That would just turn into a nameable target to avoid. Ofc you'd end up with less obviously-AI text but it wouldn't take much more effort to produce than the AI-generated version did since it is not that hard to game it.

really like this, the smartclip part especially. At uni i'm constantly copying questions into llms or pdfs and the moment i copy one more thing i lose the last one and have to redo it. Genuine question though since windows already has Win+V clipboard history what does smartclip add on top is it mainly the privacy masking and being fully offline?

Cool but it's relying on every extractor honoring that replacement-text property which you said yourself is hit or miss. So it's clean markdown until someone runs it through a tool that ignores it and quietly gets the messy version and has no idea that happened.

Makes sense. Slop is basically what you get when there's nothing specific to copy and so the AI it just averages every web style together. Qt works because there's really only one way Qt looks.Modern web has a million versions of everything so you average all that and get slop.

A commit is useful because you cleaned it up first. The messing around in between is where you try things and delete the dead ends and most of it is meant to be thrown away. Saving every change and every agent message keeps all that junk around instead.

Really like this. The mission stands out the most, you've built something that's honest about being a starting point and is actually designed to send people on to the primary texts and real teachers, which is the opposite of what most apps optimize for. The per-figure factcheck showing what's verified versus recreated is a thoughtful honesty touch too. Lovely project.
