I mean, it's a near daily experience for me that Claude tries to 'sudo pacman -S' some dependency multiple times before giving up and admitting that it's fundamentally impossible for it to run that command in the first place.

I could accomplish a lot more with those tokens if it just asked for the package to be installed.

Anthropic is not fully in control of the model.

but they are in control of the harness and could pay closer attention to where tokens leak on suboptimal turns there

What makes you think they aren't doing that?

You don't want to ban the model from running sudo. I have Claude working in a VM where it has (and needs) free rein, including sudo.

I mean - the models are impressive but also they're not perfect by any stretch. The fact that they're improving means there's room to improve
