My skills repo has 160K stars, 7.5m downloads...

...and no tutorial.

So, here it is. Watch me walk through the essential skills:

- /grill-with-docs
- /to-spec
- /to-tickets
- /implement
- /code-review

It's the whole flow, end-to-end. Enjoy:

New in Claude Code: /checkup

Run /checkup to:

1. Clean up unused skills/MCPs/plugins and save context
2. Dedup your local CLAUDE.md against the checked in CLAUDE.md
3. Break up root CLAUDE.md into nested CLAUDE.md's + skills
4. Turn off slow hooks
5. Update your Claude Code to the latest version
6. Enable auto mode by default
7. Pre-approve frequently denied read-only commands

.. And a few other goodies.

/checkup confirms with you before making any changes. Enjoy!

A second strategy: use Fable 5 as an orchestrator.

Fable 5 plans and delegates to workers (Sonnet 5).

Most tokens are billed at the lower worker rate.

Wrote an article on different types of loops and what Claude Code features you can use. Hope it helps!

Smol tip: /𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚔 is perfect for mid-task side quests.

It spawns a subagent that inherits the whole conversation, runs in the background while you keep working on your main quest, and comes back with an update.

great post by @delba_oliveira

Smol tip: /𝚌𝚍 moves your running Claude Code session to another directory without restarting.

Your conversation and context come with you, and Claude picks up the new project's CLAUDE.md.

[Boris Cherny @bcherny]

In the next version of Claude Code: subagents run in the background by default, so you can keep talking to Claude while your subagents work

If you want your agent to run in the foreground, just tell Claude

Fable turned my remarkable into Tom Riddle's diary from Harry Potter.

My prompts fade, a LLM respond.

Magical!

@kunchenguid @kunchenguid I was using firstmate with herdr. And observed sometime the notification of work completion was not picked up successfully.
Using: opencode + glm-5.2 (max) on macos.

From claude it works just fine. 🚀

fable 5 cost cut is here

someone found a way to make Fable up to ~70% cheaper

by turning claude code context into images and having the model OCR it

humans are crazy, we’ll do anything to make things cheaper lmaoo

try it out, it’s open source on GitHub

@kunchenguid Don't go as a marketing strategist. 😁

TL;DR ELI5 of @trq212's new article: Claude isn't the bottleneck anymore. The stuff you forgot to tell it is.

Your prompt is a map. The codebase is the actual road. Every pothole you didn't mention, Claude fills with its best guess, and the more work you hand it, the more it has to guess. The skill of agentic coding is shrinking that gap.

🗺️ Your unknowns come in four flavors: what you said, what you know you haven't decided, what's so obvious you never wrote it down, and what you never considered at all
🔦 Starting unfamiliar work? Do a blindspot pass: literally ask Claude to find your unknown unknowns and teach you to prompt better
🎨 Know it when you see it? Prototype first. 4 wildly different HTML mockups is cheaper than one wired-up wrong guess
🎤 Let Claude interview you, one question at a time, starting with answers that would change the architecture
📁 Can't describe what you want? Point at a reference. Source code beats screenshots, even in another language
📋 Ask for a plan that leads with what you're most likely to change: data models, interfaces, UX
📝 During the build: an implementation-notes.md that logs every deviation from the plan
🧪 After: make Claude quiz you on the change. Only merge when you pass

Every brainstorm, interview, prototype, and reference is a cheap way to find out what you didn't know before it gets expensive to fix.

[Thariq @trq212]

I’ve found the most important part of working with Fable is discovering my own unknowns so I can prompt it better, heres how I do that.

Linux creator Linus Torvalds:

"LLMs don't fix the underlying issue — they may fix the immediate problem, but the bug remains, waiting in the hallway to hit you in another place instead"

That may change, but right now, the good taste is mostly lacking

@kunchenguid @herdrdev I'll test and report. Was watching since it was in preview mode. Did you resolve all the limitations that you mentioned earlier? Thanks

[Kun Chen @kunchenguid]

another big release today - firstmate now supports both tmux and @herdrdev as the session manager

i'm blown away by how big of an upgrade herdr is compared to tmux, and how cleanly it maps to firstmate's working model

when firstmate is run within a herdr session, it will:
- map secondmates to spaces
- group crewmates under the corresponding secondmate's space
- leverage herdr's event driven architecture to watch for crewmate updates

i have completed replaced tmux with herdr by now and it's been working very smoothly so far

along with this update, i've also completed an abstraction layer in firstmate to support different session managers. zellij and orca are coming next!

I've heard a lot of questions about Fable's availability on subscription plans.

While it will come off subscriptions after July 7th, we aim to restore Fable as a standard part of our subscriptions as soon as capacity allows, as we mentioned in our original blog post.
