We live in crazy times. I wanted to add a PID to the list for my personal use and since I use Rust way more than Go, I decided to one-shot one app, and Codex indeed one shotted it, wow.

You can add PID with the c-flag, e.g.

sonar list -c port,process,pid,type,url,container

or just show all columns:

sonar list --all-columns

But yeah, it's quite cool. I believe the future lies in software distillation, so cool to see it happen on my own project :D

I did this more as an experiment but man it sucks, doesn't it?
What sucks? Software distillation? :)
Yes, instead of everybody contributing to one central codebase, we now have the same concept being rewritten a thousand times :-)
Ahhh yes sure, but not too worried about that i think. Its not so difficult to create, but to innovate and maintain requires participation. It can be the bulk of the job. But most def its sad if people leave their good ideas in a fork of their own. But also great that you can reproduce a good idea thats been conflated with wayy too much crap, because a product lost site of ehat their value proposition was
I'm tempted to one-shot this into a series of FISH abbreviations.

And I would want someone to use that to one-shot a python implementation. And on and on like a game of telephone until the context degrades so far that it becomes an entirely different program.
