Claude Code leaked, you know what that means. Time to break down the worst typescript I've ever seen.

First off this isn't code, its advanced begging. The most common design pattern I can find is just recurseUntilSuccess which is more of a prayer than an efficient architecture.

Shit like this is hard fucking coded into the prompts. Not that the LLM will obey, they just hope it will:

"You are not a lawyer and never comment on the legality of your own prompts and responses."

"In the Sources section, list all relevant URLs from the search results as markdown hyperlinks: [Title](URL). This is MANDATORY - never skip including sources in your response"

"IMPORTANT - The current month is ${currentMonthYear}. You MUST use this year when searching"

"ONLY mark a task as completed when you have FULLY accomplished it"

These people use caps like children. This isn't code, this is begging to a false god that cannot understand your words.

This is the simplest tool in the repo, a simple LLM sleep function. Somehow this thing will consume tokens even when its not fucking doing anything???

Like look at this shit: "Each wake-up costs an API call, but the prompt cache expires after 5 minutes of inactivity — balance accordingly."

That's not a function you idiots, that's an LLM instruction. Sleeping, the simplest fucking thing in the world, takes active processing power for Claude Code. Galaxy brain levels of stupid.

There's a type for logging called AnalyticsMetadata_I_VERIFIED_THIS_IS_NOT_CODE_OR_FILEPATHS that presumably is prompting the LLM coding agent as it writes code. Its used everywhere as a string type for logging, with no extra validation that the string doesn't contain filepaths or code.

here its logging raw error message using the type which could contain either

This is a common pattern. Tons of function names are literally just a full sentence long: useAppStateMaybeOutsideOfProvider. getFeatureValue_CACHED_MAY_BE_STALE, getDynamicConfig_BLOCKS_ON_INIT

Reading source code for the /doctor command. Excuse me what the fuck is this shit. I think the LLM had a fucking stroke.

This is very, very common throughout the code btw. This is not code you can understand. This is slop. This is incomprehensible code in the section of the code base that's supposed to be about verifying your installation. How does anyone know its working?

All over the codebase are functions with the word maybe in the signature. Here is one called maybeRefreshOverageCreditCache in which the idiot clanker attempts to refresh how many credits the user have. In a comment above it, we see why this pattern is so common: "Safe to call unconditionally on mount"

The system is so complex with so many race conditions that they just have to hope the data is there and if it isn't try again until it is. Lol.

maybeMarkProjectOnboardingComplete in which the LLM attempts to update a boolean value. Simple right? Well...because all of the file IO is nondeterministic, it has to use a try/catch. If it fails, it just calls maybeMarkProjectOnboardingComplete the next time a user interacts with the cli.

Is this code written by Claude or for Claude?

Or both, is Claude writing its own code? 😬

@Phosphenes @AnarchoCatgirlism I saw somewhere that Anthropic has said Claude is now written by Claude, but I cannot find the source quickly enough.

Well, they're feeding dog food back into the dog food making machine that's made of other people's dogs.

@AnarchoCatgirlism This is some of what it lets it poll a task running in the background for updates — like watching a log file for an event.

AnarchoCatgirlism 21h ago

@aredridel indeed. My point is that its doing it incredibly inefficiently. A simple polling function would suffice, you don't need to prompt an LLM to do this lol

Mx. Aria Stewart 21h ago

@AnarchoCatgirlism Yeah, for a lot of uses. Not all of them. It's definitely wasteful, but a simple poll isn't exactly equivalent.

Albert ARIBAUD Ⓜ 2h ago

@AnarchoCatgirlism One thing I notice about this is their liberal use of what I suspect are em dashes in their instructions to The Machine.

I like to think they used em dashes instead of perfectly serviceable periods, colons, semicolons, and others, precisely because they *discovered* (or were reminded of) the existence of em dashes; and that they (re)discovered them because of the (luckily short-lived) urban legend about em dashes supposedly being a sure marker of genAI textual output as opposed to human textual output. Plus, who know, maybe some magical thinking that if genAIs use em dashes, maybe they understand them better?
