Descriptions:
Web Dev Cody and three collaborators—Super Combo Gamer, Catspur, and Ben Scott—spent one week building Automaker, a fully autonomous application-building tool powered by Anthropic’s Claude Code agent SDK. In this video, Cody announces the previously private repository is now public and walks through the project’s capabilities with a live demonstration.
Automaker accepts high-level prompts, autonomously generates a full feature specification, populates a Kanban board with backlog items, and iteratively builds out full-stack applications using Claude Code under the hood. The demo covers creating a recipe-tracking app from scratch: the tool generates an app spec, produces 20 features in roughly 30 seconds, and begins executing them autonomously. It supports custom starter kit templates—including a TanStack Start template—real-time agent output streaming, and per-project themes. Existing codebases can also be imported via any GitHub repo URL, which Automaker analyzes to infer project structure before generating features.
Cody notes the tool is still in beta, Electron builds are in progress, and users should understand that Claude Code has direct file-system access before running it. A free Discord community is open for contributors and early testers. The video also references Cody’s Agentic Jumpstart course, which covers Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini model selection (Gemini for UI, Opus 4.5 for planning), and full-stack deployment with Railway and PostgreSQL across more than 70 videos.
