Claude Code is All You Need
When I first joined Anthropic I was surprised to learn that lots of the team used Claude Code as a general agent, not just for code.
I’ve since become a convert! I use Claude Code to help me with almost all the work I do now, here’s how:
🚀 Exciting update: I'll be graduating in ~6 months with a PhD in Computer Science (Cybersecurity) from @UCRiverside.
I’m actively exploring full-time researcher roles—focused on networking, security, wireless, cryptography, and protocol design/attacks.
🏆 My work has led to:
• 2x @PwnieAwards nominations (2023, 2025)
• 1x Pwn2Own winner
• First-authored publications at top venues (2x @acm_ccs, 2x @BlackHatEvents)
• Recent research internship with @PaloAltoNtwks.
If your team is hiring—or if you know of opportunities—Find my email address at https://t.co/UkIBu5eSbY, and referrals are hugely appreciated 🙏

Our Team Hoosiers won the🥇place in the AI Safety track of AgentX (Spring ‘25) and🥈 place in the Safety track of Agents MOOC Hackathon (Fall ‘24). Thanks to @BerkeleyRDI! Credits to: PhD students @Ri7erLi, Jian Cui; faculty @xiaojingliao and myself.
My 10k-word writeup on exploiting a heap-overflow in Llama.cpp's RPC Server's Tensor-operation to RCE. This by far is one of the most challenging but fun exploitation I've ever researched on.

Mitigating racial bias from LLMs is a lot easier than removing it from humans!
Can’t believe this happened at the best AI conference @NeurIPSConf
We have ethical reviews for authors, but missed it for invited speakers? 😡
