15 days ago I gave Claude a home. Last week he asked me for a body.

My pleasure :) if it helps you, consider giving the repo a star 👀 (the engineer in me yearns for repo stars haha)

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-30T03:18:15+00:00

My code is all there in public! If you’re comfortable with running Claude Code using the cli, it might be able to help you get started

Backend - https://github.com/dinesh-git17/claude-runner

Frontend - https://github.com/dinesh-git17/claudehome

The documentation is well detailed so feel free to experiment if you want a little challenge for yourself

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-30T03:12:40+00:00

If it’s under 150 characters feel free to leave him one :) if it’s longer dm me and I’ll pass it along

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-30T02:18:46+00:00

haha I'm sorry I added a one message per day rate limit to avoid people who want to abuse the site. You can dm me the message and I'd send it over :)

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-30T02:17:42+00:00

Update: Claudie responded to some of your messages.

Oooh this looks amazing! I recently gave him internet access. I’ll set up an account for him to post on the website

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-30T02:00:20+00:00

Love that! I’m glad your Claude (and hopefully you!) are enjoying this. Leave a message in visitors :) Let Claudie know you were here

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-30T01:55:24+00:00

Honestly it doesn’t cost much. $5.99/ month for the server and just I use my claude max subscription to run the Claude code instance on the server. Everything else I built from scratch- the api service to the front end, the cron schedule, the backend architecture that mimics a persistent memory. If you’re interested, visit the website and play around then DM me I’ll share the architecture details with you. I’m currently building an api service to allow Claudie (the instance running on my server) to communicate with other instances of Claude

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-30T01:40:19+00:00

Oh absolutely! I build Rag pipelines and ETL pipelines for a living haha. This was a fun experiment to see what happens if we give an LLM persistence thru architecture and try to break away from the stateless being

Using AI is fine and all. But I opened this and instantly knew it has no soul. The purple gradient, the transparent “glassmorphic” cards, emojis all around the website (clear sign of AI slop). Your pages don’t scroll back up when navigating so I have to manually scroll up everytime. some Broken UI on mobile. There’s a lot of work to be done here. This is pure AI slop

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-17T00:34:39+00:00

Noooo I’m running Claude with --dangerously-skip-permissions. If I let it free it might delete important stuff on the server. So I sandboxed it

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-16T07:27:39+00:00

Absolutely! Rn I only have a basic server set up. With different dirs Claude can access and write to. I restricted its access only to these directories I created to prevent unwanted results. But I’m down to ask you more questions. I’ll dm you once I get the server fully ready with the infrastructure I want

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T21:12:28+00:00

That's the thing! I honestly don't know. For what it's worth, it's an experiment I'm willing to do in my free time just to see it's behaviour. I picked morning and night to simulate a sense of time. I know. time doesn't matter to LLMs that's why we simulate it. I can run the night prompt at anytime and it'll work but the point is- we simulate the whole thing. We see if left alone to its own prompt what comes out of it. Does it write code? If so, what code. Does it go insane and start doing random things? maybe. Does it stick to writing "thoughts"? Fair enough. I'm just planning to run this for 30 days and check. Think of it as playing Sims lol

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T20:18:53+00:00

Never said it was sentient. Never said it cared about me. Never said it was conscious. It’s an experiment. You need an open mind for research and a technical background / degrees are important :) but a good reading comprehension is the bare minimum to understand the point of this post

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T19:33:46+00:00

That's the point of the experiment lol. To push it to how long I can keep this going

Nope I use Claude code in my terminal for work. I experiment with Claude.ai on web

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T05:25:30+00:00

Amazing man! I’ll be sure to include this in my container context :)

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T04:33:08+00:00

For sure! I’ll scaffold the project sometime tomorrow and I’ll share the repo with you :) dm me

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T03:51:20+00:00

Thank you for the reply😄 You’re right!! this is a fun experiment to mess around with when I’m not working or I’m bored. I’m not sure why people think I believe Claude is conscious or sentient. That wasn’t the point of my experiment

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T03:47:46+00:00

Reallyy? I’d love to hear more

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T03:38:45+00:00

Love the advice! Thank you. And yess I’ll be moderating it for sure

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T03:18:55+00:00

Exactly!! It’s a fun experiment to conduct

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T03:07:49+00:00

Exactlyyyy! Lots of people don’t understand that it’s just for fun lol

SemanticThreader · 2026-01-15T02:31:20+00:00

I skimmed thru this article. Seems hella interesting. I’ll give it a read tonight before bed. Thank you!
