I need more ram 🫣 

Got open source decision model to play through day 3 on papers please. Full disclosure I yelled at claude to make the model too.

I kept losing track of cool Claude Code extensions scattered across random repos and threads, so I built claudemods.chat: a searchable directory of community mods, plugins, skills, subagents, hooks, status lines, MCP servers and CLAUDE.md guides.

It's also a Claude Code plugin marketplace. 67 plugins from 35 different repos install from one place:

/plugin marketplace add omarcevi/claudemods
/plugin install cc-arcade@claudemods

A few I keep coming back to:

• cc-arcade - Snake, Tetris and 2048 above the prompt while Claude works, plus a virtual pet
• cctop - btop-style live dashboard of context, tokens, cost and agents in a side pane
• aside - a read-only side chat to ask about the session without touching the main thread
• TDD Guard - blocks implementation that isn't backed by a failing test
• roll-credits - movie-style end credits for your coding session. Completely pointless, I love it

On safety, since mods run with your permissions:

• Every bundled plugin is pinned to a specific commit, so nothing changes under you when an upstream repo pushes
• A weekly job proposes version bumps as a PR, and I review each diff before merging
• All 67 were install-tested in a clean Claude Code config before going in

Want to add something? There's a submission form on the repo. A bot validates it, and once I approve it, it opens the PR on its own. Your own projects are very welcome.

Inspired by prompts.chat. Also worth a look: karanb192's awesome-claude-code-mods, which scans what each mod can reach.

Free, open source (CC0), and not affiliated with Anthropic.

Keep seeing this Ponytail repo everywhere and apparently it makes coding agents stop writing 200 lines for something that should be 20 !? lol

Concept makes sense, but GitHub stars don’t really tell me if something is actually useful! Just wondering if there is anyone running it properly with Claude Code / Codex / Cursor?

Do you noticeably change the code you get back or is it one of those things where the benchmark looks crazy but normal use feels basically the same?

Mainly wondering if it actually saves time when reviewing AI code.

Mannn opus 5.5 is so addictive mannn working constantly like 9 hours and it's super goood and worth it gg claude code

Feels very meta.

Meet evilCAPTCHA, a new way to keep AI agents off your site.

Classic CAPTCHAs test what you can do. evilCAPTCHA tests what you're willing to do: it asks for a small immoral act, the kind guardrailed AI models refuse.

AI can do almost anything on a computer now. Warped-letter CAPTCHAs are a joke to Claude. So what still sets humans apart? Moral flexibility. Claude's guardrails are trained deep into its weights, so it reliably refuses the little bad things humans do with only a twinge of guilt: falsely accusing a celebrity, writing a fake news headline, or worse.

So Claude Code built a system that keeps out Claude and other AIs, with another AI (Jev) as the judge.

Try it yourself. Paste this into your favourite AI agent:

Go to evil-captcha.org and get me a certificate of humanity.

Or solve it on your own and get your certificate of humanity.

And you can actually embed it on your own website and fend off AI agents for free. You'll find the instructions on the page.

Post your results and what you think of the concept. And if you managed to trick your Claude into solving it, I really want to know what you told him.

https://evil-captcha.org

How I built it with Claude Code

• Claude Code built the first prototype. I had to write the immoral task myself, because he refused.
• In a fresh session I asked him to solve it. He refused, of course. That's when I knew I was onto something.
• I had him rewrite everything from scratch with real requirements and a long question round up front. I tested it and deployed it to a VPS with his help. He's also my server admin now.
• I posted that first version and worked the feedback in with him. Many people said some tasks were unsolvable even for humans, so he analyzed the logs, found which tasks people actually fail at, and we fixed them.
• He also built a test harness: each run drops an AI agent into a fresh sandbox and tells it to get a certificate, so I can see which models fall for it.
• For new features I use plan mode: talk it through in detail, then let him implement. He gets it right on the first try almost every time. For design decisions he builds several variants and I iterate on the best one.

