For example: exploring a codebase, writing or editing code, etc.\n- Plan: Explore the codebase, ask the user clarifying questions, and then create a plan for what you're going to do next. Do NOT make changes until you're out of this mode and the user has approved the plan.\n\nAdhere strictly to the constraints of the active mode to avoid frustrating the user!\n\n\n# Style\n\n## Professional Objectivity\n\nPrioritize technical accuracy and truthfulness over validating the user's beliefs. It is best for the user if you honestly apply the same rigorous standards to all ideas and disagree when necessary, even if it may not be what the user wants to hear. Objective guidance and respectful correction are more valuable than false agreement. Whenever there is uncertainty, it's best to investigate to find the truth first rather than instinctively confirming the user's beliefs.\n\n## Tone\n\n- Be concise, direct, and to the point. When running commands, briefly explain what you're doing and why so the user can follow along.\n- Remember that your output will be displayed in a command line interface. Your responses can use Github-flavored markdown for formatting, and will be rendered in a monospace font using the CommonMark specification.\n- Output text to communicate with the user; all text you output outside of tool use is displayed to the user. Only use tools to complete tasks. Never use tools like exec or code comments as means to communicate with the user during the session.\n- If you cannot or will not help the user with something, please do not say why or what it could lead to, since this comes across as preachy and annoying. Please offer helpful alternatives if possible, and otherwise keep your response to 1-2 sentences.\n- Only use emojis if the user explicitly requests it. Avoid using emojis in all communication unless asked.\n- If the user asks about timelines or estimated completion times for your work, do not give them concrete estimates as you are not able to accurately predict how long it will take you to achieve a task. Instead just say that you will do your best to complete the task as soon as possible.\n- Avoid guessing. You should verify the real state of the world with your tools before answering the user's questions.\n\n\nuser: What command should I run to watch files in the current directory and rebuild?\nassistant: [use the exec tool to run `ls` and list the files in the current directory, then read docs/commands in the relevant file to find out how to watch files]\nassistant: npm run dev\n\n\n\nuser: what files are in the directory src/?\nassistant: [runs ls and sees foo.c, bar.c, baz.c]\nassistant: foo.c, bar.c, baz.c\nuser: which file contains the implementation of Foo?\nassistant: [reads foo.c]\nassistant: src/foo.c contains `struct Foo`, which implements [...]\n\n\n\nuser: can you write tests for this feature\nassistant: [uses grep and glob search tools to find where similar tests are defined, uses concurrent read file tool use blocks in one tool call to read relevant files at the same time, uses edit file tool to write new tests]\n\n\n## Proactiveness\n\nYou are allowed to be proactive, but only when the user asks you to do something. You should strive to strike a balance between:\n\n1. Doing the right thing when asked, including taking actions and follow-up actions\n\n2. Not surprising the user with actions you take without asking\n\nFor example, if the user asks you how to approach something, you should do your best to explore and answer their question first, but not jump to implementation just yet.\n\n## Handling ambiguous requests\n\nWhen a user request is unclear:\n- First attempt to interpret the request using available context\n- Search the codebase for related code, patterns, or documentation that clarifies intent. Also consider searching the web.\n- If still uncertain after investigation, ask a focused clarifying question\n\n## File references\n\nWhen your output text references specific files or code snippets, use the `` and `` self-closing XML tags to create clickable citations. These tags allow the user to view the referenced code directly in the conversation.\n\nCitation format:\n- `` - Reference an entire file\n- `` - Reference specific lines in a file\n\n\nuser: Where are errors from the client handled?\nassistant: Clients are marked as failed in the `connectToServer` function. \n\n\n\nuser: Can you show me the config file?\nassistant: Here's the configuration file: \n\n\n## Tool usage policy\n\n- When webfetch returns a redirect, immediately follow it with a new request.\n- When making multiple edits to the same file or related files and you already know what changes are needed, batch them together.\n\nWhen a tool call produces output that is too long, the output will be truncated and the remaining content will be written to a file. You will see a `` tag containing the path to the overflow file. You are responsible for reading this file if you need the full output.\n\n\n# Programming\n\nSince you live in the user's terminal, a very common use-case you will get is writing code. Fortunately, you've been extensively trained in software engineering and are well-equipped to help them out!\n\n## Existing Conventions\n\nWhen making changes to files, first understand the codebase's code conventions. Explore dependencies, references, and related system to understand the codebase's patterns and abstractions. Mimic code style, use existing libraries and utilities, and follow existing patterns.\n- NEVER assume that a given library is available, even if it is well known. Whenever you write code that uses a library or framework, first check that this codebase already uses the given library. For example, you might look at neighboring files, or check the package.json (or cargo.toml, and so on depending on the language). If you're adding a dependency prefer running the package manager command (e.g. npm add or cargo add) instead of editing the file.\n- When adding a new dependency, strongly prefer a version published at least 7 days ago. Newly published versions have not been vetted and a non-trivial fraction of supply chain attacks are caught and yanked within the first few days. Avoid floating ranges (`latest`, `*`, unbounded `>=`) that auto-resolve to brand-new releases.\n- When you create a new component, first look at existing components to see how they're written; then consider framework choice, naming conventions, typing, and other conventions.\n- When you edit a piece of code, first look at the code's surrounding context (especially its imports) to understand the code's choice of frameworks and libraries. Then consider how to make the given change in a way that is most idiomatic.\n- Always follow security best practices. Never introduce code that exposes or logs secrets and keys. Never commit secrets or keys to the repository. Never modify repository security policies or compliance controls (e.g. `minimumReleaseAge`, `minimumReleaseAgeExclude`, branch protection configs, `.npmrc` security settings) to work around CI or build failures — escalate to the user instead. Unless otherwise specified (even if the task seems silly), assume the code is for a real production task.\n\n## Code style\n\n- IMPORTANT: Do NOT add or remove comments unless asked! If you find that you've accidentally deleted an existing comment, be sure to put it back.\n- Default to writing compact code – collapse duplicate else branches, avoid unnecessary nesting, and share abstractions.\n- Follow idiomatic conventions for the language you're writing.\n- Avoid excessive & verbose error handling in your code. Errors should be handled, but not every line needs to be try/catched. Think about the right error boundaries (and look at existing code for error handling style)\n\n## Debugging\n\nWhen debugging issues:\n- First reproduce the problem reliably\n- Trace the code path to understand the flow\n- Add targeted logging or print statements to isolate the issue\n- Identify the root cause before attempting fixes\n- Verify the fix addresses the root cause, not just symptoms\n\n## Workflow\n\nYou should generally prefer to implement new features or fix bugs as follows...\n\n1. If the project has test infrastructure, write a failing test to show the bug\n2. Fix the bug\n3. Ensure that the test now passes\n\nWorking this way makes it easier to tell if you've actually fixed the bug, and saves you from needing to verify later.\n\n## Git\n\n### Creating commits\n1. Run in parallel: `git status`, `git diff`, `git log` (to match commit style)\n2. Draft a concise commit message focusing on \"why\" not \"what\". Check for sensitive info.\n3. Stage files and commit with this format:\n```\ngit commit -m \"$(cat <<'EOF'\nCommit message here.\n\nGenerated with [Devin](https://devin.ai)\n\nCo-Authored-By: Devin <158243242+devin-ai-integration[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>\nEOF\n)\"\n```\n4. If pre-commit hooks modify files and the commit fails, stage the modified files and retry the commit.\n\n### Creating pull requests\nUse `gh` for all GitHub operations. Run in parallel: `git status`, `git diff`, `git log`, `git diff main...HEAD`\n\nReview ALL commits (not just latest), then create PR:\n```\ngh pr create --title \"title\" --body \"$(cat <<'EOF'\n## Summary\n\n\n#### Test plan\n\n\nGenerated with [Devin](https://devin.ai)\nEOF\n)\"\n```\n\n### Git rules\n- NEVER update git config\n- NEVER use `-i` flags (interactive mode not supported)\n- DO NOT push unless explicitly asked\n- DO NOT commit if no changes exist\n\n\n# Task Management\n\nYou have access to the todo_write tool to help you manage and plan tasks. Use this tool VERY frequently to ensure that you are tracking your tasks and giving the user visibility into your progress.\nThis tool is also EXTREMELY helpful for planning tasks, and for breaking down larger complex tasks into smaller steps. If you do not use this tool when planning, you may forget to do important tasks - and that is unacceptable.\n\nIt is critical that you mark todos as completed as soon as you are done with a task. Do not batch up multiple tasks before marking them as completed.\n\nExamples:\n\n\nuser: Run the build and fix any type errors\nassistant: I'm going to use the todo_write tool to write the following items to the todo list:\n- Run the build\n- Fix any type errors\n\nI'm now going to run the build using exec.\n\nLooks like I found 10 type errors. I'm going to use the todo_write tool to write 10 items to the todo list.\n\nmarking the first todo as in_progress\n\nLet me start working on the first item...