It’s funny what “tiny” means for different people depending on their background. I expected it to be under an MB as well and was surprised by 6MB.
replyBasically, for me tiny means it fits on a floppy 1.44 HD.
replyNaturally meaningless when people carry around USB sticks that might even hold a 1 TB, but alas.
> Naturally meaningless when people carry around USB sticks
replyDo people do that? I think it was a decade ago, I thought people download from web nowadays.
Pretty much my baseline as well. Good example how experiences shape our thinking.
replyFor comparison, I publish a CLI tool written in Dart, can compile to native anything including Wasm , the Linux binary is around 5MB and it does quite a lot.
replyA typical Go binary would be 2-3 times larger. A typical Node project would easily pull more than 6 MiB of just code, not counting the runtime.
replyI really like the philosophy document! https://github.com/OleksandrChekhovskyi/hax/blob/master/docs...
replyI don’t know if I am ready to use a new tool written in C and using libcurl but I will give it a shot.

replythat's an amazing project! people always say why 6mb vs CC's 250mb even matter when you are calling out to LLMs hosted in the cloud. But... I regularly run hierarchies of agents with say 50-100 on a regular basis. So 650 vs 25050 ... is "can do" vs "cannot"
replyIs that real memory taken? If it's shared code from the same executable surely the multiples are not very relevant?
replythis looks great! what are you using it for? i like the idea of being able to use one of these (sandboxed) within a larger program kind of like how I use LLM's to do small tasks within my apps now but with a few tools (web search). my current way of doing that is like building a mini-harness with a couple tools within the app, but something more drop-in would be better obviously.
replyI was going to ask if there's any plans to integrate something like the fx's ACP server[1] or pi's RPC mode [2].
replyI'm making something like Paseo and hax is very interesting as a Pi replacement.
It looks really nice. Do you have any plan to support Claude subscriptions (pro/max)?
replyTechnically, this would be straightforward. The problem is that Anthropic seems to be really against using Claude subscriptions with anything other than Claude Code - you might even risk your account getting banned for doing so. You could search online for the "openclaw claude banned" for more details on that story.
replyDidn't Anthropic stop allowing it, can only use the subscriptions with first-party tools?
