I put the entire Claude Code GTM Engineering Playbook into ONE Notion doc. 8 sections. No fluff. - How to get set up correctly from day one: Pro plan, terminal install across Mac, Linux, and Windows, GUI install via Antigravity or VS Code, and bypass permissions mode - What to put in your project brain file, what to leave out, and how to get Claude to update it automatically when it keeps making the same mistake - How to run plan mode step by step and when to skip it for simple tasks - How to build a skill file from scratch, fix one that keeps failing, and install 5 GTM skills worth building first: lead scraping, email labeling, proposal generation, outbound sequence writing, and client onboarding - MCP install process, token cost checks after every install, the best MCPs for GTM work, and how to cut token usage by 50 to 100x by converting MCPs into skills - Sub-agents and agent teams: the 3 cases where they earn their cost, reliability math for parallel runs, and how to enable parallel variant exploration - What is eating your context before you type anything, how to use /compact and /clear correctly, and model selection for parent vs sub-agents - Modal deployment: any skill as a live URL in under 2 minutes, form interface setup, and connection to n8n, Make, or Zapier This is the setup I would have KILLED for before spending months piecing together how to actually get productive in Claude Code from documentation, YouTube tutorials, and scattered GitHub threads. Like + comment "CODE" and I'll send it over (must be connected for priority access)

x402 foundation officially formed yesterday under linux foundation. founding members: visa, mastercard, stripe, coinbase, circle, google, microsoft, amazon, shopify, cloudflare. average transaction value jumped from $1.60 to $34.50 in 30 days. 100m+ lifetime transactions. 99.9% market share of agentic payment rails. every major payment company on earth just organized around a single protocol for how AI agents move money. base captures 75% of x402 volume and is exploring a network token. the airdrop farmers are about to discover that building x402 integrations on base might be the most rational thing they've ever done

I wanted to share a bunch of my favorite hidden and under-utilized features in Claude Code. I'll focus on the ones I use the most. Here goes.

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept): Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

🚨 Someone just open sourced a fully autonomous AI hacker and it's terrifying. It's called Shannon. Point it at your web app, and it doesn't just scan for vulnerabilities. It actually exploits them. Real injections. Real auth bypasses. Real database exfiltrations. Not alerts. Not warnings. Actual working exploits with copy-paste proof-of-concepts. Here's what this thing does autonomously: → Reads your entire source code to plan its attack → Maps every endpoint, API route, and auth mechanism → Runs Nmap, Subfinder, and WhatWeb for deep recon → Hunts for Injection, XSS, SSRF, and broken auth in parallel → Launches real browser-based exploits to prove each vulnerability → Generates a pentester-grade report with reproducible PoCs Here's the wildest part: It follows a strict "No Exploit, No Report" policy. If it can't actually break it, it doesn't report it. Zero false positives. It pointed at OWASP Juice Shop and found 20+ critical vulnerabilities in a single run including complete auth bypass and full database exfiltration. On the XBOW Benchmark (hint-free, source-aware), it scored 96.15%. Your team ships code daily with Claude Code and Cursor. Your pentest happens once a year. That's 364 days of shipping blind. Shannon closes that gap. One command. Fully autonomous. The Red Team to your vibe-coding Blue team. Every Claude coder deserves their Shannon. 10.6K GitHub stars. 1.3K forks.

