🚀 Shipped the biggest ProofNod update since launch. Honest story: I showed the app to a bunch of people and most didn't get it. Too many pages and menus for what is a simple idea: client asks for extra work, you get a signed yes before you do it. So I cut it down hard. Fewer menus, settings in one place, one obvious flow. You open it and you know what to do. Also added the thing I'm most excited about: an AI assistant inside the app. Paste the client's message and it checks it against your project scope, tells you straight up if it's scope creep, and drafts the whole change order. You just review and send. My first test: it caught an out of scope request and priced it in about 20 seconds. Free plan gets 10 assistant messages a month, so you can try it without paying anything. If you freelance and you know the "just one more small thing" client, link below. Tell me what feels off, what's missing, what you'd change. I read everything.

Can someone explain me, how’s that better for us?? Are they think we are idiots?
Hi, Tomorrow we are re-opening the Pro $200 subscriptions to new subscribers, but together with it we are also changing how we calculate the usage for it. In effect, if you do the math, it will net out at half the dollar in API spend compared to the old Pro $200 plan. Now that it's said, let me explain why this is happening and why you will still get more work done than if you were on the Pro $200 subscription one month ago. (a) We didn't want to compromise in other ways and are committing to not reintroducing the 5h limit, so that you can fully use the weekly usage when you want. (b) On the subscription, we guarantee that over time you always get more work done and with an increasing level of quality. This means that you will continue to get more value per dollar spent as a result of models getting more efficient and us passing down the improvements in the form of API price reductions. (c) We don't want to put an incentive on ourselves to artificially inflate the API list prices to make it look like you are getting a lot (and workaround it through discounts, etc). Instead we want to continue to both rapidly reduce prices and increase capabilities of models on the API. This week we introduced GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna at 50% of their previous price. Over time, we see prices go low enough that it makes sense for most to buy usage as needed without there being a significant gap between what you get in a subscription and what you get in the API for a dollar spent. (d) Tomorrow, we are adding more things to the subscription that won't draw on the usage, I won't reveal what that is yet. I wanted to be transparent before all the big announcements tomorrow. Lots of new exciting things are coming to the subscriptions that will make it super compelling, but I wanted to make sure to share this change ahead of time so you can all understand it before we shower you with good news. Codexingly, Tibo

Beginning July 20, Claude Fable 5 will be included in all Max and Team Premium plans, at 50% of limits. Pro and Team Standard users will continue to have access to Fable via usage credits, and will receive a one-time $100 credit. Demand for Fable has been challenging to predict, which is why we rolled it out to subscription plans in stages, extending access several times as we secured additional capacity.

Introducing ProofNod: approve extra client work before it eats your profit. Every freelancer knows this message: "Hey! Can you also just add a quick booking page? Should be super easy 🙏" Say yes, and you work free. Say no, and you sound difficult. I got it enough times that I built the third option. When a client asks for extra work, ProofNod turns the request into a professional approval page in about 2 minutes: what's changing, what it costs, how it moves the deadline. Your client gets a link. No account, no login. One click to approve. You start the work AFTER it's approved and on record. Not before. It's live now. The first 20 members lock in 50% off for 12 months, a permanent Founding Member badge, and a direct line to me for feature requests. Free plan exists too, no credit card. Honest question for freelancers: what's the most work you've ever done for free because saying no felt awkward? I'll go first below.

My answer: a "small" homepage tweak that turned into a few weeks of unpaid revisions. That project is why ProofNod exists. Try it here: proofnod.com The founding 50% applies automatically at checkout for the first 20 members. When they're gone, they're gone.

The actual numbers: Founding members get 50% off for 12 months, monthly or yearly. Solo is $9.50/mo, or $7.50 billed yearly. Studio is $24.50, or $19.50 yearly. Locked rate, no surprise hikes. One approved change order usually pays for the whole year.

Shipped v1.8.0 of tempo-mcp-server 🚀 Your AI agent can now see your whole team's Tempo worklogs, not just your own. New in this release: ✔︎ users / program / team filters on all read tools ✔︎ per-person analytics with groupBy: "user" ✔︎ missing-worklog reports for entire teams, sorted by who owes the most hours Why we built it: end of every month, someone on our team had to go back through MONTHS of worklogs for entire programs. Person by person, project by project, checking who forgot to log time. Literally hours of clicking through Tempo. Now it's one sentence: "Who in Program X is missing worklogs this month?" Seconds later: names, days, exact missing hours. Sorted. If you're a PM, team lead or ops person living in Jira + Tempo, this will give you hours of your life back. Works with Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or any MCP client. And no permission tricks: Tempo enforces access server-side, so nobody sees anything they couldn't already see in the UI. Link below 👇

The backstory makes it better: This feature wasn't on any roadmap. A teammate got tired of the manual monthly audit, built it himself with Claude Code, and opened a PR the same week. We reviewed it, hardened a few edge cases together (Jira privacy settings hiding emails from search, Tempo silently omitting worklogs you lack permission to view) and shipped everything the same day: review, fixes, npm release, Cloudflare deploy. Open source, MIT. Stars very welcome ⭐ github.com/ivelin-web/tempo-…

Local (Cursor / Claude Code / Claude Desktop): npx @ivelin-web/tempo-mcp-server Remote (claude.ai, ChatGPT, even your phone): self-host the Cloudflare Worker from the repo, your team gets a setup page and personal URLs. Then just ask: "Show me everyone on my team who logged under 8h last week."

Finally, we are getting it back guys - Fable 5 is coming back globally 🔥
Claude Fable 5 will be available again globally tomorrow. After a series of productive conversations with the US government, we're redeploying the model with a new set of classifiers to target and block more cybersecurity tasks. In the near term, some routine tasks like coding and debugging will fall back to Opus 4.8. We’ll continue to refine these classifiers over the coming weeks to reduce false positives and better distinguish genuine misuse from legitimate requests. We’ve also begun drafting a consensus framework—with Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and other Glasswing partners—for assessing the severity of AI jailbreaks and how AI developers should respond to them. We invite other industry partners and model providers to join us in this effort. Finally, we’re scaling up our collaboration with the US government on model testing and safeguards. This will include pre-release access to models and safeguards for evaluation, information sharing on jailbreaks and misuse, and dedicated resources for joint research. Thank you to our users for your patience, and to our partners across the government, industry, and the research community who worked alongside us to make Fable 5 available again.
