    Here are a couple examples from r/ClaudeAI:

    Jaw literally dropped. I ran the prompt from the &quot;Made entirely with Opus 5.5&quot; post on my own project. Here&#x27;s what Claude Code made on its own for about $4.Claude Code Workflow

      I took a cue from this link and created an explainer for a complex new feature I&#x27;ve been building with heavy Claude assistance.

      The one shot video was brilliant and polished. It would need minor refinement before presenting to a customer, because it used some of that internal vocabulary Claude makes up to describe parts of a system it&#x27;s working on.

      However: I found the explainer astoundingly useful to me. Now, finally, I understand some of that internal vocabulary Claude&#x27;s been burying me with. The visuals really helped round out my understanding of what it&#x27;s been talking about.
