HISE Transformation to the new age

[Christoph Hart]

Alright, I just found out a feature of the CLI I'm using - whenever I said I use Claude Code I was lying. In fact I was using Opencode, which is the same thing but not tied to a certain model provider. Doesn't matter in the long run, but I just found a feature that we can somehow tie into that entire process: you can easily share the entire conversation history with the agent.

Eg, here's an example session of one of the earlier feature requests I added to HISE:

I can imagine that adding this link to a PR will help me track down the steps much better than just reading the final file changes, so for anything that isn't as trivial as this example this might be a very helpful piece of knowledge.

@dannytaurus I haven't touched Claude Code, but is there a similar feature over there in proprietary land?

Which model are you using? I tried to use Claude with it but it seems anthropic are blocking it.

[Christoph Hart]

@David-Healey switched between all of the anthropic ones. I started using them through OpenRouter with the API key, but I blew through about 80USD worth of tokens within 2-3 hours, then went my way up the Claude subscription ladder up to the 200USD Claude Max subscription. It hasn't complained once about usage through a 3rd party client, but I also saw the headlines a few weeks back so maybe they just rolled this back to prevent backlash.

@Christoph-Hart I get this message whenever I add a prompt

I'll check their github see if there is an issue there.

[Christoph Hart]

@David-Healey have you authorized opencode? Type opencode auth login, then select anthropic (there are two options, one for regular API usage and one for the plans), pick the one for the plan, paste the link in the browser, authorize it with your Claude subscription account, then paste back the stuff back into the terminal.

[David Healey]

@Christoph-Hart Yeah I've done that, I did it through the GUI interface.

[Christoph Hart]

@David-Healey have you selected the right model? The claude models show up both through the Zen and Claude provider so if you picked the Zen one it tries to spend non-existent API token money.

[David Healey]

@Christoph-Hart Aha you're totally correct, I didn't notice the little Z icon next to the model. All working now, thanks!

[David Healey]

This is slightly addictive. I'm getting Claude to allow us to style the MIDI Learn panel using LAF which is something I've wanted for ages.

-- Yes this design is hideous, I'm just testing it

@David-Healey I've set up OpenCode on my mac but the CLI version. Was advised that the Hise codebase is so massive that the desktop app would struggle to load the files. Simple tasks are taking a while via terminal / gpt 4. Can I check what your setup is pls?

I'm using Claude Code in the web, I have also set it up in Open Code but haven't had time to investigate the workflow there yet.

In the browser I just point Claude to my HISE github repo and select the branch I'm using. Then I tell it what I want and it create a new branch for its changes.

[dannytaurus]

@DanH I use Claude Opus and Sonnet in the Cursor IDE (desktop app) with he whole HISE repo and it work great.

Cursor is good about sending the right amount of context and caching where it can.
