Wavelet-based multi-resolution context management for LLMs via MCP provides a zoomable view of code files. It uses a structural signal, Ricker wavelet transform, and multi-scale peaks to identify important structural transitions. The tool supports various programming languages and offers features like finding structural boundaries, comparing revisions, and analyzing code complexity.
I’ve been reading multi-agent systems papers for weeks trying to figure out where the field actually is, and the honest answer is that it moves fast enough that any single paper is a snapshot, not ...

The code itself is problematic, with a monolithic main form, global state, and confusing file structures. Despite the challenges, Greta is happy with the team culture and is actively working on a .NET replacement.

This is a follow-up to my prior post: "AI is the future of accessibility". There are market changes that will be materializing in the coming years that will be hugely impactful for all white collar jobs. Some say that time period is 3-5 years, others say it is more like a decade. Regardless of timeline,
