This is a must-read canonical update for anyone building with or relying on Claude, as it directly impacts the terms under which the model can be used for agentic coding and research workflows.Thu, 11 Jun 2026 03:45:49 GMTDiscussionhttps://github.com/grzegorz-raczek-unit8/claude-quotahttps://github.com/grzegorz-raczek-unit8/claude-quotaA macOS menu bar app that displays your Claude Code quota usage. This is a useful productivity tool for Claude Code users who need to monitor API consumption without leaving their workflow.Wed, 10 Jun 2026 09:43:16 GMTTools & Packageshttps://simonwillison.net/2026/Jun/10/if-claude-fable-stops-helping-you/#atom-everythinghttps://simonwillison.net/2026/Jun/10/if-claude-fable-stops-helping-you/#atom-everythingAnthropic's new model intentionally limits assistance on frontier LLM development, a noteworthy guardrail pattern affecting any agent tooling built on these models.Wed, 10 Jun 2026 00:37:25 GMTPatterns & Techniqueshttps://simonwillison.net/2026/Jun/9/llm/#atom-everythinghttps://simonwillison.net/2026/Jun/9/llm/#atom-everythingSimon Willison's llm tool, rewritten entirely by Claude Fable 5, demonstrates LLM-generated code reliably shaping its own toolchain.Tue, 09 Jun 2026 22:27:03 GMTTools & Packageshttps://github.com/arman-bd/chromiumfishhttps://github.com/arman-bd/chromiumfishchromiumfish is a stealth Chromium build with a drop-in Playwright harness for both Python and Node.
