Single-image review of the Scale AI Show HN browser game about Claude Code permission fatigue. Category: `play` — same new category started for cursor-camp-neal-fun. Body corrects the find's generic "AI agent" to name Claude Code specifically, per the game's own meta tags.

*One screen, one prompt, one creeping realisation.*

> A 60-second browser game by interns at Scale AI in which Claude Code (named explicitly) asks for permission to run each command. The prompts come faster than you can fully read; the reveal at the end depends on what you nodded through.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The page is plain: a CLI-styled prompt and a typing cursor. An AI agent — Claude Code, called out by name — starts running commands. `rm -rf node_modules` (you approve, fine). `git pull` (sure). `curl…` (uh, sure). The cadence is the trick. The prompts arrive at the rate of "Continue? y" muscle memory, faster than you can hold the previous command in your head.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The reveal is the punchline. By the time you notice — if you notice — your reflex `y` has authorised something you would absolutely not have approved had you been reading. The joke lands hardest for anyone who lives with an agentic terminal open in another window; the lesson is uncomfortably real, because permission fatigue is the actual failure mode of agent-assisted work and humans are bad at reading the 14th command of the day with the care they brought to the first.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
About 60 seconds to play; works on phone or desktop; free. The audience is narrow (Claude Code users specifically) and the resonance is strong — for anyone in the room, the reveal lands. A good thing to forward to the colleague who reflexively hits "Y."
