BREAKING: CEO discovers tokens cost money

@ThePrimeagen The LARP here is unreal. Rather than actually build something of value people want to APPEAR to build something.

If you blow 10k a month in tokens, that is your problem

If you blow $500 million in one month, that is Anthropic's problem

The negative press out there is wild these days. I would not want to be an engineer working it the AI dev-tooling world right now

[Brandon ✌︎('ω')✌︎ @BrandonMathis]

First github gets a 3rd party issues/downtime tracker and now Claude is getting a hate-site that is essentially a huge dump of all of it's "fails"

A lot of the conversation around coding agents focuses on the model.

The harness layer is just as important.

It’s what controls tools, execution flow, permissions, and the structure around how agents actually operate. Really solid breakdown of how systems like @Claudeai Code and #Codex work under the hood.

Review the anatomy of a harness with @BrandonMathis. Link in bio!

@ladyleet Tooling like this is where some real unlocks are for AI. OpenAI's Codex plugin for making GPT Apps is super good

Don't roll out AI to your team and just start acting like this

Walk through how tools like @claudeai Code and Codex actually operate under the hood, including how the harness manages tool access, file operations, execution loops, and deterministic control around the #LLM with @brandonmathis.

1/ At @ThisDotLabs, I built a Codex Plugin, called Build Web Data Visualization with DevEx Lead @coreyching from OpenAI.

With this plugin, Codex uses image gen to design the app and then implements it really well. See the examples below. Claude can’t do this!🧵

[Brandon ✌︎('ω')✌︎ @BrandonMathis]

$250k spent in 1 week on LLM tokens is wild.

I hate to burst everyone's bubble but there is no reality where an engineer will have this level of spending latitude.

The latest CodexBar update renders API costs wayyyy nicer. https://t.co/lJ4dxNHwzG

Once we connect all of our systems with AI and have clear insight into tokens utilized to build a piece of functionality, the REAL tokenmaxxers will be the ones shipping with 0 token spend 💸💸💸 📈📈📈 💪💪💪

I have been studying coding harness internals for quite some time now and created an infographic to help other devs understand the anatomy of a coding harness

The LARP has become real for Kevin O'Leary. This guy is so lost in the sauce that the character and person have completely blurred into a warped perspective on free market capitalism.
