Is this free? I don’t see pricing info. I guess just a way to make you forget that you’re spending money on tokens?
weird-eye-issue•52m ago
You don't spend money on tokens. It is a subscription.
arjie•1h ago
What's the per-unit-time compute cost (independent of tokens)? Compute deadline etc.? They don't charge for the Cloud Environment https://code.claude.com/docs/en/claude-code-on-the-web#cloud... currently running?

I feel like we are just inching closer and closer to a world where rapid iteration of software will be by default. Like for example a trusted user makes feedback -> feedback gets curated into a ticket by an AI agent, then turned into a PR by an Agent, then reviewed by an Agent, before being deployed by an Agent. We are maybe one or two steps from the flywheel being completed. Or maybe we are already there.
charcircuit•59m ago
Then sets up telemetry and experiments with the change. Then if data looks good an agent ramps it up to more users or removes it.
jvuygbbkuurx•48m ago
Tusted user like Jia Tan.
tossandthrow•44m ago
I think the Ai agent will directly make a PR - tickets are for humans with limited mental capacity.

At least in my company we are close to that flywheel.

Gigachad•19m ago
The agents have even more limited capacity

Tickets need to exist purely from a governance perspective.

Tickets may well not look like they do now, but some semblance of them will exist. I'm sure someone is building that right now.

No. It's not Jira.

yieldcrv•43m ago
We do feedback to ticket automatically

We dont have product managers or technical ticket writers of any sort

But us devs are still choosing how to tackle the ticket, we def don't have to as I’m solving the tickets with AI. I could automate my job away if I wanted, but I wouldn't trust the result as I give a degree of input and steering, and there’s bigger picture considerations its not good at juggling, for now

I am already there with a project/startup with a friend. He writes up an issue in GitHub and there is a job that automatically triggers Claude to take a crack at it and throw up a PR. He can see the change in an ephemeral environment. He hasn't merged one yet, but it will get there one day for smaller items.

I am already at the point where because it is just the two of us, the limiting factor is his own needs, not my ability to ship features.

jondwillis•16m ago
Why doesn’t he merge them?

I love everything about this direction except for the insane inference costs. I don’t mind the training costs, since models are commoditized as soon as they’re released. Although I do worry that if inference costs drop, the companies training the models will have no incentive to publish their weights because inference revenue is where they recuperate the training cost.

Either way… we badly need more innovation in inference price per performance, on both the software and hardware side. It would be great if software innovation unlocked inference on commodity hardware. That’s unlikely to happen, but today’s bleeding edge hardware is tomorrow’s commodity hardware so maybe it will happen in some sense.

If Taalas can pull off burning models into hardware with a two month lead time, that will be huge progress, but still wasteful because then we’ve just shifted the problem to a hardware bottleneck. I expect we’ll see something akin to gameboy cartridges that are cheap to produce and can plug into base models to augment specialization.

But I also wonder if anyone is pursuing some more insanely radical ideas, like reverting back to analog computing and leveraging voltage differentials in clever ways. It’s too big brain for me, but intuitively it feels like wasting entropy to reduce a voltage spike to 0 or 1.

bredren•28m ago
What you're describing is absolutely where we're headed.

But the entire SWE apparatus can be handled.

Automated A/B testing of the feature. Progressive exposure deployment of changes, you name it.

slopinthebag•27m ago
What kind of software are people building where AI can just one shot tickets? Opus 4.6 and GPT 5.4 regularly fail when dealing with complicated issues for me.
thin_carapace•21m ago
i dont see anyone sane trusting ai to this degree any time soon, outside of web dev. the chances of this strategy failing are still well above acceptable margins for most software, and in safety critical instances it will be decades before standards allow for such adoption. anyway we are paying pennies on the dollar for compute at the moment - as soon as the gravy train stops rolling, all this intelligence will be out of access for most humans. unless some more efficient generalizable architecture is identified.
withinboredom•13m ago
Not just complicated, but even simple ones if the current software is too “new” of a pattern they’ve never seen before or trained on.
eranation•19m ago
Um, we are already there...
Leptonmaniac•14m ago
I think that as a user I'm so far removed from the actual (human) creation of software that if I think about it, I don't really care either way. Take for example this article on Hacker News: I am reading it in a custom app someone programmed, which pulls articles hosted on Hacker News which themselves are on some server somewhere and everything gets transported across wires according to a specification. For me, this isn't some impressionist painting or heartbreaking poem - the entity that created those things is so far removed from me that it might be artificial already. And that's coming from a kid of the 90s with some knowledge in cyber security, so potentially I could look up the documentation and maybe even the source code for the things I mentioned; if I were interested.
gowthamgts12•1h ago
interesting to see feature launches are coming via official website while usage restrictions are coming in with a team member's twitter account - https://x.com/trq212/status/2037254607001559305.

