# How Orta Therox actually uses coding agents

Puzzmo, CocoaPods, Danger

**If you take one thing:** `/commit`, human writes the headline. he types the first line of every commit himself and Claude only adds the body from the diff, so humans still write for humans.

- **Agent:** Claude Code (ide) ([source, 2026-07-03](https://blog.puzzmo.com/posts/2026/07/03/twelve-months-of-claude/))
- **Agent:** Claude Code on the web (web) ([source, 2026-04-02](https://bsky.app/profile/orta.io/post/3miioilpuds2e))
- **Model:** Fable ([source, 2026-07-03](https://blog.puzzmo.com/posts/2026/07/03/twelve-months-of-claude/))
- **Review:** Reads all Puzzmo code; Claude reviews every PR too ([source, 2026-09-28](https://blog.puzzmo.com/posts/2026/09/28/re-evaluating-principles/))
- **At once:** 3 clones ([source, 2026-07-03](https://blog.puzzmo.com/posts/2026/07/03/twelve-months-of-claude/))
- **Harness:** VS Code with the Claude Code extension, multiple clones of the monorepo instead of worktrees ([source, 2026-07-03](https://blog.puzzmo.com/posts/2026/07/03/twelve-months-of-claude/))
- **Rules file:** CLAUDE.md (132 lines, keytrace) ([source, 2026-07-30](https://github.com/orta/keytrace/blob/e2bca7b461854eae26c5e408a7cdec7ba6355540/CLAUDE.md#L11))

## In their words

> I use VS Code for all my coding with Claude Code as an extension.

> I've been trying to use the new scheduled claude code (web) features to do this, so far it's caught a few typos and links

> For most of the year, the models themselves have come and gone. I didn’t really think much about them. This changed with Fable, which I think was a significant jump in capabilities.

> I still operate with multiple clones, though I’ve raised my limit to 3 clones of the Puzzmo monorepo.

> I give pretty specific instructions, read all the code for Puzzmo systems and am very present in reviewing the output of an LLM but every line of code used to be a journey and now it’s a transaction.
