A short Friday opinion piece: a warm Mac mini was diagnosed by an AI using decades-old Unix tools (top, ps, lsof, pmset) that nobody knows in full. Like the word processor or the IDE, everyone uses a few percent of them. Camel is the same: twenty years of connectors and options that nobody knows all of. The catalog, build-checked docs examples, the MCP server and the CLI give the AI facts instead of guesses. It ends on discipline: the runaway processes in the story were started by earlier AI sessions.
