Monetization
Estimated X creator earnings
$43–$102 in the last 30 days
From 8.5M views on @bcherny's original posts in the last 30 days.
Rewards eligibility: likely
Rough estimate. X publishes no payout rate, so this assumes about $5–12 per 1M original-post impressions from reported creator payouts. Only Premium viewers’ impressions count, so real payouts can be much lower.

I am surprised that people are surprised this is how I prompt Claude. Talk to Claude the way you would a coworker. There's no secret to prompting. There's no need to be overly scaffolded or prescriptive for most tasks -- give Claude a goal, and it will figure it out. Back in the Sonnet 3.5 days, your prompt mattered a lot. Nowadays, it's much more important to communicate to the model: 1. What you want it to do 2. How much effort you want it to spend 3. How it should verify that it did the right thing

I used Opus 5.5 to formally verify the Claude Agent SDK using Lean. A couple short prompts = 16 PRs fixing various bugs and race conditions. Video attached. TLA+ also works well. I sometimes combine Lean and TLA+ to look for issues around data flow, concurrency, and state mgmt. I don't know either language well, but Claude is excellent at both. This approach is super useful for formally modeling your code and finding bugs that a human probably wouldn't have spotted. Is formal verification the future of coding (or at least, bug finding)?

Mods are absolutely insane. You can now customize Claude to work and look the way you want by just prompting it. Each person works differently, so there's no reason why everyone should have an identical Claude experience. Make Claude your own, and share mods as plugins so others can try your mods too.

I could not imagine being productive without Claude Code Review. It runs on all of my PRs, and catches almost every bug before it goes it. This is a piece of the secret sauce that lets the team and I move so quickly while raising the quality bar

Over the last few years, we have made significant progress on prompt injection for Claude models. As agents do more, it is increasingly urgent that we solve it across the industry. Really excited to partner with Gray Swan to host this competition. Can’t wait to see what you find!

I asked Opus 5.5 to make an interactive website companion for the latest @AcquiredFM Home Depot episode. It came out pretty nice! Water color illustrations all drawn by Claude, too: https://t.co/Camrfu3bwT Episode here: https://t.co/x2t57gdjxr

Tag writes >50% of my PRs every day. It also does ~100% of my data analysis, and fixes most of our product feedback + bugs. It's not like a regular Slack bot. It is proactive, programmable, it has memory, it has access to your connectors. With Opus 5.5 and Fable 5.1, it has strong judgement. Example prompts I use: - "@Claude react to threads in this channel with ✅ when resolved" - "@Claude from now on, attempt to repro every bug in this channel end to end, running the full app. once you reproduce the bug, put up a pr to fix it and tag the right team for code review" - "@Claude brainstorm ~100 hypotheses for what could explain this weird data, use a workflow to in/validate. spend 10m tokens or so digging very deep. draw a chart with the result." - "@Claude make me an interactive game explaining how this part of the code works, then make a slide deck explaining it for others on the team" https://t.co/gmsALM8Lvs

Opus 5.5 is a really good model. It's been my daily driver the last few weeks. We had Opus 5.5 and Fable 5.1 each port HAProxy from C to Rust. Both passed nearly all of HAProxy's tests, but Opus 5.5 finished in 9.5 hours compared to Fable 5.1's 12 hours, and for 51% less cost.

Projects have changed not only how I interact with Claude but how I code. I stopped managing sessions. I just send thoughts as they come, Claude splits them into threads, and the project remembers how I work. It's where I do a ton of my coding now.

Also today: Claude Docs, Claude Slides, and Claude Design are in every conversation. Ask Claude for a presentation and you get one you can open, edit, and export as PowerPoint or PDF. Same for a document or a design. There's no separate tool to navigate to. They're just in the chat.

Claude Code showed that AI could do real work, not just answer questions. Developers hand Claude a feature, come back to shipped code. That's where much of the industry's serious engineering runs now. Cowork proved knowledge workers could do the same: hand Claude the brief, come back to finished files. Today, chat and Cowork start merging into one Claude. The direction: one Claude that carries context across everything you're working on, wherever you are. Simple enough for everyone to access Claude's full capabilities. I've been using this experience every day for the last few weeks, and it feels awesome. Simpler, faster, and more powerful. We're rolling this out slowly. We'll be fine-tuning the experience as we go to ensure it is fast and reliable. Can't wait to hear what you think.
