Claude Code creator uses a dozen agents to turn 64 papers into an interactive physics lab

Boris Cherny, creator of Claude Code, tasked a dozen agents with 64 research papers: build a web platform where anyone can independently reproduce physics experiments.
- Clear division of labor: analysts extracted math, baseline assumptions and test settings from the texts; coders turned formulas into working algorithms; auditors reviewed the output.
- The result: users pick a fluid flow model, adjust external conditions and watch the physics change in real time — switching algorithms mid-scene, inspecting formulas, source scripts and numerical metrics alongside the graphics.
The thread calls it "becoming fcking dangerous": an ordinary academic reading list transformed into an interactive research lab right inside the browser.
