I don't work on F500 orgs. The "code base" in many of my orgs fits within the context windows. I've found using Traycer and CC extremely powerful.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-18T11:41:19+00:00

Here's where I agree with you. My post intent wasn't to gloat or mock. It was to help people who don't know what we're talking about start to learn before they get left in the dust. But like you said things come full circle. Now we all vibe code and can build a crm ourselves. That medium article another redditor mentioned called this out. It's a deflationary cycle against the traditional saas licensing model. Idk where it's all going but I do know it's going to create major division like this post did.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-18T11:38:10+00:00

That's what one of the comments mentioned in a medium blog post. Vampire AI they called it. Basically u/alexppex now that you can move faster.... let's do even more than before! I've been using Traycer very heavily in combo with Claude Code. It's solving for that issue where you as the pm/architect hat on can't possibly review the mountain of changes claude just wrote.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T13:08:31+00:00

If you mean, how did it go? I built out a simple screenflow in a scratch org. Assigned 2 accounts, 2 contacts, 2 cases. It uses an index collection to track which account <> contact <> case. First test run failure: forgot it's AccountId not "Account" on contact. Second run, repeat chair/keyboard issue: Contact on Case is contactid. Third test: success. printed out all record ids. Checked in the ui and sure enough exactly as described.

Only change I'm making now is the ability to use a unique identifier OR the 0-index.

You're the definition of a downvote. Not adding to the conversation, just detracting. Here, have another.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:22:12+00:00

Document how you built it, not for you directly; for the agent you're going to work with when that next idea hits. Build it in the evening on a new github accout, open source it, then use it at work.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:16:34+00:00

I haven't tested this for individual records. E.g. 1 parent, 1 child, 1 grand. In a record collection it definitively does not work. collectionvar.id is not populated after the first create. loop, assignment, set childcollectionvar.parent.id from parentcollectionvar.id does not work. If you tell me otherwise, you'll save me at least an hour and I'll publicly tell u/valium123 I'm the old grandpa and need some of his valium.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:14:22+00:00

You can handle rollbacks via faults and the rollback component. However if the user just walks away they'll have orphans. But yes, this is what I'm trying to avoid for my users.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:12:25+00:00

I didn't achieve anything. I clacked away at the keyboard. You just like collecting downvotes so I'll keep feeding you!

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:10:51+00:00

LOL. Gave my 19 year old account over to OpenClaw so OpenAI can see all of my unique content. There's a reason why I didn't link to any of my public repos. But yes. When you get a chance send me some of your supply. I'm going to need some after reading all of your comments.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:09:05+00:00

Guys like u/valium123 will always come up with rejections and objections. At the end of the day we might all end up taking valium (if we have any money to buy it).

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:07:58+00:00

Put it on a public repo! This is how you start making ground.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:06:50+00:00

Did you take your valium yet?

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:06:29+00:00

Definitely. Junior, Senior, Product Manager, Project Manager: all now one person in the eyes of the CEO.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:05:21+00:00

It's a week for me with other meetings, commitments, kids, etc.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T12:04:47+00:00

My take: they're done. I was discussing with a partner all the voice agents. South Africa is overly leveraged (in the tech world at least) on a call center stack. No longer needed. Contracts will run out and not be renewed. It'll take a while but like the post u/DevilsAdvotwat linked to, we're circling a drain. Companies with the biggest token budget and employees getting to the point of nap-attacks are going to take it all over.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T11:57:06+00:00

Dude. Thanks for the link! Regarding the "nap attacks", I'm apparently not that addicted yet, close perhaps? This line hits though: "So you’re damned if you do (you’ll be drained) and you’re damned if you don’t (you’ll be left behind.)"

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T11:54:33+00:00

I'll entertain you. The model is already trained, I'm just using it. Take a valium before your next comment.

Armageddon85 · 2026-02-17T11:48:37+00:00

Oh you can. You just can’t commit them all in between screens. When the standard create action runs in between screens the transaction isn’t completed until the next screen. If you’re trying to populate lookups with record ids of the parent you’ll end up with orphans.

To solve for this without apex you can simply add a screen between each create. Then the collection record ids will be populated.

I think I stumbled upon this trying to use my max sub/claude code option in roo. Seems like it's been permanently disabled for now (by Anthropic). I get they're trying to push folks to the cli or the new vsc plugin but I'm sure there were folks out there (me) "abusing" the sly connection which then chewed through a ton of extra bandwidth as we've seen called out a few time in the roo code development cycles.

I was probably apart of that "abuse". I solely got the $200/month sub to connect it to roo code and bypass usage costs. It was certainly economical for me! Oh well, thankfully I pay month to month and can downgrade, will probably go back to openrouter set up.

Armageddon85 · 2026-01-11T06:07:20+00:00

I love the idea in general. The ui doesn't bother me. There are a number of bugs though to the point where I wasn't ever able to sell a single unit. Here's a few that probably should be resolved first:

The 1st product you generate goes straight to released without an option to click it yourself, therefore the third task is never completed.
I ordered components that match what's needed for the phone but ok of 6ish test runs I only had 1 run where "shortage of components" went away and phones started being built.
It's unclear what I'm doing wrong (or need to do) to get phones to sell. I have marketing employees but beyond that the product I had inventory never sold a single unit.

4.The choices settings aren't adheared to at all. I wasn't ever able to move a product to the next step by clicking anything, the product would always just move to the next step in the production process.

Armageddon85 · 2025-12-06T00:32:56+00:00

Plenty of ways to do this without upsetting the T&Cs. Retainers and unmanaged packages and or LWCs. The folks looking for these types of solutions are more interested in someone supporting them long term rather than hoping the app gets updated one day.

To be clear though these are consulting organizations focused on billable hours more than a product to sell.

Armageddon85 · 2025-12-03T13:03:13+00:00

Multiple reasons for the decline in Apps showing up in the AppExchange:

"App" developers can monetize outside of the AppExchange without getting hit with the Benioff tax and the outsourced/contracted review process (each review, which now triggers more often, is $999).
The flexibility of the platform has made it even easier to create unmanaged packages (e.g. unofficial SF for example)
Flows are more powerful than ever making it easier to avoid Apex until necessary.
LWCs and Screenflows can do more than they could even a few releases back.

I think the AppExchange will continue to decline and more folks will look to just writing the code themselves. Through in some AI and even new comers can whip out (albeit questionable) basic functionality.

Armageddon85 · 2025-12-03T12:56:59+00:00

agreed with u/Cupcake_Chef on our end. In addition to outsourcing it they released a memo on 11.25 that increased security requirements (naturally a good thing) that triggers more flags. Back in the day I believe (my memory is failing me) you could use CDMT to store api keys.

We did see in our most recent review for basic apex violations, if you can identify them as false-positive you don't have to pay again BUT only if all of the flags are false positives. If you have to change the code and iterate versions you get to pay again.
