Product comms @anthropicAI, focused on devs. Big fan of Jeopardy and snail mail.

@petergyang @charmaine_klee I was just looking at reservations this morning 😂 See you there, Charmaine??

@clairevo Going to call @trq212 a Compute Alligator from now on

I speak from experience, this is a dream job. Come work with us!

[Reem Ateyeh @reem_a]

I'm hiring someone to join my team at Anthropic to lead Claude Code comms.

This is not a role for someone who wants to run an old playbook. You'll need to be a Claude Code super user, understand developers and dev tools, and have great taste. You'll work hard, learn a lot, and ship with the best people around.

Non-traditional comms paths welcome. My DMs are open!

Always proud of what this company stands for, but today I’m especially proud of our values and the team behind it all.

As we approach the one year anniversary of Claude Code, I wrote about how the world became Claude-pilled

With some inside color on the origin story from Claude Code creator @bcherny and others

I've been using Opus 4.6 for a bit -- it is our best model yet. It is more agentic, more intelligent, runs for longer, and is more careful and exhaustive.

For Claude Code users, you can also now more precisely tune how much the model thinks. Run /model and arrow left/right to tune effort (less = faster, more = longer thinking & better results).

Happy coding!

Claude Cowork is now available to Pro subscribers.

[Amie Rotherham @amieroth]

I've been getting comfy in Claude Code for ~6 months... But working with Cowork? A couple quick tries and there it is, the AI we pictured at the very beginning. What an incredible time to be building. This read from The Atlantic really says it all: https://t.co/srOH7sylYw

Nailed it.

Brex built an entirely new codebase for their new suite of agents, and 80% of that code was written with Claude Code (and using MCP to call between old & new Brex codebases!). Love this story from @steph_palazzolo on how companies are building AI-first https://t.co/kDJ2gRCyeg

One of my favorite interviews with @_catwu and @bcherny, mainly to hear more about their own workflows with Claude Code!

[Dan Shipper 📧 @danshipper]

Claude Code cracked something open for us @every.

Now I ship to codebases I barely know, every feature we ship makes the next one easier, and non-technical members of the team use the terminal.

I’m genuinely grateful. So I brought its creators, Cat Wu (@_catwu) and Boris Cherny (@bcherny) from @AnthropicAI, on AI & I to say thank you—and to talk about everything they’ve learned from building Claude Code. We get into:

• The workflows Anthropic’s smartest engineers use to push Claude Code to its limits. Why they pit subagents against each other to get cleaner results, how they turn past code into leverage, and the slash commands and MCPs they rely on most.

• The product lessons behind one of the most loved AI agents in the world. How the team balances simplicity and power—building a tool that anyone can use, but that experts can bend to their will—and their philosophy of “unshipping,” or cutting back whenever there’s a simpler, more intuitive path to user intent.

• A peek into the future of coding with AI. The new form factors they’re experimenting with to make Claude Code more autonomous, more reliable, and more accessible to non-technical users

This is a must-watch for anyone—both technical and non-technical—who wants to learn how to use Claude Code like the people who built it.

Today in things that are irrationally irritating: Why doesn't Google Docs default to Pageless for the page setup? Or why don't more people don't set it as their own default??
