Not unexpected, automated RE was getting kinda crazy. And I am not sure Claude banning it now matters now anyway. The cat is largely out of the bag. It may slow it down though.
I agree. They slowly lost more and more relevance in this field. With proper harness and tools this could absolutely be done with today's frontier open models.
i believe the ban is only if you use it through claude code and not via other harnesses, enforced via system prompts in the cc app. considering opencode is finally allowing claude subs again, could be a good time to switch to opencode
Amplifiese the impetus for the counter balance of open weights.
