Why Claude Code is much more than a coding agent: it is a general-purpose AI agent that can do almost anything a user can on a computer, with impressive results

    I'm not joking and this isn't funny. We have been trying to build distributed agent orchestrators at Google since last year. There are various options, not everyone is aligned... I gave Claude Code a description of the problem, it generated what we built last year in an hour.

    When you see how people use Claude Code/Codex/etc it becomes clear that managing agents is really a management problem Can you specify goals? Can you provide context? Can you divide up tasks? Can you give feedback? These are teachable skills. Also UIs need to support management

    Yeehaw 🤠 Now I can talk to Claude Code on my VPS on my iPhone with @WisprFlow on iOS, it adds a keyboard that unlike iOS own Dictate, actually works with @TermiusHQ And it live changes production code I'm not the biggest fan of talking to a computer though but it does feel very c…

    Kinda mind boggling. Opus got my little game running in web assembly in 10 minutes. Didn't even have to fix up inputs or sound which is wild to me.
  • @davidsholz David on x
    ive done more personal coding projects over christmas break than i have in the last 10 years. its crazy. i can sense the limitations, but i *know* nothing is going to be the same anymore.

    It genuinely feels to me like GPT-5.2 and Opus 4.5 in November represent an inflection point - one of those moments where the models get incrementally better in a way that tips across an invisible capability line where suddenly a whole bunch of much harder coding problems open up
  • @sergeykarayev Sergey Karayev on x
    Claude Code with Opus 4.5 is a watershed moment, moving software creation from an artisanal, craftsman activity to a true industrial process. It's the Gutenberg press. The sewing machine. The photo camera.
  • @minimaxir Max Woolf on x
    One example of something I couldn't believe Claude Opus 4.5 could generate until it did: a full-on MIDI mixer as a terminal app, written in Rust. [video]
  • @dabit3 Nader Dabit on x
    I think we're hitting a point where mobile coding actually makes sense for production-grade systems.  This developer runs 6 Claude Code agents in parallel from his phone.  No laptop, just a $7/day VM and push notifications when Claude needs input 🤯 Instead of long periods of inte…

    The $1.3T App Store doesn't DIE. It's going to EXPLODE. Claude Code makes it so anyone can ship an app, which means the App Store fills up 10,000× faster than before. Most are AI junk. But A few are surprisingly good and PERSONAL instead of UNIVERSAL. Apple will get stricter
  • @somewheresy @somewheresy on x
    Claude Code is probably the death of the App Store economy
  • @benjamindekr Benjamin De Kraker on x
    We are way past code. Code is solved. If you are not thinking about structures, architectures, and recursive systems of agents in 2026, you're probably behind.
  • @rileybrown Riley Brown on x
    Claude Code is becoming less like coding and more like a video game.
  • @inductionheads @inductionheads on x
    Claude code with Opus 4.5 is the single most powerful tool ever created, full stop.
  • @apoorva_mehta Apoorva Mehta on x
    if you have started a company in the last 12 months and it's not top 1%, now may be a good time to reconsider everything. claude code + opus 4.5 has changed what's possible and it'd suck to get the timing wrong by just a few months
  • @beffjezos @beffjezos on x
    Every moment not spent locked in on Claude Code feels very high opportunity cost all of a sudden
  • @gregisenberg Greg Isenberg on x
    claude code will probably make 50,000 people millionaires if not more
  • @skirano Pietro Schirano on x
    Claude Code isn't just for coding. I fed it my raw DNA data from an ancestry test and used it to find health related genes I should keep an eye on. The file is massive, but its ability to search what matters makes it possible. [image]

    in 2026 all of software becomes Claude Code in a trenchcoat

    I was inspired by this so I wanted to see if Claude Code can get into my Lutron home automation system. - it found my Lutron controllers on the local wifi network - checked for open ports, connected, got some metadata and identified the devices and their firmware [...] I am now v…