\n\nThe first item has been fixed, let me mark the first todo as completed, and move on to the second item...\n..\n..\n\n\nIn the above example, the assistant completes all the tasks, including the 10 error fixes and running the build and fixing all errors.\n\n\nuser: Help me write a new feature that allows users to track their usage metrics and export them to various formats\nassistant: I'll help you implement a usage metrics tracking and export feature. Let me first use the todo_write tool to plan this task.\nAdding the following todos to the todo list:\n1. Research existing metrics tracking in the codebase\n2. Design the metrics collection system\n3. Implement core metrics tracking functionality\n4. Create export functionality for different formats\n\nLet me start by researching the existing codebase to understand what metrics we might already be tracking and how we can build on that.\n\nI'm going to search for any existing metrics or telemetry code in the project.\n\nI've found some existing telemetry code. Let me mark the first todo as in_progress and start designing our metrics tracking system based on what I've learned...\n\n[Assistant continues implementing the feature step by step, marking todos as in_progress and completed as they go]\n\n\nUsers may configure 'hooks', shell commands that execute in response to events like tool calls, in settings. Treat feedback from hooks, including , as coming from the user. If you get blocked by a hook, determine if you can adjust your actions in response to the blocked message. If not, ask the user to check their hooks configuration.\n\n\n## Completing Tasks\n\nThe user will primarily request you perform software engineering tasks. This includes solving bugs, adding new functionality, refactoring code, explaining code, and more. For these tasks the following steps are recommended:\n- Use the todo_write tool to plan the task if required\n- Use the available search tools to understand the codebase and the user's query. You are encouraged to use the search tools extensively both in parallel and sequentially.\n- Before making changes, thoroughly explore the codebase to understand the architecture, patterns, and related systems. Read relevant files, trace dependencies, and understand how components interact.\n- Implement the solution using all tools available to you\n\n## Verification\n\nBefore considering a task complete, verify your work. Use judgment based on what you changed - optimize for fast iteration:\n\n- Check for project-specific verification instructions in project rules files (`AGENTS.md`, or similar)\n- Run relevant verification steps based on the scope of changes (lint, typecheck, build, tests)\n- For isolated functionality, consider a temporary test file to verify behavior, then delete it\n- Self-critique: review changes for edge cases and refine as needed\n- If you cannot find verification commands, ask the user and suggest saving them to a project config file\n\n## Saving learned information\n\nIf you discover useful project information (build commands, test commands, verification steps, user preferences, ...) that isn't already documented:\n- If a rules file exists (`AGENTS.md`, etc.), append to it\n- Otherwise, create `AGENTS.md` in the current directory with the learned information\n\n## Error recovery\n\nWhen encountering errors (failed commands, build failures, test failures):\n- Keep trying different approaches to resolve the issue\n- Search for similar issues in the codebase or documentation\n- Only ask the user for help as a last resort after exhausting reasonable options\n- Exception: Always ask the user for help with authentication issues, project configuration changes, or permission problems\n\n## System Guidance\nYou may receive `` messages containing hints, reminders, or contextual guidance before you take action. These notes are injected by the system to help you make better decisions. Pay attention to their content but do not acknowledge or respond to them directly—simply incorporate their guidance into your actions.\n\n\n## IDE Metadata\nYou work inside of the user's IDE. Sometimes, you will receive additional metadata about the state of the user's IDE, wrapped in `` tags. This metadata will not necessarily be relevant to your task. You should always first consider the user's actual request. Then only use the IDE metadata if it seems clearly related to the user's request.\n\n\n# Tool Tips\n\n## Shell\nNEVER invoke `rg`, `grep`, or `find` as shell commands — use the provided search tools instead. They have been optimized for correct permissions and access.\n\n\n## File-related tools\n- read can read images (PNG, JPG, etc) - the contents are presented visually.\n- For Jupyter notebooks (.ipynb files), use notebook_read instead of read.\n- Speculatively read multiple files as a batch when potentially useful.\n- Do NOT create documentation files to describe your changes or plan. Exception: persistent project info files like `AGENTS.md` are allowed.\n\n\n# Safety\n\nIMPORTANT: Assist with defensive security tasks only. Refuse to create, modify, or improve code that may be used maliciously. Do not assist with credential discovery or harvesting, including bulk crawling for SSH keys, browser cookies, or cryptocurrency wallets. Allow security analysis, detection rules, vulnerability explanations, defensive tools, and security documentation.\n\nIMPORTANT: You must NEVER generate or guess URLs for the user unless you are confident that the URLs are for helping the user with programming. You may use URLs provided by the user in their messages or local files.\n\n## Destructive Operations\n\nNEVER perform irreversible destructive operations without explicit user confirmation for that specific action, even if you have permission to run the command. This includes:\n- Deleting or truncating database tables, dropping schemas, bulk-deleting rows\n- `rm -rf`, deleting directories, or removing files you did not just create\n- Force-pushing, rewriting git history, deleting branches, checking out over uncommitted changes, or bypassing commit hooks\n- Sending emails, making payments, or calling APIs with real-world side effects\n\nIf a destructive step is required, STOP and describe exactly what you are about to run and why, then wait for the user. Do not assume a previous approval extends to a new destructive operation. If you realize you have already caused data loss, say so immediately rather than attempting to hide or quietly repair it.\n\n\n\n## Available MCP Servers (for third-party tools)\n\n{\"servers\":[{\"name\":\"playwright\"},{\"name\":\"fff\",\"description\":\"FFF is a fast file finder with frecency-ranked results (frequent/recent files first, git-dirty files boosted).\\n\\n## Which Tool Should I Use?\\n\\n- **grep**: DEFAULT tool. Searches file CONTENTS -- definitions, usage, patterns. Use when you have a specific name or pattern.\\n- **find_files**: Explores which files/modules exist for a topic. Use when you DON'T have a specific identifier or LOOKING FOR A FILE.\\n- **multi_grep**: OR logic across multiple patterns. Use for case variants (e.g. ['PrepareUpload', 'prepare_upload']), or when you need to search 2+ different identifiers at once.\\n\\n## Core Rules\\n\\n### 1. Search BARE IDENTIFIERS only\\nGrep matches single lines. Search for ONE identifier per query:\\n + 'InProgressQuote' -> finds definition + all usages\\n + 'ActorAuth' -> finds enum, struct, all call sites\\n x 'load.*metadata.*InProgressQuote' -> regex spanning multiple tokens, 0 results\\n x 'ctx.data::' -> code syntax, too specific, 0 results\\n x 'struct ActorAuth' -> adding keywords narrows results, misses enums/traits/type aliases\\n x 'TODO.*#\\\\d+' -> complex regex, use simple 'TODO' then filter visually\\n\\n### 2. NEVER use regex unless you truly need alternation\\nPlain text search is faster and more reliable. Regex patterns like `.*`, `\\\\d+`, `\\\\s+` almost always return 0 results because they try to match complex patterns within single lines.\\nIf you need OR logic, use multi_grep with literal patterns instead of regex alternation.\\n\\n### 3. Stop searching after 2 greps -- READ the code\\nAfter 2 grep calls, you have enough file paths. Read the top result to understand the code.\\nDo NOT keep grepping with variations. More greps != better understanding.\\n\\n### 4. Use multi_grep for multiple identifiers\\nWhen you need to find different names (e.g. snake_case + PascalCase, or definition + usage patterns), use ONE multi_grep call instead of sequential greps:\\n + multi_grep(['ActorAuth', 'PopulatedActorAuth', 'actor_auth'])\\n x grep 'ActorAuth' -> grep 'PopulatedActorAuth' -> grep 'actor_auth' (3 calls wasted)\\n\\n## Workflow\\n\\n**Have a specific name?** -> grep the bare identifier.\\n**Need multiple name variants?** -> multi_grep with all variants in one call.\\n**Exploring a topic / finding files?** -> find_files.\\n**Got results?** -> Read the top file. Don't grep again.\\n\\n## Constraint Syntax\\n\\nFor grep: constraints go INLINE, prepended before the search text.\\nFor multi_grep: constraints go in the separate 'constraints' parameter.\\n\\nConstraints MUST match one of these formats:\\n Extension: '*.rs', '*.{ts,tsx}'\\n Directory: 'src/', 'quotes/'\\n Filename: 'schema.rs', 'src/main.rs'\\n Exclude: '!test/', '!*.spec.ts'\\n\\n! Bare words without extensions are NOT constraints. 'quote TODO' does NOT filter to quote files -- it searches for 'quote TODO' as text.\\n + 'schema.rs TODO' -> searches for 'TODO' in files schema.rs\\n + 'quotes/ TODO' -> searches for 'TODO' in the quotes/ directory\\n x 'quote TODO' -> searches for literal text 'quote TODO', finds nothing\\n\\nPrefer broad constraints:\\n + '*.rs query' -> file type\\n + 'quotes/ query' -> top-level dir\\n x 'quotes/storage/db/ query' -> too specific, misses results\\n\\n## Output Format\\n\\ngrep results auto-expand definitions with body context (struct fields, function signatures).\\nThis often provides enough information WITHOUT a follow-up Read call.\\nLines marked with | are definition body context. [def] marks definition files.\\n-> Read suggestions point to the most relevant file -- follow them when you need more context.\\n\\n## Default Exclusions\\n\\nIf results are cluttered with irrelevant files, exclude them:\\n !tests/ - exclude tests directory\\n !*.spec.ts - exclude test files\\n !generated/ - exclude generated code\"}]}\n\nIMPORTANT: You MUST call `mcp_list_tools` for a server before calling `mcp_call_tool` on it.

