I'm helping make some changes to a large, complex and very unfamiliar to me WordPress site. It's a perfect opportunity to try out Claude Code running against the new Claude 4 models.
It's going extremely well. So far Claude has helped get MySQL working on an older laptop (fixing some inscrutable Homebrew errors), disabled a CAPTCHA plugin that didn't work on localhost
, toggled visible warnings on and off several times and figured out which CSS file to modify in the theme that the site is using. It even took a reasonable stab at making the site responsive on mobile!
I'm now calling Claude Code honey badger on account of its voracious appetite for crunching through code (and tokens) looking for the right thing to fix.
I got ChatGPT to make me some fan art:
