Independent Development Diary: Claude Got My Account Banned Again

Today I went to the Immigration Bureau to apply for visa renewal. Every time I come here, I have to wait in line for a day. If I still want to stay later, I will consider changing my visa.

It has been less than a week since the last time Claude Code was blocked. The newly registered account was also blocked. I asked AI and said that it may be due to payment card problems. It is estimated that it was abused by the account dealer and the entire account segment was banned. So I plan to see if TrueMoeny can be activated virtually (it has been successfully activated, I don’t know how long it will survive this time). How do you activate it (forget about transfer, I have used it before, and the result is 502, and some will give you mixed models)?

The recently popular project Clawdbot has been popular, just like Manus, but I took a look at this thing and it is a thing built based on Claude Agent SDK + some MCP. I don’t understand why it is so popular, and it needs to be installed on your own machine to open all permissions. Doesn’t this mean that all the information on your computer is given to hackers? Just to check the weather on tg? Can't understand...

Let’s talk about the project

Friends who have read my articles know that I have recently been working on a course design similar to Duolingo. Previously, I designed about 6 levels, a total of 40 units, and each unit lasted about 3-5 class hours. But as I tested it, I found that the designed course was not suitable for learning to a certain level.

So I took a look at the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages), which is an internationally accepted grading system. I used this to judge my previous English classes. My English level is at B1, with a vocabulary of about 2000-3000.

So overall I hope that after studying 6 levels, I can reach the B1 standard. Then this time I redesigned the course and increased it to more than 90 units, and then scattered them into different levels according to different levels. However, the problem with this has caused my test cycle to be very long. All changes need to be tested locally. If there are problems, they will be tested again after modification, then tested again in the pre-release environment, and finally tested again in production. Sometimes when I'm too lazy to go online, I get caught by users and say there's a bug.

Later, I tried using the Agent mode of Atlas to let the AI do the questions on its own. If it can't solve the problem, it means there is a bug. After fixing it, continue running. It's just that this process is manual, and I don't know how to integrate it into the project.

There are currently more than 2,000 users, but there are only a few paying users. The conversion rate is much lower than the 2-5% in the general market. I have compared several models on the market. One is free for a certain period of time + payment to unlock all, and the other is a consumption mechanism similar to Duolingo. Free users consume love, and if they don’t want to wait, they pay.

Considering that the current TTS and AI calls are all costs, we may prefer the previous paid unlock model, otherwise the user base will be difficult to maintain. Now every day, users come to me and ask me when apps and mini programs will be available, whether they can add this, whether they can support other small languages, etc. It takes time to respond to these every day, so it is better to concentrate on serving a small group of users.

Lennybundle just gave me a one-year Posthog membership (I just migrated to GA4 some time ago), but it seems that the event support of GA4 is a little weak at present, and I can't pay well, so I plan to double-write and connect Posthog again. After all, I don't need to use it in vain.

If all the courses are completed, the next stage is APP and multi-language. We are still judging the difficulty of implementation. I personally prefer multi-language and plan to add support for the English version, but the changes will be relatively large.

Nothing special happens this week, just write casually.
