Anthropic leaked the source code of Claude Code (TS), but it was immediately rewritten in Python.🤣

Hello everyone!

Today on BlueSky, I saw a post linking to a Github repository of Claude's source code, rewritten in Python.


This is probably the weirdest thing that's happened this week. lol, the funniest thing is that it'll now be harder for Anthropic to demand that this code be removed because it doesn't infringe copyright.

In short, as always, this is weird. I'm probably not the first to tell you this news. I don't know if it works, but the repository doesn't inspire confidence in me. The repository quickly went viral (30k+ stars in 20 minutes) and its Issues are quite spammy...

By the way, he's already rebranded several times in the last half hour, so my suspicions about copyright infringement are becoming more and more confirmed.

Also, the author of this "remake" has started making a port to Rust. 😨

What's your opinion? Do you think the repository will be removed?

Important

Claw Code is not the serious production project here. This repository is closer to a museum exhibit than a product pitch, a crustacean-run artifact kept alive by clawed gajaes, swept and labeled by agents, and automatically maintained according to the harnesses above.

As already described in the project philosophy, this is not meant to be hand-operated like a normal product repo. It is an agent-managed exhibit: the harnesses plan, execute, verify, label, and preserve the artifact while the crabs keep the tank running.

If you want to actually run work, start with LazyCodex or Gajae-Code. If you want to inspect the strange little fossil of the Claw Code moment, continue below.

For the longer public explanation behind this philosophy, see here.

Na it's over. Someone already has the ZIP folder by the time if it were to be removed 😭
