all these tools just assume claude code, even though what they do is piping input into a cli that doesn't have to be claude.

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.
I wonder if LLMs are actually closer to programming languages, in the sense of how they'll proliferate amongst different companies/people/use cases. Like maybe OpenAI is considered the Java of LLMs, while Claude is more like Python etc.
ChatGPT feels more like CoffeeScript to me - theoretically a good idea at the time but bound to be replaced.

#203I am going to give it a try. I like the idea. One thing, slow down the main animation on your home page, like a lot. And add a about us and contact section to your webiste, you want to gain the trust of the visitors.

Too bad OSs have such lock-in. Having a macOS with great sandboxing per folder + os capability to avoid the docker hellscape would be awesome. Probably not gonna happen until we can oneshot an OS rewrite :)
sarcasm? macOS and iOS has all this today.
Apple Containers!! Very new!

Re: Claudia – Desktop companion for Claude code
#205The desktop companion is not the problem that needs to be solved. It seems that every developer who successfully used CC and go on to create some tool for it is doing it for the wrong reasons or because they have to do just something. CC development is not just development, not all types of development. it’s frontend JS based , and it’s backend development. Only those scenarios work. Try creating native desktop or mo…
It's already a solved problem. Just use GPT-5-Thinking (or Pro) to create a highly detailed spec to execute against. You can also download the entire docs/source code for whatever libraries you're using and tell the AI to reference/search it as needed. Works great.
Could you show an example of a native desktop app (or a similarly complex app) being worked on with this approach?

#206Claudia is open-source, made by a S24 YC company https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/asterisk
I definitely thought this was an anthropic thing that they were trying to spin off into it's own website and app for normies. I am not saying it's infringement, I am just saying that my dumb brain made that connection and I feel like it's not unreasonable to assume that other people might as well.
Once Anthropic starts receiving a wave of support tickets they would be forced to change their name, CLAUDia is just a misspelled ClaudAi

#207On 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'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…
This is awesome. I’ve tried several of the mobile setups and this worked like a charm without any fiddling.I’ve been using termius + tailscale but this is much better UX. Thanks!

Claude doesn't seem very good at translation to me compared to GPT*. It also can't understand video like Gemini.
Re: Claudia – Desktop companion for Claude code
#209for info: "Claudia" as a name happens to be already in use by another open source project: Claudia the audio session management tool (for the JACK/LADISH APIs i.e. typically on Linux), part of the KxStudio audio tools suite by Filipe Coelho (falkTX) and the KxStudio community: https://kx.studio/Applications:Claudia
Nobody cares dude. It's a totally different thing. Names can overlap if the difference is obvious. What people do care about is where names imply some relationship that isn't true. In this case the name Claudia strongly implies that this is an official Claude-related product. They'll get a cease and desist soon enough if this actually becomes popular.
I care, it's confusing

>Pricing/usage will be very simple - a fixed subscription and we will no longer know the tokenomics because the provider will have greatly abstracted and optimized the cost per token, favoring a model that they can optimize margin against a fixed revenue floor. Personally, I think it's far more likely that a year from now either SotA models will have shifted elsewhere or Anthropic will have changed their pricing mode…
Claude’s wide adoption makes it more likely Anthropic will stay SotA, as do the max plans. This is the training data they crave to be able to improve, and it’s costing them peanuts while identifying customers who’ll pay and building loyalty. The data flywheel enabled by Claude is the closest thing to a vault any of the models have right now.
Do they have such a flywheel? I remember I had to specifically opt-in to sharing my Claude Code sessions with them. I think by default they aren't training on people's sessions.
