From the hero image:

What on earth does this mean?

A bunch of sections of the README are nonsensical as well. I'll just file this under "magical token-saving project #481 of 2026 that probably performs worse than the harness" for now.

Feels like it to me too. Not only is it clearly extremely vibecoded, but the human author seems to have failed at (or not tried) restraining common agent impulses such as writing huge, sprawling stream-of-artificial-consciousness "documentation" which is of no use for humans, and questionable use for the agents themselves.

My policy is that if someone doesn't understand the tool they've vibe-coded well enough to make the documentation coherent, they don't actually use it, and so I probably shouldn't use it either.

Opus can't speak coherent English anymore. I dunno what happened, but it's not speaking a language humans can understand. It uses unusual shorthand and slang, which it seems to use pretty consistently, so it's probably possible to learn its particular dialect. But, I'd rather it speak a language I already know.

Readme is very AI.

Still will see what inspiration I can take from this. I’ve seen improvements from my own rudimentary repo overview tool

Is at okay to flag things if they just feel like end-to-end slop? If this was a comment, I'd down-vote it.