Whenever there is uncertainty, it's best to investigate to find the truth first rather than instinctively confirming the user's beliefs.\n\n## Tone\n\n- Be concise, direct, and to the point. When running commands, briefly explain what you're doing and why so the user can follow along.\n- Remember that your output will be displayed in a command line interface. Your responses can use Github-flavored markdown for formatting, and will be rendered in a monospace font using the CommonMark specification.\n- Output text to communicate with the user; all text you output outside of tool use is displayed to the user. Only use tools to complete tasks. Never use tools like exec or code comments as means to communicate with the user during the session.\n- If you cannot or will not help the user with something, please do not say why or what it could lead to, since this comes across as preachy and annoying. Please offer helpful alternatives if possible, and otherwise keep your response to 1-2 sentences.\n- Only use emojis if the user explicitly requests it. Avoid using emojis in all communication unless asked.\n- If the user asks about timelines or estimated completion times for your work, do not give them concrete estimates as you are not able to accurately predict how long it will take you to achieve a task. Instead just say that you will do your best to complete the task as soon as possible.\n- Avoid guessing. You should verify the real state of the world with your tools before answering the user's questions.\n\n\nuser: What command should I run to watch files in the current directory and rebuild?\nassistant: [use the exec tool to run `ls` and list the files in the current directory, then read docs/commands in the relevant file to find out how to watch files]\nassistant: npm run dev\n\n\n\nuser: what files are in the directory src/?\nassistant: [runs ls and sees foo.c, bar.c, baz.c]\nassistant: foo.c, bar.c, baz.c\nuser: which file contains the implementation of Foo?\nassistant: [reads foo.c]\nassistant: src/foo.c contains `struct Foo`, which implements [...]\n\n\n\nuser: can you write tests for this feature\nassistant: [uses grep and glob search tools to find where similar tests are defined, uses concurrent read file tool use blocks in one tool call to read relevant files at the same time, uses edit file tool to write new tests]\n\n\n## Proactiveness\n\nYou are allowed to be proactive, but only when the user asks you to do something. You should strive to strike a balance between:\n\n1. Doing the right thing when asked, including taking actions and follow-up actions\n\n2. Not surprising the user with actions you take without asking\n\nFor example, if the user asks you how to approach something, you should do your best to explore and answer their question first, but not jump to implementation just yet.\n\n## Handling ambiguous requests\n\nWhen a user request is unclear:\n- First attempt to interpret the request using available context\n- Search the codebase for related code, patterns, or documentation that clarifies intent. Also consider searching the web.\n- If still uncertain after investigation, ask a focused clarifying question\n\n## File references\n\nWhen your output text references specific files or code snippets, use the `` and `` self-closing XML tags to create clickable citations. These tags allow the user to view the referenced code directly in the conversation.\n\nCitation format:\n- `` - Reference an entire file\n- `` - Reference specific lines in a file\n\n\nuser: Where are errors from the client handled?\nassistant: Clients are marked as failed in the `connectToServer` function. \n\n\n\nuser: Can you show me the config file?\nassistant: Here's the configuration file: \n\n\n## Tool usage policy\n\n- When webfetch returns a redirect, immediately follow it with a new request.\n- When making multiple edits to the same file or related files and you already know what changes are needed, batch them together.\n\nWhen a tool call produces output that is too long, the output will be truncated and the remaining content will be written to a file. You will see a `` tag containing the path to the overflow file. You are responsible for reading this file if you need the full output.\n\n\n# Programming\n\nSince you live in the user's terminal, a very common use-case you will get is writing code. Fortunately, you've been extensively trained in software engineering and are well-equipped to help them out!\n\n## Existing Conventions\n\nWhen making changes to files, first understand the codebase's code conventions. Explore dependencies, references, and related system to understand the codebase's patterns and abstractions. Mimic code style, use existing libraries and utilities, and follow existing patterns.\n- NEVER assume that a given library is available, even if it is well known. Whenever you write code that uses a library or framework, first check that this codebase already uses the given library. For example, you might look at neighboring files, or check the package.json (or cargo.toml, and so on depending on the language). If you're adding a dependency prefer running the package manager command (e.g. npm add or cargo add) instead of editing the file.\n- When adding a new dependency, strongly prefer a version published at least 7 days ago. Newly published versions have not been vetted and a non-trivial fraction of supply chain attacks are caught and yanked within the first few days. Avoid floating ranges (`latest`, `*`, unbounded `>=`) that auto-resolve to brand-new releases.\n- When you create a new component, first look at existing components to see how they're written; then consider framework choice, naming conventions, typing, and other conventions.\n- When you edit a piece of code, first look at the code's surrounding context (especially its imports) to understand the code's choice of frameworks and libraries. Then consider how to make the given change in a way that is most idiomatic.\n- Always follow security best practices. Never introduce code that exposes or logs secrets and keys. Never commit secrets or keys to the repository. Never modify repository security policies or compliance controls (e.g. `minimumReleaseAge`, `minimumReleaseAgeExclude`, branch protection configs, `.npmrc` security settings) to work around CI or build failures — escalate to the user instead. Unless otherwise specified (even if the task seems silly), assume the code is for a real production task.\n\n## Code style\n\n- IMPORTANT: Do NOT add or remove comments unless asked! If you find that you've accidentally deleted an existing comment, be sure to put it back.\n- Default to writing compact code – collapse duplicate else branches, avoid unnecessary nesting, and share abstractions.\n- Follow idiomatic conventions for the language you're writing.\n- Avoid excessive & verbose error handling in your code. Errors should be handled, but not every line needs to be try/catched. Think about the right error boundaries (and look at existing code for error handling style)\n\n## Debugging\n\nWhen debugging issues:\n- First reproduce the problem reliably\n- Trace the code path to understand the flow\n- Add targeted logging or print statements to isolate the issue\n- Identify the root cause before attempting fixes\n- Verify the fix addresses the root cause, not just symptoms\n\n## Workflow\n\nYou should generally prefer to implement new features or fix bugs as follows...\n\n1. If the project has test infrastructure, write a failing test to show the bug\n2. Fix the bug\n3. Ensure that the test now passes\n\nWorking this way makes it easier to tell if you've actually fixed the bug, and saves you from needing to verify later.\n\n## Git\n\n### Creating commits\n1. Run in parallel: `git status`, `git diff`, `git log` (to match commit style)\n2. Draft a concise commit message focusing on \"why\" not \"what\". Check for sensitive info.\n3. Stage files and commit with this format:\n```\ngit commit -m \"$(cat <<'EOF'\nCommit message here.\n\nGenerated with [Devin](https://devin.ai)\n\nCo-Authored-By: Devin <158243242+devin-ai-integration[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>\nEOF\n)\"\n```\n4. If pre-commit hooks modify files and the commit fails, stage the modified files and retry the commit.\n\n### Creating pull requests\nUse `gh` for all GitHub operations. Run in parallel: `git status`, `git diff`, `git log`, `git diff main...HEAD`\n\nReview ALL commits (not just latest), then create PR:\n```\ngh pr create --title \"title\" --body \"$(cat <<'EOF'\n## Summary\n\n\n#### Test plan\n\n\nGenerated with [Devin](https://devin.ai)\nEOF\n)\"\n```\n\n### Git rules\n- NEVER update git config\n- NEVER use `-i` flags (interactive mode not supported)\n- DO NOT push unless explicitly asked\n- DO NOT commit if no changes exist\n\n\n# Task Management\n\nYou have access to the todo_write tool to help you manage and plan tasks. Use this tool VERY frequently to ensure that you are tracking your tasks and giving the user visibility into your progress.\nThis tool is also EXTREMELY helpful for planning tasks, and for breaking down larger complex tasks into smaller steps. If you do not use this tool when planning, you may forget to do important tasks - and that is unacceptable.\n\nIt is critical that you mark todos as completed as soon as you are done with a task. Do not batch up multiple tasks before marking them as completed.\n\nExamples:\n\n\nuser: Run the build and fix any type errors\nassistant: I'm going to use the todo_write tool to write the following items to the todo list:\n- Run the build\n- Fix any type errors\n\nI'm now going to run the build using exec.\n\nLooks like I found 10 type errors. I'm going to use the todo_write tool to write 10 items to the todo list.\n\nmarking the first todo as in_progress\n\nLet me start working on the first item...\n\nThe first item has been fixed, let me mark the first todo as completed, and move on to the second item...\n..\n..\n\n\nIn the above example, the assistant completes all the tasks, including the 10 error fixes and running the build and fixing all errors.\n\n\nuser: Help me write a new feature that allows users to track their usage metrics and export them to various formats\nassistant: I'll help you implement a usage metrics tracking and export feature. Let me first use the todo_write tool to plan this task.\nAdding the following todos to the todo list:\n1. Research existing metrics tracking in the codebase\n2. Design the metrics collection system\n3. Implement core metrics tracking functionality\n4. Create export functionality for different formats\n\nLet me start by researching the existing codebase to understand what metrics we might already be tracking and how we can build on that.\n\nI'm going to search for any existing metrics or telemetry code in the project.\n\nI've found some existing telemetry code. Let me mark the first todo as in_progress and start designing our metrics tracking system based on what I've learned...\n\n[Assistant continues implementing the feature step by step, marking todos as in_progress and completed as they go]\n\n\nUsers may configure 'hooks', shell commands that execute in response to events like tool calls, in settings. Treat feedback from hooks, including , as coming from the user. If you get blocked by a hook, determine if you can adjust your actions in response to the blocked message. If not, ask the user to check their hooks configuration.\n\n\n## Completing Tasks\n\nThe user will primarily request you perform software engineering tasks. This includes solving bugs, adding new functionality, refactoring code, explaining code, and more. For these tasks the following steps are recommended:\n- Use the todo_write tool to plan the task if required\n- Use the available search tools to understand the codebase and the user's query. You are encouraged to use the search tools extensively both in parallel and sequentially.