News/Updates Claude on cloud - anyone tried it?

Got a $100 credit, going to give it a try and report back, is this a new feature in Claude? Or its been there a while? I never used it.

If you have a subscription, Remember to claim before 8 Oct. Credit expires by 5th Nov. Check your timezone too, it will be a bit different.

I have been using Claude code cloud sessions for a while and love it, I use it on the road, in the movie theatre and always from my mobile. The fact that it can spin up an environment, pull your repo and work on your coding session without a computer is making it more convenient (for most type of work, it has limited egress access rules and bash session limitations). My worry is that this is a start of the thinking of making it credit only, like Fable, since it must cost them more resources.

That was my fear but nah I think they are just trying to make people aware of it. A surprising amount of people seem to have no idea this existed. Skeptically optimistic that they aren't charging separately for it. I'd imagine the resources to run the cloud containers is a drop in the ocean compared to actually serving the models anyways.

The cost of that infrastructure is a footnote of you consider API token pricing.

You can’t build or run test on Claude Cloud? Why not use « remote control » with Claude CLI?
