... Building @Tonkotsu has taught us many lessons in product design, with both the underlying technology and user behavior shifting rapidly. One of the hardest but most critical lessons we ve learned is about calibrating the zoom level how close or far the user feels from the work. You can see examples of this play out across the industry: Codex gets flak for going heads-down for too long compared to Claude. Users feel too zoomed out from the work ... ... contrast, Cursor and IDEs are starting to feel too zoomed in. When the majority of code is written by agents, an editor-first UI is a misfit. We've had zoom level mismatches with Tonkotsu

... launched dark mode for Tonkotsu earlier this week. It was written entirely by Tonkotsu

... reinstall them every day to somewhat fix the issue. I've been a heavy Linux user on and off since 09 and have hopped all the distros. I might try to run the Windows version of Tonkotsu with WINE or even Lutris, but I am unsure of how that will go. I don't know if there will be a linux build. I know half of san fransisco is on mac so probably not lol. but one can dream. Comment ... ... from AJ(@build_with_aj): @derekattonkotsu   Would it help if I have tonkotsu

... everyone - we re tremendously grateful for our fantastic launch yesterday, ending at #1 for the day. Thank you all for your support! I started Tonkotsu because I saw a huge opportunity for a complete rethink of AI coding not just incremental adjustments to established tools and workflows. Having managed teams of hundreds of engineers at Meta, Microsoft, and Atlassian, it s been fascinating to me to find that the role of the developer has shifted overnight ... ... manager of a team of agents. We're building Tonkotsu

... agents? This is still such a new discipline that it would be great to share amongst this community of builders. I ll kick off with an experience that had us scratching our heads for months last year Our product, @Tonkotsu , runs a bunch of coding agents in parallel. They re built on top of Sonnet 4.5 and do coding tasks by repeatedly calling tools to read and write code. We review task failures daily and started noticing something strange: some ... ... signup and a login modal, use supabase auth. The objective is to provide frictionless onboarding. Use google auth and github auth aside from email/password. The difference is mentioning the app itself and the objective. For tonkotsu

... models pop up every week. Some developer tools like @Cursor , @Zed , and @Kilo Code let you choose between different models, while more opinionated products like @Amp and @Tonkotsu default to 1 model. Curious what the community recommends for coding tasks? Any preferences? Comment from Siarhei(@siarhei_ai): @fmerian Thanks for the upvote! For coding: Claude 3.5/Opus still crushes complex logic, but new ones like Gemini CLI gaining speed. What s your daily driver in 2026? (I m fine-tuning ... ... Flash), but I don't feel GPT 5.2 and I will become a team. It's just it feels like Sonnet really knows e.g. TS in real detail. But then maybe I just like how the others behave in VSCode
