Five plugins that extend Claude Code with specialized external tools: Gemini for visual analysis, Codex for architecture thinking, Headless for browser automation, Mobile for native app testing, and DNS for multi-provider management.
Read more →Steve Yegge and Gene Kim explain why Claude Code 'ain't it' yet, why senior engineers are resisting, and what next year's tools will actually look like.
Read more →Claude Code 2.0.64 adds .claude/rules/ with path matching. It's a welcome addition, but Cursor's had .cursor/rules/ for months. Here's the comparison.
Read more →Anthropic denied issues for weeks, then published a postmortem admitting three bugs degraded 16% of Claude requests. The pattern keeps repeating.
Read more →BMAD, Spec-Kit, Cline - frameworks that compensated for tool limitations. Plan Mode, Cursor 2.0, and Antigravity absorb the patterns natively.
Read more →Anthropic's first acquisition ever. A $183B AI company just bet their fastest-growing product on a JavaScript runtime. Claude Code hit $1B in 6 months - built on Bun.
Read more →Opus 4.5 shipped Plan Mode as a core workflow. The workarounds are obsolete. And the case for auto-compact finally tips in favor of enabling it.
Read more →The official Claude Code plugin that lets agents work autonomously for hours. When to use it, when not to, and the philosophy behind letting AI fail repeatedly until it succeeds.
Read more →How Anthropic's new plugin system and frontend-design skill help Claude Code generate distinctive UI instead of generic AI output.
Read more →Design systems from mockup to code in a single Claude Code session. Use Gemini 3 Pro to generate UI concepts, then implement them directly.
Read more →Claude's new model ships with defer_loading for tools. The MCP isolation patterns I built are now (mostly) obsolete.
Read more →My AI workflow evolved from 'Claude does everything' to specialized tools for each task. React Grab fills the UI extraction gap I didn't know I had.
Read more →Claude Code for development, Gemini 3 Pro for visual analysis, research, and deep thinking. A slash command that routes tasks to the right model.
Read more →Hooks-based skill activation solves context selection (which guidelines? which tools?) but not workflow orchestration. Both patterns have their place.
Read more →From Chrome DevTools experiment to universal MCP wrapper: progressive discovery works with any server, Skills integration, and smart deduplication
Read more →Skills are auto-invoked by Claude's judgment. For engineering workflows that need predictability, slash commands give you explicit control.
Read more →Claude Code loves to jump straight into implementation. Sometimes you need a model that thinks first. Here's how I use Codex for systems thinking and architecture decisions.
Read more →How to use slash commands to keep specialized MCP tools isolated from your main conversation context.
Read more →Building a multiplayer trivia app solo with AI coding tools. Here's what worked, what didn't, and the trade-offs no one talks about.
Read more →MCPs, subagents, and automation are tempting. But the developers getting the most from Claude Code aren't rushing to advanced features - they're mastering the fundamentals.
