I was going on a train journey, wanted something to read and wondered if there was anything with the premise "someone secretly invented Claude Code before LLMs were a thing and used it as a secret superpower".

Then I thought I'd try asking Claude to write it, as an experiment. The prompt was a sentence or two with the given premise. This is the result.

Sharing it as a conversation piece. Is it any good? Are AI stories ethical? Are stories pointless without a real human behind them?
