Up 42,893 views in 64 hours, from 63,096 to 105,989 - about 7.6 times the typical pace of other items SteadyVane tracks on YouTube. 1,479 likes and 86 comments, about five days after it was published.

Why it matters: It tests a coding agent on a non-coding job with real footage. For anyone who edits video occasionally, it shows what the workflow looks like end to end.

A YouTube video from Jay E | RoboNuggets walking through nine mods for Claude Code. Per Anthropic's release notes, mods are small TypeScript functions shipped in plugins.

Up 27,077 views in 12 hours, from 557,663 to 584,740 - about 17.6 times the typical pace of other items SteadyVane tracks on YouTube. 7,501 likes and 174 comments, about four days after it was published.

Why it matters: Mods are real and recent, per Anthropic's release notes. But the fact-check could not view the video's transcript or PDF guide, so whether all nine are as useful as claimed is unconfirmed.

The feature is real. The claim that nine of them change how you work is the creator's.
