Cowork, Swift, and AppleScript

Trying to use Claude Cowork for coding instead of Claude Code as it has a nice interface to handle parallel sessions at once. I really like the feel of the terminal though. Also, Swift apps are fun. I built a toolbar button that easily toggles between light/dark mode themes. Today I discovered AppleScript, that was recently announced in... 1993. It's hilarious.

tell application "System Events"
    tell appearance preferences to set dark mode to not dark mode
end tell

Oh and I've abandoned OpenClaw for now. Way too much configuration and pain just to have a worse interface for building stuff. I think the sweet spot there is calendar management, trello cards, web search, etc.
