Researcher's real-world stack: mobile Codex + Tailscale + Dot as a proactive personal assistant
ludwigABAP · x · 2026-10-27
AI researcher ludwigABAP shares two weeks of heavy real-world use of the ChatGPT/Codex mobile and desktop apps: paired with Tailscale, he keeps research threads spanning weeks with many subagents running from his phone.
He highlights Dot, a proactive personal assistant he uses for lab-email alerts, accountant follow-ups and a move to Switzerland, arguing nothing else matches its proactiveness — his own Hermes gateway on a Mac mini, Quietbox and a Telegram bot for his girlfriend all required too much fiddling.
