Claude's new Cursor killer just dropped
AI Summary
The video provides a scathing review of Anthropic's new Claude Code desktop app, which the presenter, Theo, describes as a "total disaster" and "unfathomable slop." Theo criticizes the app for numerous bugs, poor user experience, and a lack of basic functionality that he believes should be standard. He highlights issues such as incorrect text formatting when copying from the CLI, images being sent as separate messages, UI elements resizing improperly, and hotkeys not working as expected or being poorly assigned. Theo contrasts Claude Code with the Codex app, which he finds more reliable, and frequently promotes his own open-source project, T3 Code, as a significantly superior alternative that was built by two people in a fraction of the time. He argues that Anthropic, a multi-billion dollar company, is failing both at building a good app and at enabling community development, suggesting their motivation is to lock users into their ecosystem rather than showcase their models effectively. Despite its flaws, Theo predicts the Claude Code app will gain popularity due to its easy sign-in process, even though it requires more clicks for actual work.
