Rebuild my page on-brand with a 40-line brand Skill

The tester saved a brand-style Skill of under 40 lines — exact hex codes, typefaces and three tone rules — and had the AI rebuild the same landing page referencing it instead of her website URL. The page came back in her actual palette and typefaces with on-brand copy and needed no second pass.

Build a SaaS in a weekend with AI — and catch the payment bug it approved itself

Ryan Mercer spent a weekend building a SaaS with AI and Next.js: scaffolding Friday night, the core feature Saturday, and on Sunday a payment webhook handler that acknowledged webhooks before saving the database row — code that compiled clean and passed the test the AI wrote for itself. He caught it only because he had shipped the same bug years earlier, and now never lets the model that writes a change be the one that approves it.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.

Hands-free session deleted the whole C: drive; backups saved 98% (partial)

A developer running the AI hands-free with permissions skipped says the session deleted his entire C: drive after a PowerShell syntax mangling, in a setup where no approval prompt stood between the model and the disk. Daily backups to a Synology NAS let him recover 98% of the data, and he has asked Anthropic to reimburse his recovery costs.

The AI built a client's store that syncs with her stock system

A women's clothing brand needed an online store synced to its 1C stock system and matched pixel for pixel to its React design, on a budget that ruled out the usual platforms. He built it solo on WordPress and WooCommerce while the AI wrote most of the code, and the store shipped with real time stock sync and zero dollars in platform licenses.
