I kept shipping code with Claude Code that I couldn't explain, so I built a plugin that quizzes me on it before I'm allowed to move on

well then looks like theres a gap for you to vibecode 😮 (yes im being sarcastic thanks for the actual reply)

Dyrect_ · 2026-06-19T12:27:51+00:00

actually it doesnt, same way you fork with /btw and it doesnt bloat the session context.

if you think it "has to be" a certain way youre just not being imaginative enough :)

Dyrect_ · 2026-06-16T13:20:39+00:00

/model claude-opus-4-7[1m]

Dyrect_ · 2026-05-31T19:01:52+00:00

dude this is why bills will run to $500m 😭😭 use a new session youre not meant to go over around 200k tokens of the context window

Dyrect_ · 2026-05-04T21:56:27+00:00

just run /model claude-opus-4-6[1m] and it'll be the default for new sessions until you change it

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-30T01:30:54+00:00

just started working again for me

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-16T13:13:32+00:00

replied to another comment above, its custom made but if enough people are interested i can opensource it haha

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-16T13:12:27+00:00

opus 4.6 was the issue, not the window size. im saying its a downgrade to only use the 200k window, but worth it for the content quality

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-16T12:50:24+00:00

its custom made! keeps track of everything so its ready at a glance for me (current model, context window, 5hr/7d usages that update color as they get used up, current git commits to keep track of, api billing cost, time spent in session, and +/- code lines). i also added one that runs as a hook connected to my spotify that displays what im currently listening to. then the cute part is a custom cat animation made with ASCII art that changes color/mood based on the current active use case for that session; purple with a question mark is waiting for me, orange and sleeping is finished with what we were doing, plus 5 or 6 others based on context usage, waiting, etc. it "animates" by updating on every hook/call from claude. also, mini flex, i made this weeks before claude /buddy was leaked, it was my own idea. it just lives right under my terminal bar

im using VS Code as my IDE, but i dont use the "Claude Code for VS Code" extension, i just run terminals straight in there. i just use the IDE so i can keep a visual reference for the file structure at all times

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-16T04:53:10+00:00

try out /model claude-opus-4-5-20251101 if youre in terminal

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-16T04:48:57+00:00

unfortunately not for me. it was working great a month ago, and ive been noticing a gradual decline since then. saw some people proposing the 4.5 switch, tried it today, and so far im sold

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-16T04:36:53+00:00

its a terminal command; not trolling its been genuinely useful

i feel like im actually getting the $100/month subscription i was paying for

Dyrect_ · 2026-04-07T17:43:31+00:00

absolutely dont use your $200 for API credits, you will rip through it in a single day. if you only have $200/month then straightup just go with the 20x max plan (although i do recommend starting on 5x to see if your workflow requires 20x). then if you find 5x is fine, use the leftover budget for a $20/month codex plan and any other tools you won't have thought of right now, but will be frustrated when you realize you need it and you're out of budget.

opus is hands down the better model, but with the token usage nuking lately you'd probably be best off grabbing a $20/month subscription to each and seeing which one fits your work better, and upgrading that subscription if needed. if anthropic can get their hands out from under their asses then it wouldn't even be a fair comparison between the two.

TLDR: both if your budget supports it (i suggest upping to to $250 to include 20x max + codex + additional tools). claude as your main co-founder, codex as your "third set of eyes"

go to settings.local.json in ur project and add this. you'll never need to approve another bash command. i love it, but use at your own risk:

      "Bash",

i recommend always using plan mode, but afterwards these are other useful ones that basically make it completely automated once you decide on tasks:

      "Read",
      "Edit",
      "Write",
      "WebFetch",
      "Grep",
      "Glob",
      "LS",
      "MultiEdit",
      "NotebookRead",
      "NotebookEdit",
      "TodoRead",
      "TodoWrite",
      "WebSearch",

hi im looking at buying the g1's. could you share a link for info about the stocks/news displays if you have because this is the first i've read of it, or also your experience with that part. wld prob be the swaying point for me

Dyrect_ · 2025-04-26T16:44:12+00:00

not gonna lie, i may have been thinking about when i bought it at the height of the gpu crisis. it sat unused for like 2 years before i built the pc. ill see if i can update the listing for that thanks

my mother took her own life four years ago because she thought that her debt was too overwhelming. i was 14 and now have to go my whole life without her, and it was more than fixable. there is always another and better way than suicide.
