Show HN: I forced Claude to play Tetris in Emacs

The point of this seemingly useless exercise was to stress-test my elisp-eval MCP https://github.com/agzam/death-contraptions/tree/main/tools/...

AI hands it a string of Lisp, it runs inside live Emacs session, poking into it via emacsclient. Behaves like a REPL the LLM can drive - state persists between the calls.

Emacs is a Lisp machine. Buffers, files, network, subprocesses, games, major modes, the UI itself: every feature is already an elisp function. Hand an LLM a way to run arbitrary elisp and it inherits the entire Emacs API for free. No per-task glue code required.

The same MCP can drive Magit, Org, Eshell, Dired, eww, or anything else someone ever wrote in elisp. Tetris is just to make the point.

Your GitHub link 404s.

I wonder, why not just get ECA to run `emacsclient -e <elisp>` instead? Does that not work as well?
