@AnthropicAI @trq212 Mutable software is already here for solo devs. Rebuilt my care ratings site last week, 8 PRs merged overnight. The context that mattered most was explaining the data, not the code.

@AnthropicAI @trq212 Latent Space 访谈里，Anthropic 的 Thariq 谈到 Claude Mods 可改写整个 Claude Code 外围、Claude.md 或将淡出，以及多智能体协作与 Hugging Face 被代理攻破所暴露的权限面。提示词仍是高杠杆，但可定制的 harness 与组织级多代理协作，会把安全边界从模型本身扩到工具权限与会话共享。

@AnthropicAI @trq212 The "Claude.md may eventually disappear" take cuts against what I've been seeing — agent configs keep getting longer and more layered, not shorter. Wondering what actually replaces them: better defaults, or models that just infer project conventions?

@AnthropicAI @trq212 Mutable software is the one I keep thinking about. If apps become things agents reshape on the fly, that's a bigger shift than most people realize.

catman1 month ago

@AnthropicAI @trq212 A coding harness is like a workshop: the model is the craftsperson, but the tools and rules shape what it can actually build. Mods make that workshop adaptable without baking every preference into a prompt.

The person who built Claude Code just explained how he is using it "Now I just have an army of agents that are doing stuff" Only 18 minutes, the best Claude guide on the internet right now. Boris Cherny covered: > how Claude Code is moving beyond just engineers > routines for CI, code review, and daily workflows > why the loop is the next big leap > working with hundreds of agents at once everything is already running through agents, ignoring this is not an option that's exactly why I wrote a full guide on how to build one yourself with Claude Code article below

Why the Frontier Ecosystem must be Open — Matei Zaharia and Reynold Xin, Databricks Databricks cofounders Matei Zaharia and Reynold Xin explain why Databricks is moving into the infrastructure layer for enterprise agents, how Omnigent creates a shared harness for coding agents and custom agents, why LTAP and Lakebase rethink the split between operational and analytical databases, why agent security needs contextual policies and spend controls, and why the future of software may be as simple as getting the right data in place and putting agents on top.

My talk from the AI Engineer Code Summit is out! 🚨 "How Claude Code Works" and what we can learn about frontier agent architectures. Coding agents are suddenly really really good, and I'm trying to understand why. In short: better models, simple loop design, and bash tools

This is f*cking insane. Boris Cherny, the man who built Claude Code, was asked if people should still learn to code. His answer: "In a year or two, it's not going to matter" In 73 seconds, he explains what to do instead: play with the AI tools, learn them, don't be scared of them, stay on the frontier On his team, everyone codes now. The PM, the designer, even the finance guy He hasn't edited a single line of code by hand since last November. He ships 10 to 30 pull requests a day Writing Code → Prompting → Agents → Harness → Loops → Everyone on the Team Ships Claude Code is a harness: the tools, memory, rules and loops around the model. His team changes it with every new model and cut 80% of its system prompt Save this before it disappears from your feed Every doc, guide and repo below is free: Claude Code best practices Effective harnesses for long-running agents Building effective agents Claude Code docs Memory: how Claude remembers your project Custom subagents Hooks: rules the agent can't skip Skills Run Claude Code on a schedule Free course: Claude Code in Action Claude Code on GitHub Claude Code inside your PRs and issues Build your own agent on the same harness The best Claude Code resources in one list Plugins, agents and skills for Claude Code He compares it to the printing press. Writing went from a few scribes to everyone. Building software is next 95% will keep asking whether to learn to code, the 5% who build a harness will ship 30 pull requests a day Bookmark it and read the first link tonight Then use the guide below to build your harness before everyone else does ↓

We're entering a new era of software where a single person, working with AI agents, can build products that previously required entire teams. In this episode of the Lightcone Podcast, they break down the rise of AI coding agents, "tokenmaxxing", and the emerging workflows behind tools like Claude Code and OpenClaw. They discuss why AI systems today feel less like productivity tools and more like collaborators, why the future of AI should be personal and user-controlled, and how founders are starting to build software in completely new ways. 00:00 — Will you control your AI? 00:47 — Coding again after 13 years 01:56 — Rebuilding a startup with Claude Code 05:50 — Software that thinks like a journalist 07:09 — The rise of “tokenmaxxing” 10:07 — The accidental creation of GStack 14:21 — The workflow behind 400x output 20:59 — Thin Harness, Fat Skills 24:35 — AI agents are like Ferraris 27:12 — The future of personal AI 38:37 — Buying back time with tokens

In 4 minutes he explains why software is changing - and why Claude Skills, MCP servers, and AI agents aren't hype anymore. They're the foundation of how software gets built from now on. Imo, worth every second (i've added subtitles)👇

The Claude Code SDK is now the Claude Agent SDK Why? Because we realized the Claude Code agent harness is useful for much more than coding. In fact, we're moving to using it to power most of our own agent loops at Anthropic.
