> It's not good at keeping up with the standards and utilities of your codebase.

Not my experience.

You can instruct Claude Code to respect standards and practices of your codebase.

In fact I noticed that Claude Code has forced me to make few genuinely important things like documenting more, writing more E2E tests and tracking architectural and style changes.

Not only I am forcing myself to a consistent (and well thought styling), but I also need it later to feed it to the AI itself.

Seriously, I don't want to offend no one, but if you believe that AI doesn't make you more productive you've got skill issues in adopting and using new tools at what they are good at.



Yes, I'm forced to be a real senior dev now, rigid specs, documentation, enforced coverage. Was easier before just hiring really smart people that didn't have to have everything spelled out for them.
