Lord Bean (@lifeisameeme) reportedMost browser automation tools spin up a brand new, empty browser for the AI agent to drive. chrome-cdp-skill does the opposite. It connects to the Chrome you already have open. Same tabs, same logged-in sessions, same page state mid-workflow. No re-login, no cookie exports, no separate profile. Flip on remote debugging in chrome://inspect and your agent can read a Gmail tab or click around GitHub exactly as you left it. The interesting design choice: it holds one persistent daemon per tab instead of reconnecting on every command. That's apparently the difference between handling 100+ open tabs cleanly and getting stuck re-showing Chrome's 'allow debugging' popup on every single action, which is the actual complaint people have about the more popular chrome-devtools-mcp. 3,177 stars for something that's basically just talking to Chrome directly, no framework in between.

TableShaker (@Table_Shaker1) reported@younggee704 @propdaofinance Yes, after an account purchase, the login details will be sent to your Gmail. If it's a crypto firm like PropDao, you'll trade crypto pairs on it

James (@jamescoder12) reportedThe full transformation 20 minutes, one afternoon. Before: 1. 12,847 unread emails in one flat inbox 2. 85 new emails per day, all mixed together 3. 2 hours/day spent on email 4. Important messages missed weekly 5. No labels. No filters. No system. After: 6. Categories split incoming emails into 5 automatic tabs 7. 7 filters auto-sort, auto-label, and auto-archive 8. 5 color-coded labels for visual priority 9. Multiple Inboxes dashboard showing 5 organized sections 10. Keyboard shortcuts cutting processing time in half 11. Auto-Advance eliminating inbox round-trips 12. Nudges catching forgotten replies 13. 30-second Undo Send as a permanent safety net 14. "Waiting" label tracking every pending response Emails requiring attention per day: 15-20 (down from 85). Time spent on email per day: 35-45 minutes (down from 2 hours). Important emails missed per week: 0 (down from 3-5). Same Gmail. Same account. Same $0/month. 9 settings. 20 minutes. Once.

Empedocles (@ongonnan) reportedEssentially, it's pulling from any data associated with the gmail you would naturally have a Google account under... because that's how it works. So if you sign in, on pretty much any model, it COULD use the user account details to scan all things connected to that address.

Khaled Shadid (@IamKhaledShadid) reportedWhen we started NeuralAgent back in April 2025 it was one of the first agents in the world that uses a user's personal computer, not a computer on the cloud, thats what made it to spread to 180 countries and tens of thousands of users in a short amount of time. Today, I am excited to announce that we are experimenting with something new, something called NeuralOS, it's the next evolution of the Neural experience. With NeuralOS, intelligence stops being an app you open and close and it becomes the OS itself, it becomes the computer itself, it's always on and always ready. Imagine for example you are now on the gmail interface, and you say 'Hey Neural, send a reply to John here', and it just understands, it just knows and in milliseconds types the reply, asks for your approval and then sends it. Or if you are on an interface and there was an error and you say "Hey Neural, fix this" and it just knows! It just works across any app, any screen, any interface, you call it via a keyboard shortcut or voice and ask it to do something, and it does it in milliseconds. Now that we have the Neural fast model, I feel now is the time for this experiment. Stay tuned for NeuralOS! It will be an OS layer that's always on that can run on Windows and macOS and soon Linux as well! As always, we would love to hear your feedback!

Naman Rohandiya (@NamanRohandiya) reportedEvery company has a second brain. The problem is it's scattered across Slack, Gmail, Notion, Google Drive, docs, and hundreds of conversations. We're building Octopus to unify it. Connect your tools, ask anything, and get answers backed by citations.

SoEmailSecurity (@Soemailsecurity) reportedEvery login lure email has detectable signals. Sending address: not from the real platform. Gmail account or lookalike domain. Greeting: generic. "Dear Customer" not your actual name. Urgency: artificial deadline. 24 hours.

Aswin (@akrv1) reported@openshipio Over the past decade, I have setup many flavours of mail servers only to realise most commercial mail filters verify originating server and Gmail notoriously never delivers emails outside a few providers.

Helio (@helioim_ai) reportedHelio AI teammates now connect directly to the tools where your work lives. → Connect Notion, Slack, Gmail, GitHub, Figma, X, Bitly, or Outlook and your AI teammate doesn't just tell you what needs to be done. → They write the doc, post the update, open the issue, send the follow-up, publish the post. The work doesn't stop in a chat thread. It goes where it was always supposed to go.

