Some details of my current agent coding environment:

1. **WebFetch:** [Allow all domains](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/claude-code-allow-webfetch-all-domains)—permission fatigue costs more than the risk.

2. **Project switcher:** Helper script to [launch Claude or Codex in the right folder](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/claude-code-project-switcher).

3. **Question mode:** Prefix messages with `?` to [prevent Claude from editing files](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/question-mode-for-claude-code) when you just want to ask a question.

4. **Google Docs:** [Gdoc CLI](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/use-gdoc-for-google-docs) is the best way to edit Google Docs.

5. **"Try" for experiments:** Use Tobi Lutke's [Try tool](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/use-try-for-quick-experiments) for managing quick experiments.

6. **My CLAUDE.md:** A recent version of [my global CLAUDE.md](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/my-claude-md).

7. **Keep conversation history:** [Tell Claude Code to store past conversations indefinitely](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/keep-claude-code-conversation-history). By default it deletes after 30 days.

8. **Date errors:** LLMs sometimes offset calendar dates by one day. [Fix it with a Python script](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/fix-llm-date-errors).

9. **Share skills between agents:** Store skills in `~/.agents/skills/` and symlink to make them [work in Claude Code, Codex and Gemini](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/share-skills-between-coding-agents).

10. **Browser use:** [Enable Claude to test its work in Chrome](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/enable-claude-to-test-its-work-in-chrome).

11. **Quick Look markdown files:** Use [QLMarkdown](https://wow.pjh.is/journal/qlmarkdown-quick-look) to preview files with rendered markdown in Mac OS Finder.
