Claude Haiku 4.5: the New Solo Dev Standard?

https://www.crafterslab.dev

So… yeah, let’s talk. Anthropic just dropped Claude Haiku 4.5 — and if you’re building solo, trying to actually ship with AI tools, this might be the new standard you’ve been waiting for. I put it through my real indie workflow: fast code review, doc digests, chaining agents, all the stuff that actually matters when you’re building alone.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what’s real about Haiku 4.5, where it fits for solo devs using Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex, and honestly… if this is finally the model you can bet your daily routine on. I’m talking lived experience, not hype — just what works (and what breaks).
If this resonated, check out crafterslab.dev. That’s where I share all my live workflows, indie app blueprints, Figma kits, agent systems, and a Notion workspace with real teamspaces like Swift Brain, Ops Lab, and the Playbook — basically, everything I wish I’d had when I started solo. The Discord’s open, the resources are growing, and the indie OS is evolving. If you’re tired of building alone, you’ll feel right at home.

So… yeah, like, subscribe, and let’s keep building together. Peace.
