ScrapChat brings production-grade AI agent local

ScrapChat is a self-hosted AI assistant optimized for high-end local hardware that handles code development, financial analysis, and tool execution without cloud dependencies. It leverages Qwen3.5-35B-A3B and llama.cpp to provide a private, high-performance workstation for power users.

// ANALYSIS

ScrapChat marks the transition of local LLMs from simple chat interfaces to fully integrated, sovereign workstations.

–Leverages the RTX 5090 to run Qwen3.5-35B-A3B with a 131K context window and full GPU offload.
–Offloads financial calculations to local Python environments to ensure data accuracy for E*TRADE portfolios.
–Built-in coding tools feature git safety tiers and test runners to enable autonomous file editing.
–Native rendering for Chart.js and SVG applets provides a rich, interactive UI missing from most local tools.
–Persistent session management allows users to maintain dedicated contexts for coding, trading, and research.

Plannotator 0.19.24 adds Amp support and configurable storage

Plannotator 0.19.24 is a substantial release that expands the tool beyond Claude Code with native Amp support, adds a `PLANNOTATOR_DATA_DIR` override so users can move the default `~/.plannotator` data directory, introduces Auto Mode in the permission selector for newer Claude Code versions, and fixes a Pi approval crash after plan acceptance. The update folds multiple stacked PRs into one release and pushes the project further toward a multi-agent review layer rather than a single-agent hook utility.

He extends the argument to AI-written fiction and the Vatican’s AI encyclical as signs of a broader cultural shift.
