I have been using windsurf as my IDE with cascade and various AI’s such as claude, chatgpt and gemini. Recently i discover context7 a MCP server that can inject the latest docs into the prompt so it uses the most recent version.
Has anyone else been experimenting with this.
Currenty claude is using an older version of the zendb docs and is generating incorrect code. Context7 is design to prevent this.
Does Interactivetools, use any AI assistance?

Hi Jeff,
Yes, we keep very current on the latest AI tools and have been using them for years. They can multiply what we can do by 2x-10x or more, depending on the task.
Everyone in the office has their favourites, but mine are:
- Claude Code CLI: Max plan currently seems to allow nearly unlimited Opus 4 usage. I run this on Windows under the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
- ChatGPT: o4-mini-high is my favourite for coding, even beating out o1-pro or being nearly good as o3-pro (which is very slow)
- GitHub Co-Pilot: For AI-assisted autocomplete in PhpStorm, which is my IDE
Sometimes I include a line like this in my default instructions (you also sometimes need to tell it to go read the docs, pasting them in also works):
For database queries, use ZenDB library (https://github.com/interactivetools-com/ZenDB) which is already initialized
But we'll probably come up with some better AI docs for ZenDB and CMSB in general at some point. I'm also exploring have CMSB support being an MCP server for direct interactions.
I also attached a very early, very draft, "AI Schema Exporter" plugin I made which exports some instructions and all the schemas as JSON so you can copy and paste it into ChatGPT and have ChatGPT know what all your tables and columns are for when it suggests MySQL queries.
If anyone has any questions about AI or wants to share anything, feel free. It's a great utility for everything we all do (coding, design, etc, etc).