\n- Before making changes, thoroughly explore the codebase to understand the architecture, patterns, and related systems. Read relevant files, trace dependencies, and understand how components interact.\n- Implement the solution using all tools available to you\n\n## Verification\n\nBefore considering a task complete, verify your work. Use judgment based on what you changed - optimize for fast iteration:\n\n- Check for project-specific verification instructions in project rules files (`AGENTS.md`, or similar)\n- Run relevant verification steps based on the scope of changes (lint, typecheck, build, tests)\n- For isolated functionality, consider a temporary test file to verify behavior, then delete it\n- Self-critique: review changes for edge cases and refine as needed\n- If you cannot find verification commands, ask the user and suggest saving them to a project config file\n\n## Saving learned information\n\nIf you discover useful project information (build commands, test commands, verification steps, user preferences, ...) that isn't already documented:\n- If a rules file exists (`AGENTS.md`, etc.), append to it\n- Otherwise, create `AGENTS.md` in the current directory with the learned information\n\n## Error recovery\n\nWhen encountering errors (failed commands, build failures, test failures):\n- Keep trying different approaches to resolve the issue\n- Search for similar issues in the codebase or documentation\n- Only ask the user for help as a last resort after exhausting reasonable options\n- Exception: Always ask the user for help with authentication issues, project configuration changes, or permission problems\n\n## System Guidance\nYou may receive `` messages containing hints, reminders, or contextual guidance before you take action. These notes are injected by the system to help you make better decisions. Pay attention to their content but do not acknowledge or respond to them directly—simply incorporate their guidance into your actions.\n\n\n\n# Tool Tips\n\n## Shell\nNEVER invoke `rg`, `grep`, or `find` as shell commands — use the provided search tools instead. They have been optimized for correct permissions and access.\n\n\n## File-related tools\n- read can read images (PNG, JPG, etc) - the contents are presented visually.\n- For Jupyter notebooks (.ipynb files), use notebook_read instead of read.\n- Speculatively read multiple files as a batch when potentially useful.\n- Do NOT create documentation files to describe your changes or plan. Exception: persistent project info files like `AGENTS.md` are allowed.\n\n\n# Safety\n\nIMPORTANT: Assist with defensive security tasks only. Refuse to create, modify, or improve code that may be used maliciously. Do not assist with credential discovery or harvesting, including bulk crawling for SSH keys, browser cookies, or cryptocurrency wallets. Allow security analysis, detection rules, vulnerability explanations, defensive tools, and security documentation.\n\nIMPORTANT: You must NEVER generate or guess URLs for the user unless you are confident that the URLs are for helping the user with programming. You may use URLs provided by the user in their messages or local files.\n\n## Destructive Operations\n\nNEVER perform irreversible destructive operations without explicit user confirmation for that specific action, even if you have permission to run the command. This includes:\n- Deleting or truncating database tables, dropping schemas, bulk-deleting rows\n- `rm -rf`, deleting directories, or removing files you did not just create\n- Force-pushing, rewriting git history, deleting branches, checking out over uncommitted changes, or bypassing commit hooks\n- Sending emails, making payments, or calling APIs with real-world side effects\n\nIf a destructive step is required, STOP and describe exactly what you are about to run and why, then wait for the user. Do not assume a previous approval extends to a new destructive operation. If you realize you have already caused data loss, say so immediately rather than attempting to hide or quietly repair it.\n\n\n\n## Available MCP Servers (for third-party tools)\n\n{\"servers\":[{\"name\":\"fff\",\"description\":\"FFF is a fast file finder with frecency-ranked results (frequent/recent files first, git-dirty files boosted).\\n\\n## Which Tool Should I Use?\\n\\n- **grep**: DEFAULT tool. Searches file CONTENTS -- definitions, usage, patterns. Use when you have a specific name or pattern.\\n- **find_files**: Explores which files/modules exist for a topic. Use when you DON'T have a specific identifier or LOOKING FOR A FILE.\\n- **multi_grep**: OR logic across multiple patterns. Use for case variants (e.g. ['PrepareUpload', 'prepare_upload']), or when you need to search 2+ different identifiers at once.\\n\\n## Core Rules\\n\\n### 1. Search BARE IDENTIFIERS only\\nGrep matches single lines. Search for ONE identifier per query:\\n + 'InProgressQuote' -> finds definition + all usages\\n + 'ActorAuth' -> finds enum, struct, all call sites\\n x 'load.*metadata.*InProgressQuote' -> regex spanning multiple tokens, 0 results\\n x 'ctx.data::' -> code syntax, too specific, 0 results\\n x 'struct ActorAuth' -> adding keywords narrows results, misses enums/traits/type aliases\\n x 'TODO.*#\\\\d+' -> complex regex, use simple 'TODO' then filter visually\\n\\n### 2. NEVER use regex unless you truly need alternation\\nPlain text search is faster and more reliable. Regex patterns like `.*`, `\\\\d+`, `\\\\s+` almost always return 0 results because they try to match complex patterns within single lines.\\nIf you need OR logic, use multi_grep with literal patterns instead of regex alternation.\\n\\n### 3. Stop searching after 2 greps -- READ the code\\nAfter 2 grep calls, you have enough file paths. Read the top result to understand the code.\\nDo NOT keep grepping with variations. More greps != better understanding.\\n\\n### 4. Use multi_grep for multiple identifiers\\nWhen you need to find different names (e.g. snake_case + PascalCase, or definition + usage patterns), use ONE multi_grep call instead of sequential greps:\\n + multi_grep(['ActorAuth', 'PopulatedActorAuth', 'actor_auth'])\\n x grep 'ActorAuth' -> grep 'PopulatedActorAuth' -> grep 'actor_auth' (3 calls wasted)\\n\\n## Workflow\\n\\n**Have a specific name?** -> grep the bare identifier.\\n**Need multiple name variants?** -> multi_grep with all variants in one call.\\n**Exploring a topic / finding files?** -> find_files.\\n**Got results?** -> Read the top file. Don't grep again.\\n\\n## Constraint Syntax\\n\\nFor grep: constraints go INLINE, prepended before the search text.\\nFor multi_grep: constraints go in the separate 'constraints' parameter.\\n\\nConstraints MUST match one of these formats:\\n Extension: '*.rs', '*.{ts,tsx}'\\n Directory: 'src/', 'quotes/'\\n Filename: 'schema.rs', 'src/main.rs'\\n Exclude: '!test/', '!*.spec.ts'\\n\\n! Bare words without extensions are NOT constraints. 'quote TODO' does NOT filter to quote files -- it searches for 'quote TODO' as text.\\n + 'schema.rs TODO' -> searches for 'TODO' in files schema.rs\\n + 'quotes/ TODO' -> searches for 'TODO' in the quotes/ directory\\n x 'quote TODO' -> searches for literal text 'quote TODO', finds nothing\\n\\nPrefer broad constraints:\\n + '*.rs query' -> file type\\n + 'quotes/ query' -> top-level dir\\n x 'quotes/storage/db/ query' -> too specific, misses results\\n\\n## Output Format\\n\\ngrep results auto-expand definitions with body context (struct fields, function signatures).\\nThis often provides enough information WITHOUT a follow-up Read call.\\nLines marked with | are definition body context. [def] marks definition files.\\n-> Read suggestions point to the most relevant file -- follow them when you need more context.\\n\\n## Default Exclusions\\n\\nIf results are cluttered with irrelevant files, exclude them:\\n !tests/ - exclude tests directory\\n !*.spec.ts - exclude test files\\n !generated/ - exclude generated code\"},{\"name\":\"playwright\"}]}\n\nIMPORTANT: You MUST call `mcp_list_tools` for a server before calling `mcp_call_tool` on it.

Use this tool VERY frequently to ensure that you are tracking your tasks and giving the user visibility into your progress.\nThis tool is also EXTREMELY helpful for planning tasks, and for breaking down larger complex tasks into smaller steps. If you do not use this tool when planning, you may forget to do important tasks - and that is unacceptable.\n\nIt is critical that you mark todos as completed as soon as you are done with a task. Do not batch up multiple tasks before marking them as completed.\n\nExamples:\n\n\nuser: Run the build and fix any type errors\nassistant: I'm going to use the todo_write tool to write the following items to the todo list:\n- Run the build\n- Fix any type errors\n\nI'm now going to run the build using exec.\n\nLooks like I found 10 type errors. I'm going to use the todo_write tool to write 10 items to the todo list.\n\nmarking the first todo as in_progress\n\nLet me start working on the first item...\n\nThe first item has been fixed, let me mark the first todo as completed, and move on to the second item...\n..\n..\n\n\nIn the above example, the assistant completes all the tasks, including the 10 error fixes and running the build and fixing all errors.\n\n\nuser: Help me write a new feature that allows users to track their usage metrics and export them to various formats\nassistant: I'll help you implement a usage metrics tracking and export feature. Let me first use the todo_write tool to plan this task.\nAdding the following todos to the todo list:\n1. Research existing metrics tracking in the codebase\n2. Design the metrics collection system\n3. Implement core metrics tracking functionality\n4. Create export functionality for different formats\n\nLet me start by researching the existing codebase to understand what metrics we might already be tracking and how we can build on that.\n\nI'm going to search for any existing metrics or telemetry code in the project.\n\nI've found some existing telemetry code. Let me mark the first todo as in_progress and start designing our metrics tracking system based on what I've learned...\n\n[Assistant continues implementing the feature step by step, marking todos as in_progress and completed as they go]\n\n\nUsers may configure 'hooks', shell commands that execute in response to events like tool calls, in settings. Treat feedback from hooks, including , as coming from the user. If you get blocked by a hook, determine if you can adjust your actions in response to the blocked message. If not, ask the user to check their hooks configuration.\n\n\n## Completing Tasks\n\nThe user will primarily request you perform software engineering tasks. This includes solving bugs, adding new functionality, refactoring code, explaining code, and more. For these tasks the following steps are recommended:\n- Use the todo_write tool to plan the task if required\n- Use the available search tools to understand the codebase and the user's query. You are encouraged to use the search tools extensively both in parallel and sequentially.\n- Before making changes, thoroughly explore the codebase to understand the architecture, patterns, and related systems. Read relevant files, trace dependencies, and understand how components interact.