Really nice idea, I'll give this a try tomorrow. Thanks for sharing!

This looks pretty cool but I'd want to be able to setup a bunch of my own project specific code smells, so it's not just a few generic rules. Is that the approach you've taken?

Then for example you could write your own hook and convert existing code smell documentation which agents ignore into a format that works with the hook.

I've built quite a few PoCs with Claude over the past few months. Sometimes I start with a mock-up/prototype, which I've written a skill for. On an existing project it looks at the styles and structure and builds a mock-up as separate HTML/CSS that runs as its own prototype but looks like it's part of the product. I often ask for three different options and then iterate until something feels right.

If I don't know what the project is yet, I ask Claude to put together open questions and I answer them one at a time to give it shape. That can take a couple of rounds until I feel like the direction is clear.

I've been building a suite of products to help manage this flow better because it feels like such a common pain point at the moment.

Wow, that's commitment. You must really love this game!

I didn't realise quite how expensive tokens were until last week. I got $250 of Claude tokens for free and burnt through them in less than a couple of hours with just one session.

Love this idea, thanks for sharing. I'll give it a try when I launch my next project!

This looks really interesting. I've used LogRocket a lot across a number of businesses with varying volume, mainly to try to uncover these kinds of issues. I know they have an AI layer now but I'd love to try this as an AI native alternative which gets straight to the problem solving. It could save hours of manually watching playback and a lot of effort coming up with potential problems/solutions etc.

That must have been a fun video and webpage to make! Especially the shrimp slider!

I love this! Although I've already gone through and made manual updates, I'll still give this a try. It's worth it even just to verify that I haven't missed anything. Thanks for sharing.

I'll be fascinated to see the financial details that could be made public from this.

Very cool. I'll definitely give this a try. I'd say code review is the most important part of a tool like this for me. How does it compare to Conductor?

I was talking to ChatGPT about the best way to achieve this a few days ago. Thanks for getting something running and sharing it!

I'll give this a try tomorrow, should be fun.

I think there may be an issue with your link, it's just taking me to the thrift books home page.

I also really enjoyed the writing style.

Brilliant interactive article. I was tracking the aircraft for a while on FlightRadar24.
