Readit NewsNice to see!! I wrote a longer post about this: https://open.substack.com/pub/boliv/p/claude-code-usage-patt...
Not sure the complexity of your app but mine's pretty complex with many daily active users. One-shot rarely works unless it's a simple feature/chore and I tell CC exactly what to do, which functions to touch, and how (which defeats the purpose).
I mean, the grifters have started it. They grifted for way too much money without ANY plan on how to actually get money back to the investors. Including the dubious benefits, just promising a "quick fix".
That is a bit over the top, but the core statement kind of stands.
I'm the writer of the blog post. I don't sell ai courses, consulting, coaching, or anything like that. But I do use claude code to help me build my SaaS app as a bootstrapped solopreneur. I also sold an AI startup in early 2021, which I founded back in 2014 when the hyped term was "Big Data". I've been around a few hype cycles now..
My CLAUDE.md has references to other documentation
Like "for guidance on Go library selection refer to docs/go.md"
That way the main file stays compact.
subagents were not yet released at the time of my blog post
I agree. I remember a year ago some a submission on this forum by Sabrina where she was evaluating LLMs on SAT math problems. The post was called like “ChatGPT-4o vs. Math”. I thought it was pretty insightful, but now that post is deleted from her blog and it seems like the blog as a whole is leaning into attracting people who are nontechnical and want to use it to generate social media content. Weird vibe in the comments of her posts and videos too.
I migrated from beehiiv to substack a few months ago but haven't migrated some of my older posts
I didn't release it as open source or anything, just sharing. I don't want to take questions concerning it so I can focus on moving it forward.
Today's goal is to try to build self healing agents that automatically fix the problems they encounter so they only happen once, automating a manual process I successfully use.
Perhaps if that works out well, that is something releasable I can do in a real way as opposed to paste bin.
