Ask HN: What happens when Claude Code goes away?

2 pointsby 58m ago
5 comments
I have become very proficient with Claude Code and I use it for everything, both at work and in my personal life. At this point, if I lost access to it, it would be like missing a body part. At the risk of hyperbole, it makes me a better person. I am more effective in everything I do. Someday it will probably go away. I haven't had great success making Claude Code work with local Ollama/Quen.

Someday it will probably go away.

It won't. There are dumps of the early Claude Code codebase/repo and it can be rebuilt from scratch by the community.

You might lose access to Anthropic's models one day, but there are hundreds of alternative model choices.

The model and the harness go hand in hand, in my opinion; other models aren't interchangeable here for quality results.

Yeah, I know how you feel. When my tokens run out doing work, I bounce to YouTube until I'm recharged. Claude, like prostitution, drugs, and gambling, will never go away. That's not how markets work.
