Create a hook that would ask Claude Code to evaluate all skills in the project and decide which are applicable to the current task at hand. It is easy and works very well.
I can’t thank you enough for course correcting me here, this is exactly what I should have been doing. I did some reading and I clearly wasn’t using any of the features correctly or efficiently.
My Claude.md was nearly 1,900 lines. It’s down to 150 lines now with Skills fully built out for the agents, and a hook to steer the ship. It’s all working perfectly now.
Now that it’s set up it feels obvious, but I agree nowhere was this clear to me that this is how skills, hooks, and subagents were intended to be configured.
I was so much more productive today and used far less tokens. Thank you again!
The position of Europe vs USA is analogous to Greek States vs Roman Republic. Good art and lifestyle but nothing in terms of military and economic power.
When Roman Republic got more authoritarian (transforming to Roman Empire) - Greek states had lost the remnants of its independence.
Being a satellite state works that way.
The issue is that in terms of military and economic power EU used to be much stronger 20 years ago and that strength have been deliberately wasted by current generation of politicians still in power.
Political class in Europe made multiple wrong choices in the last years despite warnings.
The economic power of the EU >> military power of EU. If it's combined with Canada, Korea and Japan, it's pretty significant and basically self-sufficient for food and materials.
> Good art and lifestyle but nothing in terms of military and economic power.
... I mean, the context is the Anti-Coercion Instrument. That is essentially economic power weaponised; in the context of EU vs US it's a mutually assured destruction option.
(Creating an economic doomsday machine is a _very_ EU solution.)
SWIFT sits in Belgium, why would anyone in Europe need to switch away from it? Is the US able to handle their (international) financial transactions without access to SWIFT?
The financial market being significantly smaller, sure, but will it stay like that?
> SWIFT’s data centers, located in the United States, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, act as the network’s central hubs, processing and routing messages across the network. The centralization at these data centers is critical for swift (no pun intended) and secure data transmission. These data centers are designed with redundancy and failover capabilities, so if one center is disrupted, the others take over, ensuring no interruptions to the SWIFT service.
To me, this sounds like SWIFT would posibly be split into 3-parts, without any redundancy. A US and a EU datacenter handling "local" business, with Switzerland possibly be able to interact with either?
The problem is that Gemini CLI simply doesn’t work. Beside simplest of tasks like creating new release it is useless as coding assistant. Doesn’t have a plan mode, jumps right into coding and then gets stuck in the middle of spaghetti code.
Gemini models are actually pretty capable but Gemini CLI tooling makes them dumb and useless. Google is simply months behind Anthropic and OpenAI in this space!
I remember another story about 30-something outsider coming to large city with a radical message that upper-class Jews should stop accumulating wealth because it makes lower classes dispossessed.
