Claude Is Down

https://status.claude.com/history
Just got kicked out while finalising a presentation I'm about to give in 39 minutes.

Wish me luck!

This is where putting a provider-agnostic code agent between you and claude can save your bacon.

I can't speak for how other agents work, but in juggler the conversations are stored in a cross-model format, so if claude runs out of tokens or goes titsup during something urgent, I can just switch models to GPT and carry on without needing to restart the task.

My strategy: diversification. I run deepseek harness (which I made a vs code integration for and extended it a lot with plugins) and integrated it with my codex and claude subscriptions as well as an openrouter account. This way I can switch models and providers during my sessions and does not get blocked on such things.

Useful for - outages - running out of quota - failing agents e.g. because of "cyber" flaging

somewhere down the line, a hook that triggers through an outlook email, didn't trigger today

Does every large company have a big server with some h100s and a couple of open weight models for just such an occasion. Especially if you don’t have the luxury of being able to wait or postpone eg under cyber attack?

Future is local, onpremise
Good thing is at can expect some compensation such as resets. And yeah - diversify your providers, is the same with electricity from utility perspective…

Unacceptable. Just started my workday and four projects are now ruined due to modified source files.

"ruined due to modified source files"?

It really is Friday the 13th today with outlook and now Claude both being mostly down. I wonder if this is related though. Either way not going to be a great ad for their IPO.

"Software is solved" they said.

Will we be able to call in sick in future if Claude is down?
The prayers to Yellowstone are working. Give the magma chamber everything you’ve got, we are so close to ending it.
Microsoft PM-s overloading Claude with outage solution prompts.
Oh no. Anyway...
Hey claude users: is there a way to access claude without being gated by a whatwg cartel web engine?
Time to do some downtime aktivities like in xkcd 303.
