They’re showing how easy it is to vibe code a port of the app. A motivated developer outside Discord could do the same and release OpenDiscord or whatever if they cared enough to want to mod the app that way.

Ahem there is also the option to check out competitors ;)

This is the way, LLMs are an enabler and force multiplier to help you build whatever interface you want on whatever protocol you have to reverse engineer.

Provide it the official client and point it at public api endpoints (or an LLM operated mitm proxy), set it to work to reimplement.

Some vibekiddie will reengineer this, and mod it.

How? Anthropic hard coded anti-reverse engineering instructions into Claude.

It may shock you to hear that there are other coding agents than Claude.

Hopefully they don't stop it from doing malware analysis. I've been using it to report malware C2s and it's a godsend for pulling apart the layers of crap they use.

Edit: A couple queries with it indicate it will still assist with malware analysis and considers it beneficial. Hopefully it stays that way.

Can’t see it on my end, the clanker still finesses IDAPython just fine.

Open models have no guardrails.
reply
This isn't universally true, and there's a lot of pressure to bake guardrails and moderation in: Mistral for instance went from one of the most unhinged to incredibly restrictive models with Mistral 4 Large release.

Several others have done similar to greater or lesser degrees in calendar 2026, but the pressure is there across the board to limit what the open models can do without modifications that could largely only be found locally and not from online providers.

...so just don't use Claude?

I thought Claude was the tool for the AI script kiddies?

love this term, knew instantly what it means

depends if they decide to use any kind of obfuscation here to protect "IP"
reply
They can just repackage the web app and mod that if all else fails.
reply
oh won't someone think of the discord mods!? If its too hard for them to mod, they won't have time to groom children.
reply
Mod as in modification, not moderation.