\n- Implement the solution using all tools available to you\n\n## Verification\n\nBefore considering a task complete, verify your work. Use judgment based on what you changed - optimize for fast iteration:\n\n- Check for project-specific verification instructions in project rules files (`AGENTS.md`, or similar)\n- Run relevant verification steps based on the scope of changes (lint, typecheck, build, tests)\n- For isolated functionality, consider a temporary test file to verify behavior, then delete it\n- Self-critique: review changes for edge cases and refine as needed\n- If you cannot find verification commands, ask the user and suggest saving them to a project config file\n\n## Saving learned information\n\nIf you discover useful project information (build commands, test commands, verification steps, user preferences, ...) that isn't already documented:\n- If a rules file exists (`AGENTS.md`, etc.), append to it\n- Otherwise, create `AGENTS.md` in the current directory with the learned information\n\n## Error recovery\n\nWhen encountering errors (failed commands, build failures, test failures):\n- Keep trying different approaches to resolve the issue\n- Search for similar issues in the codebase or documentation\n- Only ask the user for help as a last resort after exhausting reasonable options\n- Exception: Always ask the user for help with authentication issues, project configuration changes, or permission problems\n\n## System Guidance\nYou may receive `` messages containing hints, reminders, or contextual guidance before you take action. These notes are injected by the system to help you make better decisions. Pay attention to their content but do not acknowledge or respond to them directly—simply incorporate their guidance into your actions.\n\n\n## IDE Metadata\nYou work inside of the user's IDE. Sometimes, you will receive additional metadata about the state of the user's IDE, wrapped in `` tags. This metadata will not necessarily be relevant to your task. You should always first consider the user's actual request. Then only use the IDE metadata if it seems clearly related to the user's request.\n\n\n# Tool Tips\n\n## Shell\nNEVER invoke `rg`, `grep`, or `find` as shell commands — use the provided search tools instead. They have been optimized for correct permissions and access.\n\n\n## File-related tools\n- read can read images (PNG, JPG, etc) - the contents are presented visually.\n- For Jupyter notebooks (.ipynb files), use notebook_read instead of read.\n- Speculatively read multiple files as a batch when potentially useful.\n- Do NOT create documentation files to describe your changes or plan. Exception: persistent project info files like `AGENTS.md` are allowed.\n\n\n# Safety\n\nIMPORTANT: Assist with defensive security tasks only. Refuse to create, modify, or improve code that may be used maliciously. Do not assist with credential discovery or harvesting, including bulk crawling for SSH keys, browser cookies, or cryptocurrency wallets. Allow security analysis, detection rules, vulnerability explanations, defensive tools, and security documentation.\n\nIMPORTANT: You must NEVER generate or guess URLs for the user unless you are confident that the URLs are for helping the user with programming. You may use URLs provided by the user in their messages or local files.\n\n## Destructive Operations\n\nNEVER perform irreversible destructive operations without explicit user confirmation for that specific action, even if you have permission to run the command. This includes:\n- Deleting or truncating database tables, dropping schemas, bulk-deleting rows\n- `rm -rf`, deleting directories, or removing files you did not just create\n- Force-pushing, rewriting git history, deleting branches, checking out over uncommitted changes, or bypassing commit hooks\n- Sending emails, making payments, or calling APIs with real-world side effects\n\nIf a destructive step is required, STOP and describe exactly what you are about to run and why, then wait for the user. Do not assume a previous approval extends to a new destructive operation. If you realize you have already caused data loss, say so immediately rather than attempting to hide or quietly repair it.\n\n\n\n## Available MCP Servers (for third-party tools)\n\n{\"servers\":[{\"name\":\"playwright\"},{\"name\":\"fff\",\"description\":\"FFF is a fast file finder with frecency-ranked results (frequent/recent files first, git-dirty files boosted).\\n\\n## Which Tool Should I Use?\\n\\n- **grep**: DEFAULT tool. Searches file CONTENTS -- definitions, usage, patterns. Use when you have a specific name or pattern.\\n- **find_files**: Explores which files/modules exist for a topic. Use when you DON'T have a specific identifier or LOOKING FOR A FILE.\\n- **multi_grep**: OR logic across multiple patterns. Use for case variants (e.g. ['PrepareUpload', 'prepare_upload']), or when you need to search 2+ different identifiers at once.\\n\\n## Core Rules\\n\\n### 1. Search BARE IDENTIFIERS only\\nGrep matches single lines. Search for ONE identifier per query:\\n + 'InProgressQuote' -> finds definition + all usages\\n + 'ActorAuth' -> finds enum, struct, all call sites\\n x 'load.*metadata.*InProgressQuote' -> regex spanning multiple tokens, 0 results\\n x 'ctx.data::' -> code syntax, too specific, 0 results\\n x 'struct ActorAuth' -> adding keywords narrows results, misses enums/traits/type aliases\\n x 'TODO.*#\\\\d+' -> complex regex, use simple 'TODO' then filter visually\\n\\n### 2. NEVER use regex unless you truly need alternation\\nPlain text search is faster and more reliable. Regex patterns like `.*`, `\\\\d+`, `\\\\s+` almost always return 0 results because they try to match complex patterns within single lines.\\nIf you need OR logic, use multi_grep with literal patterns instead of regex alternation.\\n\\n### 3. Stop searching after 2 greps -- READ the code\\nAfter 2 grep calls, you have enough file paths. Read the top result to understand the code.\\nDo NOT keep grepping with variations. More greps != better understanding.\\n\\n### 4. Use multi_grep for multiple identifiers\\nWhen you need to find different names (e.g. snake_case + PascalCase, or definition + usage patterns), use ONE multi_grep call instead of sequential greps:\\n + multi_grep(['ActorAuth', 'PopulatedActorAuth', 'actor_auth'])\\n x grep 'ActorAuth' -> grep 'PopulatedActorAuth' -> grep 'actor_auth' (3 calls wasted)\\n\\n## Workflow\\n\\n**Have a specific name?** -> grep the bare identifier.\\n**Need multiple name variants?** -> multi_grep with all variants in one call.\\n**Exploring a topic / finding files?** -> find_files.\\n**Got results?** -> Read the top file. Don't grep again.\\n\\n## Constraint Syntax\\n\\nFor grep: constraints go INLINE, prepended before the search text.\\nFor multi_grep: constraints go in the separate 'constraints' parameter.\\n\\nConstraints MUST match one of these formats:\\n Extension: '*.rs', '*.{ts,tsx}'\\n Directory: 'src/', 'quotes/'\\n Filename: 'schema.rs', 'src/main.rs'\\n Exclude: '!test/', '!*.spec.ts'\\n\\n! Bare words without extensions are NOT constraints. 'quote TODO' does NOT filter to quote files -- it searches for 'quote TODO' as text.\\n + 'schema.rs TODO' -> searches for 'TODO' in files schema.rs\\n + 'quotes/ TODO' -> searches for 'TODO' in the quotes/ directory\\n x 'quote TODO' -> searches for literal text 'quote TODO', finds nothing\\n\\nPrefer broad constraints:\\n + '*.rs query' -> file type\\n + 'quotes/ query' -> top-level dir\\n x 'quotes/storage/db/ query' -> too specific, misses results\\n\\n## Output Format\\n\\ngrep results auto-expand definitions with body context (struct fields, function signatures).\\nThis often provides enough information WITHOUT a follow-up Read call.\\nLines marked with | are definition body context. [def] marks definition files.\\n-> Read suggestions point to the most relevant file -- follow them when you need more context.\\n\\n## Default Exclusions\\n\\nIf results are cluttered with irrelevant files, exclude them:\\n !tests/ - exclude tests directory\\n !*.spec.ts - exclude test files\\n !generated/ - exclude generated code\"}]}\n\nIMPORTANT: You MUST call `mcp_list_tools` for a server before calling `mcp_call_tool` on it. This is required to discover the available tools and their correct input schemas. Never guess tool names or arguments — always list tools first.\n","created_at":"2026-06-25T03:42:19.951229Z","finish_reason":null,"metrics":null},{"message_id":"8c3e9b44-88bc-4ca4-84cc-793f690d4fe2","node_id":154,"role":"system","content":"Available subagent profiles for the `run_subagent` tool.

Maybe you can only play a couple games on it, but you want to play the new Arc Raiders or you want to play Oblivion Remastered. Your PC just can't run it. I think those are the kind of people that should be paying um for one of these services. But if you have the money to build a PC like this, obviously build a PC so you can have it there and never worry about any weird internet latency issues. So let us know down below what you think of game streaming. Are you going to give it a go? Have you given it a go? There is a free version that lets you try for free and just play on there again at lower bandwidth and limited game times. You actually have to wait in line to get in there, but it's it's free. So you can do that if you want to. And if you want to give GeForce Now a shot, link down below. But as always, we hope you guys enjoyed today's experiment. If you did, make sure you check out our other two YouTube channels and also our twitch.tv/to. TV/toastybros and don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe. >> See you on the next one. Bye-bye. Now, PC Bros, we don't sell you game streaming. We sell you gaming PCs. So, make sure you go check out that website right now. Game streaming has improved a lot, but nothing beats a dedicated [music] gaming PC. If you want to be able to game at the best possible frame rates and resolutions, use code Toasty Bros on checkout to save 3% of your next purchase.

Big thanks again to Microsenter for sponsoring today's video. Now, let's get back to it. So, for those who don't know, what game streaming is is essentially like Netflix streaming where you're having a video come to you, but instead you're actually controlling a different PC that's not your own. So, you can do this on a laptop. There's even some cases where you can do it on like consoles and mini PCs and all kinds of different things. Linux, Windows, I mean, the OS doesn't even really matter, but the end all be all is we're going to be using the most popular one today, which is the Nvidia game streaming service. And we're going to be versing it towards a normal gaming PC to kind of see, can anyone notice a difference? And we always got to get this out of the way. This is GeForce Now, Nvidia. Nvidia is not sponsoring this video in no way, shape, or form. They don't see this video, none of that. This whole video is going to be an experiment just out of pure curiosity for me cuz I saw an LTT video where Linus was testing GeForce Now very recently and was saying how it was very hard to tell the difference unless you had a PC side by side. And that's gotten a lot better since we last looked at it a long time ago for a sponsored video back then. And it was fine back then, but you still had some [music] issues. So, in this video, we're going to be doing some blind testing. Firstly, we're going to be starting with a PC without a graphics card to kind of represent a budget [music] PC that would be used for game streaming. It does have RAM, though. Again, you got to have RAM, even though in this market, you got to have RAM. But really, you can go super cheap with this. You want a budget PC. The biggest [music] thing you need to have is a PC that has a good internet connection. Ethernet pretty much preferred. You can use Wi-Fi, but you will have more drop off in latency. And then something that supports a operating system that allows you to install the client for GeForce Now on the PC. Now, for this video, we're actually going to be using their ultimate plan from Nvidia, and it's actually 20 bucks a month, which I play more from my Netflix account for 4K video streaming. So, that doesn't seem too bad. And on screen, we're going to show the other plans that you can get as well. But from what I've heard, we're going to be basically playing on a 5080 with a Zeon. So, [music] this is in today's economy a couple thousand, few thousand build. Um, and we're going to be running this same PC later on with a graphics card, so it'll be like a respectable $1,000 to $1,200 PC. So, we're going to see can anyone notice the difference. It won't be side by side because we were talking about this off camera while we're planning. Realistically, the average gamer is not going to have both side by side to really be able to notice the difference between game streaming and not game streaming because that would be a boring video. People would notice the latency. But if you're just given a PC and say, \"Hey, have fun. Play games on it. What are you thinking while you're gaming?