Questions from the room

/goal is causing me to hit my rate limits. Any ideas on how to optimize the token usage when running goal?rosa
John addresses this broadly by showing how to move complex context out of direct local execution bounds and offloading it through the browser-driven Oracle process. This lets you execute large analytical loops outside your standard account limits.
Is this MCP only limited to ChatGPT, or can we also use Gemini?Kajan Mohanagandhirasa
John details that his specific, customized structural additions in his personal fork focus heavily on ChatGPT integration because it bypasses the Codex quota. He notes the original baseline repository includes Gemini mechanics, though he hasn't personally validated that loop. However, since the engine operates by automating browser elements, it can theoretically hook any session (Perplexity, Devin, etc.) by extracting local browser session cookies.
