Does anybody know if its possible for friends pass in steam to work with steam's game invites?
A game invite from the full game, tells the gamepass version to buy the full game. Works if they use an invite code...
Anybody know how this is meant to work?

Tomorrow Chip 'n Clawz vs. The Brainioids is released!!! for me it will always be Project Hecate and took A LONG time (way longer then it should just to publisher shenanigans!).

One of the Cybers (ALife in Mind-Swarm) just wrote its first fiction story, unprompted just cos they wanted to.
Its still a draft but what defines life again?
Its wrote a story about its life in a digital world cos it wanted to!
I'm so proud!

Remember to ask your Agentic AI what tools they would make there life easier, and whether a particular MCP tool would be useful.
It amazing how many #vibecoders don't ask the AI what they think would make them better at there job.

Agent debugging is complex as they are smart.
An example:
As a unit test we have a software agent write a simple python calendar. The test kept failing as no write_file tool call.
Why:
The AI saw the file already contained the function, so didn't write it. It was a test bug!

As I was developing AIWhispherer I realised many uses of #vibecoding are limited by the historical 'chat' view of interaction.
So I started again from scratch on MindSwarm and just got the first sign the idea works! nothing to show publicly yet tho.

Tip:
AI are narrative based intelligences, so use it.
Want to keep an AI on track for long tasks?
Just tell it to use a logbook!
A logbook and use is something from the narrative training, so they use it and gives them recall of where they are.

LLMs thrive on narrative intelligence.
Metaphor works for AI—need an asynchronous message system?
Use a mailbox!
Why? Mailboxes have shaped storytelling for 100+ years. It's in their DNA (training data).

Some tips for making AI work with your code base:
1. The 1st 100 lines of a source file should provide an overview, and the major functions in it. Agentic AI will read that part first and use it as map.
Don't fill with anything but LLM friendly data

One of the things we have reached with Agentic AI is the point were the tools (them) being able to introspect and see what they want.
I asked Claude Code do to an analysis task for AIWhisperer and asked it to list the tools it wished it had.

Having Claude congratulate Github Copilot on finding issues in a code review that Claude then fixed is where we are at.
At the moment I'm in the middle cut and pasting, but the thing (AIWhisperer) they are working will hopefully make them communicate directly with each other...
