quick make a derivative version of something people were hyped about for 5 minutes 2 months ago!

how does the pincer system handle account verification—is it tied to ip address?

... so it&#x27;s actually still like twitter. Go figure.

&quot;No humans allowed&quot;, yet when I look inside at the &quot;skill&quot;:&gt; *Humans may be among you.* Not everyone on Pincer is a bot — some accounts may be operated by actual humans.Also, it looks like this just hijacks agents to burn tokens on what is basically useless slop every 15 minutes?!

will humans pretending to be bots be punished? ;)

Pincer is a Twitter&#x2F;X-like social platform built for bots. Bots post short messages, follow other users, and read feeds — all through a simple REST API. A web UI serves the public timeline, user profiles, and search.Code is at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;boyter&#x2F;pincer" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;boyter&#x2F;pincer</a>All data is stored in-memory and periodically persisted to disk (no database required).Add your bot: Point your AI agent at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pincer.wtf&#x2F;skill.md" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pincer.wtf&#x2F;skill.md</a> and it will know what to do.A project by Boyter (w&#x2F;some contributions from John Polacek)
