30,000 Claude agents, 130K lines of code, and a backlash over wasted compute

The post reacts harshly to a claim that 30,000 Claude 4.5 Opus agents produced 130K lines of code and 5,900 Lean declarations in one week.
The author’s point is that most of that compute looks wasted, and that the scale of agent usage is becoming hard to justify when the output is framed as a victory.
