It was a scheduled task in my Whatsapp agent⦠(on agent-server, but the front is not) and was made by Codex App w/ GPT-Astra.., but this makes me think: actually a conversation with Deepseek-v4-flash is extremely cheap. Couldn't we actually consider doing it in some particular tasks?
The need here is somewhat āagent shapedā as my LLM would say: it has to run some AppleScript and javascript through a local Chrome to figure out if its Slack account was beeped. I honestly donāt know what it's doing š
Since this little guy is an agent, it could also reopen a closed Chrome; or deal with some surprises that would prevent a simple deterministic script from working.
I mean, I was peeved at Astra here, but maybe this makes sense: š”
⢠the cheap agent does the checks it's told to do
⢠if blocked, it can help itself
⢠if Slack has something interesting, it can start a conversation with a SOTA profile
⢠(oh, or switch its own)
