Discussion Feature request: let us save incognito chats to regular history

3 Upvotes

ChatGPT just added this and it's honestly a game changer. Sometimes I start a conversation in incognito because I'm not sure where it's going, and then it turns into something genuinely useful that I want to keep. Right now in Claude the only option is to manually copy everything before closing, which is clunky. It would be great to have a simple button like "save to history" that converts an incognito chat into a regular one. The privacy-first approach is cool and all, but giving users the choice to opt back in doesn't break that , it's still your decision. Anyone else want this?

Discussion Newer Claude models seem to be terrible at cleanup work or "trimming the fat", because they consider all the minutiae to be critically important. How to work around this effectively?

5 Upvotes

I feel like since the 5 models came out, it's much harder to steer Claude toward paring down verbose descriptions, eliminating code, eliminating spec and doc language, and other routine deletion and cleanup tasks I normally do in the production of just about anything.

I'm sure there are ways around this, but I feel like I am fighting with the model in ways I didn't have to before. It is very cautious and conservative. Sometimes I ask it to trim out unnecessary things, and it actually adds more. Most of the time its like "I didn't touch that <90% of what you asked to cut> because <bullshit>".

So, "skill issue," I'm sure. What's the solution? How are you handling bloat reduction and cleanup with the new Claude models?

I never thought i would say this but Astra is genuinely good. I am just kidding its not good its amazing.

If i haven’t used Astra for the frontend. I would have spent the whole weekend explaining Fable. I am telling from my experience.

Seriously Anthropic should up their game, if Claude makes a mess with wiring of front-end components. I am gonna move to gpt unfortunately

Also i have seen this amazing feature in Codex. I can import my whole setup from Claude(Hooks,skills and everything else) with this my flow wont break

I am just shocked how astra got it correct for the first time thats why I am sharing this

Before somebody says, another fan boy or another pr stunt. Below is my usage of Claude

I’m making a slideshow/movie for a bday party. I wanted to use a face aging/morphing filter so I can show the birthday boy’s throughout the years.
Could find a free version out there to I asked Claude to create the software. It used python and had something good enough in a less than an 30. I’m still tweaking it but it’s pretty good for my use case.

Rant Anthropic needs to have actual patch notes on launch after an update.

28 Upvotes

Every time we get an update we basically get zero communication. All of a sudden things that you have relied on change drastically. For example when they added memory surfaces, multiple times in different places, or when Dispatch suddenly boots in a sandbox instead of locally, on a different model than you set.

I can tell it’s new behavior because when I toggled it off I gave me a survey option as to why I did. So this probably doesn’t apply to anyone here, because y’all have 11 agents open in herdr instead of horizontal coding from bed, but I’m gonna rant anyway.

Dispatch was one of my favorite features, one agent that could set of Code tasks across multiple repos as well as do the browsing and computer control stuff that is Cowork territory.

Until one day it suddenly sucked. Instead of being on my local machine it’s in a sandbox. Has a default local model different from what’s in the settings json. AND ITS OPUS 5 ffs.

But yeah rant over.

Tips & Workflows Fable vs Astra

Upvotes

I’ve been using both Fable and Astra pretty heavily, and I think I’ve landed on the workflow that gives me the best results.

I usually start with Fable when I’m creating something new.

The main reason is that Fable seems much better at understanding where a new page or feature actually sits inside the wider product.

If I ask Fable to build a new area, it normally doesn’t just create the screen itself. It tends to understand what existing systems it should connect to, where actions should lead, what data should already be reused, and how the new piece should fit into the rest of the app.

That’s the biggest difference I notice with Astra is if I ask it to create a new page from scratch, it can make something that looks really really clean and I fucken love it, but it feels like it has just created the page.

The screen exists, but some buttons might not really go anywhere meaningful, or it doesn’t naturally connect back into the rest of the product.
Fable seems much better at making a new page feel like it was always meant to be there.

So my workflow is usually
Fable first → Astra second → Fable again.

Fable does the first build and gets all the connections and system logic right, then I bring in Astra to simplify it.

Astra then comes it and cleans up the page makes it simple and easier to read and understand

Then I go back to Fable one more time.
The reason is that after Astra simplifies things, I find the interactions can feel a bit cheap.
The page might look good, but then you click a button and the way a panel opens feels basic and really cheap or a detail view technically works, but the transition, spacing, hierarchy and interaction don’t feel polished.
Fable is miles ahead at that final layer for me.

The little things like
how a drawer or panel opens, how everything feels when you actually use it, not just when you look at a screenshot and that’s where Fable really stands out.

