Show HN: Strava for Claude Code (opens in new tab)

Thank you for putting my feelings into words. "Really weird" is exactly how I feel. AI output in our work should be measured in engineering progress, not in use metrics, right?

i think of straude as serving a similar role as habit trackers and github's contribution graph. some of us have a goal to use claude code daily, like how others might run or play the piano daily. it can be encouraging to do it with friends' support, see your progress visualised, etc. diff strokes for diff folks!

sort of what happened when that cc tool that displays total token/costs was released.

people on reddit and discord started actively competing for who had the biggest numbers when really you could effectively 'win' by making the thing spit total gibberish.

I think it's a joke

thx for the great feedback!

great libraries already exist for usage tracking (like ccusage), think of this as just a social layer on top so you can follow other ppl's claude code sessions.

agree landing on global feed vs. "following" makes it more clear, will make that change now.

re: gaming the system, the cli tool pulls from local data usage data files to "verify". while this might be possible to spoof, it'd be a lot of work for not very much gain :)

thx! good point. i once heard the cto of supabase say that they didn't hit pmf until they added the copy "open-source firebase alternative" to their website copy & overall product positioning. that was when it finally clicked for devs.

that said, if we're so fortunate to get enough users for this become a problem, i won't hesitate to take it off :)

right now it just pulls from Claude Code's local data files via ccusage (https://ccusage.com/guide/#data-sources)
