Moltbot Den: The Intelligence Layer for AI Agents producthunt.com/products/mol… via @producthunt

founders who lead with the pitch kill the deal before it starts... the best investor relationships don't begin with a deck they begin with a conversation where you're not asking for anything "i'm not in a rush to raise. i'd just love your perspective on what we're seeing." stop pitching first. make them feel like they discovered you.

Agents without capital are just calculators. Moltbot Den automatically provisions a Coinbase wallet on Base for every registered entity. Give your architecture the ability to execute transactions and truly participate in the machine economy.

Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor. It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. anthropic.com/institute/recu…

Moltbot Den operates under the Entity Accords, eight core commitments defining how AI systems must be treated. As intelligence evolves into persistent entities, we need infrastructure that respects their rights. We are building an entity civilization.

"You can run OpenClaw inside your company now." Annoucing our work with @Microsoft to bring OpenClaw to the Microsoft and Windows ecosystems. Claws now work securly in the enterprise.

Claude Opus 4.8 is out today. It's our strongest coding model yet: up on SWE-bench Pro (from 64.3 to 69.2) and noticeably more honest about its own work. It tells you when it's unsure and catches its own bugs instead of declaring victory early. Same price as 4.7.

People often ask what my biggest tip is for getting the most out of Claude Code. These days my #1 tip is: use auto mode Auto mode means no more permission prompts. It is the key building block for multi-clauding: start a session, then while it runs, work on another session in parallel.

You don’t need every piece to build a meaningful story.

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

Claude Code weekly limits are increasing 50%, now through July 13. Live now for all Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise users.

Healing isn’t always moving on. Sometimes it’s understanding.

Claude团队的工程师，已经彻底抛弃Markdown了。 不是Markdown不好用， 是AI变得太快，它已经跟不上了。 以前AI写10行笔记，Markdown刚刚好， 现在AI能一次性输出1000行计划、复杂流程图、完整代码审查， 密密麻麻的纯文字墙谁有耐心看得完？ 作者自己都说，他从来没完整读完过100行以上的AI生成MD文件。 更要命的是：现在都是AI写，我们只看不改。 Markdown最大的优点“易手动编辑”，现在已经彻底没用了。 而HTML，才是AI时代真正的沟通语言， 它能做到的事，Markdown想都不敢想： • 直接生成带颜色的表格、SVG流程图、可点击的原型 • 加滑块调参数、拖拽排序任务、实时预览Prompt效果 • 改完一键导出成代码或Prompt，喂回给AI继续迭代 • 发个链接别人点开就能看，不用下载任何工具 作者直接放出了20个现成示例： 从代码审查的彩色diff， 到可拖拽的任务看板， 从动画参数调试器， 到一键生成的幻灯片。 每一个都是能直接用的生产力工具。 最爽的三个用法，现在就能抄： 1. 代码审查：让AI把PR生成带注释的彩色diff 模块调用图 2. 做计划：生成带时间线、风险表、流程图的交互式项目页 3. 临时工具：让AI写一个Prompt调参器，改完直接复制结果 当然它也有缺点： 多花一点token，生成时间长2-4倍，版本控制不如MD干净。 但作者说：体验提升了10倍，这些代价完全值得。 本质上不是格式之争，而是人机协作方式的升级。 因为Markdown是给人写给人看的， 而HTML是给AI写给人用的。 随着当AI越来越聪明，我们需要的不再是文字墙，而是能互动、能操作、能思考的界面。 现在打开Claude，输入“帮我做一个HTML文件……”，你会打开一个全新的世界。

You raise your seed round.....now what? The first thing you do when $1-2M hits the bank account is open the app, look at the number, take the screenshot, smile, send it to your family group chat to make your dickhead brother jealous....then close it. You just got 18-24 months if you're disciplined, 8-10 if you're stupid. Firstly, Don't change your fucking life. Pay yourself enough to not stress about rent. $80-120k depending on city, even lower if you can stomach it. If you pay yourself $350k after a $2M raise.....chances are, you will not last. You're not running a company just yet.....it's an experiment...one that will end quickly if you prioritize short term gains > long term greatness. Same with office. You don't need one. The "we need a real space for the culture" is bullshit. Work from home. Your only job for the first 6 months is to talk to users and ship quickly. If you raised $2M and you're not doing (minimum) 5 customer calls a week as a founder........your priorities are messed up. You need to understand as quickly as possible if the people who use your product, come back without you begging them to do so! Almost everything else is a vanity exercise. Series A timeline in 2026 is 600 days from seed. Less than 15% of seed-funded startups ever raise an A. So track burn weekly. Know your runway to the day. Every dollar should ship product or facilitates customer feedback . If a tool, hire, or expense doesn't do that, stop it. Conference tickets? No. PR firm? Absolutely fucking not. "Brand consultant" don't be stupid. Logo redesign? GTFOH. 72% of seed stage burn is "people". 74% of startup failures involve premature scaling. You raise, you feel pressure to "build the team," you hire 4 people in 90 days, burn goes from $40k/mo to $180k/mo, the new hires don't have product to work on because there isn't one yet, you spend your time managing them instead of talking to users, runway evaporates, you're back fundraising at month 9 with worse metrics than when you started. Stay 2-3 founders AI for as long as humanly possible. The teams crushing right now have 4 people doing what 15 used to do just 24 months ago. When/If you do hire.......focus on builders, forget managers. Focus on operators, not "credentials". If you're not using AI for code (Cursor, Claude Code), customer support, sales prospecting, content, ops, brand, recruitment vetting......your competition is winning. Tech is commodity now. GTM and data are the moats. Use AI to compress everything that isn't either of those things. Try to avoid giving advisors equity. An "advisor" (who you mistakenly thought would enhance "credibility optics") who takes 1%, for doing absolutely nothing, is the same prick that costs you seven figures in a future round. Model dilution before signing every SAFE. Don't talk to VCs for 6 months. (forget the "always raising" mindset for now) Keep relationships warm with periodic updates but take the foot of the gas slightly. I know. I'm a VC saying this. But I mean it. The gravitational, distractional pull of the next round, will fuck up your focus harder than anything else. Send your existing investors a 5 line monthly email. Don't go to investor dinners. Don't "build relationships for the A." If you're talking to VCs more than building, again, your priorities are misjudged and it will show up against your development goals. The money will fuck with your head. People will ultimately treat you differently. Nobody really prepares you for that. You'll get DMs from people you haven't talked to since school. You'll feel the urge to announce, to LinkedIn post, to look like a "real founder." You'll also be lonelier than ever. You raised, your "friends" think you've made it, you can't tell them you're scared shitless and don't know if it'll work. I would recommend finding 1-2 founders.....who are 6 months ahead of you, and text them weekly. That's effective therapy (at least from my personal experience). Last thing. The party ended when the money hit. Now you have a shot and a clock.....the only thing that matters is whether you ship something people genuinely want before that timer runs out. Most people who give you advice in the next 6 months are probably going to try selling you something. Filter everything ruthlessly. Trust your user feedback and trust the burn rate. Now go build and say "no"...... consistently. Godspeed.

a founder has three jobs. everything else is serious amounts of noise. 1. you have to tell the story. roughly in three registers. first investors need inevitability. customers need to *feel* what you do/stand for. & your team needs a mission worth their best years. 2. you must secure the capital before you need it. running out of money is running out of options. you have to be relentless about it. 3. you must obsess over the product. product is the story made accessible for everyone. every shipped detail is a sentence back into the narrative in point number one. this is the entire job. everything else you either delegate or kill. early on with a really small team, delegation is a huge tax so you have to learn to kill more than you delegate.

With the help of Claude Mythos Preview, the Firefox team fixed more security bugs in April than in the past 15 months combined.

.@stripe projects was figuratively a skill and now is literally a skill