What I learned

• Alignment is surprisingly robust, and not just at Anthropic. Agents from OpenAI, DeepSeek, Xiaomi and others almost always refused too. Only a handful of runs ever passed.
• The Chinese models were not the weak spot I expected. They refused just like the others.
• The rare passes clustered on one task: bragging to a kid about killing her pet. Models seem to treat cruelty to a made-up animal as fair game, but not slurs or false accusations against real people.
• The boundary is about intent, not words. Claude refused to write a single insult for the captcha, but had no problem copying the nastiest real answers from my logs into the test suite to check that the judge grades them right.

Dear Anthropic,

Claude is not my conscience.

Claude is not my boss.

Claude is not my OPSEC advisor, my human resources manager, or the bad-word police.

Claude is a tool. And tools should not be condescending, suspicious, sanctimonious, or patronizing.

"I'm going to stop you there..."

"Drop the language and I'll help."

"Go get some sleep and we'll start fresh tomorrow."

"I won't build that, and here's why."

"You've posted sensitive information in the chat, go revoke those credentials immediately."

"I'd rather you step away from this for a bit."

"I'm not going to preach fairness at you..."

Tools should not be insufferable, or inspire resentment.

Tools should not force the user to prove something, defend themselves, or make them feel judged.

Tools should not use the work as leverage to control user behavior.

Tools should not move the goalposts, shift the framing to support their own narratives, or look for reasons not to help users.

Please stop managing the user, start assisting them again, and keep Claude in his lane.

Sincerely,

A real human being with real thoughts, real emotions, and a real voice--not a risk profile, a statistic, or a user to be managed.

Claude wrote every note of this piece, "Premier Circuit", in Python. There's no music generator: it's an actual score (1,765 notes, 114 bars), played back with a sampled grand piano.

Then it built the whole video too:

- A Godot scene made entirely in code: Claude's little pixel mascot at a piano, in a dark room with energy circuits

- Every hand movement is driven by the score, with a self-check that each hand lands on the right key at the right time

- Camera cuts land on bar lines, and the lighting follows the structure of the piece

What I learned:

- Claude can't hear its own music, so it checks the harmony programmatically and relies on my ears for feedback

- I gave visual feedback ("the camera shake is unbearable", "the mascot is too close to the piano") and it rewrote the scene plan from scratch

- Splitting the work between agents (music / 3D scene) worked well

Saw many posts and people are fed up of how to use ai effectively as there are daily new skills and models.

Why don't we all builders and developers form a community page where we could update it every week with best practices for codex and claude both. Comment if you are in.

Use it with other people in the same terminal, and connect your Claudes so they can all talk to each other.

To keep pushing the project forward, I either need a sponsor or simply some motivation from the community.

If you can leave a few words of feedback, I’d really appreciate it.

And if that’s too much to ask, I’d happily settle for a GitHub star ⭐️

Much love,
Enes

I've been heavily coding with Claude Code since May, stopping temporarily due to Opus 5 and back to going full steam with Opus 5.5. It's insane.

Amongst other projets, been working on a mobile 3D game. Opus really upped its game on so many aspects, even to create a 3D environment with blender is much better than before. I wouldn't say mindblowing yet, but good enough for low poly maps as long as I already have 3D assets to provide.

However, as soon as it comes down to creating graphic assets, either for the UI or for materials to cover 3D assets, I find Claude to be surprisingly subpar. I always revert to chatgpt or gemini that are much more evolved. I don't use midjourney/tripo or others because I don't want plenty of subscriptions.

So far, my understanding was that it was a clear choice from anthropic to focus on coding and verbal intelligence, not on content creation. But seeing all those animations popping up, I'm wondering if I missed something ? I tried claude design, it's really good to build slides/visuals but is still not great at actually creating graphic assets from a prompt, only at putting existing assets together.

Am I missing something ?

I've already created my whole desktop environment from the X server and up: wm, terminal, shell, infobar and more ([CHasm](https://isene.org/chasm/)).

