Update: Claude Code and s3.7 has been a significant step up for me. Previously, s3.6 was giving me about a 1.5x speedup. s3.5 more like 1.2x
CC+s3.7 is solidly over 2x, with periods of more than that when working on easy well-represented tasks not in an area I know myself (e.g. Node.js)
Here’s someone who seems to be getting a lot more out of Claude Code though:

i have upgraded to 4 claude code sessions working in parallel in a single tmux session, each on their own feature branch and then another tmux window with yet another claude in charge of merging and resolving merge conflicts
“Good morning Claude! Please take a look at the project board, the issues you’ve been assigned and the open PR’s for this repo. Lets develop a plan to assign each of the relevant tasks to claude workers 1 − 5 and LETS GET TO WORK BUDDY!”
Been in Monk mode and missed the MCP and Manus TL barrage. i am averaging about 10k LoC a day per project on 3 projects simultaneously and id say 90% no slop. when slop happens i have to go in an deslop by hand / completely rewrite but so far its a reasonable tradeoff. this is still so wild to me that this works at all. this is also the first time ive done something like a version of TDD where we (claude and i) agonize over the tests and docs and then team claude goes and hill climbs them. same with benchmarks and perf targets. Code is always well documented and follows google style guides / rust best practices as enforced by linters and specs. we follow professional software development practices with issues and feature branches and PRs. i’ve still got a lot of work to do to understand how to make the best use of this and there are still a ton of very sharp edges but i am completely convinced this is workflow / approach the future in a way cursor / windsurf never made me feel or believe (i stopped using them after being bitten by bugs and slop too often). this is a power user’s tool and would absolutely ruin a codebase if you weren’t a very experienced dev and tech lead on large codebases already. ok, going back into the monk mode cave now
