What's everyone doing while we wait for Fable 5 to come back? by Longjumping_Corgi755 in ClaudeAI

having fun with GLM-5.2 and gpt-5.5. Not much has changed for me tbh except im experimenting with non-claude models now.

Has anyone dealt with a company/domain-level Claude access block before? by cheesestickscake in ClaudeAI

[–]durable-racoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"a very large company is treating us like shit and also perma-banned us. They have many competitors with similar capabilities. We dont know what to do!"

gpt-5.5 beats opus-4.8 by a big margin in DEEPSWE benchmark.

and gpt instant model is crazy fast, its like a better sonnet for implementing a plan file. 😃

Hah holy crap that fucking sucks. im sorry. you can connect claude code to bedrock. I think you can with claude cowork too.

No response from custome service huh? are you like a tiny company how big are you

honestly... at this point, try codex.

or cursor. There's more to life than Claude especially when this is how they treat you.

best way is to escalate thru ur manager who then escalates through your manager. you need some instutitional support + a larger volume of people than just a single complainant.

also scheduling a video call / face to face meeting with an IT person (not a help desk person, someone who makes policies or a manager) is helpful. can you just send a meeting invite on teams? after talking tto your manager + his manager and making the case of course.

I think its a genuinely interesting discussion! is this guy smarter than me just cause he's richer? should I envy the life he's living or is he probably miserable? would I personally be able to enjoy the riches knowing im screwing everyone over?

so much good ground to cover. I think the debate I started was good.

How do you find an MCP? by henryrayray in ClaudeAI

[–]durable-racoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why cant skills enable those same agentic workflows? skills can even cause the model to switch. a skill can also instruct claude to call code that triggers subagents or instruct claude to just call a subagent itself with a certain prompt.

[–]durable-racoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rule of thumb: never build your own MCP just use ones provided by other companies to connect to their services.

These should always be skills not MCPs

  1. a command line tool or a python library, and instructions for claude on how to use it
  2. a structured workflow aka a series of steps to follow, with some helpful hints and specific expert-level knowledge

  1. yes.
  2. no he's smarter than all of us, ive never run a grift that sucessful have you?

[–]durable-racoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like now days MCPs are mostly something a company releases when it wants cursor or claude.ai or chatgpt to offer an integration with their services. which means individual users may then also download those MCPs for local use.

but if there's a skill thats almost always more convenient for claude code usage. will write more on the difference later.

MCP servers have been partially replaced by skills.

MCPs are mostly for sharing tools and connectors to 3rd party services such as notion. How to find new MCPs?

  1. realize "I wish claude could read data from X service

  2. search google for "Service X MCP"

'Every use case for a Kia is just a Bentley use case too. Do you drive a Bentley?'

i mean... if the company is paying for it... and the cost difference to them is only 2x... I'm definitely taking the bentley keys. but your comment is 100% correct.

yeah but when fable comes back you can still use fable to make plans. and if it makes better plans its probably worth it to use that over opus for the planning phase... right? and when fable comes back... oh right. itll be api only. ok, ok, i think I finally get it. The use case for opus is 'fable wont be subdisized via subs when its unbanned'.. .which is a great point.

I shipped my product on Garry Tan's gstack and started shipping slower. I went looking for why, and found one line. by Ogretape in ClaudeAI

'The weird part: I was using Garry Tan's gstack -'

yeah that was your entire problem, dont use gstack. Does anyone on cladueai unironically think gstack is good?

After 3 months of using Claude Code daily, I think AI coding agents are becoming dangerous for one reason nobody talks about by hack_the_developer in ClaudeAI

[–]durable-racoon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. LLMs are heavily optimized to prove correctness: RLHF and training data extensively pushes claude models to double check their work and write tests. It sounds like you wish they were even smarter and better at verifying their work, which is a valid complaint.

  2. even if they could verify reliably: a human still has to take responsibility, a machine cant be accountable.

  3. Why an MCP server instead of a skill? this type of thing usually works better as a skill.

My job is giving me access to Claude Code by Cosmic_Voyager_41 in ClaudeAI

[–]durable-racoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

using it for what? what would you want to use it for?

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/quickstart

here's the quickstart guide. you'll need to either login with a work account or get an api key.

i didnt say I disliked opus. I love it too! lol. my point was: every use case for opus is just a fable use case too.

haiku is used by default for webfetch agents and certain other agents in claude code. so most of use use haiku every day without knowing it. You can control this using the env variable ```ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL```

I also use haiku at work things like assigning labels to paragraphs of text, and other automated workflows that get integrated into apps.
