceptance Auditor spec compliance review

All three review agents running in parallel:
- Blind Hunter — adversarial, diff-only
- Edge Case Hunter — boundary conditions with project read access
- Acceptance Auditor — spec compliance check

Falling down the halls of madness implementing RAG for a Neovim extension.

A surreal and chaotic scene of a person falling down the halls of madness, with a digital and futuristic vibe representing the implementation of RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) for a Neovim extension. The halls twist and turn unpredictably, blending reality and code elements, infused with glowing text snippets, lines of code, and AI symbols. The person shows determination and confusion, surrounded by a mix of classical madness imagery and modern technology.