🚨 Someone just solved the biggest bottleneck in AI agents. And it's a 12MB binary. It's called Pinchtab. It gives any AI agent full browser control through a plain HTTP API. Not locked to a framework. Not tied to an SDK. Any agent, any language, even curl. No config. No setup. No dependencies. Just a single Go binary. Here's why every existing solution is broken: → OpenClaw's browser? Only works inside OpenClaw → Playwright MCP? Framework-locked → Browser Use? Coupled to its own stack Pinchtab is a standalone HTTP server. Your agent sends HTTP requests. That's it. Here's what this thing does: → Launches and manages its own Chrome instances → Exposes an accessibility-first DOM tree with stable element refs → Click, type, scroll, navigate. All via simple HTTP calls → Built-in stealth mode that bypasses bot detection on major sites → Persistent sessions. Log in once, stays logged in across restarts → Multi-instance orchestration with a real-time dashboard → Works headless or headed (human does 2FA, agent takes over) Here's the wildest part: A full page snapshot costs ~800 tokens with Pinchtab's /text endpoint. The same page via screenshots? ~10,000 tokens. That's 13x cheaper. On a 50-page monitoring task, you're paying $0.01 instead of $0.30. It even has smart diff mode. Only returns what changed since the last snapshot. Your agent stops re-reading the entire page every single call. 1.6K GitHub stars. 478 commits. 15 releases. Actively maintained. 100% Open Source.

Introducing cmux: the open-source terminal built for coding agents. - Vertical tabs - Blue rings around panes that need attention - Built-in browser - Based on Ghostty When Claude Code needs you, the pane glows blue and the sidebar tells you why. No Electron/Tauri. Just Swift/Appkit.

Code Mode is all you need, very excited about this direction for MCP blog.cloudflare.com/code-mode-mcp/

NVIDIA just dropped PersonaPlex-7B 🤯 A full-duplex voice model that listens and talks at the same time. No pauses. No turn-taking. Real conversation. 100% open source. Free. Voice AI just leveled up. huggingface.co/nvidia/persona…

After the buzz about @openclaw, I did something mean: I cut out the heart of the 🦞 and rewrote it using @vercel's AI SDK. The result: a coding agent that implements the Vercel AI Agent interface. Think @claudeai Agent SDK — without the lock-in. github.com/marcusschiesse…

I love this mihaileric.com/The-Emperor-Ha… It's amazing what you can build with a few lines of code.

Customer enrichment agent: 3 Gemini Flash calls, parallel tool execution, Google Search grounding. ~$0.01 per customer. Stupid cheap.

Today we cracked 32 bit RSA encryption 20x faster using emergent AI. We use an ant colony that deposits pheromones as a model for our intelligence and @claudeai

@aigleeson This is how you needed to prompt GPT3

OPENAI ENGINEERS USE A PROMPT TECHNIQUE YOU’VE PROBABLY NEVER HEARD OF It’s called reverse prompting and it’s the fastest way I’ve seen to turn average AI output into elite-tier results. Here’s the exact system you can steal 👇

First Google, then Microsoft, and now AWS! It seems like every week one of the tech giants is integrating with the same protocol. If you haven’t been following - I’m talking about AG-UI AG-UI (the Agent-User Interaction protocol) connects any agentic backend to the frontend. It is a general-purpose, bi-directional connection between a user-facing application and any agentic backend. AG-UI has first party integrations & partnerships with Google’s ADK, Microsoft’s Agent Framework, AWS Strands, LangGraph, CrewAI, PydanticAI, Mastra, LlamaIndex, and more. And CopilotKit, the company behind AG-UI, provides developers with powerful building blocks on top of the protocol, which handle all the mess of connecting your agent to the frontend. I’ve shared about this in the past, but I’ve been keeping my eye on it. Recently, CopilotKit and AG-UI collectively passed 200,000 weekly downloads and 35k stars on GitHub, and momentum is only accelerating. It makes sense why every agent framework is integrating with AG-UI. Out-of-the-box, you instantly get: 1./ Real-time shared state between your frontend and agent 2./ UI components that stream reasoning + tool calls (pre-built or fully headless) 3./ Native A2A + MCP support 4./ A full framework to build "Cursor for X" apps AND NOW: 5./ A set of new internal primitives built specifically around AG-UI 6./ A new useAgent() React hook that lets you connect any AG-UI agent to your frontend with a single line This is quickly becoming the connective tissue of the agentic stack. And with the upcoming CopilotKit v1.50 release, the entire developer experience gets drastically cleaner and more powerful. If you want to build more than just an agent, but a real full stack agentic application, the AG-UI ecosystem is the place to go.
