<p>Love the writing style!<p>> Nothing beats an organic, pasture-raised, hand-written spec.<p>Hah, I strongly empathize with the wording. I’ve been starting my design docs for fellow humans with “100% hand-written, organic content”, I might steal a part of yours.<p>Overall, cool idea. I don’t see myself using your SaaS, but the approach of tagging the requirements and constraints to make them easier to find sounds good.<p>One project you didn’t mention which I think is also, I think, a cool perspective on this is codespeak.dev , but I haven’t given it a go yet.<p>All in all, I feel like maintaining specs, and having agents translate spec diffs into code diffs is a promising area for the future. Good thing I enjoy writing!</p>

<p>I’ve never been one to complain about new models, and also didn’t experience most of the issues folks were citing about Claude Code over the last couple months. I’ve been using it since release, happy with almost each new update.<p>Until Opus 4.7 - this is the first time I rolled back to a previous model.<p>Personality-wise it’s the worst of AI, “it’s not x, it’s y”, strong short sentences, in general a bulshitty vibe, also gaslighting me that it fixed something even though it didn’t actually check.<p>I’m not sure what’s up, maybe it’s tuned for harnesses like Claude Design (which is great btw) where there’s an independent judge to check it, but for now, Opus 4.6 it is.</p>

<p>I would risk a guess that people have a wrong intuition about the long-context pricing and are complaining because of that.<p>Yeah, the per-token price stays the same, even with large context. But that still means that you're spending 4x more cache-read tokens in a 400k context conversation, on each turn, than you would be in a 100k context conversation.</p>

<p>Honestly, for now they seem to be buying companies built around Open Source projects which otherwise didn't really have a good story to pay for their development long-term anyway. And it seems like the primary reason is just expertise and tooling for building their CLI tools.<p>As long as they keep the original projects maintained and those aren't just acqui-hires, I think this is almost as good as we can hope for.<p>(thinking mainly about Bun here as the other one)</p>

<p>A reasonably cool part about this approach (duplicating the commits, though I suppose you could just add your own bookmark on the existing commit, too) is that you can easily diff the current pr state with what you last reviewed, even across rebases, squashes, fixups, etc. Will have to give that a go.<p>Unfortunately GitHub still doesn't make that easy, and branch `push --force`'s make it really hard to see what changed, would be amazing if they ever fixed that.<p>In general, I think with the rise of agentic coding, and more review work, I hope we see some innovation in the "code review tooling" space. Not AI reviewers (that's useful too but already works well enough)! I want tools that help the human review code faster, more effectively, and in a more pleasant way.<p>Of course can't end the comment without the obligatory "jj is great, big recommend, am not affiliated, check out the blog post I wrote a year ago for getting started with it[0]", ha! I'm still very happy with it, no going back.<p>[0]: <a href="https://kubamartin.com/posts/introduction-to-the-jujutsu-vcs/" rel="nofollow">https://kubamartin.com/posts/introduction-to-the-jujutsu-vcs...</a></p>

<p>This is actually... pretty cool?<p>Definitely won't use it for prod ofc but may try it out for a side-project.<p>It seems that this is more or less:<p><pre><code>  - instead of modules, write specs for your modules
  - on the first go it generates the code (which you review)
  - later, diffs in the spec are translated into diffs in the code (the code is *not* fully regenerated)
</code></pre>
this actually sounds pretty usable, esp. if someone likes writing. And wherever you want to dive deep, you can delve down into the code and do "microoptimizations" by rolling something on your own (with what seems to be called here "mixed projects").<p>That said, not sure if I need a separate tool for this, tbh. Instead of just having markdown files and telling cause to see the md diff and adjust the code accordingly.</p>

<p>This seems to agree with my own previous tests of Sonnet vs Opus (not on this version). If I give them a task with a large list of constraints ("do this, don't do this, make sure of this"), like 20-40, Sonnet will forget half of it, while Opus correctly applies all directives.<p>My intuition is this is just related to model size / its "working memory", and will likely neither be fixed by training Sonnet with Opus nor by steadily optimizing its agentic capabilities.</p>

<p>So tldr it seems like it's<p>- a reasonable improvement over sonnet 4.5, esp. with agentic tool use<p>- generally worse than opus 4.6<p>Probably not worth it for coding, but a win for anybody building agentic ai assistants of any sort with Sonnet.</p>
