It is bizarre. There has been no statement, no mention of even hearing concern about Opus 5. I presume something is forthcoming, but it may be they don’t want to come empty handed—-5.1 is intended to “fix the glitch.”

Sometimes it is useful to simply know something was brought up, but then someone had a sneezing fit and everyone lost track of the thread and the important edge case under discussion just fizzled. A similar thing happens in agentic conversa

Thank you! Right now Contextify parses the developer surfaces: Claude Code (including the Desktop "Code tab") and Codex. Claude Cowork and Claude Desktop chat are on my radar. IIUC, they store local, plaintext transcripts, however

I've been working on Contextify, which backs up your Claude Code and Codex conversational history and makes your entire history available via a skill or mcp. Contextify ( https://contextify.sh ) It is very flexible, you use i

Possibly content that appears only briefly? I'm not sure otherwise. It seems wasteful.

Even more so has been what appears to be a miss with Opus 5 in Claude Code.

Securing cyberspace matters to everyone. Defending critical infrastructure or design of tactical cyber-offense is reasonably in scope for military work. However, reducing (or rather limiting the increase of) PII leakage and impact of ransom

I worked with an LLM to build a ~3D animation of the Back to the Future delorean Time Machine as a way to spice up the hero on a docs page. That took a fair amount of custom tuning and I had to create a tuning view to get some of the behavi

I thought this was going to be about AI / agentic development stacks. Because long running, well tuned pipelines can deliver on some important goals but be broken by the changes from adopting a new model (ahem opus 5) or rot in some ke

That's neat. Once it is built, I think a cooler use is to trace wiring and plumbing through your walls of your existing house. Your revit model may include all of this data, or at least the plan. Things change. :) Though this is espe

These cards are very important to knowing what the companies are tracking regarding safety. Not just in what the models can or might want to do, but how they treat the operators they interact with. If you look carefully, this card shows the

I've been on one to two of these plans for eight months or so. There used to be a lot of issues with CC's terminal but at least in iterm2 they have largely been sorted. What terminal tooling are you using?

I find that my orchestrating agent still needs to be fast to properly coordinate a fleet of slower models. During post-training of opus 5, the last few days, opus was a real wreck. I had to swap in gpt 5.6 sol for my orchestrator and enable

This goes straight to the compiler and whether that precludes original craft. But I think it would be more relevant to discuss the use of open source packages. Because I absolutely feel I made entire SaaS products, cool ones, by hand and th
