Sorry for this long boring post but video encoding enthusiasts might find this one helpful information. And, it's an impressive set of circumstances. To recap quick, there was a strange dorito smear happening where the color was lifting off of image vertically, you can see it the most if you look at the top of the bend of the pipe on the tower to the left. It was bothering me and I had suspected TAA ghosting, SDFGI issues, codec issues and/or a NVENC bug. But, nothing we did would solve it. I went to bed and asked Claude to drill into it until it found a solution. Here it is for posterity (af...

I built Storybloq (previously Claude Story) for my own Claude Code workflow, and used Storybloq itself to build Storybloq. The `.story/` directory in the repo has tracked every ticket, issue, and session handover across the project's development, so the tool is its own longest-running test case. Sharing it in case it's useful. It's free and open source. The problem: every new Claude Code session forgets the last one. So you re-explain architecture, re-litigate tradeoffs you already settled, and the codebase drifts a degree at a time on long projects. Storybloq gives your repo a `.story/...

TL;DR: If your git commits mention "HERMES.md" (uppercase), Claude Code quietly stops using your Max plan and starts billing you at API rates. Anthropic's support acknowledged the bug, thanked me for finding it, and refused a refund. Apparently their AI safety principles don't extend to your wallet. **The story** I'm on Max 20x ($200/month). Today Claude Code started throwing: \> "You're out of extra usage. Add more at [claude.ai/settings/usage](http://claude.ai/settings/usage) and keep going." Weird, because my plan dashboard showed 13% weekly usage and 0% current session. 86...
