Anyone else have a bunch of fun with Claude Code's Github integration... until you realized it spends from your API wallet balance? Oops, when I saw the /install-github-app command, I assumed that since I'm on a max plan and Claude Code in my terminal is free, then the Github integration would be free. So I hooked it up to my repo and tagged @claude in everything. It was a lot of fun tagging it in backburner issues a…

You can use your max plan ( https://github.com/grll/claude-code-action ) Currently in gray area but allowed as per anthropic comment on it - https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-action/issues/4#is...

Oh, thanks! You didn't go digging that up just for me, did you?

I'll try it out right now.

Claude is cool, they focus on cool and useful things. But man do I just want a way to quickly glance at my API credits and to just occasionally chat with a model from those credits without librechat of openwebui. Or set some limits, or see some usage metrics. And please please use "forever auth" with passkeys or something, what is up with that auth email that just takes ages for a quick glance?! It always takes me 3…

With uv, is there a way to install Python and Node tools like this in a self-contained way so they appear to the system as a single executable? I guess I don't want to duplicate Python/Node for every tool, but I also don't want it to be fragile. And this wants a Node CLI tool installed globally, which I've found breaks easily with changing versions.

This is pretty cool.. I like the idea, could I make a semi-snarky feature request and could we add the estimated power consumed to produce results for each session ?

Soon we will have low carbon developers

We all were low carbon developers once

Let's start with npm and node_modules first - I think it is responsible for at least half of the global warming.

Greta would be proud, but I’m not sure how the number of tokens relates to energy consumption.

Soon the AI companies will have different tiers of plan based on carbon output.

For $200 per month they’ll only use carbon-free power sources for your prompts. At $100 they’ll use nuclear, then $20 per month for coal, and then there will be a free tier where your prompts are powered by throwing baby seals into a furnace.

Or just straight to CO2. Google said 1000 tokens emits 8.3g CO2.

How many tokens used in a heavy vibe coding day?

Average US daily per capita is like 40kg CO2

Isn't Claude and Anthropic API two separate platforms? How does it spend from your other account?
