mdnb is moving so fast that changes can be hard to follow Here's the changelog from the past week: - built-in Git sync with GitHub sign-in - added an integrated terminal - improved folder navigation and editor formatting tools - major performance gains for startup and large note libraries
I wrote some thoughts on memory in coding agents, a surprisingly neglected area for LLM memory? (Zero AI was used to write the thoughts)
It's been a lot of fun building on automerge from @inkandswitch.com
Nico Ritschel@nicoritschel.com · 6mo agoReal time collaboration prototype for mdnb
I built a free, 100% native (for macOS) markdown editor. You can download it here
mdnb — A Markdown Notebook for macOS
A native macOS notebook app. Your notes are plain Markdown files on disk, yours forever. Free.

I've been using Claude Code since May & use Codex actively. Here's some of my thoughts on software engineering with AI

I forked everyone's favorite terminal, Ghostty, and added git worktree support so to better manage parallel AI agents
ghostree — Worktree-Aware Terminal for Ghostty
Worktree-aware terminal management for Ghostty. Switch branches, manage worktrees, and keep your terminal sessions organized.

Another day, another release. pynb.app just got native connectivity for Postgres, Snowflake, Bigquery, SQLite & Flight SQL via ADBC (so it's fast and memory efficient)
You can try this out now!
pynb — Python Notebooks Without the Fuss
Python notebooks without the fuss. Fast, local notebooks for data science and machine learning. Privacy-first.

Nico Ritschel@nicoritschel.com · 7mo agoI built an alternative Jupyter frontend as a native Mac app. It's also reactive (no weird state issues), supports SQL as first class, has autocomplete, is uv-native amd works with agents (like an *existing* ChatGPT subscription that you already pay for)
I was wondering where all the stars were coming from thanks for the shoutout!
Orhun Parmaksız@orhun.dev · 7mo agoWow this is going to be useful to debug past AI sessions 🔍 🧠 memex — Transcript search TUI for Claude & Codex sessions ⚡ Supports BM25 + optional embeddings, hybrid search and resuming chats 🦀 Written in Rust & built with @ratatui.rs ⭐ GitHub: github.com/nicosuave/me... #rustlang #ratatui #tui

Hi data friends that manage data pipelines & like Apache Iceberg— please take a look at my dlt destination for Iceberg that supports REST catalogs. Got some updates so it has full parity with the paid dlthub connector!

I've been working on a universal metrics layer for @sidequery.dev the past few months that works with many different semantic layer formats. I built a demo so you can try it out. Runs 100% in the browser (via DuckDB & Pyodide). Warning large download !

Now includes an instructions improver skill that lets your agent of choice search through your past transcripts to correct common failures & reinforce wins
Nico Ritschel@nicoritschel.com · 7mo agoThe other is a tool called memex that indexes chat transcripts locally and provides a search function, both in CLI form for agents and as a TUI for humans. My favorite part: makes it super easy to find and resume a long lost session.
Lots of improvements to this one... dark mode, gist backend, homebrew support for installation. brew install nicosuave/tap/agentexport
Nico Ritschel@nicoritschel.com · 7mo agoI built a few tools to make working with Claude Code / Codex CLI easier First up is agentexports.com which lets you publish transcripts to the web. Content is end to end encrypted (I can't even read it) and you can self host on Cloudflare if preferred.

I find Claude Code pretty effective to help with data analysis. But it's not easy for everyone to setup and manage & has no collaborative capabilities. So I built it into a Slack app.
AI Agents for Data in Slack, ChatGPT & Claude
Connect Snowflake, BigQuery, Postgres, Google Sheets and more.

Been busy lately; I built a DuckDB extension that embeds Claude Code inside DuckDB

Agents used to be an enterprise feature. Even today, it's not uncommon for some tools to charge an extra monthly fee for AI add ons. But savvy users expect natural language interfaces as a default, no...

Crazy this account / PDS still runs on a free tier Oracle Cloud server
I've been working on a universal semantic layer. It's still a bit early but I'm really excited about its future. Will also be tightly woven into @sidequery.dev Compatible with definitions from Cube, MetricFlow (dbt), LookML (Looker), Hex, Rill, Superset, Omni & there's a native definition format.
