A multi-device preview Chrome extension built from one screenshot
Claude Fable 5.2 built a Chrome extension in an evening that keeps desktop and mobile previews in the same logical state, though its maker had to step in often.

The full story
A Chrome extension for previewing a site on several devices at once, which keeps each device in the same logical state rather than mirroring clicks, so a desktop menu and a mobile hamburger stay in step. Claude Fable 5.2 built it between 5:45pm and midnight from a screenshot of an existing tool and a paragraph on what bothered its maker.
Claude wrote all the code, tested it in headless Chrome and found a bug its maker would have missed: Chrome throttles off-screen frames, so animations on those devices never finished. It also listed what it had not checked.
The maker still had to step in: the first interface looked nothing like the screenshot, its first name was already taken, and it flagged 86 normal buttons as too small until the check was tuned.
