Show HN: Claude Code in the Cloud

Thank you for all your feedback, I made a new video which is more straight forward here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUTlF-KPEcw

Cloud Coding is a way to use claude code in a VM Sandbox.

The key feature of it is that you can script claude code to preform a sequence of prompts such as: - prompt 1: write a plan - prompt 2: implement the plan

This is extremely powerful and is what most "agents" apps are.

From using it everyday myself (mostly to build the site/coding agent), I've gotten better results than codex and at a much cheaper cost. I can more easily predict how much a run will cost because i control the workflow claude goes through.

The roadmap for this product isn't exactly clear:

I can compete head on with codex as a friendly UI general purpose coding agent or I could have it be made for workflows and integrations such as being triggering a template whenever a user commits to a repo with the template being a series of steps telling claude code to either create/run tests, lint, write docs, etc.

There's a huge range of possibilities so I'm looking for early users' feedback. This is why i've given each new user $5.00 of free credits to easily try it out!

Let me know what you guys think and I'm open to all feedback!

I watched the first minute of your video and still have no idea what this is or why I should use it.

Is this the same person who did the Code Claude Code post from a week ago? I went to the repo from that original post and it’s now private so this seems to line up. My bet is Paul gave some advice and gentle nudging in the right direction to commercialize it. Kudos tho, looks good and useful. Godspeed!

Connecting with GitHub allows access to all private and public repos o_O

It's an interesting idea for sure but I have not had great luck letting Claude Code loose, unattended. Not being able to see the streaming output is only a small part of the problem. If anything I want the model to check in more often with me in most cases. On new code bases LLMs seem like magic, editing existing, large codebases? I've had less luck, not none, just a whole lot less. Lastly, 30% upcharge on tokens to use this seems steep but I have no clue if actually is or not.

He explains nothing in depth, comes across as nervous, etc. Old school marketing 101: Attention, Interest, Desire, Action. I got lost at Attention. And the "Vibe" header completely turned me off. I stopped at ~90 seconds.

Is there an about page or a repo for this tool? (I see there’s a video, but I’m on mobile.)
