What they did

An MCP server plus Blockbench plugin lets Claude build models, unwrap UVs, paint textures, add bones and animations, check its work with screenshots and export. Every step lands in Blockbench's undo history.

Prompt

Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.

In Blockbench, build a [low-poly fox character] for [a Minecraft-style game]: model it, unwrap UVs, paint a hand-painted texture, add bones and a [walk] animation. Screenshot after each stage and fix anything that looks wrong, then export as [glTF].

Hermes Agent Nearly Doubled Speech-to-Text Accuracy on Hard Words: 99 to 183 of 240

A user turned his 15K saved Wispr Flow dictations into a test set for the local Whisper model behind his Hermes Agent. The agent turned his Wispr dictionary into a hint list, diffed raw vs corrected text to find words Whisper keeps mishearing, made find-and-fix rules, and tested every rule against the full history. With no fine-tuning, dictionary words went from 99/240 to 183/240 on Wispr clips and 19/45 to 43/45 on sentences he read aloud. It now archives the data nightly and looks for new fixes weekly.
