Latest issue
Haiku 5.5 Saved Me 27%
Claude Haiku 5.5 is 90% cheaper per token, but my real chat thread got 27% cheaper. Plus Python 3.15, a Claude dashboard prompt, five repos and an app idea.
Earlier issues
Sonnet 5.5, One Week In
Sonnet 5.5 after a week of building on it, GPT-6.1 Sol, a compaction trick that made an agent 36% cheaper, an iced coffee video prompt and five tools.
The one-prompt lie: 5 repos, a free fix, one app idea
Opus 5.5's viral motion-design videos weren't really one prompt. What they cost, a free Claude Code fix, five repos, and an app idea.
About The Deploy
The Deploy is a free briefing for developers building with Claude, Python, Rust, and AWS. Every issue, I take the launch everyone's arguing about and run it on real code, cut the week's releases down to the ones that matter, and hand you the workflows, prompts and hacks I actually used. If you built an app with Lovable, Bolt or Cursor, there's a section for you too, with what to fix before you ship it. Short, useful, and a little sarcastic. No hype, no AGI prophecies. Just what changed, what works, and what to ignore.
