The progress in AI area is insane. I can't keep up with all the news. And I have work to do...

This is a pretty small update, no? Nothing major since R1, everyone else is just catching up to that, and putting small spins on it, Anthropic's is "hybrid" research instead of separate models

Well, now I have to play with it, try to see how it will generate code for our agentic assistance (we do rely on code to execute tasks flows), etc.

Hi everyone! Boris from the Claude Code team here. @eschluntz, @catherinewu, @wolffiex, @bdr and I will be around for the next hour or so and we'll do our best to answer your questions about the product.

The biggest complaint I (and several others) have is that we continuously hit the limit via the UI after even just a few intensive queries. Of course, we can use the console API, but then we lose ability to have things like Projects, etc. Do you foresee these limitations increasing anytime soon? Quick Edit: Just wanted to also say thank you for all your hard work, Claude has been phenomenal.

If you are open to alternatives, try https://glama.ai/gateway

We currently serve ~10bn tokens per day (across all models). OpenAI compatible API. No rate limits. Built in logging and tracing.

I work with LLMs every day, so I am always on top of adding models. 3.7 is also already available.

https://glama.ai/models/claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219

The gateway is integrated directly into our chat (https://glama.ai/chat). So you can use most of the things that you are used to having with Claude. And if anything is missing, just let me know and I will prioritize it. If you check our Discord, I have a decent track record of being receptive to feedback and quickly turning around features.

Long term, Glama's focus is predominantly on MCPs, but chat, gateway and LLM routing is integral to the greater vision.

I would love feedback if you are going to give a try frank@glama.ai

The cost is absurd (compared to other LLM providers these days). I asked 3 questions and the cost was ~0.77c. I do like how this is implemented as a bash tool and not an editor replacement though. Never leaving Vim! :P

Yep, my experience as well. It's just not worth it.

Can you let the API team know that the /v1/models endpoint has been broken for hours? Thanks.

Hello! Member of the API team here. We're unable to find issues with the /v1/models endpoint—can you share more details about your request? Feel free to email me at suzanne@anthropic.com. Thank you!

It always returns a Not Found error for me. Using the curl command copied directly from the docs:

$ curl https://api.anthropic.com/v1/models --header "x-api-key: $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" --header "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01"

{"type":"error","error":{"type":"not_found_error","message":"Not found"}}

Edit: Tried creating a different API key and it works with that one. Weird.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's their strong suit no doubt, but sometimes I wish the chat would not be so eager to code. It often throws code at me when I just want a conceptual or high level answer. So often that I routinely tell it not to.

I get this as well, to the point where I created a specific project for brainstorming without code — asking for concepts, patterns, architectural ideas without any code samples. One issue I find is that sometimes I get better answers without using projects, but I’m not sure if that’s everyone experience.

That's been my experience as well with projects, though I have yet to do any sort of A/B testing to see if it's all in my head or not.

I've attributed it to all your project content (custom instruction, plus documents) getting thrown into context before your prompt. And honestly, I have yet to work with any model where the quality of the answer wasn't inversely proportional to the length of context (beyond of course supplying good instruction and documentation where needed).

You can get your HN profile analyzed by it and it's pretty funny :) https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/ I'm using this to test the humor of new models.

Hahahaha.

It burns through tokens like crazy on a small code base https://i.imgur.com/16GCxiy.png

Hi everyone! Boris from the Claude Code team here. @eschluntz, @catherinewu, @wolffiex, @bdr and I will be around for the next hour or so and we'll do our best to answer your questions about the product.

Is there a way to always accept certain commands across sessions? Specifically for things like reading or updating files I don't want to have to approve that each time I open a new repl. Also, is there a way to switch models between 3.5-sonnet and 3.5-sonnet-thinking? Got the initial impression that the thinking model is using an excessive amount of tokens on first use.

Right now no, but if you run in docker, you can use `--dangerously-skip-permissions`

Some commands could be totally fine in one context, but bad in a different i.e. pushing to master

How is your largest customer, Cursor, taking the news that you'll be competing directly with them?

honestly, is this something that anthropic should be worried about? you could ask the same question from all the startups that were destroyed by OpenAI.

> "[..] in developing our reasoning models, we’ve optimized somewhat less for math and computer science competition problems, and instead shifted focus towards real-world tasks that better reflect how businesses actually use LLMs.” This is good news. OpenAI seems to be aiming towards "the smartest model," but in practice, LLMs are used primarily as learning aids, data transformers, and code writers. Balancing "intell…

Sometimes I wonder if there is overfitting towards benchmarks (DeepSeek is the worst for this to me).

Claude is pretty consistently the chat I go back to where the responses subjectively seem better to me, regardless of where the model actually lands in benchmarks.
