Hardly. Claude Code is basically just a wrapper around an LLM with a CLI.

Obviously it does some fairly smart stuff under the hood, but it's not exactly comparable to a large software project.

But to your point, that doesn't mean you can't vibe code some poorly built product and sell it. But people have always been able to sell poorly built software projects. They can just do it a bit quicker now.

I don't know why people keep acting like harnesses are all the same but we know they aren't because people have swapped them out with the same models and receive vastly different results in code quality and token use.
