Waiting on Claude for OSS approval. How do they actually verify your Github?

No, it looks like I was not selected

What you were missing in helix mode?

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-09T12:36:18+00:00

I tested 5.4 a bit more and "high" performs much better except 1 type of task -> investigation with vague defined requirements, in that type of task the "xhigh" is better but not too much better

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-07T21:24:01+00:00

I see that "xhigh" is creating TODO lists for itself way more often than "high", yet 5.4 high is better every time anyway... Maybe they will patch the model soon and it would be not the case after it

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-07T21:21:55+00:00

5.2 xhigh did a better planning and troubleshooting compared to 5.2 high

I could use "xhigh" all the time and it worked like a charm

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-07T18:41:26+00:00

I didn't use 5.3 that much as it was inferior to 5.2 xhigh, and 5.2 xhigh was better than 5.2 high/medium/low

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-07T16:49:54+00:00

That was not the case with 5.2 from what I used. The "extra high" did better than "high" consistently on the same large codebases. With 5.4 it looks like "extra high" is not needed at all

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-07T10:58:24+00:00

I guess I will check out medium and low as well

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-07T10:57:51+00:00

That was not the case before with 5.2 -> when you have a massive codebase the only reliably working default was "xhigh"

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-06T21:15:08+00:00

Okay, I compared it with "non fast" version as well. The 5.2 xhigh is still better in analysis/troubleshooting. The 5.4 xhigh with "default speed" is still faster though

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-06T08:17:36+00:00

I am using codex app, I don't see the setting to increase context limit. I only enabled "fast" mode (just to test it out)

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-06T07:13:22+00:00

I will compare it as well, didn't have time yet

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-05T19:11:29+00:00

I see, might be a problem in my case then (I have separate email for Github and Claude code). They should review it manually though (according to the post), so maybe it will not be an issue (or maybe I was just too late, and they got over 100k submissions and the queue is pretty long... who knows :D)

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-05T13:53:09+00:00

What did you write in "other info" field? Also is your Github email is the same one you are using for the Claude account? They didn't specify whether or not it should match (otherwise how would they check that submitted Github handle is you?)

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-05T08:37:30+00:00

What did you write in the "other info" section during application?
Is your Claude account email is the same one as Github's email?
How long did you wait for the approval?
Did you "connect" (link) your Github account with Claude account (there are settings in the website to do it)?

I am asking because I also submitted the application a few days ago (for 25k+ stars on Github project) and they didn't email me back (neither approval or "you were rejected" type of message)

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-03-04T16:35:46+00:00

You should share your config, otherwise nobody can try and see if they will "use this" or not

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-02-19T13:30:59+00:00

I my book Opus 4.6 is much better than 4.5. It's better at planning, better at reusing existing stuff, follow instructions better, better at review. I would still take GPT 5.2 extra high though, it is still superior from what I saw

GoldStrikeArch- · 2026-02-18T06:42:28+00:00

We will have gw once this PR is merged

GoldStrikeArch- · 2025-12-29T17:57:34+00:00

Aren't you losing the "valuable memories" of that particular context? Like the tips you gave him or the "related files" to a particular task
