Lodestar – Easier Communication with Agents

As I leverage coding agents to tackle more complex tasks, I wanted better tools for a few specific things that I spend a lot of my energy on:

- Reading long agent proposals - Aligning agent's mental model with mine - Keeping several fronts of explorations and making sure they stay coherent - Resolving tensions across tasks or branches of ideas - Cross-pollinate good ideas across tasks

And Lodestar is an attempt to reduce the cognitive burden for those efforts.

Features:

- Inline graphs and annotations for complex ideas from agents

- Focused "read mode" for messages and docs

- Inline comments on messages, graphs, docs, html previews

- Semantic search across sessions & docs for quick retrieval

- Graph presentation of topic relationship across sessions

- Cross-session and cross-harness messaging for agent coordination

- Quick access to recent screenshots when writing a message

- Drag and drop sessions for quick reference when writing a message

And more.

Please give it a try. Let me know if you like it or hate it.
