Commentary: The phone's eighth year of software support isn't just a kindness. More people all over the world are using older iPhone models.

There are many smart rings on the market, but none come close to this one.

tl;dr FOSS is the biggest threat to the largest new economic sector, so everything that economic sector does should be viewed through the lens of trying to kill it.

I occasionally see articles and sentiments along the lines of, Anthropic is or is not, "scare mongering to boost the perceived cultural impact of their AI/ML tools; a sort of underhanded advertisement".

If your job is to defend Anthropic online, it's a good angle to fight from. It's a viral subject with no practical outcomes; the sort of thing that can cognitively DDoS your detractors for days.

Personally, I think Anthropic is scare mongering in order to kill their biggest competitor - free and open source ML. These companies, including Nvidia, OpenAI, Microsoft, and Apple, have invested untold billions into their own little ML ecosystems, as a loss leader, to get people and organizations emotionally dependent on this new technology, and eventually they are going to want ROI for that. The most likely obstacle to that is free and open models. Free and open training data and architecture makes the trillions or whatever previously pumped into the market obsolete. Out of all of the new technologies I've seen over the past couple decades, machine learning has the largest chance of success as a component of the free software ecosystem by a mile. How could any of these new trillionaires allow this to be?

These old ways are too heavy. Full self browsing doesn’t require Elon Musk vision processing.

It just requires Agentish - the agent’s native tongue, the LLM’s lingua franca - frickin plain text.

And honesty. About what it can do (everything on the web, besides stuff only you can do), and what it can’t do, but you can: MFA, captcha, login.

An agent skill with smart guardrails and a well designed Unix philosophy CLI tool is enough to power any task on the web.

You can try it too. Here’s some things I’ve thrown at it and it’s done:

- find at least 100 relevant tweets and craft apt replies that promote WebCLI to people experiencing the pain it solves Grok Build with Composer 2.5 Fast

- Compare flights from SFO to DC mid afternoon across a couple of providers like Google flights and kayak, etc.. Find the cheapest one with no stops. Fill in my details and book it but stop at payment. Codex 5.5 high

- Find some fun Lego products across amazon Walmart Alibaba and lego.com and find the coolest set or large quantity of blocks at the best price and take it all the way to checkout filling in details. Claude Sonnet 4.6

And many more. The agent’s always figure it out. No screenshots no selectors, just raw text and numbered references for actions with honest in validation and a bunch of useful surface.

The core loop is a simple OODA loop:

web inspect # agent observes and orients web do # agent decides and acts Repeat. Forever. That gets everything done. The tool is small enough, and transparent enough, and agents are smart enough, and persistent enough that they always figure it out.

It’s a new era of web task driving with intelligence. No more playwrights and puppets, no more robotic “auto-mation” beep boop. WebCLI is web improvisation, powered by agents’ intelligence.

I want to keep building technology for agency. Imagine if you tried this tool and it saved you time and drudgery. Try it and then pay because it’s valuable. You get a free, fully functional five day trial per email domain, with just email. Https://webcli.sh

Contact me if you have ideas to use it at scale
