The Head of Claude Code Just Revealed His Exact Workflow (Steal It)

The Head of Claude Code, Boris Cherny, just sat down for a fireside chat at @Scale and casually revealed exactly how he works — and most of it sounds insane. He hasn't typed a line of his own code in over six months, he writes most of it from his phone, and he ships more code than entire teams used to. So I watched the whole talk and pulled out the 8 moves you can copy today — whether you write code or not. Each one comes straight from him (you'll hear the real clips), translated into simple steps with the exact commands, all verified against the official Claude Code docs. ⚡ TIP: watch at 1.25x–1.5x — the value is dense. 🎁 FREE: I turned this whole playbook into a one-page "Steal-It" cheat sheet (every move + every command).
