I'm building a website that allows friends to write branching fiction novels together, and another website that allows people to argue and conclude together using first-principles thinking. I've abandoned a project that allows people to register percentage certainty of sports outcomes to improve their calibration - it wasn't fun enough for the users. A few other things besides. I recently wrote a gpl TUI to edit dags here: https://github.com/tunesmith/dagim - that one as something of an experiment since it's in a language I don't know, that one took 3-4 days of steady prompting.

Very interesting, thanks for your reply. I don't have much domain knowledge with your sorts of project so I don't have an intuition on how well it would go with coding agents. I have done quite a lot of programming with graphs, but I don't understand the motivation of the tool you linked. From the video included in the repo I can see an example for cooking, but from my own experience I can hold this size of a graph well enough in my head to make optimal decisions in real time. And for bigger graphs I never had to create them by hand, but rather from datasets and then make adjustments to the graph with some heuristics depending on the problem. I don't understand the use case, at least for myself.
