- ▶ 6:51 Francois Chaubard And so this is kind of like the way that I, I was explaining to, you know, the lab about what I think is kind of happening right now, but like clawed kind of mother birds into,
- ▶ 30:44 unnamed speaker So you don't need to, you know, pay, pay Claude or pay OpenAI anymore for, for your LMs.
Alexandr Wang: “This is a Once-in-a-Civilization Opportunity” · Y Combinator
- ▶ 31:47 Alexandr Wang And, uh, and we're gonna keep making the models better, and, uh, right now, NewSpark is, I think, eight X cheaper than Opus, so, uh, so if you convert that to Opus dollars, uh, it's a lot more.
Boris Cherny: We Cut 80% of Claude Code’s Prompt · Y Combinator
- ▶ 0:08 Diana Hu All right, Boris, we're so excited to have you here, the creator of Plot Code.
- ▶ 3:32 Diana Hu You actually deleted over 80% of the system prompt from Cloud Code. 8 times in the scene
- ▶ 4:50 Boris Cherny If you do Cloud Code simple equals one, like this, uh, environment variable, and then you run Cloud, it'll delete all the system prompts, including from the tools. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 6:56 Boris Cherny Yeah, and, and for people that aren't building agentic products, but you're using Cloud Code, every six months, delete your Cloud MD. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 12:07 Boris Cherny One example of this was the original plot code. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 14:34 Diana Hu What are some areas and how should future founders here think about on hobbling Claude and fixing this product overhang?
- ▶ 14:59 Boris Cherny I think a really common mistake that I see is people are using quad code, they're using quad, and they, they just give it, like, way overly specific instructions. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 14:59 Boris Cherny I think a really common mistake that I see is people are using quad code, they're using quad, and they, they just give it, like, way overly specific instructions. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 20:13 Boris Cherny I, I think the skill nowadays is less about prompt engineering and more about figuring out how do you give Cloud a hard task that seems a little bit too hard? 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 20:36 Boris Cherny Um, one example of this is people were, uh, you know, we have this desktop app for Cloud. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 21:01 Boris Cherny And so what I did is I, I started a quad tag session, and quad tag is just, you know, it's a, it's a new product we have. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 23:05 Diana Hu And, um, I guess, what is separating the people here that can become the top one percent ClockCode users? 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 24:52 Boris Cherny I, I can ask Quad, and then I, I can get back to you. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 25:26 Boris Cherny To use dynamic workflows, it's a fairly new feature in Cloud Code, and all you have to say is use a workflow.
- ▶ 25:35 Boris Cherny And then Cloud will just trigger the dynamic workflow. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 30:46 Boris Cherny You know, there's still code bases that are like super deep systems code bases where quad still struggles. 3 times in the scene
Jensen Huang: The Mindset That Built NVIDIA · Y Combinator
- ▶ 25:23 Jensen Huang We have, you know, Boris is in the back, and, and we, we've got cloud code autonomously running in sandboxes all over NVIDIA, and that's really fantastic, and some people use codex, some people use cloud code, some people use cursor, some… 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 29:20 Jensen Huang Everybody should use ChatGPT and Claude and, right, everybody should use that.
Zynga Founder: Consumer Is Not Investible Right Now - Thats Why You Should Build It · Y Combinator
- ▶ 11:50 Mark Pincus You know, I, I made a, a GPT and a, a Claude skill to do, upload my book and do Proven Better New.
- ▶ 13:36 Garry Tan It sounds like they don't think about the new part enough, and then maybe these days they're over-relying on ChatGPT and Claude.
- ▶ 34:46 Mark Pincus Other than GPT and Claude, there isn't consumer apps that are grabbing my attention right now.
The Age Of The 40-Year-Old Solo Founder Is Here · Y Combinator
- ▶ 1:46 Bryant Chou Help you get found by chat GPT, help you get found by perplexity and Claude so that businesses can run their marketing on autopilot.
- ▶ 12:30 Bryant Chou They're probably going to open up cloud code or a cursor to try to do this, but they'll do a much worse version of it.
- ▶ 17:40 Jared Friedman And I was thinking about like how I would do it without ploy and like with enough effort, I could have maybe gotten like Claude code to do it, but like Claude code doesn't know how to connect to any of those things out of the box. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 29:30 Garry Tan So there is like a competitive dynamic to it, which has already happened for coding tools, for instance, like sort of unconscionable in, uh, 20, 26 to not be using cloud code or codex or cursor, you know, just. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 33:28 Bryant Chou Um, so then, you know, just wire it up to your CLAW and like, if CLAW needs to go and build a really awesome site, Ploy is one of the places where hopefully it can go. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 34:01 Diana Hu This is why I think going back to ClockCode versus Cursor ended up doing so well.
The Most AI-Pilled CEO We Know · Y Combinator
- ▶ 4:04 Pedro Franceschi To me, that was the, the, the, the tip of the spear where you could say, yes, like coding harnesses actually work and, you know, cloud code existed for probably a year before, uh, but it wasn't that, that valuable yet.
