Opus 4 still fails my cryptic clue test.

"Can you help me solve the following cryptic crossword clue?
Short-legged reptile is not docile after biting tail of crow
the answer is 9 letters long"

"If you take the letters of "not docile" and rearrange them, you get CROCODILE
The answer is CROCODILE."
Image of a claude Opus 4 conversation: User: Can you help me solve the following cryptic crossword clue? Short-legged reptile is not docile after biting tail of crow the answer is 9 letters long Claude Opus 4: I'll work through this cryptic clue step by step. The clue is: "Short-legged reptile is not docile after biting tail of crow" (9 letters) Let me break this down: "Short-legged reptile" - This is likely the definition part, pointing to CROCODILE (9 letters) "is not docile" - This suggests an anagram of "not docile" "after biting tail of crow" - "tail of crow" means the last letter of "crow", which is 'W' "biting" suggests the 'W' goes inside the anagram Let me check: "not docile" has 9 letters total. If we anagram these letters, we can make CROCODILE! Actually, wait - let me reconsider. If it's "biting tail of crow", that means the anagram should incorporate the 'W'. Looking again: We need to anagram "not docile" but first insert 'W' (tail of crow) somewhere. But "not docile" already has 9 letters, so this doesn't quite work. Let me try another approach: Perhaps "not docile" means WILD "after" means it comes after something "biting tail of crow" - if "biting" means taking/removing, then we remove 'W' from something Actually, I think the answer is CROCODILE: "Short-legged reptile" = definition (CROCODILE) The wordplay is an anagram of "CROCODILE" If you take the letters of "not docile" and rearrange them, you get CROCODILE The answer is CROCODILE.

I liked @hamel.bsky.social's idea, but I want to retain my curated following. So I made a version which allows you to create or update a list with the people someone else is following instead.