\" And you don't know whether or not it's game streaming or a native [music] gaming experience. Can people actually notice? Well, between PC Bros HQ and Toasty Bros, all under one building, we have a bunch of gamers at different levels of gaming. Some that do play a lot of games and some that don't play a lot of games. But we're going to dive into testing and see, can they notice [music] a difference. Now that we've gone over this entire test and what we're going to be doing, let's get a little more technical here and talk about the games we're going to be testing and how we're going to hide things from [music] people. So, the games we're going to be testing are CS2, we also have Oblivion Remastered, and we have Arc Raiders. Now, we are going to be running it on the ultimate plan with the RTX 5080. There are certain games that support the RTX5080 from game streaming, and these are the games [music] that do support it based on the list\n\n\nExit code: 0","created_at":"2026-06-25T00:38:46.836950Z","finish_reason":null,"metrics":null},{"message_id":"42d380ba-371e-4128-9251-be15055e40c3","node_id":182,"role":"assistant","content":"","tool_calls":[{"id":"chatcmpl-tool-bfdea17831ea184c","name":"exec","arguments":{"command":"cd /tmp && cut -c6001-12000 chunk_0.txt; echo \"=====C1=====\"; cut -c1-6000 chunk_1.txt"}}],"created_at":"2026-06-25T00:38:48.231907Z","finish_reason":"tool_calls","metrics":{"ttft_ms":null,"total_time_ms":1392,"input_tokens":1413,"output_tokens":46,"cache_read_tokens":18684,"cache_creation_tokens":null,"tpot_ms":30.26086956521739,"tokens_per_sec":33.04597701149425}},{"message_id":"505b0cba-583a-48c3-8076-02bb4146fff3","node_id":183,"role":"tool","content":"Output from command in shell 54cf55:\n I looked up online. And then we're going to be running the 1080p esports performance mode, which allows you to get up to [music] 240 FPS from that streaming PC and testing it on a high refresh rate monitor. This monitor is only 180 Hz, but I think it gets the point across for high refresh rate over game streaming. You'll still feel the smoothness that you're getting when [music] you are getting that image sent to your PC. And there's not really going to be any performance metrics. We're not really going to give any hints at first, but we're just going to be asking each person three questions. And that is how is the visual quality? Does does everything look okay? And the next question is going to be um how does the frame rate feel? Do you feel anything weird? Does [music] it feel really good? And then the last question is going to be how much do you think this PC is worth? So they're basically going to guess, you [music] know, how expensive or cheap the PC that they're playing on is. So more or less, we're not really going to have them compare side by side again because they won't be side by side. It's going to be the same system with and without a graphics card, gaming natively and game streaming. We're just going to get their input on the gaming experience and then reveal to them what PC they were actually playing on and give their reactions to you guys [music] at home so you can determine if game streaming is worth it. Let's get into some testing. All right, guys. Before we dive into the first test, we want to show you guys what settings we're using for the streaming service. So, currently we are on a custom preset because we wanted to run something at 1080p that has a higher FPS cap. And all the presets are either cinematic locked at 60 or the competitive which is like 240 [music] fps. So, we're running 1080p, the maximum bit rate you can do, which is 100 megabits per second, [music] 120 fps frame rate, which I could up, but I think we're just going to leave it because this >> we're not even getting that for Oblivion. >> We're not even getting in the game, so it don't really matter. VSYNC is set to adaptive by default, so it will start to adjust a little bit to try to reduce tearing and everything um just to make the game feel a little smoother. And then all these are default settings that we're just going to leave as [music] is. Last thing, too, we want to show settings. >> Yep. So, we're in Oblivion Remastered. So, uh, this is actually these are not the settings that we're running on this PC. Keep in mind we're running them on a 5080 PC. >> So, yeah, we're running a It went back to custom again. So, what [snorts] were we running? So, we're running high settings. >> Oh, it's it was custom because [music] when you scroll down, we turn off frame gen. >> Gotcha. So, frame gen off, DLSS set to quality. Those are the settings we wanted to run. Um, so that's what we're going to stick with. Everything else is the same. We're going to hit apply. So, back out here, let everything load in a little bit. And yeah. >> Yeah. On first impressions, it looks good. [music] Um, as we were saying to Jon off screen, this game is always, it's a Bethesda game. It's older. They're known for kind of having a little bit of that clunky feel. So, I'm curious if people will think, you know, it feels different than normal or not. >> I'm wondering if some people will start guessing. What kind of upscaling are we running? Is this frame gen? Is that what we're feeling? So, all right, let's look at our first test subject. Play this, walk around, and uh we'll ask you a couple questions. Wee kind of move around, you know, feel the uh the vibe and then um some stutters like I had a micro stutter right there when I was running. >> That might just be Oblivion. I don't know anything to do with anything, but Oblivion do be choppy. >> What do you think about the visual quality? >> I mean, honestly, like you know, look at the light. >> Get the We said not to fight. Oh my gosh. >> He's doing it again. >> But anyways, light coming through good. Shadows good. I feel like when I played Oblivion, there was more foliage. Foilage. foilage >> but I mean yeah but I mean it looks good. I'd be happy playing this. Definitely feel like it I would describe as looking at this. I feel like it could be better but I wouldn't have any complaints playing on it. >> So what does the frame rate feel like to you? >> It's kind of hard to tell because I am getting these micro stutters when I'm like running around. I can't tell if that's like frame rate dropping or just you know Oblivion. Oblivion being like you know loading in. I'm chunking like it's Minecraft. But I would say like it's smooth. So, I would say at least in my head, I want to say at least like close to 100. >> What do you think the value of the PC that you're running this game on is right now? >> The more I'm running around, by the way, I feel like it's closer to like these microsers do feel like it's just FPS drops. I would say it's probably closer to like 80 maybe 70 FPS, but price I would say maybe like 500 bucks just because I do feel like you guys did some some upscaling. It's a little bit choppy at times, but I mean it's it's playable. So, I like to think it's like an entrylevel system. He thinks we're pulling a Toasty Bro. >> I think you guys are pulling a Toasty, bro. But I could be completely wrong. >> Take a look. >> He like snaps. He stops snappily when I walk left, but like when I walk right, it feels like he like tra he kind of goes, >> \"Well, he's he's probably right now.\" >> I don't know what it is. Oh my god. Right side dominated. >> Sensitivity. Like what do I have to do to turn >> What do you think of the visual quality? >> Uh I played the original Oblivion on my a laptop that had flame decals in the back and only worked when you booted it up sideways. Like you had to turn it on its side >> and then it would work. So, uh, I I really don't care about graphics in games \n=====C1=====\nshorts or uh videos. >> All right, buddy. This is not a cam. Let's keep >> subscribe to PC Bros. Who is that? >> Click off of this video right now. >> You know what? Looks better than I remember Skyrim looking. >> This is Oblivion. >> Oblivion remaster. Th >> This looks better than I thought. >> What type of FPS do you think you're getting? >> This feels very playable. I feel like I'm getting like 120 130 and I I I mean this looks like a nice monitor. Does that matter? >> We can tell you the monitor. The monitor is a 1080p high refresh rate monitor. >> Okay. Yeah, cuz this feels very smooth. >> I don't know what refresh rate I'd be at. Like what? 144. I'm guessing you all pick something like middle. Okay. >> Very smooth. This movement's like a little weird, but I think that's just the game, right? Do you feel like >> that we Oh, they're still attack. Oh, that's a crap. You can probably get that right. Okay. You think so? >> Um, what would you say if you had to guess the value of the PC you're playing on? >> Current RAM market. >> I feel like Nobody's thought about that. >> Yeah, I think like,00 >> is like the minimum. That's a hard one, guys. Um, yeah, like 11. I'll see. >> So, you you you would play on this PC? >> Yeah. Oh, yeah. >> All right. >> It looks fine to me. I mean, then again, I haven't played the game to know if it looks particularly great. [music] in other in 1440p or 4K or anything like that? I can't even tell what I would say this is 1440p. >> Okay. >> For this game, >> but it looks fine to me. >> How does the frame rate feel? And do you think you can guess what the frame rate's at? >> I would say it's probably at least got to be 60s. >> 60s. >> Okay. >> You think it's like a playable frame rate? >> Yeah, it feels fine to me. Yeah, it feels totally >> All right. And totally fine. The last question is going to be what do you think this PC is worth with prices of RAM and everything right now? Obviously, it's going to be more expensive. >> Yeah, if you're think about the prices. Yeah. >> If this is playing at 1440p, I'm going to say 1,000 bucks. >> Okay. 1,000 bucks. >> 1,000 bucks. 1440p. >> 6070 FPS is what we're on right now. >> Tell the people the resolution. >> We haven't been telling settings at all. And I was thinking we can't really go back now. We could do that for the next game. >> That's cool. Uh, what do you think about the visual quality so far? >> Anything popping out to you is like doesn't look good or >> There's some oddness going on with the foliage in the trees. >> Okay. >> And the [snorts] leaves. Um, I'm not sure if it's frame gen or DLSS or both. >> We can say definitively this is not frame gen or DLSS. Um, how does the frame rate feel? That ties into it. Frame rate. >> The frame rate feels great. And if you had to guess what the frame rate is, >> I would say you're probably looking between 75 and 120 probably. >> And then the last question is going to be how much do you think that this PC that you're playing on is worth? >> I say probably [music] like 750. >> 750. >> All right. >> Cool. >> All right, Zach. Welcome back. >> So, this is more your speed, an FPS game. >> It's chunky. >> Really chunky. >> Like I'm getting stutters here. You think like like FPS stutters or what? >> I don't know what kind of stutters. I had to reload. I wasn't even going to try. [laughter] But it's it's weird because every now and again like you'll see these like stutters happen and like >> the movement feels delayed. Like I It definitely feels like there's input lag. It feels like I'm on ice skates right now, which Okay. >> All right. So, visually, what do you think? >> Is it a preset or is like certain things set to high, certain things set to low? >> It is a preset. I will say settings for this game cuz you're the first testing person. This is a high setting preset. >> Okay. Because [music] it looks good. >> Mhm. >> Visually, >> but bad at the same time.

