I'm fascinated by this and the recent claude-code-ide package: https://github.com/manzaltu/claude-code-ide.el

But, I cannot seem to get past this error when I run claude-code-ide: "Symbol’s function definition is void: project-root" I know this is defined in project.el, but claude has been surprisingly unhelpful at fixing this issue.

I'm feeling a bit frustrated by the state of emacs packages lately. I've used emacs for 30 years and it feels like things are getting worse.

I'm sorry it's not working. I've used emacs for almost 40 years and I'm definitely contributing to it being worse, by uploading efrit in its current state. But people were asking me for it. Damned if you do and all that.

I'm more than happy to work with you to get it working, with the caveat that it actually kind of sucks right now. It's no Claude Code. But I am quickly evolving it in that direction.

This project does not work for me either. Drat.

  This is turn 4. Focus on any remaining tasks that haven't been completed yet.   Don't repeat work that was already done in previous turns.
  Assistant: I notice from the context that we're in a directory that might be related to a xxx project. Let me try to find and open the yyyy.ts file.

Yeah it really kind of sucks right now, it's more of a proof of concept.

I'm working on evolving it into something that's not so transactional -- it will work more like claude code. Didn't realize it was going to hit the front page today. I'll poke at it this weekend and send an update.

		Ok, I might have to frame this comment. I'm a big fan. After reading your wikipedia page, I didn't realize we were both at UWash CS at the same time. Small world.

My guess is that you're not in a project when you're opening claude? Easiest way for it to detect a project would be having a file or dired buffer open in something managed by git.
