Using Claude to submit PRs to huge open source projects is stupid, for sure.

But if I need a quick tool, like a secret Santa name picker, I’ll just have Claude build it, push it to a repo, link the repo on some PaaS and have a working, deployed app in 20 minutes. No ads, no accounts & no signing up to random websites. I can build it exactly like I want it and include fun Easter eggs for my family.

Building it myself would take 2-3 hours, and the code quality would be drastically better, but that just doesn’t matter.