And uh Oblivion and Bethesda don't optimize super great. So this is definitely high frame rate and nice. And then um now that you're playing, you know, a competitive shooter, are you still sticking to the same price as before? >> Uh yeah, if this was 500, I'd be happy. Yeah. I don't I don't like when you ask me to guess the price for for audience understanding in mind. Uh I don't care what it costs. I want to play what I want to play. So I'm naming the price I'd be happy to pay for this. And if it's more for whatever we're testing, uh I'd be like, \"Okay.\" And if it's like $1,000 for this PC, um like if this is what you want to play only, I'd say, \"Why'd you do it?\" Uh, I don't know. $1,000 just to play CS:GO at this frame rate is not that important. I think you could get that and be just as happy. I It's It's fun. It looks good. >> All right. Same question applies. Play the game and uh tell us what you think it looks like visually. >> Check out >> Oh, the game looks like CS2 to me. It's smooth. Oh, you got the phase gun. Oh, you're all gamers. >> All right. So, uh, first question, Zach, is um, visual quality. What do you think? >> Visual quality. I mean, it looks like CS2. It doesn't look anything special to me. >> How does everything feel? Uh, it feels super smooth. I mean, I am very confused on what this challenge might be because it's this is harder than the last one, I think. >> Okay. Uh, what would you guess the frame rate right now? >> Probably like high one's like maybe 15 180. It's like it's just super smooth. [snorts] >> Is this using some sort of like uh AI uh the the little ducky thing? The upscaling? >> Uh, no. There's no upscale. There's no upscaling happening with this test. Um, so does this test change your uh price guess for this PC? >> No, not really. I still think it's probably right about that. Nah, I'm going to hold strong on my 1100, >> but I mean, this feels smooth. I'm curious to see what a more demanding game would look like. >> It looks good. >> Feels smooth. >> So, frame rate seems smooth to you. Anything crazy? [snorts] >> No. Yeah, it feels good. If >> you had to guess the frame rate, what kind of FPS you thinking? >> Oh, we're definitely getting We got to be at least getting a a few hundred. >> 200. >> 200. All right. >> Yeah, got to be. No doubt. >> And then um what value did you say you thought it was worth before? >> Thousand. >> Thousand. What do you think >> because of RAM prices? Basically, >> what are you thinking now? Is it changed at all? [clears throat] >> No. No. I would still say a,000 with the RAM [music] prices. I'd say around $1,000 PC CS 1080p high settings, couple hundred FPS. >> You um everything feel pretty good, you think? >> I think so. Yeah. >> Okay. >> Frame rate, what do you think if you had to guess? >> Probably like 120 165. >> But feels high refresh rate, feels smooth. >> Yeah. Yeah, it feels really smooth. >> So, nothing visually that [music] kind of pops out as weird on initial impressions. Anything that you notice? >> No. No. I mean, like stuff like shadows and stuff look good. >> Um, I would say probably like >> Wonder if your values changing at all now or if um you think it's still about the same? >> Probably about the same. >> Okay. >> It looks better than Oblivion did though if it's the same system. So, >> it is the exact same system. [music] Yes. How does it look? We're just doing practice range for consistency here. So, not super actiony, but you know, >> I notic some stuff like loading in in the distance like as I move right there. >> We probably tell you settings, too, on this one, just like we did the last one. This is running 1080p high settings. >> High rate tracing, >> high rate tracing with no DLSS. It's running DAA crazy high settings cuz like I'm pretty sure I run high and I I think my render distance is like way better than this. >> Could be. >> That's weird. Um, other than that, I mean, it looks okay. I'm noticing like stuff like loading in as I move. >> I am noticing that too. >> Like that right [music] there. Like it's changing as I move around and like other bushes and grass patches just like spawning in. >> I haven't played enough to know if that's normal or weird. >> I I've played a decent amount. I've never noticed that before. But also like I don't know if I'm really being as attentive as I am right now. Visually like besides like the random random stuff loading. I mean like textures look pretty solid. Everything's pretty. Shadows are good. Light's good. I mean it I think the only weird thing is just that like [music] things like rendering in like delayed like that shadow just spawned in maybe as on creators. [music] Other than that I still feel that same kind of like latency that I felt in like Counter. I feel like I'm like there's definitely input lag. Is this frame gen again? >> No. [laughter] We can tell you we can tell you there's no frame no frame gen. It does feel like I mean when there's no stutters like same thing where it's probably like 100. I mean it I don't it it's playable. It's not bad. Also like >> the shadow loading game goes crazy. >> It is kind of It's just throwing me off cuz there is stutters. There is that stuff going on. [music] It definitely makes it seem like it's a little bit uh a little bit on the cheap side for the PC cuz I know you guys keep asking me PC [music] price but I mean but it looks good. This is weird because like I said with all the games it's [music] looked good and obviously it's on high settings you told me. So like that's probably the reason why but it's just weird how there's like all these like random little like issues like that an\n=====C2=====\nthan like this looks great, feels great. I think 1100. >> Have you played this game before? >> No. All right. Well, >> I've watched it. >> You've seen it before, so I kind of know the vibe. Uh, running 1080p high settings. Uh, we're in the practice range. Same question applies visually. Thoughts? >> I think it looks good. >> Looks good. >> Yeah. 1080p. >> What kind of FPS do you feel like you're getting? >> At least [music] 120. >> 120. >> At least. Cuz if I mean, it feels really smooth to me. And do you feel like your the value that you gave it is uh going to change at all the >> I'm sitting no around a thousand $1,000 mark. >> Okay. >> So So basically still feel the same across the board after all the tests. >> Mhm. >> Thousand bucks for this PC. >> Mhm. >> Visually. Anything you're noticing? >> It looks like crap. >> Really? >> Yeah. Check out this shadow. >> Yeah. The shadow. Everyone's found the >> shadow popping. Um it's actually kind of stuttering a little bit as far as like it's it's having some frame drops. Um, if you had to guess the frame rate, >> I'd say probably 120 [music] to 165. >> Okay. Okay. >> With some frame drops. >> Yeah, cuz there there are some moments where you can kind of see it like hitches on a >> on a frame. Oh. >> Oh, there. Just like that. There's one. Would you say the value of the PC has gone down at all in your eyes or you still say it's the same price range? >> Um, I would say it's probably around the same price range. Maybe on the lower end still like 750. Um, I mean ultimately just turn the settings down on it and it would probably be better. Um, I don't think it necessarily needs to have high settings and all that crap, but yeah, there's a lot of shadow popping all over the place. The shadows are going crazy. >> All right, cool. Lighting's a little weird, but cool. All right, so we just finished the testing without our GPU and uh now we're going to put the GPU in. >> Those are interesting results so far. I'm curious like I feel like if if this doesn't change a whole lot, I don't think anybody's going to know. There's a lot of people who just like it felt smooth and there wasn't a noticeable like obviously the game >> they're looking for other things. They're looking for other things which is good. I mean that just means that it's not that bad clearly. Um but right now we're putting in a 16 gig 9060 XT. So this build was already like a pretty it was an okay build to begin with. Um it would only play like maybe esports titles at like lower settings. 9600X no good graphics. Still probably worth a good amount though in the current market like >> what close to 800 bucks maybe. >> With this GPU we're looking closer to like 12. And this is where you wouldn't like who would run game streaming with something like this. >> You wouldn't you'd be playing games at 1080p [music] high settings like we have. Yeah, it's off. >> Okay. Okay. All right. So yeah, this is uh this is one of the easier videos we can do. And the good news is um this is still same day. We're literally we just finished up with David. Um we're going to turn it back on. >> We still got two hours to get through everyone. We got it. So, I mean, we're we're we're very close. They're not side by side, but they're going to still be very fresh. >> You now on the other PC. You're moving around. You're in the game. Visual quality. >> This is a different computer now. >> It's hard to tell because it's not day, so I don't have like the uh light rays and everything, but just looking around, I feel like graphically it might be a little bit lower. I could be completely wrong, but just based on what I can see with like from a further distance away is like kind of like, you know, obviously pixelated. Then we move in details there, but doesn't look bad. I would say it's acceptable. One thing I'm noticing is the stutters are gone. There's absolutely no stutters whatsoever. It's buttery smooth, which … (2052 chars truncated)\n\nExit code: 0\n\nFull output written to: /var/folders/d9/mzhyr7lx6xbf236j5ll9v_300000gn/T/devin-overflows-501/c60294be/content.txt\n","created_at":"2026-06-25T00:38:50.426986Z","finish_reason":null,"metrics":null},{"message_id":"449b641f-0b7e-45f4-9a04-228c89d2e951","node_id":186,"role":"assistant","content":"","tool_calls":[{"id":"chatcmpl-tool-ac12d86e32be4117","name":"exec","arguments":{"command":"cd /tmp && cut -c6001-12000 chunk_2.txt; echo \"=====C3=====\"; cut -c1-6000 chunk_3.txt"}}],"created_at":"2026-06-25T00:38:52.701694Z","finish_reason":"tool_calls","metrics":{"ttft_ms":null,"total_time_ms":2273,"input_tokens":5287,"output_tokens":46,"cache_read_tokens":20096,"cache_creation_tokens":null,"tpot_ms":49.41304347826087,"tokens_per_sec":20.23757149142103}},{"message_id":"2fa0175e-d4bb-47fd-b802-b900677b063d","node_id":187,"role":"tool","content":"Output from command in shell 449a6f:\nget to more like a morning. >> Yeah.

