In plain words

Crossnote is a note-taking extension for Visual Studio Code that allows users to write and organize notes within their code editor. It launched in April 2020 and is available on GitHub. The extension integrates note-taking functionality directly into VSCode, enabling developers and other users who work in the editor to manage notes alongside their code without switching applications.

(I.E, I think OpenAI will beat Anthropic in the short term, etc...) However, I'm bad at converting these guesses into actual market plays I can profit from. As such, I wanted to make a tool that connects to the right APIs and launches a swarm of agent experts to generate related plays based on your prediction.
