As others have said, this is a giant red flag.
That video on the homepage is insane... please for the sake of your amazing app, slow it down and make it less frantic! (Super rapid zooming in and out, flying all over screen at 3x speed, must cover eyes!!)
Agreed 100%. When you work on an app every day, it all makes sense to see the cool features flash by, but you need to design for people who don't have a clue what your app does.

I think the thing is that most of the people implementing stuff for Claude have already realized it’s just the best option available for… basically everything. I’ve switched to different models before, but I always come back to Sonnet or Opus for doing anything sensible.
Claude may be arguably the best model, but why decide unilaterally for your users that they _have_ to use it? If there's no particular feature that only Claude offers, this is just needless vendor lock-in. And what happens if another lab releases a model that suddenly trounces Claude at coding? Your users will leave for an app that supports the new hotness, and you won't be able to keep them because of a short-sighte…

I've been contributing to an open source mobile app [1] that takes two swings at offering something that Roo does not have. 1. Real-time sync of CLI coding agent state to your phone. Granted this doesn't give you any new coding capabilities, you won't be making any different changes from your phone. And I would still chose to make a code change on my computer. But the fact that it's only slightly worse (you just wish…
Woah, cool! Having a phone connection to Claude code is something I’ve been looking for
On the one hand, it's good that we're seeing a lot of exploration in this space. On the other, the trend seems to be everyone developing a million disparate tools that largely replicate the same functionality with the primary variation being greater-or-lesser lock-in to a particular set of services. This is about the third tool this week I've taken a quick look at and thought "I don't see what this offers me that I d…

I'm shocked that YC hasn't advised them that this name is terrible. It actively breaks trust by trying to piggyback on Anthropic's tool naming.
Does this sandbox the agents? All I want is a way to keep the agents from writing to and reading from arbitrary places on the filesystem. I want that enforced using operating system primitives rather than a pinky promise with an LLM. It already worries me that the Cursor agents occasionally try to perform operations with full absolute paths, which they wouldn't be able to know if they were properly sandboxed to the c…
You can solve this yourself with a little elbow grease with Docker + a devcontainer. I did this and I’m very happy with the results - Claude can do anything it wants, but it can’t push to prod.

> lots of people doing alternative interfaces to access Facebook and Reddit. So… what we had on web 2 then, with its daily twitter clients? There were hundreds and hundreds of them
Twitter wasn’t nearly as big or influential, that comparison doesn’t hold. Furthermore, I was replying directly to the reference of “lots of aggregators and forums instead of "Reddit and others."”, which obviously excludes Twitter as part of the “others”.
