I wonder if most "Susan in Accounting" even know what Claude is. They then have to know to get Claude desktop, get the max plan in order to get Cowork. Most people live on the cloud, so they'll need to get the Claude browser plugin as well to integrate with Cowork.

I'm curious to see if Anthropic can actually win over these non-technical folks as there's still quite a few hurdles for them to get over.

You should see the way Claude Code generates documentation. It's pretty good.

But why not have the developer that wrote the code guide the AI to generate the content? They know the code best.

Actually at this rate, developers won't be writing code anyways but they're still in a better position to guide the AI.

I guess devs won't have to worry, they're already paying for Claude Max subscriptions.

I tried it out and it couldn't help me unsubscribe from spam/newsletter as it couldn't click the unsubscribe button.

I used to burn hours doomscrolling on my phone. Instagram, X, games – always felt like wasted time.

When AI coding agents took off, I realized I could redirect that habit into something productive. So I built Kibbler.

It's a mobile app that connects to Claude Code running on your dev machine. You can prompt from your phone, see streaming responses, preview file changes, and approve/reject edits before they're applied.

Currently it's limited. Only supported for iPhones and those using Jetbrain plugins. If this develops any traction, I'll consider expanding the support.

Tech: iOS app → Go proxy server → Claude CLI subprocess. Uses mTLS for auth and SSE for streaming.

Some challenges I ran into:

  - Race conditions everywhere. Streaming responses + approval workflows + multiple sessions meant race conditions kept popping up. I had other issues with context getting lost after approvals, messages routing to wrong sessions, UI state getting out of sync etc.
Did a lot of dogfooding. I actually used Kibbler to build Kibbler, which helped uncover issues I never would've caught otherwise. Fun project overall.
