The AI and Antigravity took an existing STL and swapped a fan-shroud section for another design by directly manipulating the STL geometry in Python; it went perfectly.
A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.

My agent installed its own app on my phone over USB
His agents lived on his desktop, so he had to walk back to the computer to read what they left him. When APX got an Android app, he did not install it himself. He asked Roby, and it pulled the ADB skill and installed the app over USB.
My agent makes my office football pool picks every week
Commenting on the Top 20 post, he says he is in an office football pool where you rank games by how sure you are of the outcome, and he kept forgetting his picks and found it a chore. He gave the AI his login and they worked out rules together: The AI makes his picks each week based on Vegas point spreads and analyst information. The pool site has an awkward interface, and he says the AI handled it well.
Fable decoded a self playing piano file format and built an encoder and decoder for it
A man with a PianoDisc self playing piano gave Fable a music file he had bought from the maker's store. Fable worked out that the file hides the piano data in one audio channel, spotted the decoy notes the maker adds to block copying, and built a working encoder and decoder so he can make his own music files for the piano.
Built a dinner outfit from pieces the user photographed and uploaded from
A young man (OUT OF OFFICE, 30K followers) photographed his wardrobe and fed the pieces to the AI before a dinner reservation. Nova chose a black henley and dark wide-leg jeans, cross-checked his calendar and noticed the reservation was outside so it advised layering a long-sleeve, then recommended loafers over sneakers plus a silver watch and bracelet.

Agents run my fantasy football team and trash talk the league for me
He built an MCP link to ESPN fantasy football and let his agents run his team in a work league: they did the drafting, check injuries and stats a few times a day, make all the moves and submit the waivers. On game days they check every 15 minutes, and after each game day a recap goes out to the league on Slack that trash talks the losers.
Back from Disney World, he rebuilt the Galaxy's Edge bounty hunting game at home so his son could keep playing
On a family trip to Disney World his son loved the bounty hunting game in Galaxy’s Edge, where you tap a MagicBand to accept a contract and play hot and cold around the land until your band turns purple at the right door. Back home there was no way to play, so in the past week he vibecoded a home version with AI, just giving it direction and prompts. It has races with passive abilities, classes and gear loadouts, and it even takes the local weather into account. He is inviting beta testers on the site.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
