The AI coding landscape is moving fast. Agents that can genuinely reason, write, and iterate on code are here, and they’re getting dramatically better every few months. The question for us as Julia users is: how do we connect all of that to the ecosystem we’ve built? [image] GitHub …

[image] kristoffer.carlsson: Is that possible in Kaimon? And so much more … This is KaimonSlate which builds on top of Kaimon, it will be out in a day or two. But the REPL based stuff has been working for a while: [image]

[image] kahliburke: ZMQ also delivers on this, but I’m not pushing it to it limits. I use per-worker sockets with IOUring/kqueue for rapid copying, which I think is probably the fastest viable approach I’m aware of short of using a shared memory map.

[image] tecosaur: I use per-worker sockets with IOUring/kqueue for rapid copying, PRs welcome if you’d like to offer it as a ZMQ alternative. :slight_smile:

I like the collaborative spirit, but I’m rather settled on my own thing :slight_smile:

Fair, ZMQ does what I need it to do and has the messaging patterns which support the use cases. And being able to switch seamlessly between ICP and TCP is quite powerful.

It makes sense: I think in the end we’re making distinct but overlapping tools. Kaimon is clearly intended to be an all-in-one interface to Julia for LLMs, while I’ve got a Julia session manager that can be handed to an LLM if you want to use it that way. You’ve been building out a whole bunch of f…

How can I update from Kaimon 1.x? Can I just do: ]app add Kaimon Or are there other/better ways to update?

Yes, some variation on that. You should get [image] ufechner7: Can I just do: ]app add Kaimon Yes, ideally it should be that easy. Depending on how you had set up your packages and environments, it’s possible that there might be some variation like removing the dependency from a specific p…

OK, I had to remove all my Kaimon logic from my run_julia script. Question: Is Kaimon able to use a custom system image? I know, not so important as long as Kaimon can keep a session open, but sometimes you also have to restart a session.

[image] ufechner7: OK, I had to remove all my Kaimon logic from my run_julia script. This was a custom script? Yeah it tries to manage a little block in the global startup.jl, it’s just a few lines so you could always use the option under config (g key)to write it and see what’s there (it’s b…
