S1E8: Show And Tell: Efrit: When Steve Gives Claude Full Access To 50 Years of Emacs Capabilities

For anyone else curious about what a practical loop implementation might look like, Steve Yegge YOLO-bootstrapped his 'Efrit' project using a few lines of Elisp: [LINK] And for more context on Efrit this is a fun watch: "When Steve Gives Claude Full Access To 50 Years of Emacs Capabilities" [VIDEO]

Another everything-is-new-again: [LINK] is Steve Yegge's drive-emacs-with-LLMs (I saw this mentioned via a video link elsewhere: [VIDEO] )

i also thought i can't get used to it, but i can! otherwise, as others have mentioned it, remap the keys! also, you can talk to some LLM about it, if you feel it would be tedious to come up with better bindings. feed in the key bindings from `C-h m` of eshell, enumerate which bindings you want to carry over from traditional shells and instruct it to recommend you binding swapping pairs. i was able to get great results on such niche operations already from anthropic's opus 4.5 models but even grok or deepseek was pretty helpful already last summer. steve yegge's efrit takes this to a whole new level, by letting the LLM interrogate your running Emacs process live for documentation or function source code: [LINK] he demoed it here: [VIDEO]
