Quick Take
This VSCode extension for managing mobile devices directly in the editor hits Brian's sweet spot of developer productivity tools, especially with the AI agent integration angle (Mobile MCP). While he's not primarily a mobile dev, the workflow consolidation concept and AI tooling integration could spark ideas for his own dev tool projects or automation workflows.