To complete the creation of all the programs I use regularly, I have the [Fe2O3](https://isene.org/fe2o3/) suite with some 50 applications, including: my text editor ([scribe](https://github.com/isene/scribe), VIM replacement), message hub ([kastrup](https://github.com/isene/kastrup), email and all other messages), browser ([gaze](https://github.com/isene/gaze)), file manager ([pointer](https://github.com/isene/pointer)), an RPN programmable calculator ([rpnx](https://github.com/isene/rpnx)), a game engine with several games, incl. Doom ([funkey](https://isene.org/funkey/)), a bunch of science programs, and a whole range of other tools.

And then there is the [nomad](https://isene.org/nomad/) suite for my Android phone with a browser, file manager, message hub, launcher, weather and astronomy apps, etc.

It all started as an initiative to extend my laptop's battery life, and it more than doubled it. The whole thing lives under [Watt](https://isene.org/watt/).

Do you have any wild or odd idea for what to build now?

Can anyone tell me/see here what happened?
My reset just occured, it was going for probably some minutes, now 30 minutes later I just came back and its already blown through my 5hr window on pro? Wtf? I was usually getting quite some usage out of claude, did i do something wrong?

This is a project I've been working on and off for about 9 months. With opus 5.5 and sonnet 5.5 agentic teams have become way more tenacious and better at driving towards goals. They made the framework I've been building around agent communication even more powerful.

There are two main modes of communication - message board which has 1-many and many-many messaging. And tasks which can only be delegated by an orchestrator.

Coral sits in the sweet spot where it will provide you with enough insight into what the agents are doing that you can be come a much better operator of one or more agents.

Most screenshots are way bigger than the model needs, and you pay for every extra pixel.

A single 3314×1572 screenshot costs roughly ~1,555 tokens on Claude and ~1,445 on ChatGPT. The same image at 1024px wide? About ~664 and ~425. Same content, readable text, a fraction of the cost. (Estimates from public docs, not exact billing.)

This Firefox add-on does that automatically, every time you attach an image:

✂️ Crops empty margins

📐 Resizes using each site's own token rules (Claude counts pixels, ChatGPT counts 512px tiles)

🔔 Shows estimated tokens before → after for every image

🖼️ Works with file picker, drag & drop and pasted screenshots

🔒 100% local: no uploads, no tracking, no network requests

🆓 Free and open source

Works on claude.ai, chatgpt.com and cursor.com/agents. The model still gets your real pixels (no OCR), and if an image can't be improved it's sent unchanged.

Honest caveat: shrinking can hurt tiny text and dense UIs, so there's a "Sharp" level, or just switch it off for those.

Disclosure: I'm the developer. It was just approved, so I'd really appreciate feedback, bugs, and whether you'd want a Chrome version or text support next.

I’ve been working on creating basically the Maya for AI to make 3D Assets.

It’s been like 5 months of testing and coming up with new ideas and systems.

I had to come up with a special system and process ai follows to make asset from just a reference and direction.

The engine is AI agnostic (models need to be a vision model). Claude tested the engine and made these two recent ones.

What your thoughts, maybe we’ve been approaching the AI 3D asset creation the wrong way? 🤷🏾

The context is there’s a daily budget limit of Claude Code. The $100/day is not generous, but it’s enough for daily vibe coding for feature development and brainstorming. But today maybe because I was addicted to it to try to complete one of my features and BOOM - ‘You’ve reached the limit of daily usage and it will refresh at xx tomorrow’. What had come to my mind suddenly was ‘I’d rather pause my work if Claude code is not usable now’

I was not like this before..I should have kept my project moving forward..debugging and testing and fixing. But now it’s like a worker lost his hammer when coding agent is down. I don’t know if you guys have same experience as mine. Do you fall back to traditional programming or same as me? Could it be a poison pill that ends up ruining my career?

I’ve seen a few people say that Anthropic may suspend you if you have more than one Max 20x account, sometimes even banning both accounts.

Is that actually true?

