I tried to get claude-3-opus to solve today’s Connections. It did well enough that I am going to try doing this more consistently.


I grew tried of Nix and decided to setup Homebrew as well. I finally gave in after trying to install llm and not being able to figure out how to install plugins despite the message

If you want to install extra llm plugins, use llm.withPlugins([]) expression.

In tracing this error, I also learning nixpkgs can apply patches to libraries in its registry.

I never figured out how to make this work. Instead, I installed Homebrew which allowed me to install things the standard way

llm install llm-claude-3