also, someone rightly predicted this rugpull coming in when they announced 2x usage - https://x.com/Pranit/status/2033043924294439147

stingraycharles•1h ago
To me it makes perfect sense for them to encourage people to do this, rather than eg making things more expensive for everyone.

The same as charging a different toll price on the road depending on the time of day.

Looks like I'm limited to only 3 cloud scheduled tasks. And I'm on the Max 20x plan, too :(

"Your plan gets 3 daily cloud scheduled sessions. Disable or delete an existing schedule to continue."

But otherwise, this looks really cool. I've tried using local scheduled tasks in both Claude Code Desktop and the Codex desktop app, and very quickly got annoyed with permissions prompts, so it'll be nice to be able to run scheduled tasks in the cloud sandbox.

Here are the three tasks I'll be trying:

Every Monday morning: Run `pnpm audit` and research any security issues to see if they might affect our project. Run `pnpm outdated` and research into any packages with minor or major upgrades available. Also research if packages have been abandoned or haven't been updated in a long time, and see if there are new alternatives that are recommended instead. Put together a brief report highlighting your findings and recommendations.

Every weekday morning: Take at Sentry errors, logs, and metrics for the past few days. See if there's any new issues that have popped up, and investigate them. Take a look at logs and metrics, and see if anything seems out of the ordinary, and investigate as appropriate. Put together a report summarizing any findings.

Every weekday morning: Please look at the commits on the `develop` branch from the previous day, look carefully at each commit, and see if there are any newly introduced bugs, sloppy code, missed functionality, poor security, missing documentation, etc. If a commit references GitHub issues, look up the issue, and review the issue to see if the commit correctly implements the ticket (fully or partially). Also do a sweep through the codebase, looking for low-hanging fruit that might be good tasks to recommend delegating to an AI agent: obvious bugs, poor or incorrect documentation, TODO comments, messy code, small improvements, etc.

I ran all of these as one-off tasks just now, and they put together useful reports; it'll be nice getting these on a daily/weekly basis. Claude Code has a Sentry connector that works in their cloud/web environment. That's cool; it accurately identified an issue I've been working on this week.

I might eventually try having these tasks open issues or even automatically address issues and open PRs, but we'll start with just reports for now.

Here goes my project.
zmmmmm•48m ago
i'm missing something basic here .... what does it actually do? It executes a prompt against a git repository. Fine - but then what? Where does the output go? How does it actually persist whatever the outcome of this prompt is?

Is this assuming you give it git commit permission and it just does that? Or it acts through MCP tools you enable?

tossandthrow•47m ago
We use to do do automated sec audits weekly on the code base and post the result on slack
zmmmmm•46m ago
so is slack posting an MCP tool it has? or a skill it just knows?
tossandthrow•43m ago
In Claude it is a "connector" which is essentially an mcp tool.
jngiam1•39m ago
MCP tools. We're doing some MCP bundling and giving it here, pretty cool stuff.
jngiam1•40m ago
This is powerful. Combined with MCPs, you can pretty much automate a ton of work.
mkagenius•18m ago
This is a bit restrictive, doesn't take screenshots. So you can't "say take screenshots of my homepage and send it to me via email"

It doesnt allow egress curl, apart from few hardcoded domains.

I have created Cronbox in the cloud which has a better utility than above. Did a "Show HN: Cronbox – Schedule AI Agents" a few days back.