- ▶ 13:43 Garry Tan None of us opened clawed code. 5 times in the scene
- ▶ 14:06 Garry Tan And cloud can use cloud code.
- ▶ 38:14 Pedro Franceschi And I think, I think the point of like, why, you know, like I was yesterday until two AM playing with slash workflows and Opus 4.8 and all that is because I think I'll be doing the exact same thing if I wasn't making any money, because you…
Inside YC's AI Playbook · Y Combinator
- ▶ 4:20 Pete Koomen I think this right around when Claude code
- ▶ 7:26 Pete Koomen and I'm at home using Claude code or, or, or whatever, like OpenClaw or Hermes, and I can do anything right.
- ▶ 12:19 Pete Koomen The harnesses that have gotten really popular, right, uh, Claude Code, Codex, Pi, OpenClaw, Hermes, they're all, 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 16:02 Garry Tan And so, like, this thing keeps coming up in all these different contexts, like, Cloud Code has a skill. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 36:39 Garry Tan The last time I wrote code, it was like the web two point O version of this and cloud code lets you do that. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 43:35 Garry Tan Um, and you know, for what safety, like I would argue Claude is like a little bit more open, but not really perplexity.

- ▶ 1:49 unnamed speaker And just like talk about a few months ago, how you powered up Claude code and like started to get back to coding.
- ▶ 4:27 Garry Tan And then in this case, it took about 200 dollars, which was my Cloud Code Max account, and probably five days.
- ▶ 6:20 Garry Tan Five or 10 dollars of opus calls.
- ▶ 10:22 Garry Tan I typed in all the things that I found myself writing over and over again into cloud code.
- ▶ 10:34 Garry Tan Claude to make ASCII art diagrams. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 15:01 Garry Tan Uh, and then I'd click approve here and then, you know, Claude would go and do all the stuff. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 15:38 Garry Tan Claude in code MCP, and it was very, very slow. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 21:44 Garry Tan And then at some point using cloud code all day, we realized like, you know, why should we rewrite a version of that over and over again?
- ▶ 26:21 unnamed speaker And then you sort of, with clawed code, you sort of push through, and you realize that you don't need to do the copy and pasting anymore. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 26:54 Garry Tan I feel like this evolution, I was, like, completely clawed code-pilled 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 29:50 Garry Tan I had a tweet that was like, Claude Code this week has awakened my twenty-five-year-old self, the one that checked Red Bulls and stayed up till dawn coding, we're so back. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 33:47 unnamed speaker Like, it's exactly the same model and sort of like Opus 4.7 as Claude code, but it just like, like anything above like a simple script, I just find like, it's not like that great at, so 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 36:09 unnamed speaker It's coming down, but I think maybe people are just trying, like, Sonnet, or the free model, or having the basic Clot Pro subscription only.
Demis Hassabis: Agents, AGI & The Next Big Scientific Breakthrough · Y Combinator
- ▶ 39:51 Demis Hassabis So one thing I can think see happening is Gemini, Claude, or one of these general systems making use of alpha fold, like specialized systems as tools.
Replit's CEO On The Only Two Jobs Left In The Company Of The Future · Y Combinator
- ▶ 23:56 Amjad Masad Mid 2024, Claude came out and, um, uh, Claude's on it, and for the first time it could generate, like, a lot of code, as opposed to, like, GPT 3.5, which has that, that laziness component.
- ▶ 23:56 Amjad Masad Mid 2024, Claude came out and, um, uh, Claude's on it, and for the first time it could generate, like, a lot of code, as opposed to, like, GPT 3.5, which has that, that laziness component.
How to Make Claude Code Your AI Engineering Team · Y Combinator
- ▶ 1:22 Garry Tan I started playing with cloud code back in January after hearing people like Andrej Karpathy and Boris Czerny say they weren't manually writing any code anymore. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 8:57 Garry Tan The way to think about Claude code is that by default it uses Claude and I think Opus 4.6 is sort of ADHD CEO.
- ▶ 8:57 Garry Tan The way to think about Claude code is that by default it uses Claude and I think Opus 4.6 is sort of ADHD CEO.
- ▶ 12:52 Garry Tan And, um, it's just very interesting to see Opus 4.6 mirror that in trying to help you figure out what your startup or product idea might be.
- ▶ 16:13 Garry Tan We've got more than 70,000, uh, stars now, and some of the people who use it, like, they, they actually talk about how when they're using Cloud Code, they spend 80 to 90% of their time in office hours, plan, CEO review, and auto plan. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 19:38 Garry Tan I run 10 to 15 parallel Claude code sessions all at the same time.

- ▶ 46:40 Garry Tan What if we just have markdown files and agents and, you know, you could make it yourself with, you know, literally Claude code and MCP today.
- ▶ 47:12 Quan Vuong So, uh, to, to, to give you an example, um, we have a, uh, Claude skill that essentially serving the role of a pre-training on call today.