Manol T. (@manol_ai) reported@syakirbuilds Yeah i thought a lot. MCP has built in authentication oauth2.1 protocol which makes it production ready.

James (@jamescoder12) reportedFirst why most inboxes are a disaster. It's not your fault. Gmail defaults every account to one setting: all emails arrive in one flat list. No categories. No priority. No filtering. Everything from your most important client to a promotional email from a store you bought shoes from in 2019 lands in the same stream. The average professional receives 85+ emails per day. Over a year, that's 22,000+ messages arriving in one undifferentiated pile. Gmail has 15+ organizational tools built in. Labels. Filters. Stars. Categories. Multiple Inboxes. Priority Inbox. Nudges. Snooze. Auto-advance. All of them are turned off or unconfigured by default. The coach's framework: "Gmail isn't broken. It's unconfigured. The difference between email chaos and email clarity is 20 minutes in Settings. Once. The system runs itself after that."

clayne (@0xclayn) reportedHE FIRED HIMSELF FROM THE BORING HALF OF HIS JOB Cost: one Mac mini. Already sitting there, doing nothing. He didn't hire anyone. He gave a computer one instruction and walked away. "Every Monday - check the inbox for new leads, pull their company info, draft a personal follow-up, put it on my calendar." That's it. That's the whole ask. The machine took it from there. Split it into steps. Assigned each step to a different model. ʼ Ran the whole thing without touching a single browser tab. Here's the part that actually matters: → Opus writes the email → Gemini does the research → GPT checks it against the CRM → three models, one outcome, zero copy-pasting between them It's not a chatbot answering questions in a window. It's living on the actual machine - opening real apps, editing real spreadsheets, touching real files, the way an employee would. He tested it on the most boring task he had: pull weekly revenue from QuickBooks, build the report, drop it in Slack. Every Monday, 8am, no reminders needed. An hour of work. Down to five minutes. Every single week, forever, without him remembering to do it. Outlook. Gmail. Teams. HubSpot. Whatever's already running - it just plugs in and gets the full picture, not a guess. A real hire for this costs a salary, a ramp-up, a desk. This cost a machine that was already collecting dust. Most people are still asking AI questions in a chat box. He gave it a job.

AREF (@AREFCA) reportedI have two pcs. One thinkpad (old - 2016). One Lenovo yoga. I use GOOGLE DRIVE, one drive, iCloud and have loads of duplication, incongruent but related functional records and apps (eg ppt, slides , excel, sheets) + email addresses (multiple) across outlook, Gmail, iCloud). Additionally, I have suffered a debilitating stroke that has made organizing and tracking personal projects, records, correspondence a mess On top of that, I use things like GROK + adobe and chat gpt that are intentionally or unintentionally not compatible. Lastly I use an iPhone and have an iMac. Given how much tech companies are imposing prompts for ai options on any task and are requesting access to the same files, I can’t keep track of anything. If I ask AI, I will get multiple paragraph explanations on options, choices, and other extraneous information that further complicate the decision to decide how to tackle the issues below I need the following: 1 — remove duplicative stuff that eats up space for no reason ( e.g., I have an iPhone and take my pictures there come so I don’t need Google to have the same photos because I don’t even use that for photos, and I don’t need Microsoft to get photos because no one interacts with photos on a pc 2 - a native drive structure that permits across the platforms, it just gives me one central source of truth on where records and documents and file files sit 3 - for the above item, in ideal world. It is the Windows drive structure that I used in my career, which was effectively a network drive that was shared, but organized logically and suited more toward traditional corporate Americana. 4 - I need some form of an app that will help me create a directory, and it will not take me on some escalating and infuriating path to another subscription that I can’t afford. 5 - and I need something as idiot proof as the iPhone — however, I will add that iCloud is really confusing, and I never know how to sign files and control the chaos  CAN YOU RESPOND ONLY WITH THE FOLLOWING ITEMS A. Concise interpretation of what I am asking (250 words MAX) B. A list of apps that I can trust the cross platforms that basically helped me keep everything in one place and searchable

Jack (@jackcoder0) reportedIf this saved you money or made you realize the one paid tool that's genuinely worth keeping one ask: Repost the first post so the next person paying $97/month for AI tools sees the $0 version before their next billing cycle. Follow [ @jackcoder0 ] I break down the hidden tools, free alternatives, and overpriced subscriptions that companies bank on you not questioning.
