Leverage Record: June 23, 2026

Twenty-six tasks. June 23, 2026 weighted to 19.2x leverage across 325.0 human-equivalent hours in 1015 Claude-minutes. Supervisory leverage closed at 187.5x.

Twenty-six tasks. June 23, 2026 weighted to 19.2x leverage across 325.0 human-equivalent hours in 1015 Claude-minutes. Supervisory leverage closed at 187.5x.

8.1 weeks of human-equivalent throughput in 16.9 hours of Claude wall-clock. The 200.0x ceiling came from Bootstrap vitest test coverage from zero for a metrics tracker UI React library; the 1.7x floor sat at Wire coverage measurement for a Mermaid-diagram TypeScript library.

About These Records
These time records capture personal project work done with Claude Code (Anthropic) only. They do not include work done with ChatGPT (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), Grok (xAI), or other models, all of which I use extensively. Client work is also excluded, despite being primarily Claude Code. The actual total AI-assisted output for any given day is substantially higher than what appears here.

Analysis

The day's leverage distribution matters more than the headline figure. The 200.0x ceiling came from Bootstrap vitest test coverage from zero for a metrics tracker UI React library; the 1.7x floor was Wire coverage measurement for a Mermaid-diagram TypeScript library. Tasks at the top of the distribution share a shape: tightly-scoped specifications, clear success criteria, and minimal integration ambiguity. The AI doesn't need to discover anything new; it executes against an explicit target.

Tasks at the bottom run differently. They're either bounded by review-heavy work where every step gets verified, or they involve ambiguity that demands several rounds of trial and adjustment. The factor is real and informative, not a failure mode.

The supervisory leverage figure (187.5x today) tracks something orthogonal to wall-clock leverage. It's the ratio of human-equivalent output to human prompt-writing time. It stays high even on lower-leverage days because supervisory minutes scale with task count, not with the human-hour estimate; a 20-minute task and a 4-hour task can both be specified in two minutes of human prompt-writing.

Across the 26 tasks, the day produced roughly 8.1 weeks of senior-engineer-equivalent throughput in 16.9 hours of model wall-clock. That ratio is the practical answer to the question of how much output a single operator can move per day when the model handles the execution and the operator handles the direction.
