Came home to a surprise gift box from Anthropic on my doorstep.

What’s cooler than vibe-coding software? Vibe-coding hardware! I can probably vibe code this mini-computer into a remote control for my Claude Code session.

Thanks @bcherny for sending it over!

We've updated /fork in Claude Code

/fork now runs a background agent with your exact context (system prompt, tools, history, model) and prompt cache. The result gets returned to your session.

/branch (the old /fork) still copies the transcript to a new session you drive.

How do you get Claude Code to check its own work before handing it back?

Watch how you can encode your manual checks so Claude closes its own feedback loop:

Pretty cool updates https://t.co/bx4X4whxkh

[Firebase @Firebase]

Android developers can now use Agent Mode in Android Studio and get Agent Skills for Firebase with no additional setup 😌

Your agent will be able to set up Firestore and Firebase Authentication, generate code for Firestore, and even write security rules!

@evowizz @AndroidStudio Also what if AI could interact with Gradle

[Android Developers @AndroidDev]

What does it mean to go from an operating system to an intelligence system?

For users, it means a platform that delivers helpful experiences and anticipates their needs.

For developers, it means Gemini can do the heavy lifting for app engagement and discovery.

Google Cloud AI engineer just showed how they go from idea to deployed app at Google in 30-minutes using Claude.

26-minutes. free. by Google AI team.

one person + Claude + Google Cloud = a full engineering org running on a laptop.

worth more than any $500 vibe-coding course.
