@steipete I think this is the missing piece for openai.. I just have to sit there and baby sit the shit out of it. So if it kept taking turns until it completed the task properly. It also seems to not want to think and answer to fast. Will this be out soon? :)

Not quite at dark factory levels, but that's a big step forward. Brainstormed with codex and it... just works (okay took 6h to build but damn. Way better than old-school e2e tests)

Working on a new QA process where we use openclaw to QA openclaw with a new synthetic message channel. Orchestrator agent understands project, defines tasks (e.g. ask agent to create cron) then verifies that agent did what that. If failure -> spin up subagent to analyze+fix.

@trq212 Can you please ensure that running on headless mode will not be effected? I can toss open claw in the trash. But all of my personal workflow has Claude code inside -p headless mode.

claim a month of free credits on us, thanks for bearing with us

@mckaywrigley Love to play with it

looking for a handful of people to test something new... i've been using it for a few months and am prepping to share. if you're a fan of claude cowork, openclaw, manus, perplexity computer, etc then you're a perfect fit. this will self destruct in 4hrs - please dm or reply.

I am over stripe. I do not even think they look at the dispute evidence. I’m over losing time and money. What is the alternatives? I wish b2b would pay in crypto.

@iannwu @hasantoxr I am sure you gotta put that channel on something faster llm wise. No way it is opus.

@hasantoxr Sub 200ms? Does it route to the actually claw brain? I tried vapi and 11labs and it’s 300-500ms at least.

Holy shit... your AI agent can now make real phone calls. It's called ClawdTalk and it gives any Clawdbot or OpenClaw agent an actual phone number. Not browser audio. Not a chatbot. Real calls over real telephony infrastructure. Sub-200ms latency. Here's why this changes everything: 🧵

@iancorzine @AlexFinn Terrible. Need better orchestration between agents. They all are specialized in their tasks. They are dependent on eachother for the overall project or goal. Opus 4.6 is insanely good at orchestration.

@AlexFinn unpopular opinion here: agent swarms find problems that don't exist to justify existence just the truth, am i right

I'm sick and tired of the people who don't understand why I spent $20,000 on this set up, and plan on spending another $100,000 by the end of the year IT DOES NOT MATTER THAT LOCAL MODELS AREN'T AS GOOD AS OPUS 4.6 That is not the point. The point is me being able to run a swarm of local AI agents powered by local AI models unlocks a world you can't imagine A world never discovered by humanity before Right now, as you read this post, I have multiple local AI models reading thousands of posts on X and Reddit Hunting for challenges to solve Those local AI models are feeding hundreds of challenges a day to a manager model The manager model (Henry) decides what the company (Alex Finn Global Enterprises) will build. The company is constantly working. Constantly researching. Constantly building. Constantly shipping If I did this with local models I'd be spending $20,000 a month on API calls. With my set up, it's free. I have an army on my desk. Never resting. Never eating. Never complaining. Always conquering. Here is your problem: it's not that you don't understand this. You don't want to understand this. You don't want to think this is possible. Your brain doesn't want to believe this is the world we now live in. It is. And the faster you can accept this and get on board, the faster you can enter the new society. Otherwise, you will forever be doomed to the permanent underclass. Make your choice.

@AlexFinn When coding, are you able to locally do the heavy building with Henry orchestrating them? I am doing similar.. but with opus and then sonnet. I can tell you, 20k investment in a few months would pay it off if it could replace the sonnet workers… just curious if it’s capable.

@johnrushx @jackfriks @naval Thanks for posting this. Never read that before.

@jackfriks the "how to get rich without getting lucky" by @naval ofc this one thread changed my entire business course

has reading a single tweet ever changed your life? which one?

How much MRR do you need with stripe to negotiate lower fees?

@mckaywrigley You have a loud voice.. go @ them until they respond! :)

