This is an extremely clunky and buggy prerelease, so don't try to hot fix prod from the toilet without a different mobile frontend. Right now: - You can't interrupt Claude (you press stop and he keeps going!) - At best it stops but just keeps spinning - The UI disconnects intermittently - It disconnects if you switch to other parts of Claude - It can get stuck in plan mode - Introspection is poor - You see XML in the…

Exactly my experience, I know they vibe code features and that’s fine but it looks like they don’t do proper testing which is surprising to me because all you need bunch of cheap interns to some decent enough testing

No there is a wide gap between good and bad testers. Great testers are worth their weight in gold and delight in ruining programmer's days all day long. IMO not a good place to skimp and a GREAT place to spend for talent.

Sounds like a problem AI can easily solve!

I have little doubt where things are going, but the irony of the way they communicate versus the quality of their actual product is palpable. Claude Code (the product, not the underlying model) has been one of the buggiest, least polished products I have ever used. And it's not exactly rocket science to begin with. Maybe they should try writing slightly less than 100% of their code with AI?

More generally, Anthropic's reliability track record for a company which claims to have solved coding is astonishingly poor. Just look at their status page - https://status.claude.com/ - multiple severe incidents, every day. And that's to say nothing of the constant stream of bugs for simple behavior in the desktop app, Claude Code, their various IDE integrations, the tools they offer in the API, and so on. Their mod…

Even when it's operating normal the webapp is constantly crashing.

Mobile app stops working..

It's a pain.

At least right now.

On top of that is something they should have had from earlier times. My biggest pain point is to not to be able to continue from my phone. I just use a service to pipe telegram to any cc session in the dev machine. This is the number 1 reason why I got excited by openclaw in the first place but its overkill to have it just to control cc

Claude Code Team: Please fix the core experience instead of branching out into all these tertiary features. I know it is fun and profit to release new features but you need to go deeper into features not broader into there be dragons territory.

This is a classic case of vibe coding gets you 80% of the way there, but polishing takes the other 80%.

There is that (you can still use coding agents on the other 80% to polish, by the way) but to me this situation underscores the value of a good "editor"--someone who says this is good to ship vs. not this not now.

You could put the transport protocol on the blockchain, I suppose

You are making me more creative. we can upload snapshot of zip files to blockchain, then notify customer via servers

Even better, train an entirely new LLM with your prompt added to its data set. It will be imbued with its own latent sense of purpose. All you need to do after that is type "let there be light!"

Do you have an alias or something so that every time you open CC, tmux is running? How do you deal with multiple concurrent sessions of CC with this setup? How important is mosh? I wasn't able to get it set up the last time I tried... ran into a bunch of issues.

I always setup my terminals to open a tmux session by default (or attach to any existing one). For example, in my ~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.toml:

    [terminal.shell]
    args = ["-l", "-c", "tmux attach || tmux"]
    program = "/opt/homebrew/bin/zsh"
tmux supports tabs so you can have multiple Claude Code sessions running concurrently. You do need to learn a few tmux keyboard shortcuts to use it effectively (e.g. opening/closing/switching tab).

One could just as easily argue hunching over your desk staring at your computer has neurological implications. My favorite way to vibe code is by voice while in the hot tub. Rest AND focus AND build.

How is this not solved by a simple voice recorder? You can process and act on it later while not forgetting your thoughts when inspiration hits. People have been doing that for at least like 50 years now.

I have just today discovered zmx [1] which is like tmux but I always hated the tmux terminal emulation and how it hijacks scrolling, especially on Termius on my phone. It does session persistence but I think without the terminal emulator side of things, so scrolling works normally.

Been testing it today with Claude Code and it seems to work quite well switching between my laptop and phone.
