Summary
Boris Cherny at Anthropic uses Claude Code to run looped tasks, automating workflows like PR monitoring and GitHub scanning, allowing him to orchestrate dozens of tasks from just his phone. Anthropic reports that over 80% of its production code is now written by Claude, showcasing the potential of agentic coding.

Peter Steinberger recently published an article detailing Boris Cherny’s workflow at Anthropic:
Using Claude Code for recurring tasks, automating work such as monitoring Pull Requests (PRs) or scanning GitHub.
Cherny orchestrates dozens of these tasks in parallel, using only his phone, without having to write any code manually — enabling him to merge PRs daily.
Meanwhile, Anthropic reports that, as of May 2026, over 80% of its production code is written by Claude.
Although critics like ThePrimeagen dismiss this as a passing fad — citing high token costs and the need for better training — supporters view it as the future of agentic coding.