AI Is Unlocking Millions Of New Builders · Y Combinator
- ▶ 4:01 Madhav Jha So we were like cloud code before cloud code was a thing. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 6:28 Mukund Jha For example, like Opus is a different class of model right now.
- ▶ 32:44 unnamed speaker If one of those companies decides like, you know, Claude code for non-technical users is a really valuable application to build.
- ▶ 33:16 Mukund Jha Like, for example, you know, um, Opus is obviously a workhorse, um, you know, like, um, Codex is really good in back-end debugging.
The Powerful Alternative To Fine-Tuning · Y Combinator
- ▶ 8:09 unnamed speaker They treat the underlying model as a common layer that you can switch in between, and there's a certain task, for example, for GPT-DF, 5.2, like very hard to verify bugs gets sent to that, versus architecture that gets sent to CLOT 4.6,…
The AI Agent Economy Is Here · Y Combinator
- ▶ 0:06 Garry Tan For one thing, Clawed Code has totally taken over my life, and if Jared has any indication, I think Open Claw maybe has taken over his.
- ▶ 1:10 Garry Tan Running four conductor simultaneous workers with Claude Code. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 2:26 Harj Taggar And now clearly what's going on with Cloud Code is like the people just trust the agents to make decisions for them.
- ▶ 6:00 Garry Tan And you know, that's sort of what cloud code chose for me off the bat, but you know, it chose whisper V one, which is a model from several years ago. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 7:30 unnamed speaker When you ask a question on ChatGPT or Claude or pretty much all of the major, ah, LLMs, you ask, how do I connect my web app to send emails?
- ▶ 8:25 Garry Tan I was trying to make my thing be able to receive emails and then, um, Cloud Code, I told it to search the web and it didn't figure it out.
- ▶ 14:14 Garry Tan We started talking about this because I was, like, maybe a week into my cyberpsychosis, and it, like, dawned on me that, like, actually I want my cloud code to talk to all the other cloud codes that had been trying to implement that.
- ▶ 18:13 Garry Tan And nobody wanted to do it because like the bar for chat, especially for AI is so high that anything that is not like, you know, Gemini or ChatGPT or Claude, people just assume it's just too stupid.
- ▶ 22:31 Harj Taggar Like, I feel when Tom Brown was on here, like, much earlier, but he was talking about sort of Claude in a very, like,
Inside Claude Code With Its Creator Boris Cherny · Y Combinator
- ▶ 0:15 Boris Cherny All of quad code has just been written and rewritten and rewritten and rewritten over and over and over. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 0:47 unnamed speaker Welcome to another episode of The Light Cone, and today we have an extremely special guest, Boris Czerny, the creator, engineer of Claude Code. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 1:19 Boris Cherny I remember for me, I felt this way when I first created Cloud Code, and I didn't yet know if I was onto something, I kind of felt like I was onto something, and then that's when I wasn't sleeping. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 3:18 Boris Cherny It was QuadCode, MCP, and the desktop app.
- ▶ 3:18 Boris Cherny It was QuadCode, MCP, and the desktop app.
- ▶ 6:26 Boris Cherny And then I came in the next day and then Robert, who sits across from me, he's another engineer, he just like had quad code on his computer 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 7:24 Boris Cherny I think at this point I've probably forgotten most of my Git because Cloud Code has just been doing it for so long.
- ▶ 9:44 Boris Cherny And I'll just literally tag Claude on the PR. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 11:09 Boris Cherny But I think also this is one of the things that makes it possible for quad, 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 14:51 Boris Cherny And so sometimes there's a new person that joins the team and they actually use QuadCode more 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 17:33 unnamed speaker Do you think, um, you would ever hire someone based on the, uh, Claude code transcript of, uh, them working with the agent? 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 19:47 Boris Cherny And the reason that I wanted her to transfer is she put up a PR for Cloud Code, like a couple of weeks after she joined or something. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 20:18 Boris Cherny You know, like we use the Quad Agent SDK to automate pretty much every part of development.
- ▶ 21:01 unnamed speaker And then they're sitting in cloud code and they can do like.
- ▶ 23:02 Boris Cherny Yeah, an engineer on the team just gave, uh, gave Quad a spec and, um, told Quad to use a Asana board. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 23:37 Boris Cherny Cause like a subagent is just like a recursive quad code.
- ▶ 23:48 unnamed speaker My Claude insights just told me to do this more for debugging so that I get like, I spent a lot of time on debugging and it would just be better to have like multiple sub agents spin up and like debug something in parallel.
- ▶ 24:54 Boris Cherny You can just prompt Claude.
- ▶ 25:19 Boris Cherny Yeah, we've, uh, we've started experimenting with this because quad code can now enter plan mode by itself. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 25:59 Boris Cherny I mean, that's all it was like plan mode was we saw users that were like, Hey, Claude, come up with an idea, plan this out, but don't write any code yet. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 26:55 Boris Cherny So you get Claude to make a plan, let's say even with plan mode, you still have to kind of sit there and babysit because it can go off track. 9 times in the scene
