Episode notes
Building A Voice-First Web Inspector
- Jason built Cluso after wanting a point-and-click web inspector that understands voice and context.
- He records clicks with timestamps and source maps so the agent knows exactly which element and source lines are referenced.
Attach Concrete Context To Voice Commands
- Do attach rich context (DOM, source maps, file locations) to voice commands to avoid ambiguity.
- Provide file browsing and numbered selections so voice can pick files and images reliably.
Perceived Instant Edits With Background Verification
- Jason hacks the DOM for instant perceived edits, then patches source code asynchronously with a fast local model.
- This trick preserves responsiveness while background verification prevents breaking changes.
