The big loss for Anthropic here is how it reveals their product roadmap via feature flags. A big one is their unreleased "assistant mode" with code name kairos.
Just point your agent at this codebase and ask it to find things and you'll find a whole treasure trove of info.
Edit: some other interesting unreleased/hidden features
- The Buddy System: Tamagotchi-style companion creature system with ASCII art sprites
- Undercover mode: Strips ALL Anthropic internal info from commits/PRs for employees on open source contributions
(spoiler alert)
Buddy system is this year's April Fool's joke, you roll your own gacha pet that you get to keep. There are legendary pulls.
They expect it to go viral on Twitter so they are staggering the reveals.

Undercover mode also pretends to be human, which I'm less ok with:
