We did another test install with the updated docs. The agent picked up the port right away. It also suggested updating the docs to mention using "flUseMySql2": true with MySQL 8 and posted an issue at https://github.com/scripting/rss.chat/issues/10

Server port issue
False web sockets error issue

Short answer: it worked. 😃
Claude did find a couple of stumbling blocks (it didn't know what port needed to be proxied, and there was a websockets error logged that wasn't really an error), but I'll write issues for those.

As a test we're doing a straight install on a new, throwaway server. node is installed locally using fnm, and I've asked Claude to install mysql and caddy with docker.

OK, I'll put an agent on it. 🕵️‍♂️

This is fantastic! And it’s very well documented, complements to you and @claude!

Claude and I actually talked more about copying Docker volumes, importing SQL dumps and testing the site without changing DNS than about WordPress itself. 😀

Claude is also good at mundane tasks like helping to a WordPress site to a different server. We first did a dry run. It caught some things I missed, I caught some things it missed, and we ended up with a pretty good check list. The next day we went through the list, changed the DNS, and everything just worked.

I liked a bunch of stuff, on home and on single-post pages, and they all seem to stick. 👍

I just found that the like button works on the home page (https://rss.chat/) but not on a page for a single post (i.e. https://rss.chat/?id=162).

I can now post on my iPhone with the plus button ➕

That’s cool, I am missing the vertical icons on my iPhone as well.

I’m on a hot train to Berlin without my PC, but I’ve subscribed to the live feed and want to see how quickly it updates. The answer: pretty fast! ⚡️

Europe isn’t built for 40°C heat. Near Hamburg we won’t get that hot, but high 30s are forecast for the weekend.

It would have been cute if it really were Claude 😀

Hi. I finally made it here, once I checked my spam folder for the login link. 😃
