Anthropic appears to have accidentally revealed the inner workings of one of its most popular and lucrative AI products …

    Claude code source code has been leaked via a map file in their npm registry! Code: https://pub-aea8527898604c1bbb12468b158 1d95e.r2.dev/ src.zip [image]

    A few take-aways from the Claude Code Leak: - Anthropic is actively using Capybara (Mythos) for development - they are already at Capybara v8 - Capybara still has issues with over-commenting and false-claims - Capybara has 1M context and fast mode - Numbat is another interesting

    Anthropic built two anti-distillation systems into Claude Code to stop competitors from training on its data One injects fake tool calls into your sessions to corrupt training data. another strips all tool call details into vague summaries before they leave the CLI [image]
  • @scaling01 @scaling01 on x
    they have kairos, dreaming, ultrathink, ultraplan, ultrareview and complete integration with github and slack [image]

    This is either brilliant or scary: Anthropic accidentally leaked the TS source code of Claude Code (which is closed source). Repos sharing the source are taken down with DMCA. BUT this repo rewrote the code using Python, and so it violates no copyright & cannot be taken down! [im…
  • @gergelyorosz Gergely Orosz on x
    Ironic how Anthropic sells Claude Code security reviews positioned as something v powerful (costing $15-25 per PR review), and being clear they use it on all PRs... then leaking all of Claude Code's code thanks to publishing their sourcemap. AI won't save you from yourself!
  • @scaling01 @scaling01 on x
    most interesting features in the Anthropic CC repo: - Kairos: always-on autonomous agent mode - dream: nightly memory consolidation - teammem: shared project memory - buddy: tamagotchi-like pet system with models
  • @stevekrouse Steve Krouse on x
    can someone at anthropic tell us who designed this / came up with these? it's very subtle and delightful and i want to give credit where it's due

  • @banteg @banteg on x
    claude code uses axios btw. i think the “package managers are evil” guy was right. at this point it makes no sense to use anything but pinned or delayed deps. possibly even vendored.

    Claude code generates random 4 character IDs Then they filter out 25 swears. Kenneth tried to tell them.. [image]

    Mythos is so good at security that Claude Code source code got leaked

    Claude Code leaked their source map, effectively giving you a look into the codebase. I immediately went for the one thing that mattered: spinner verbs There are 187 [image]

    claude code source is 512K lines opencode is 118K we're getting LOC mogged

    Instead of downloading and unzipping the whole codebase, here's a detailed, structured view of every file and folder so you can explore it like a product, not a zip dump: https://claude-code-info.vercel.app/

    wow claude code just got open sourced today is a big day.
  • @birdabo Sui on x
    JUST IN: Claude Code's full source code just leaked. hidden features found: > kairos - an unreleased autonomous daemon mode with background sessions and memory consolidation. always on agent. > buddy system - a full tamagotchi pet system. 18 species, rarity tiers, shiny [video]

    Anthropic, the $380B company we all know to be shipping at historical rates, forgot basic CI hygiene and dropped a 59.8MB source map of their entire Claude Code in npm. The 3rd time this has happened btw... I imagine Dario will be DMCA'ing the mirrors by morning, and pretending […

    Huge Anthropic leak just dropped: the entire Claude Code CLI source is now public. A misconfigured .map file in their npm package exposed a direct download link to the full unobfuscated TypeScript codebase from Anthropic's own R2 bucket. Discovered by Chaofan Shou

    wtf, biggest leak of the year. This is absolute insane. Claude code source code leaked. That was NOT on my bingo card.
  • @rihardjarc Rihard Jarc on x
    People are bearish on memory, but the leaked Claude Code source code is showing us some additional memory demand that the market hasn't priced in IMO. 1. The market thinks about AI memory demand as a server-side story: HBM on H100s/B200s for inference. What the bug reports

    Since it's confirmed that claude code is 90% vibe coded - you might want to switch to codex or something like that for a while, because it is pretty much guaranteed to have multiple 0-days that will be discovered now with these leaks. Even though it's supposed to only talk to

  • @agustinlebron3 Agustin Lebron on x
    Well duh. It's pretty obvious Claude Code is largely vibecoded and no one is actually paying attention to users, systematically fixing bugs, looking at what works and doesn't work, improving the experience, etc. It's just spaghetti-at-the-wall 24/7. Welcome to AI SaaS in 2026.

    NON-PROFESSIONAL & ENGAGEMENT BAIT: Anyone “classically trained” to write code pre-LLMs will take on look at the leaked Claude Code repo and see that it's a pile of unmaintainable slop. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that this doesn't actually matter. Coding is no
  • @jpschroeder Justin Schroeder on x
    Important takeaways from Claude's source code: 1. Much of Claude Code's system prompting is in the source code. This is actually surprising. Prompts are important IP, and I would have thought a sophisticated organization like Anthropic would have performed much or all of their
  • @rahatcodes Rahat on x
    Claude Code has a regex that detects “wtf”, “ffs”, “piece of shit”, “fuck you”, “this sucks” etc. It doesn't change behavior...it just silently logs is_negative: true to analytics. Anthropic is tracking how often you rage at your AI Do with this information what you will [image]
  • @intuitmachine Carlos E. Perez on x
    It's dumbfounding how Anthropic could accidentally release the source code of Claude Code. Are they just moving too fast for anyone to really know what safeguards are in place? Is the amount of code just too large that they can't even audit themselves for potential leaks? WTF

  • @theprimeagen @theprimeagen on x
    don't forget last time Anthropic, in their infinite PhD level wisdom, leaked their own source code (Feb 25) they DMCA'd all repos that had their code. Careful storing the code because Anthropic will have no mercy!

    The Claude Code leak isn't a big deal anymore and while it's cool to see, it's not showing us anything we didn't know. You could ask Claude to explain its harness and it would tell you in detail. Anthropic is probably rightfully upset, but this isn't a big deal. [image]
