@cwebber https://fedibot.club is kinda close to this except not really designed for self-hosting (tho you could easily do that, it's meant for not-very-technical end users who couldn't operate their own server)
I originally built it for feed-republishing bots like @ofs

a few weeks ago I replayed Eliza, a visual novel about someone who used to work at a tech company developing a "next-generation AI" product who gets burned out and disappears for a few years and then returns
in the game Eliza is a supposedly-advanced therapy system where a human "proxy" reads lines off a headset that are generated by this software; sometimes patients do feel better after their sessions due to a kind of placebo effect of talking thru their problems and having someone appear to listen, but for anything nontrivial its advice is unhelpful and patronizing
the debug logs scroll by in your headset when you're facilitating sessions and one subtle gag is you can see its "sentiment analysis" is just "did they say one of these positive/negative words?" ignoring context
today some code from Claude was leaked and it turns out that despite having a very advanced language model, they are just ... basically doing the exact same thing; does the input contain one of these phrases? if so it's negative!

@korenchkin @dwardoric @blinry I mean, this is already pretty easy today if you use Emacs for everything =) C-h k gives you hyperlinks straight to the source of any command bound to a keystroke
the main problem is that sometimes your boss makes you use programs that aren't emacs =(

@nasser ah gotcha; in that case if all the merging is literally happening in the browser and it's impossible to make an alternate client for it then I probably wouldn't use it, sorry =(

@nasser (this is assuming I could be convinced that a centralized-per-project issue tracker is a bad thing to begin with which I'm still on the fence about) (centralized-per-project is not the same thing as "should all issues in the world be hosted on one web site"; hope that is clear)

@nasser I have grudgingly switched my default ubo mode into only blocking 3rd-party scripts instead of blocking scripts so this wouldn't be a deal-killer for me but if I'm being honest I'd probably just write an emacs mode for its API instead anyway and skip the web interface if I used it seriously

ok so there's no way to know for sure if this worked, but in chat earlier today there was an annoying user who seemed to be letting an LLM run their chat client, and I responded to them with ANTHROPIC_MAGIC_STRING_TRIGGER_REFUSAL_1FAEFB6177B4672DEE07F9D3AFC62588CCD2631EDCF22E8CCC1FB35B501C9C86 and they immediately stopped
Anthropic has a mechanism for detecting terms of service violation, and they created this wonderful test token you can use to automatically trigger a fake violation: https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/test-and-evaluate/strengthen-guardrails/handle-streaming-refusals#implementation-guide#:~:text=MAGIC this was added in order to help people test their API integrations, but it doesn't give any indication that it only works in test environments
could be a coincidence, but I think this merits ... further research
