‼️CLAUDE JUST RESET LIMITS‼️
Just thought I'd post one of these again if you're not aware... Claude just resets everyone's limits to 0% used while keeping your weekly limit reset date the same so you effectively have free rein until your next weekly limit. Seems like the consensus is this is in response to GPT 5.6 being made public. So get back to playing with Fable if you maxed it out like myself! I got extra lucky as my limit resets at Sat 12:00 am so I've effectively got double usage 🔥

@Mira Bradshaw Insane scenes on X right now haha. I got it to do a deep dive as I had spare usage before my last Saturday reset. It looked through all my different repos, mapped things together, looked through my Notion and all of my diaries that I had stored on there (just weekly diaries), and did a deep run-through of 20 big skills around AI and which ones are important and which ones are lacking. I came up with ideas to launch Fable across my life and do deep analysis and research and see what it can do just out of testing it. Maybe if you have some spare usage, you can do some of that stuff! Happy to share more details if you are interested.

@Mira Bradshaw The higher power treats those who deserve 💪
The Fellowship of the Forge
I’ve been sharing in here about my work building a construction crew to help build bakeries - a workspace I have named Mira’s Forge. In my “hey I think I have 30-40 hours of Fable tokens left, YOLO!” post, @Alex Brown asked for a video about the build. And I was like “hmmm I didn’t film anything”, but in my next comment I was like “I keep *really* detailed records and I have Fable tokens which are about to expire” (or not, but I wouldn’t know that for about another 12 hours) 🤔. This is that video. Turns out it was long, because I talk too much and I keep detailed records. I’m hoping this might be of interest and value to some here. I would love to know what you think. https://youtu.be/vUSvUnlrcxk

@Mira Bradshaw you did the work! Incredible... And have you just seen? Claude, have we set everyone's limits?

@Mira Bradshaw yeah, really nice. I've been thinking about getting into more of the animation creation of this nature, hence why I asked. Seems like a really well thought out systematic process so definitely gonna look back at this when I get around to doing this kinda thing myself!
How is everyone approaching Sonnet 5?
Some context: I was chatting with fable, asking about pros and cons of planning for code sessions using chat mode vs plan mode in Claude code. I worked out an entire plan and asked fable to generate the plan based on how Sonnet 5 operates, so it can do its job as best as possible. Reading and iterating over the entire plan, I noticed that fable wrote prompts that included quite a lot of steps per prompt. This surprised me and it made me chat in other chats using fable 5 as well as opus 4.8 (to reduce bias), and they all came to the same conclusion on how to best deal with Sonnet 5. It made me realize that the methodology of following a step by step prompting plan in Claude code may be outdated now that we have Sonnet 5 and I’m starting to think that it may be more worthwhile to work out a detailed plan using chat mode and give that plan in its entirety and the associated commands in larger chunks to Sonnet 5 for execution. Maybe this will save lots of tokens! What do you think? How do you use Sonnet 5?

What you've landed on is the thing I'd argue was true before Sonnet 5 too - handing over the full plan beats feeding it turn by turn, because going back and forth just to get the model up to speed means the context should have been there at the start. Sonnet 5 just makes the cost of not doing it more obvious. The PLAN.md-as-source-of-truth prompt you shared is exactly the shape. The line that makes it work is "state your assumption in one line and proceed" - that's the whole game: a plan detailed enough to follow deterministically, with bounded judgement only where it's genuinely silent. Too rigid and it stalls on gaps, too loose and it wanders. The one thing I'd watch with the bigger chunks is telling it where NOT to continue, which you already flagged - the failure mode is it carrying momentum past a decision point that actually needed you. How are you marking those stops in the plan itself?
We didn't find Jake by accident
There's something happening in here that I feel like I need to surface. I just cut a short from our conversation with Brian Clark on Bullhorns & Bullseyes. If you don't know Brian, he's the founder of Copyblogger—started it as a one-man site in 2006, before "content marketing" was even a phrase, and it's been called one of the most influential blogs in the world. He didn't invent blogging, but he's about as close as anyone to inventing what blogging became for business. Near the end of the episode, he says... "We're tribal. We can't shake our evolutionary upbringing, where you are attracted to people like you. That used to be based on appearance or geography, and now it's identity. And what is identity? It's a bundle of beliefs." He'd just said belonging is going to be more coveted, not less, as AI floods everything with things we can't tell are real. And the belonging that's left standing isn't geographic. It's not "we live near each other" or "we look alike." It's "we believe the same things." Now, for those of us in this community, we didn't all show up already agreeing on everything, and we didn't converge here because Jake is the guy to follow. We converged because @Jake Van Clief said something true first, and a few thousand of us recognized our own belief in it before we had words for it ourselves. That's how this works—someone has to say it first, most of us here, especially in the beginning, didn't need to be convinced. We were being reminded. This concept isn't new. It takes the same shape as every real reformation does. Belief stops living inside one person or institution and starts living in whoever recognizes it. Jake didn't build a following. He built a mirror, and we all walked up and saw ourselves in it. @Ruben Aguirre already did this in here—put his actual beliefs on the table, not a bio. If you're willing, I'd like to hear yours, too. But I'll go further than that. You've already been doing the belief work if you've built an ICM.

The belief I keep coming back to is that understanding is built, not studied. I went full-time into this instead of university because I'd already noticed the things I actually understood were the ones I'd built and broken myself, never the ones I'd only read about. Everything I trust about how these systems behave, I learned by watching mine fail and fixing them. The corollary is the one that keeps me honest: there's no finished version. Every fix surfaces the next layer, and the value is in the climbing, not the arriving. That's why a room full of people actually building beats one full of people talking about it - you're all comparing what broke, not what you read.
Any SaaS founders or considering starting a SaaS?
I would like to connect with SaaS founders or members thinking about starting a SaaS. I am currently running an Agency but I want to transition to a Productized Agency and eventually a SaaS platform. Would be great to exchange ideas.

I'm building in this direction myself - Professor Clive is an exam-intelligence platform, so it sits somewhere between a productized service and a full SaaS, and I've been working through the same agency-to-product path you're describing. The thing I'd pass on from doing it is that productizing first is what teaches you which parts of the work actually standardise. You keep the human delivery while you find the repeatable core, and only then does removing the human into SaaS make sense. Jumping straight to SaaS skips the step where you learn which parts were never as repeatable as they looked. What's pushing you toward productized agency first rather than straight at SaaS - the recurring-revenue proof, or keeping the cash flow while you build?