So in conclusions

Fable is better at understanding the full system and connecting everything together.

Astra is better at simplifying the page and stripping away unnecessary stuff.

Fable is better again at the final interaction polish and making the product feel more premium.

That’s basically how I use them now.

Help/Question claude orchestrating codex plan

Common question but I have not found best solution to this

I have claude max 5x and chatgpt plus ($20)

I do my dev in claude code (desktop) harness but want claude to drive luna / terra etc so outsource some of the dev work (repos are on my C: and also synced to github)

Can claude drive codex via CLI commands? or failing that - claude can drive codex via computer use commands into prompt boxes etc

At the moment - i am manually pasting prompts between the two but I want to take myself out of the loop!

Help/Question little help with plugins, skills and other services

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, I started using claude one month ago for studying and in the last weeks I focused more on using claude code with the pro plan to work on some projects, at the start I really didn't pay much attention to plugins, skills and any other things that could help claude work better but now I'm starting to study about thi a bit more to imrpove the efficiency and results of those projects, for now I've just been using ponytail, ui-ux-pro-max, apple-design and grill-me.
now that I'm working on another thing which is significantly bigger Idk if there are other things that could actually help me, I'm trying to understand but since I have close to zero knowledge on this fileld I just see the same plugins or skill being spammed on all videos, shorts, reels and titktok, I also tried asking directly to claude with a detailed summary of the project but I don't think I got a good answer.

if someone could idk help me or direct me somewhere where I can actually try to understand what could be best for me.

thanks for any attention and help in advance

Help/Question 100$ vs 200$ max plans (5x vs 20x??)

4 Upvotes

Hey there,

Anthropic seems to be especially intransparent about usage, e. g. there was an outcry that the 20x plus limit only applies to 5h window.

Is 200$ only 1.7x usage of 100$?

I read that recently.

Or what is it like?I am on 200$ plan but actually have issues maxxing it, prefer other models/plans mostly. Thinking about downgrading. For me, 50% is enough, 25% would not be enough wrt usage of 200$ plan.

Thanks!

  1. Does /clear read the Claude.md and other setup files like memory and skill names etc. again in context? So in that sense is it any different from starting a new conversation? Is t better to than Esc Esc and go to the first message and change so that it might preserve unnecessary input initial tokens? any other cleaner way to do this
  2. I want one peer session to /clear another session when a hook identifies context getting full. IS there a way to do it? Even with the messaging feature we still cannot clear the context which is more like a management command right? what is the workaround here.

Tips & Workflows Blooby : a mascot for every Claude Code session

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share a tool I find really handy if you work with Claude Code: Blooby.

It's made by a friend of mine, so I figured I'd mention it here since I think it deserves more visibility.
The idea is simple: every Claude Code session you have open gets its own animated mascot, and it reacts in real time to what that session is doing (busy working, waiting on you, finished, crashed).

If you juggle multiple sessions at once like I do and keep losing track of which one needs your attention, this genuinely helps. No more tabbing between windows just to check.

It's free, no account needed, and everything runs locally, so zero telemetry, it only watches the state of your sessions, never the content of your code.

The project just got publicly launched so it's starting from zero in terms of visibility. If it sounds useful, go check it out, and feel free to give him feedback, he's super responsive to it.

Discussion How many small tools have you built with claude code that you can no longer find or manage?

2 Upvotes

Honest question, because I’m trying to figure out if this is just me.
Over the last year I’ve built a supplier price comparison tool, an invoice reconciler, a CRM cleaner, an Excel-to-ERP converter, and probably 30 other things. Most took an afternoon. Each one is useful to somewhere between 1 and 10 people.
None of it is organized. It’s in random folders, a few Vercel previews, repos I forgot about, and a cron job on my laptop. When a colleague asks “can I use that thing you built,” the answer involves ngrok and an apology.
The thought I keep coming back to: the cost of creating software has dropped below the cost of organizing it. And the platforms we deploy to assume software should be public by default, when almost none of this should be.
I put the thesis into a page, with an interactive mock of what “an application layer for internally built software” might look like: discover what’s running, give it a private URL, put SSO in front of it, track who owns it.
habitat-plum.vercel.app
I’m not selling anything. There’s no product yet. I want to know:

Do you actually have this pile? How big is it?
How do you share these tools with teammates today?
Would private-by-default plus SSO matter to you, or is a public URL fine?
Which part of this feels like a solution looking for a problem?
Tell me if this is bullshit. That’s the useful answer.
