    Looks cool, but the readme is AI-generated. Absent throwing my own Fable/Astra at this and hoping it finds any bugs, how does one decide whether to trust AI-assisted software these days?

      We used to say, use an open source product and inspect and compile it yourself.

      Now endless frameworks and everything make that impossible. So the next step is probably to describe the thing you want to your own AI, in plain English, and have it code it itself.

      Of course that will only work until we start using frameworks and everything…sigh.

        FWIW, I checked and this app uses zero frameworks.

        So it can be easily inspected, checked, verified.
