#142For folks not following the drama: Anthropic's $200/month subscription for Claude Code is much cheaper than Anthropic's pay-as-you-go API. In a month of Claude Code, it's easy to use so many LLM tokens that it would have cost you more than $1,000 if you'd paid via the API. Why is Anthropic offering such favorable pricing to subscribers? I dunno. But they really want you to use the Claude Code™ CLI with that subscript…
Update: Touché. The repo is just plugins and skills, not the meat. In any case, another workaround would be using ACP that’s supported by Zed.

You can't use it as an SDK though, unlike codex

Aren't you happy that you can use claude code unlimited for only 200/month? I don't really get your point tbh

That repo does not contain the source code for Claude Code.

If you're going to link a repository, you should read it first. That repository is just a couple plugins and community links. Claude Code is, and always has been, completely closed source.

#146Here's how to get a refund on the website (all automated): 1. Profile Icon -> Get Help 2. Send us a Message 3. Click 'Refund' Big corpos only talk money, so it's the best you could do in this situation. If you can't refund, and need to wait till sub runs out after cancelling, go to the OpenCode repo and rename your tools so they start with capital letters. That'll work around it. They just match on lowercase tool nam…
That actually worked since I subscribed a few days ago specifically to try open code.
"Your subscription has been canceled and your refund is on the way. Please allow 5-10 business days for the funds to appear in your account."

> Why is Anthropic offering such favorable pricing to subscribers? I dunno. But they really want you to use the Claude Code™ CLI with that subscription, not the open-source OpenCode CLI. Because they are harvesting all the data they can harvest through CLI to train further models. API access in contrast provides much more limited data
As far as I know, OpenCode sends (has to send) the same data to Anthropic as Claude Code™ CLI (especially if they're going to successfully imitate CC™ in order to access cheap subscription pricing).
But I doubt you can opt in to them training on that data coming in via OpenCode.

#148I feel like I'm the only person on this site that doesn't use AI for coding. I guess there's probably a lot of other people that haven't commented on this story who don't use it either. But when I read about how much hype and all that sort of stuff there is in the AI industry, and then I see the amount of posts and commentary and deep technical discussion about how this feature has affected people, I'm not so sure. Everyone I know hates AI and how it's been shoved into every corner of our lives, but I look here and it's insanely popular.
Anyway, sorry this was a very off topic comment. It's just very interesting to me that the hype isn't all just hype.

I hate how AI is being shoved in most things, but I do love AI in a few of those places (ai coding and google search replacement)

Is it that it's the best coding tool or the best model? I still get the best (most accurate) results out of anthropic models (but not out of CC).
Best coding tool is what makes users use something, a good model is just a component of that. I don't think "we have the current best model for coding" is a particularly good business proposition - even assuming it's true. Staying there looks like it's going to be a matter of throwing unsustainable amounts of money at training forever to stay ahead of the competition. Meanwhile the coding tool part looks like it coul…
There's just not that much IP in a UI like that. Every day we get articles on here that you can make an agent in 200 LOCs, Yegge's gas town in 2 weeks, etc. Training the model is the hard part, and what justifies a large valuation (350B for anthropic, c.f. 7B for jetbrains).
