I’m not a developer. I just got basic coding knowledge. I can read simple code. I recently created a plugin , relying mostly on Gemini free. 95% of the code was AI-generated. While the plugin definitely works, and the interface and admin experience are quite alright, I have legitimate concerns abou…

[image] Canapin: I’m curious about how better an AI-generated Discourse plugin code would be if the AI were aware of the Discourse ecosystem. I’ve found that it’s significantly better to work with AI on Discourse if it has examples to work from, and Claude Code is specifically good at this (G…

I think I was mistaken about the price. The free/pro/max plans are for using Gemini through their web interface. ( https://claude.com/pricing ). The API price is token-based ( https://claude.com/pricing#api) ; there are no monthly subscriptions for using their API, right? If using AI in, let’s say, VSC…

This past week I spent some time trying to write a Discourse plugin using ask.discourse. I was amazed how I could describe the function of the plugin I wished to create and it spit out lots of tips and code snippets, some of which actually ran. I’m a hobbyist programmer. Along side my Discourse ins…

I wrote a plugin for my Discourse page with Antigravity that displays the most popular anime series. I also created a watchlist. Sometimes it glitches and you have to make a lot of corrections, but I’m reasonably satisfied.

I got it to work on VSCode with a Pro plan (20$). I find the consumption fair. 3h of prompts got me to this: [image] So far, results were not great. :thinking: What could be interesting is describing what should be configured, or what should be told to Claude when creating a plugin or theme comp…

I looked at https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/AI-AGENTS.md . I have questions! NEVER store find() results - causes stale element references after re-renders ALWAYS lint any changes you make Do AIs understand the all-uppercase emphasis? Would it act differently if written “Neve…

I spent the day finding my bearings with Claude :heart_eyes: (divorced from ChatGPT) and am looking forward to having a stab at playing around with Claude Code to at the minimum get some prototyping done or scratch my Discourse itches! If there are skills lying in wait somewhere I’ll be happy to try…
