I've been a power users since day 1... I'm getting really fucking tired of forcing claude code to read the code.. more and more it's difficult /effort max.. read each line.. your fucking harness is skimming.. It's fucking bullshit.. because I get a shitty result.. then spend 2X the context fixing it.. stop trying to cheat by cheapening.. it's pissing off your users.

OpenAI is going to let users access Codex, its desktop AI tool that can write code and use apps on your computer, from the ChatGPT app on your phone. Following the surge in popularity for Anthropic's Claude Code, OpenAI has been working quickly to try and catch up, including by cutting back on "side quests," shutting down projects like the Sora video-generation tool, and focusing on growing its enterprise business. The company's push included the recently released major update for Codex that lets it operate apps on macOS - a potentially major step as part of its ambitions to make a desktop "s...

A new open source gadget called Clawdmeter turns Claude Code usage stats into a tiny desktop dashboard for AI coding power users.

Microsoft first started opening up access to Claude Code in December, inviting thousands of its own developers to use Anthropic's AI coding tool daily. It was part of an effort to get project managers, designers, and other employees to experiment with coding for the first time, and sources tell me that Claude Code has proved very popular inside Microsoft over the past six months. Perhaps a little too popular, as Microsoft is now preparing to walk back its Claude Code push. I understand that Microsoft is planning to remove most of its Claude Code licenses and push many of its developers to use...

Developer compares GPT-5.5 Codex to Claude Opus 4.7 on coding agent tasks (PR triage, code review UI), argues Anthropic needs aggressive pricing.

I got tired of re-explaining the same codebase context to coding agents. Stuff like: “we tried moving auth into middleware, but backed it out because it broke OAuth callbacks,” or “that weird retry logic exists because Stripe webhooks arrive out of order.” So I built Almanac. It gives your coding agent a self-updating wiki for the codebase. It updates from your repo, and conversations you havewith Claude Code/Codex. The wiki lives locally in your repo as markdown. You can read it yourself, but the main consumer is the agent. It’s free and open source. Currently only MacOS (would add a wi...

**Saw the thread about the June 15 credit change. Built a drop-in `-p` replacement using hooks — no SDK credits needed.** edit: 29 stars! my first real repo \o/ A lot of people are upset about losing subsidized `-p` usage. I built something that gives you the same stateless, one-message-at-a-time behavior — but in interactive mode, on your regular subscription. **How it works:** 1. A supervisor launches Claude Code in interactive mode 2. A stop hook polls an inbox file for new messages 3. When a message arrives, the hook injects it — **one message per session** 4. The agent processes it a...

r/ClaudeAI • also crosspost to r/LocalLLaMA and r/artificial I lost $187 to this and want to save others the same headache. **What happened** I run Claude Code headlessly via Windows Task Scheduler. My project repo has a `.env` file with `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` set — legitimately, for a separate Express server doing AI-based transaction classification. Nothing to do with Claude Code itself. Claude Code reads environment variables from the `.env` in its working directory on launch. When it finds `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` there, it silently uses that key for billing instead of your OAuth ...

Community member shares video tutorial and GitHub repo implementing a minimal Claude-like coding assistant from scratch.

Open-source TUI tool provides visibility into Claude Code agent loops, costs, and security issues; author reports $14K spend, 20% wasted iterations, and 3 credential leaks over 90 days.

So I thought I was assigning Claude a simple task of uploading a hero image from a folder within Cowork to a Wordpress page using the MCP connector. First it tried to compress the hell out of the image... nobody asked it to do that, then it went through all kinds of failed attempts to upload the image using bizarre methodologies. It rewrote the entire page content, despite me explicitly telling it to just edit the block in question.... *three times* in the same chat for other operations which were equally wasteful. It literally took 20 minutes and expended 60% of my tokens to perform this si...

Been using Claude Code heavily and kept running into the same thing everyone here talks about: the model ignores your rules. You tell it to write tests first, it writes the implementation. You give it coding standards, it cherry-picks which ones to follow. And as your rulebook grows, you're burning more and more tokens stuffing everything into context when only a handful of rules are relevant to what you're working on. So I built Writ. Two pieces: A retrieval engine that picks only the relevant rules and skills for the current task. It runs a five stage pipeline over a Neo4j knowledge graph...

Morning Everyone! Big one today (**104 changes!**): Claude Code just went async. The new `/goal` command lets you set a completion condition ("all tests pass and the PR is ready"), then Claude keeps grinding across turns until it's hit. The new `claude agents` view shows every session you've got running: working, blocked on you, or done. Translation: kick off a goal -> let claude cook -> come back later. First proper fire-and-forget loop CC has shipped. Pretty huge unlock if you've been juggling multiple sessions and losing track of which one needs you. Full notes: [https://www.luk...
