where are the MCP settings in Antigravity?

yeah I also cannot get Vim to work in Antigravity?

josvdweston Show HN: I scraped 3B Goodreads reviews to train a better recommendation model

Super cool tool!

Feature request: Be able to import all my goodreads books, unread as well. Not only 64. Most of the recommendations were already on my shelf.

josvdweston Claude Memory

Anyone know if you could transfer/sync memories between claude and chatgpt?

josvdweston Live Stream from the Namib Desert

Wonder how many South African's instinctively also clicked into this. :)

josvdweston Scientists are discovering a powerful new way to prevent cancer

Is this related to chronic inflammation from glucose spikes?

josvdweston Managing context on the Claude Developer Platform

I don't think cline ever had to do much context management, which is why i prefer them over cursor. Cline is similar to claude code, but without the vendor lock in.

josvdweston Managing context on the Claude Developer Platform

I think the main issue with removing certain previous responses from context would be that you no longer hit the cache for a large part of your chat history, which makes responses much more expensive and slow.

Its faster and cheaper (in most cases) to leave the history as is and hit the cache.

josvdweston OpenAI's H1 2025: $4.3B in income, $13.5B in loss

Pretty sure the reason they don't have a paid tier is because engagement (and results) is better when you include ads. Like Facebook found in the early days

josvdweston Claude now has access to a server-side container environment

Anyone know if this can write scripts or any text file to your device?

josvdweston Lessons learned from buying an open source repo

Thanks a bunch for the insights and feedback!

1. If you're willing to share your Unity MCP project upgrades, I'd love to check it out and perhaps merge into our project. I couldn't find it in your Github.

2. With "Manus for Unity" do you mean an AI tool that does tasks for you in the background? like Codex or Cursor Background Tasks?

2. We've got a couple of companies similar to those you've mentioned using the Coplay product, but they mainly use the Record & Replay feature for liveops pipelines. https://youtu.be/Ia6o4ylI41I

josvdweston Unity MCP is being maintained by Coplay

One of the Coplay Co-Founders here! happy to answer any questions.

Note: the Unity MCP will remain open source indefinitely.

To clarify, the Unity MCP will remain open source forever.

josvdweston Data on AI-related Show HN posts

Any tips on how to consume hackaday.com? It doesn't seem as intuitive as hackernews

josvdweston Show HN: I AI-coded a tower defense game and documented the whole process

Such a cool game! Exactly the simple TD game I've been craving for a while.

If you ever want to build this out in Unity, you should try https://www.coplay.dev/ for the AI copilot

Thanks for the game!

Wonder when Anthropic will IPO. I have a feeling they will win the foundation model race.

josvdweston A Brief History of Cursor's Tab-Completion

sorry, we updated the site and broke a few things, but it's back now.

josvdweston Cline is quietly eating Cursor's lunch and changing how we vibe code

Yes, but Cursor usually doesn't solve the tasks I have

josvdweston Cline is quietly eating Cursor's lunch and changing how we vibe code

Yes Cline is more reflective of the actual price of inference from frontier models. It's not realistic to offer 500 requests at $20/month without severely limiting what these models can do.

People who have become adamant Cline users over a significantly cheaper option have found the ROI of a higher performing AI coding tool far outweighs the inference costs. Even $500/month is negligible if it can 5x (or more) the output of a high-salary engineer.

josvdweston Cline is quietly eating Cursor's lunch and changing how we vibe code

Mine ranges around $2-20 per day depending on how much I use it and how complex the task and size of the project

josvdweston How Cline Quietly Changed The Game For Code Copilots

Very true! but sometimes the $0.04 and 25 tool calls, cannot get you to the right solution no matter how many times you re-prompt. And that's where Cline has been better for me.

It's almost like hiring. Would you pay a premium for the very best dev, or would you pay less for an average dev. :)

josvdweston Migrating away from Rust

I wonder what the dev speed-up would have been if they used Unity with Coplay

How often do whale collisions happen?

josvdweston MCP vs. API Explained

I've found it useful for controlling Unity from within Cursor while doing game development.

josvdweston MCP vs. API Explained

I guess if someone like Anthropic builds a proper registry, then the user wouldn't have to decide and the AI can decide itself?

josvdweston Genie 2: A large-scale foundation world model

I understand the value of infinite NPC dialogues and story arcs, but why do we need live scene generation? Don't we already get that with procedural generation?

Would love stem cells for gum recovery!

josvdweston Phind-405B and faster, high quality AI answers for everyone

"A key issue with AI-powered search is that it is just too slow compared to classic Google. Even if it generates a better answer, the added latency is discouraging."

Is this true? I feel like most complaints I have and hear about is how inaccurate some of the AI results are. I.e. the mistakes it confidently makes when helping you code.
