simonwillison.net · 2026-07-12

Jarred Sumner reports that coordinated Claude agents autonomously ported over one million lines of code in 11 days at an estimated API cost of $165,000. The Rust port has already been live in Claude Code for nearly a month without users noticing.

“Claude Code v2.1.181 (released June 17th) and later use the Rust port of Bun.”