Here are my Opus 4.5 thoughts after ~2 weeks of use. First some general thoughts, then some practical stuff. --- THE BIG PICTURE --- THE UNLOCK FOR AGENTS It's clear to anyone who's used Opus 4.5 that AI progress isn't slowing down. I'm surprised more people aren't treating this as a major moment. I suspect getting released right before Thanksgiving combined with everyone at NeurIPS this week has delayed discourse on it by 2 weeks. But this is the best model for both code and for agents, and it's not close. The analogy has been made that this is another 3.5 Sonnet moment, and I agree. But what does that mean? Every few generations we get a major model unlock - a moment that unlocks a new way of working. GPT-4 was the unlock for chat, Sonnet 3.5 was the unlock for code, and now Opus 4.5 is the unlock for agents. Thanks to Opus 4.5, agents can now work reliably on increasingly longer time horizons and get real-world work done on your behalf. Opus 4.5 is like a Waymo. You tell it "take me from A to B", and it takes you there. After a few of these experiences your brain realizes "oh. ok. we live in this world now". And then you're hooked. From that moment on, you'll never work the same way again. THE YEAR OF AGENTS 2025 has been touted as the year of agents, and Opus 4.5 + Claude Agent SDK is the pairing that makes that phrase true. The Claude Agent SDK is the best open secret in AI right now. An agent's harness matters almost as much as its model. If you have a bad harness, then you may as well have a bad model. With the SDK you get a world-class agentic harness out-of-the-box which you can now pair with Opus 4.5 to build real-world agents that actually work. I'm reminded of Alan Kay's quote "People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware". The agent version of this is "people who are serious about models should make their own harness". Anthropic clearly believes this, and it's working. The pairing of these tools is magic. I would describe myself as being "unhobblings-pilled", and the Claude Agent SDK + Opus 4.5 is the next major unhobbling. There's now another OOM of new latent economic value stuck in this combo, and it's the job of builders to get it out. If you were bearish on agents, now is the time to turn bullish. "ALL OF THIS IS REAL" "You know what's crazy? That all of this is real". This was Ilya's opening line about the state of AI in his Dwarkesh interview, and I echo that sentiment. I can't believe that Opus 4.5 is real. There have been several times as Opus 4.5's been working where I've quite literally leaned back in my chair and given an audible laugh over how wild it is that we live in a world where it exists and where agents are this good. Nat Friedman has this great question on his website: "Where do you get your dopamine?" Increasingly, I get mine from Claude. LONG ANTHROPIC I saw a post yesterday where someone said that Opus 4.5 was the most important thing to happen to them in their professional career. This will be true for more people going forward. Every year for the past 3 years, Anthropic has grown revenue by 10x. $1M to $100M in 2023, $100M to $1B in 2024, and $1B to $10B in 2025. In Dario's recent DealBook interview he expressed that he wasn't sure if that 10x pattern would hold for 2026. While he's probably right, I do expect Anthropic's revenue at the end of next year to be much higher than everyone expects. It wouldn't surprise me if they passed OpenAI in valuation by early 2027. Opus 4.5 is too good of a model, Claude Agent SDK is too good of a harness, and their focus on the enterprise is too obviously correct. Claude Opus 4.5 is a winner. And Anthropic will keep winning.

@mckaywrigley I am so sad with it. It was killing it with agents my skills. And now I have to baby sit the prompt and the context window.. I have no clue why it’s opening up an entire agents context window that is larger than it can fit.. and bugs outs.

I wish I had a million followers so @AnthropicAI would see this. Please fix this Windows bug 🙏 Life was so good until this update broke Claude Code for every Windows user with MCP plugins. github.com/anthropics/cla…

@lochan_twt is this a 6-7 joke

67% of full stack developers dont even know what a middleware is

This is the new kinda party.

@dumbiriyani5213 Hi

Twitter is cool. But it’s 10x better when you connect with people who code. If you’re into tech, AI, or programming, say hi

@mckaywrigley Glad your back! Your original OG templates is what got me thinking to move to use old school chat gpt for code.

Full version with links here: mckaywrigley.com/posts/opus-4.5 Good to be back. Break is over. Have a bunch queued up for the next 2 weeks. Feel the AGI.

@adityadotdev I just call my self a nerd

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE CALLED? A. DEVELOPER B. SOFTWARE DEVELOPER C. PROGRAMMER D. COMPUTER PROGRAMMER E. ENGINEER F. SOFTWARE ENGINEER G. CODER

@tobi @elonmusk @CathieDWood I wonder if he has played it. If for sure does exactly this.. lol

@elonmusk @CathieDWood You binged on Dyson Sphere Program last weekend, didn’t you

In collaboration with Mach33, ARKInvest open-sourced its #SpaceX model, the only open-source model in the market, if I am not mistaken, which should help put into perspective the massive opportunities, even before solar-powered data centers, in space.

Vibe coders and Fortune 500 engineers using the same tool to ship. Opus 4.5 is refactoring legacy code companies were afraid to touch for a decades. It’s not “vibe coding” anymore. It’s just coding. Opus 4.5 killed the distinction.

@nalinrajput23 I forgot about pycharm. I used to love that thing.

which code editor are you currently using ?
