🧵 Making Proactive Agents with Code Generation

Last week we shared about how you can use code generation to compose tools.

But code generation can also give your agents new capabilities- like proactively acting on your behalf. In this case, I want to make an email agent that processes my emails.

Running an agent on every email I receive would be slow & unpredictable, so instead I'm allowing the user to generate callbacks that are called when I get an email.

Here's an example generated function: Image

Claude Code Weekly Round Up

This week we made subagents resumable, added a Plan subagent, introduced prompt based stop hooks, fixed several high priority bugs & much more across the CLI, web and SDK.

We're also replacing output styles with with more powerful alternatives:Image Next week, we're replacing output styles in Claude Code.

We found in practice that less than 1% of users actively used output styles, and they can be recreated through other extension points via plugins.

Why even non-coding agents need bash

I've done dozens of calls with companies making general agents over the past few weeks and my advice generally boils down to: "use the bash tool more"

Here's a concrete example from my email agent:Image The user asks: "How much did I spend on ride sharing this week?"

With tool calls, you have to fetch emails and then have the model figure it out from there. You might have fetched ~100 emails and it will be hard for the model to find this data.

Your Agent should use a File System

This is a hill I will die on. Every agent can use a file system.

The file system is an elegant way of representing state that your agent could read into context & allowing it to verify its work.

🧵on why and examplesImage Claude Code was what proved this to me.

Before CC, people though context windows would get long enough that you could just fit a codebase into context.

But that is not how programming works. You don't need to remember everything, you just need to know how to find it.

Making an Email Agent using the Claude Code SDK

If I wasn’t at Anthropic, I would be making agents using the Claude Code SDK.

But doing > talking. So I’m building in public and open sourcing a local email agent.

This is part one on agentic search. First, why the Claude Code SDK?

Whenever I’ve built an agent in the past I ended up hand rolling the same patterns that are now just way easier to use the Claude Code SDK.

In this example I’m using it for subagents, context management, the file system & code generation.

It's maddening that we're creating real time AI game engines, but there aren't any actual AI games.

🧵 here's my take as an ex-gaming founder on why People don't want generative slop.

The edge that games have over other media is achievement.

As Tiktok increasingly offers the best ratio of effort to dopamine, games need to lean into achievement and mastery.

In an infinitely generated world, where do you find the mastery?

Use Claude Code as your Video Editor

Believe it or not, every video you see below was vibe coded by Claude Code.

🧵 here’s how you can do it too:


 The UI videos are all powered by Remotion ()- a library for creating videos using React.

And Claude Code is great at writing code for Remotion! remotion.dev

Claude Code is All You Need

When I first joined Anthropic I was surprised to learn that lots of the team used Claude Code as a general agent, not just for code.

I’ve since become a convert! I use Claude Code to help me with almost all the work I do now, here’s how: Why?

In Claude Code Everything is a File, and it knows how to use your computer like you do.

Name your files well, and CC will be able to search them like you would.

This lets you make custom setups for memory, todos, journals, screenshots and more.

✨ New AI Interfaces powered by Interpretability

I'm excited to share LatentLit, the result of my applied AI research fellowship with @GoodfireAI

Mechanistic interpretability isn’t just important for AI safety, it also gives us new ways to steer and interact with LLMs. In LatentLit, you write stories by like a DJ might make music, adjusting knobs and dials using steering and seeing what effect they have. You might call it Vibe Writing.

Try it out here!
