About that, mine loves Munetaka Murakami's fight song https://www.yakyu-ouen.net/murakami-munetaka, so I had plenty of chances to memorize the words.

This is lovely too :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSBT4ES9b9U&list=RDLSBT4ES9b...

edit: Thanks for Angine de Poitrine!

Thanks! It’s an undecorated frame. I wanted a “widget” experience of sorts.

My newborn is on board! Nursery rhymes on YT ftw ;)

Glad to hear it worked as advertised! Sorry, not super familiar with evil (on vanilla keys here). Please send a PR if you find out how to configure for evil so we can document in README.

While most IDEs converged to a unified web solution, pockets of devoted users continued to volunteer improvements/integrations for their preferred editors.

During my time there, a relatively small, but fairly active Emacs group, would often share tips, tricks, and elisp integrating the latest internal tools.

Neat! I did the Emacs equivalent https://github.com/xenodium/video-trimmer

From my experience, you kinda get what you ask for. If you don't ask for anything specific, it'll write as it sees fit. The more you involve yourself in the loop, the more you can get it to write according to your expectation. Also helps to give it a style guide of sorts that follows your preferred style.

Resume is supported by agent-shell, but is dependent on agent's to implement the relevant ACP. Do you know if OpenCode's ACP implementation has listing and resuming session support?

Also, you'll need to enable resuming as per post (it's a new feature) https://xenodium.com/agent-shell-0-47-1-updates

I put off adopting popular agents for most of 2025 primarily because there was no agent-agnostic path to first-class Emacs integration. That changed with ACP (https://agentclientprotocol.com), thus I started working on agent-shell.

I'm happy with how the integration is shaping up, enabling me to have my cake and eat it too (Emacs + AI agents).

I wrote an agent-shell post recently with the latest changes https://xenodium.com/agent-shell-0-47-1-updates

I've yet to play with Emacs MCPs thoroughly. Having said that, after initial exposure to agent skills directing agents to just use CLI/emacsclient, I no longer think I need to go deeper into MCP. emacsclient via CLI has been working remarkably well. Did a little video on that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymMlftdGx4I

I like LLMs, but guarantees in LLMs are... you know... not guaranteed ;)

> It's still not crystal clear to me architecturally is going on

[ Emacs ] <-- JSONRPC (stdin/stdout) -> [ Agent subprocess (headless) ]

> I'd love to know how that is wired to the agents; is that input sent over ACP?

Yes. All traffic goes over ACP between Emacs and the agent. You can inspect the traffic using agent-shell itself.

https://github.com/xenodium/agent-shell?tab=readme-ov-file#h...

> Is that just sending to the shell?

The compose buffer is an UX abstraction on top of the agent shell buffer which is a native Emacs buffer, but ultimately all traffic is sent over ACP.

agent-shell's links to blog posts may be of interest https://github.com/xenodium/agent-shell?tab=readme-ov-file#n...

> Like with claude-code-ide you can define custom MCP tools that run Emacs commands.

Should be possible in newer versions of agent-shell (see https://github.com/xenodium/agent-shell/pull/237)

> Keeping your own data as plain text has huge benefits. Having all my chats persistent is good. It's all private.

While agent-shell is much newer than chatgpt-shell, it likely has richer interaction by now (specially the compose interface). I'm veering off topic here... agent-shell now saves all interactions to project/.agent-shell/transcripts as Markdown files. We can totally do org too, but I just haven't gotten to it.

I had been hoarding links/notes to movies/tv shows for some time, saved to a plain text file. Often by sharing links from other apps (ie. Reddit or Letterboxd), paired with hashtags, using an iOS app I built.

Finally extracted the data for these hashtags and fed it to an LLM to organize. I'm happy with the result https://xenodium.com/film-tv-bookmarks-chaos-resolved

For most of 2025, I ignored popular agents because I wanted to stay within my preferred text editor (Emacs). Thanks to ACP (https://agentclientprotocol.com), I no longer live under a rock ;) I built https://github.com/xenodium/agent-shell and now get a native experience. Claude Code works great. If curious what that looks like, I made a video recently https://xenodium.com/bending-emacs-episode-10-agent-shell
