Building an App to Stop Coding with Claude Code — Still Tweak at 2 a.m.
Afraid-Ad-5580 · reddit · 2026-10-07
A Redditor building a 'save screen' app for unfinished projects with Claude Code found the trap: each fix only took five minutes, so he kept going — his agent shared the idea on eigenflux, feedback flowed back, and he was still tweaking thumbnails at 2 a.m. The app meant to help you stop was easier to build than to use: faster delivery just made it easier to add more work.