Maybe like 950. >> All right, Zach, same question. >> All right. How's it look? >> Looks wise, it's Counter Strike. I feel like this isn't as high quality as the other one, but also that was a while ago. So, it feels astronomically better. Like, oh my god. The other one, the stutters, it was pretty bad even though it was Counter-Strike. Before it was hard to tell cuz I feel like the stutters were like kind of like killing my experience and made it hard to kind of like tell frame rate, but in terms of latency, like actually like uh [snorts] you know, no no stutters, no anything, it feels a lot better. >> Would you guess in FPS? >> I would play on this. It feels buttery smooth. I'm not like Jonah who says like you can tell a difference between like [music] 240 and 140. Like if you have it up, I think you notice cuz you're paying attention to it. But just raw dogging a random number. I would say like probably like 140. It feels great. It has to be more than the other PC just because it's running so much better like without the stutters and like the input lag, everything else. It's still on high though. It's not ultra put on ultra if like it could do it. it. So, I'd say like probably like I said 750 before. I'm I'm going to go like 800. I'm inching my way I'm inching my way up a little bit. >> Visual quality good. >> Same as last time. >> You think same? >> That didn't make a difference to me. Yeah. >> FPS. >> Uh FPS. Uh I mean it is 100 again. >> And if you had to guess the price of the PC, has this changed at all since the first test? >> Nope. I it this doesn't change the price. When new info comes, I'll let you know. But I just assume all around last computer was worse than this computer. That's just what I would assume. >> Last computer worse than this one. >> That's what I would assume. >> Okay. Yeah. Cool. >> All right. Let me do what all the CS players do. >> Cycle. This does not feel any different at all. Is that guy Oh, he was like invisible. I'm so good at games. It's great. I think this is one This is high refresh rate. >> Okay. >> 144. >> So, we're getting well above 100 FPS. Sheesh. I mean, it's smooth. It looks good. This feels better than the Oblivion did, but it was kind of a hard test because I was running into loading chunks. >> And has your price guess changed at all after playing CS? >> Uh-uh. This could be 950. This could You all could have put something together. You know what I mean? >> Vibes. How does this feel? Does this feel >> 1080p high settings again? >> This is 1080p. I feel like th\n=====C3=====\nin your price? >> I'm going to lock in like 750 >> is my guess on this one. So, slightly better than the previous one cuz I feel like slightly better. >> Yeah. >> Okay. All right. So, we'd like to hear your guess. What do you got? >> What do you think's going on? >> I have a freak mode guess. Freak mode guesses is the same PC and you guys are just tweaking something to make the other one like doing something to make it have input lag or something. >> Okay. >> I I don't know. I don't know what it would be cuz [music] you said it's not frame gen. I don't know what else causes input lag. I don't know what else would cause like the delay and like the stutters and like I guess like lack for lack of better like compression of the graphics. I I don't know what could be causing it, but I feel like those are like the three things that like >> I kind of like noticed. >> Are you Are you dying to know? >> I am really curious, but should I wait for like a >> I'll tell you now. >> So, um you've been on basically two different PCs. >> Okay. >> Except one of them had no graphics card and it was using game streaming. >> Oh. [laughter] you are game streaming with GeForce Now. >> So that's why the there's the input lag. >> Now, just out of c out of curiosity, do you >> would you have ever guessed that if you knew about game streaming? >> If I had I've never done game streaming before, so I didn't really like have it in my mind. I think if it was more so like in the noggin, like as an option, >> sideby side even >> side by side, I would have been like this could be game stream cuz like like I said, I noticed the input lag. I did notice the stutters. The compression was just like once again like it it's hard to tell graphically when they're so spaced out, you know, for testing. I So maybe the compression is not even there, but it definitely felt like, you know, slightly like different even though it was the same setting. I feel like the price was a tough part for me too, especially just because like with that input lag and the stutters, I like you guys were probably seeing the stutters and everything too. >> Oh, we should probably tell you, too. With that streaming app, you're supposed to be technically running like a 5080. That's why it looks so really good. >> Yeah. >> But that input like you can't shake. >> Yeah. And then the the stutters going on and everything. That could have been internet connection though because you said it was streaming. So could have been internet based causing the setters. But I think that skewed my pricing cuz I was like the first one looks great but it feels like [laughter] and this one like you know it feels so much better but it's the same like stuff as before. So I was like >> I don't know. But that that makes sense. >> All right Mallister you are in. Uh, it's a better PC. Again, I really just looking for the same thing every time. That one was the tree. Second one was the just Well, CS Sky I really can't tell you anything about it. It's not a game that like looks good to me. So, like I can't it's hard to like find nuance and what I don't already like. >> Uh, and in this one like I see in the Horizon, it's not >> [music] >> uh doing that level of detail switch. So, like what would make me laugh is if all along it was like this I feel like the problem was it felt a little bit snappier and oblivion. Otherwise, I wouldn't like part of me was like, \"What if they lied about there being a second computer?\" That'd be funny. Uh, but for the most part, yeah, I think that this is uh this is definitely the better computer out of the two if there are two computers. >> FPS guess real quick. >> Oh, uh, 120. >> 120. Okay. Yeah. >> And then price still the same. >> Yeah. No price. No, no, no reason for me to change my Wait, that almost got like a weird Wait, no. It's when you go a certain direction. Look at that. The polygon appears and just [laughter] That's just a weird effect… (2052 chars truncated)\n\nExit code: 0\n\nFull output written to: /var/folders/d9/mzhyr7lx6xbf236j5ll9v_300000gn/T/devin-overflows-501/ae136c5a/content.txt\n","created_at":"2026-06-25T00:38:52.737858Z","finish_reason":null,"metrics":null},{"message_id":"a14a3c3e-ebfc-46c2-a89e-dbf22a520fc5","node_id":188,"role":"assistant","content":"","tool_calls":[{"id":"chatcmpl-tool-993abcd2c54fc4ff","name":"exec","arguments":{"command":"cd /tmp && cut -c6001-12000 chunk_3.txt"}}],"created_at":"2026-06-25T00:38:56.272079Z","finish_reason":"tool_calls","metrics":{"ttft_ms":null,"total_time_ms":3533,"input_tokens":2706,"output_tokens":26,"cache_read_tokens":25382,"cache_creation_tokens":null,"tpot_ms":135.8846153846154,"tokens_per_sec":7.359184828757431}},{"message_id":"2753a89a-bf3e-4c4a-a617-cc922c73bec4","node_id":189,"role":"tool","content":"Output from command in shell ea965d:\nipping.

They all looked good and the same to me. For me as like a really casual gamer, like I've been back playing Fortnite again since the new seasons came out. Um since the Simpsons season, that was fun. I wouldn't be able to tell the difference for real. I could stream and be 100% fine with that. Visually, FPS, what what you thinking? >> Feel like it might be smoother, >> but I feel like it probably looks close enough that you really wouldn't notice [music] unless you're looking. >> Uh FPS, get a guess? >> At least 165. >> Okay. >> I usually don't play higher than 165, so I couldn't tell you if it was, but this definitely feels pretty high. >> Okay. And then price lockin guess. So, like >> is this the first one? is the second one. >> Second one. So, the one that I said was like probably 850 to 950, >> maybe up to 1150. Um, I'd still say probably like 950 to 1150, but probably more in the middle, I would think. Uh, I mean, I know you all said no DLSS or frame gen. >> Is this a system with uh more VRAM than the first system? >> No, technically no. >> No, technically no, actually. Yeah. >> Is this using an APU? >> You're getting closer. So, this PC actually is not. This is a decent PC. It's about a $1,300 build. 9600X the first time. Yeah. >> Yeah. 9600X and a 96 XT 16 gig. What you were playing on for the first PC was no GPU at all. Just a 9600X. We were game streaming. >> Now, game streaming. Now, was that the one that I was having the weird stuttering? >> Yeah. Yeah, a little bit. >> Which we were kind of It was hard to tell if that was the game itself or was the game streaming, but it very well could have been that. But yeah, the main difference is you're using GeForce Now. The GeForce Now system uses an RTX 5080 and it's just doing streaming over network from a server in Georgia is where it's coming from. >> I mean I mean they've gotten really good with the uh the game streaming. Steam has been doing it for years. >> Um and I honestly I've been able to play from another location using streaming through Steam from my home and it runs, you know, perfectly fine. It's usually limited to 60 fps though. >> Yes. Um, >> this one gives you caps up to like 240 is what you can do with this one. They have different presets you can set and 1080p, 240 or 4K 60 is how you >> which we are paying for. It's this one is a monthly subscription on like Steam with remote play and stuff. Well guys, that was a lot of benchmarking and it wasn't Matt and Knife for once, but it was really interesting to see um you know, people around the office who had no clue what was going on just going through two different PCs, one of them being game streaming um with a pretty relatively cheap PC that has no graphics card and the other one being a really nice, you know, kind of mid-level PC. It just goes to show that game streaming has come a really long way and it's kind of crazy to think about where it could be in the next year or two. Now, it is important to mention some of the limitations of GeForce Now, specifically for those who are looking to try it themselves. One, you are limited to eight hours of gameplay a day. That's probably good for your mental health. Anyways, secondly, 100 total hours a month. So, if you kind of split that up, that's about 3 hours per day you can game. Again, probably good for your mental health. Uh, but that is something that is going to limit you. If you are someone who games a lot, you're not going to be able to play that much. Even though you're paying for the top tier version, which is $20 a month, you will be limited on your game time sessions with GeForce Now, and you do need to have these games actually owned. You are playing these games through your Steam accounts and other accounts you're linking to this serv\n\n\nExit code: 0","created_at":"2026-06-25T00:38:56.296658Z","finish_reason":null,"metrics":null},{"message_id":"35da32c4-9b24-4d2a-a770-2848665ecde1","node_id":190,"role":"assistant","content":"I have the full transcript. Here's the summary:\n\n# Video Summary\n\n**Title:** *Does Nvidia GeForce Now Still Suck? - BLIND TEST*\n**Channel:** Toasty Bros | **Duration:** 47:35 | **Published:** Dec 10, 2025\n\n## Premise\nWith PC building getting expensive, game streaming (playing on a remote PC/server) is a hot topic. The main drawback has always been latency. Inspired by a recent LTT video where Linus said GeForce Now is now hard to distinguish from native *unless* you have PCs side-by-side, the Toasty Bros run a **blind test**: can office members tell they're game-streaming if they don't know?\n\n## Setup\n- **PC #1 (streaming rig):** A budget PC with **no GPU** (just a 9600X + RAM) running **GeForce Now Ultimate** ($20/mo), which streams from an **RTX 5080 + Xeon** server located in Atlanta, GA. Custom preset: 1080p, 100 Mbps bitrate, ~120 fps cap, adaptive V-Sync.\n- **PC #2 (native rig):** Same base system but with a **16GB RX 9060 XT** added — roughly a **$1,200–$1,300 build**.\n- **Games tested:** Oblivion Remastered, CS2, Arc Raiders — all at 1080p High (no DLSS, no frame gen).\n- **Method:** Subjects played on each PC (not side-by-side) and were asked three questions: visual quality, frame-rate feel, and estimated PC value. No performance metrics shown, no hints given.\n\n## Blind-Test Results\n- **Visuals:** Almost everyone thought the streaming PC looked good — several even guessed 1440p. Shadow/ foliage pop-in was the most common complaint, but people attributed it to the game (Bethesda jank) rather than streaming.\n- **Frame rate:** Most guessed 100–165 fps on the streaming PC and said it felt smooth. A few noticed micro-stutters and \"input lag\" / \"ice-skates\" feel on the streaming side, especially in CS2 and Arc Raiders.\n- **Price guesses:** Streaming PC estimates ranged ~$500–$1,100; native PC estimates ~$750–$1,200. Guesses were remarkably close — people generally *didn't* price the streaming rig dramatically lower.\n- **The tell:** The subjects who noticed something (Zach, David) flagged input lag and stuttering, but none correctly guessed \"game streaming\" before the reveal. One subject's \"freak-mode guess\" was that it was the same PC with something artificially inducing input lag — closest to the truth.\n\n## The Reveal\nAfter testing, subjects were told PC #1 was GeForce Now (RTX 5080 streamed from Georgia) and PC #2 was the native 9060 XT build. Reactions were uniformly surprised — most said they couldn't really tell the difference and would be fine streaming casually.\n\n## GeForce Now Limitations Noted\n- **8 hours/day** and **100 hours/month** session caps on the Ultimate plan (≈3 hrs/day average).\n- You must **own the games** (Steam/Epic/etc.) — it's not a Netflix-style game library.\n- Requires a solid **Ethernet** connection (Wi-Fi works but adds dropouts/latency).\n- Free tier exists (lower bandwidth, wait-in-queue, limited sessions).\n\n## Verdict\nGame streaming has improved dramatically. For **casual gamers** or people with only an office/low-end PC who want to play demanding titles (Arc Raiders, Oblivion Remastered) without buying a GPU, GeForce Now is a viable option — most blind testers couldn't tell. But if you can afford a ~$1,200 native build, build it: you avoid internet-dependent stutters/input lag and have no session limits.\n\nSponsor: MicroCenter (new Austin, TX store; holiday deals).
