Sprites.dev by @fly.io is a very cool new thing: it solves two of my pet problems at once, developer sandbox environments for coding agents and a JSON API for executing untrusted code

Ralph: a Claude Code plugin that uses stop hooks to keep Claude chugging. if it tries to stop, ralph feeds the same prompt and it keeps going

apparently Anthropic employees keep Claude going for hours and even days like this

👀 Some words about Chatto, my BIG project. It's a group chat app that

- is incredibly easy to self-host
- has very modest hardware requirements
- scales really well
- apache-2.0 license
- hosted platform launching in 2026

Looking forward to writing much more about this soon.

Let's do this. 🚀
Introducing Chatto
I'm building an Open Source group chat application that's simple to self-host, familiar to use, and easy to customize.

Remember Rails Rumble? 48 hours, team of 3-5, building an app from zero to production.

Today, a single dev with Claude Code could easily compete.

Just used Beans for Claude Code for a smallish refactoring - and I quite like it. Simple, markdown files, nice TUI to see what's going on and potentially even edit stuff. Claude Code and the TUI on split screen.

It's so much fun to leave `beans tui` running in a separate window. It'll automatically pick up changes in the filesystem and update itself accordingly.
