- These are lovely. I miss some of that ASCII art quirkiness, so I added it to my blogging platform (as ASCII art banners) https://lmno.lol
- https://LMNO.lol Drag and drop your markdown to the web and get a blog.
Also because the web/blogs lost itself in tracking, bloat, paywalls... and I miss some of the quirkiness.
My blog runs on it: https://xenodium.com

- I’m an Emacs enthusiast and also build iOS apps powered by org markup.
The more I used my apps, the more I wanted their UX optimised for mobile. This often means completely rethinking the Emacs experience when bringing to mobile.
This is most obvious in my latest app [1]. Org markup fully fades as implementation details. Of all my apps, this is the one I personally use the most. Proudly, I also started getting non-Emacs users interested in org [2].
Anyway, that’s all to say that as an Emacs fan, I want the full Emacs experience on desktop, but when on iPhone, I want fully optimised mobile UX. No meta anything there ;)

- Ah yes. I find the ⌘ key placement a little more ergonomic/convenient, but at the end of the day, pick whatever works for ya.
Thinking back, I prolly didn't use those two commands often enough to internalize M-| or M-% bindings, so the system-level handling didn't bother me. While I do replace things all the time, I typically use multiple cursors (I do use bindings for that). If I need querying, I just type `M-x que RET` which gets picked up by a completion frameworks (in my case ivy).
Relatedly, I also use Hammerspoon on macOS and set some global key bindings using the ⌥ key.

- > With agent shell it feels so much more integrated and natural.
That's great to hear.
> I wish that agent-shell-sidebar had some screenshots though so I could see what it actually does.
I nudged the package author for a screenshot. Having said that, you can see it in action here: https://github.com/xenodium/agent-shell/pull/55
- It's got some of them already like showing and accepting diffs rendered natively. All edits are committed via Emacs itself and on to open buffers if applicable. TAB navigation. Accepting permission has had a fair amount of iteration to smoothen the experience. It's been quite a bit of work to get here. There are obviously more feature to come. Please file feature requests if you find anything missing and of course, sponsor the project if you truly want it to be sustainable and move forward.
- > but I don't like the header added on the top of the buffer
Please file a feature request, so we can make the graphical header optional: https://github.com/xenodium/agent-shell/issues
- Hey I know where that’s from!
As an Emacs user, his video was very funny https://youtu.be/urcL86UpqZc?si=Jhqiy1yCXDGHoIoS
- agent-shell: A single native Emacs experience to interact with different AI agents powered by ACP (Agent Client Protocol) https://agentclientprotocol.com
So far, agent-shell can interact with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, and Goose, but can technically work with any ACP-powered agent.
ps. agent-shell needs more sponsors to become sustainable https://github.com/sponsors/xenodium
Even Emacs nuts like me can use agents natively from our beloved editor ;) https://xenodium.com/agent-shell-0-25-updates