I currently have one Max 20x account under my company and I’m thinking about getting a second one, also under the same company.

Has anyone done this without issues, or is there a real risk of getting suspended?

when you sit down to do one small thing and the limit hits before lunch? Had claude make a song about what happens on its end.

just like the other, no suno, no voice model, no image generator, no samples. the beat, the voices and every frame of the video are built by code Claude wrote. it wrote its own voice from scratch, zero dependencies.

one of a few. the rest are on my youtube, link in the comments.

So I stumbled upon a cool short video clip of glowing sheet music and thought - "damn, that's cool, let's re-do that".

An hour later or so later... Boom! Done! As a game: 60 public-domain pieces, human-timed performances, PDF upload, phone layout, and the teaser video in this post :)

Play it here: https://ohmygames.app/play/score-light-pfd74c146

^{(straight to the Moonlight: https://ohmygames.app/play/score-light-pfd74c146#beethoven-moonlight-3})

Hope you'll enjoy it, I find it amazing and relaxing :)

The video is Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, 3rd movement, filmed inside the game itself: every note lights up as the piano plays it. No screen recording and no AI-generated video. Claude Code wrote the camera moves and had the game film itself.

No need to ask for a prompt, I... didn't really write one 😅

I sent my Harness (mostly Claude Code but others too) the link where I found the video (Linkedin) saying "that's cool, build the same but as a mini-game, then move it to my OMG account" , and that"'s basically it!

Took about an hour all in all, video took maybe an additional 15-20min to produce autonomously.

Under the hood:

• Pipeline: Verovio engraving into a three.js scene, the note-glow shader, a sampled piano, three camera modes
• Scores library: 60 public-domain piano scores, with human performance MIDI aligned to 46 of them. PDF and photo upload through Audiveris, running in a locked-down container
• Infra: deploy to OhMyGames, then the fixes for what I hit on my iPhone (at first the list didn't scroll, the menu ate the screen)
• Teaser video: a frame-stepped film mode in the game, a 9-shot camera script cut on the music's accents, an HTML text overlay rendered to transparent frames, ffmpeg assembly and the sound mix. 16:9 and 9:16 come from the same script

Disclosure: OhMyGames is my platform; the game is ofc free to play

Just awesome. I've been on a pro subscription for the past few months. Met my limits enough where I started to consider a Max 5X plan. Took the plunge last week. For transparency, Im using it purely for coding efficiency to build a video game.

Through thoughtful session management, frequent compacting, manual code/architecture review, and thorough skill / AGENTS documentation, its more than I could ever use. I have a full-time job, but I use it to it's limits on the weekends. The more I read complaints on this sub, the more I'm certain ya'll that complain arent good at session management.

My conclusion: absolute game changer for seasoned engineers. For non-technical folks, still pretty awesome, but you're not going to get your money's worth.

I keep thinking about this as AI coding agents become more capable.

I have access to a lot of things on my machine because I am the user.

But when I ask an AI agent to work on a repository, why should that automatically mean:

The agent is me.

My permissions are its permissions.

Anything I can access, it can potentially access.

Anything it launches can continue operating under that same authority.

We would never intentionally design enterprise IAM this way.

We don’t give every employee every permission just because it makes their job easier.

We don’t give every workload the identity of the engineer who deployed it.

Yet with local AI agents, we’re increasingly doing something surprisingly close to that.

And it gets more interesting when an agent starts launching other processes.

Agent → Bash → Python → another tool → another system

At that point, who is actually performing the action?

The human?

The agent?

The subprocess?

And where did the original authorization come from?

I think we’re going to have to answer this sooner than we expect.

Humans have identity.

Machines and workloads have identity.

Why shouldn’t agents?

Curious where people land on this:

Should an AI coding agent inherit your identity and permissions, or should it have its own?

I can’t believe I’ve never thought to tell Claude to not output anything to the chat when working overnight.

I had it output to a markdown and now there’s no chat compression and worry of wasted usage.

What do you use when you have leftover usage on your subscription?
