They didn't really hijacked anything. Firebird made sense coming from phoenix. It wasn't a good choice considering the database existed before but it wasn't really an hijack in the sense that both are significantly different product that trademarks wouldn't have clashed. It was just annoying when doing web searches (similarly to gemini the google AI product vs the protocol).
These days, at work, I need to support applications build on Azure and Power Platform. Both are a hot mess.
We get notifications that our APIM is down for at least 15min every weeks at random times.
Power Platform is just a "preview" mess, things break and are not functional.
I complained about it and basically was told to shut up, the industry is using them, so they must be right.
Why do you need to do it at the client side? You are leaking so much information on the client side.
And considering the speed of Claude code, if you really want to do on the client side, a few seconds won't be a big deal.
Depends what its used by, if I recall theres an `/insights` command/skill built in whatever you want to call it that generates a HTML file. I believe it gives you stats on when you're frustrated with it and (useless) suggestions on how to "use claude better".
Additionally after looking at the source it looks like a lot of Anthropics own internal test tooling/debug (ie. stuff stripped out at build time) is in this source mapping. Theres one part that prompts their own users (or whatever) to use a report issue command whenever frustration is detected. It's possible its using it for this.
